Annoucing Tales of Unity Reboot
Hi hey there!
Been a while, quite a while actually.
I figured I finally had enough news to chair to warrant poking everyone about it, so here goes.
First and foremost, I have gotten back to work a few weeks back, and as the title subjects, it's regarding the Reboot of ToU.
Now what does "Reboot" implies?
When I took the time to check Tales of Unity's current state, I see bugs, I see renders that CLEARLY need a good coat of paint, I see a story that is all over the place that doesn't know how to reach it's goals.
I hold a lot of love for ToU, but I can't work on it in it's current state, it's too... Disconnected from my vision.
The reboot has a few sets of goal in mind:
Cleaner and more unique character models
A more interesting and focused storyline, focused a LOT MORE on mysteries, intrigues, than on magic.
Develop a proper character chart for all of my characters, and take the time to let them evolve proprely in a setting that makes sense for them.
Do not worry, the vast majority of principal characters will be part of the Reboot, especially the main cast.
I joined the current reworked version of Vanessa, Chumee and Elise in the post.
Tales of Unity will also get a new name, fitting of it's reboot, which I must still ponder, but for now, I'll refer to it as "ToU:R".
I will be transparent, this rework is also born out of necessity, I tried for two years to get a stable jobs and failed miserably, no matter what, I'm good at writing stories, it's what I enjoy, what gave me purpose from 2019 to 2022 / 2023.
Therefore I am excited to share Monthly updates again.
Alongside that, I will rework the Patreon tiers, as I mentioned, I am in a dire financial situation which forces me to be more conscious about what I promise people that support me.
I am still Ironing out the details.
I plan on providing Weekly news, progress, Behind the scenes for Patrons of any tier as well, so if you're interested in more details regarding the progress of the Reboot, your few coins would greatly help me.
Now I'll address the ehm, second Elephant in the room.
Project: Jericho.
The game is still in the late state of it's first version, and It will get it's 0.1 sooner than later, even if just to provide players with a taste of the writing I have planned ahead for ToU:R.
I shall come next week for patrons with more news, and next month for free followers!
Take care, thank you for being here, for sticking around despite the long absence.
