[Normal/Misc/Exploration][KS+] Advena

Still looking good and still looking forward to this. I'm sure this will get me back into Knytt Stories from the looks alone.

Don't have much to add, just wanted to say that this looks really, really good so far.  Definitly looking forward to it!

Hey! Still working on this, although progress has slowed for a number of reasons. Still thinking end of 2013 for the release.

Here's a new screenshot to enjoy. Yes those are lava flows and yes they kill you when touched.

It's nice how you made it that you die when you touch the falling lava, but the background is a bit bland. If you could maybe make the background a bit more interesting, then that would be great.

I have some unfortunate news, everyone. Due to circumstances, this project is going on an indefinite hiatus. I won't say it's completely 100% abandoned but it is very unlikely that I'll ever get a chance to return to this and continue work on it. I sincerely apologise to everyone, especially those who were really looking forward to the level's completion.

That's super sad, Purple Ink. Do these circumstances mean you'll be ceasing knytting entirely, or does it just relate to this level?

Could you upload what you have made so far of the level?

I hope it isn't because you're sick...

The Tree of Life was such a promising first level, I had high hopes for this one. Oh well, these things happen. I wish you the best of luck in future endeavors.

That's too bad. After so much work on tilesets and so on... 
Won't you release at least some β version ?

Always sad to see this happen.  You could just pull it out a few times a month for however long it takes to finish... but I can understand wanting to be free from a project too.  I've had to do it a few times.  But hey, I also haven't worked on my current projects in 4 months. 

Good news, everyone! I'm technically still alive.

A lot has happened since my last post when I cancelled Advena (and all KS work). Things have changed and I'll now be able to continue work on Advena! \o/ In fact, I've already made some more progress, finishing up a couple areas, adding a new tileset, and completing another secret area. So Advena is back on, expect another update (with screenshots) in the near future! I suspect it'll still be another month or so before the level will be finished.

This is the best thing I've heard today ! Good luck with finishing it.

Look at this. It is best motivation for any KS Level maker:

I just can't wait to play this

 

Even if that month you say stretches like taffy into three months, I will still be looking forward to this release. 

Stretching out into a couple months may actually happen. Still a lot to do before the level is finished. But I'm working on it every day. Already finished a couple more sections since my last post. New screen shots on the next update.
