I really hate to bump this thread with bad news like this, but it's better to own up my mistakes rather than stay silent. Sorry, the demo will be postponed. It's just not at the level of polish I'd like it to be. I wanna take my time to get it right...

It's a-okay to delay the demo and i'm deeply sorry for you having real life situations. I hope things would go fine and you have my support!

Quite right: prioritise your health and that of your family. No need to apologise for that.

Darkadia (and we) can wait. It'll be done when it's done.

I hope the health situation improves for you and your family. Wishing you all the best.

A wise decision. I look forward to seeing this project especially, but only when it wants to be seen. It looks beautiful.

If survival horror games have taught us anything, it is the importance of managing one's health. :wink:

Whilst the reasons are sound - Health comes first - I am just going to remain satisfied thinking you are using the time off to bake the best lightmaps in the world for this.

So, all is good. ;)

It's not, but I'm going to focus on finishing up Disdain first (which is a much less experimental kind of game to create, so the path to completion is much more clear with Disdain).

Also, engine technology moving forward, with VKDoom, will allow me to do things I wasn't able to do with GZDoom - it would be smarter to wait until I get better tools to fully realize what I wanted to do with Darkadia (within the limits of a Doom engine ecosystem, without completely ditching it for Unreal Engine or Godot or whatever)
