I'm looking forward to seeing my console in action in there too. That's why I always have an eye out for projects that use Lua. ;)

Aaand we did it! It's been Greenlit and we're so happy  ;D
SFML is starting to have a real squad of games on Steam, which is great.

Time for a new update!

As I took this month off to finish the game, things are getting closer to release and I'm posting an update that was already long overdue.

Chapter IV is done and the only thing missing are a few levels, quests and the FINAL BOSS. Splitting the story into three paths with unique  spells, quests and even levels slowed the development process a bit down but what's a RPG without freedom of choice.



I'm also happy to announce that the team of active devs grew from 1 to 2, with a new composer: Matthew Harnage. You can take a look (a listen?) at the tracks for Cendric here:
https://soundcloud.com/matthewharnage/sets/cendric-original-soundtrack

There are still some tracks in the game from the main dev (Ironbell), but I really don't want to ruin the experience of the game with programmer music. At this point, I have to say however that the SFML game Zeran's Folly has the best programmer music I've ever heard. But he, not everyone is this talented *cough



Before the release on Steam, a closed beta will take place, approximately starting in the first or second week of October. Issues will be reported on Github, so you'll need an account there if you want to participate. Like a kickstarter, the closed beta will have rewards for reporting bugs, exploits, grammar mistakes etc. Unlike a kickstarter, I don't want your $$ but your saved game. Playing through the game will already grant you a Steam key for the final version, so it's worth it. I'll post more info about this soon for the people who'd like to participate.

Registrations for the closed beta are open!
http://cendric.ch/closed-beta

As already mentioned before, Cendric will have a closed beta that will start on the 9th of November and go until the 30th November. If you're interested in getting fresh builds (one a week for three weeks), register. You can also earn points by reporting bugs.

This is an open source GitHub beta. It's an experiment, but we'll see how it goes. It would be great so see some of you guys participating. But, as always -> the beta will spoil you and you can also wait for the final version of course.

Have a great day. I'm going to sleep now.

Thank you! There's already a lot of people who registered. I wonder how I will deal with this. Also, I exhibited the game at a game show in Switzerland and people loved it. There were also quite a lot who asked about how it's implemented and the code. I referenced you :3



So thank you my SFML team.

The requirements look like some placeholders you didn't rewrite: 64 bit only and listing of DirectX requirements for sounds and graphics and Windows 10 and Intel i7 recommended. Doesn't sound right.

Oh and you should definitely sell your game on itch.io (it's made in Lua/MoonScript! :P) or somewhere else DRM free too for people who prefer that.

You're right, I didn't really check the requirements, but mainly because I don't know the minimal requirements. For the 64bit: I never compiled the game for 32bit but I'd adjust it as soon as I upload a 32bit build.

Well, the code is open source, people who want it DRM free can just compile it. But I'll definitely consider itch.io as well, so thanks for the hint.
