The new prototype release is here!

I'm super excited to announce that, as of today, the new prototype of the game has launched! Complete with the .NET rewrite and Windows/Linux* support, the prototype is now in a better state than it was a year ago.

Let's talk about [uinatu:s]*.

The project's future became uncertain when 2024 got started due to ongoing litigations with Apple and waning development interest. Eventually, I realized that, if I wanted to continue developing Indexing Your Heart, Windows support would be mandatory, if not just for my own sake.

Something new, something old

It feels like it's been such a long time since the last update I've posted about Indexing Your Heart as a project. Suffice to say, a lot has changed with the game since the last prototype build I published back in April of this year, and it's about time I state where the project is headed.

I’m pleased to announce the next update to the prototype, which includes some great quality-of-life improvements that I’d like to mention here.

A new prototype has landed!

It’s with great pleasure to announce the first update to the prototype version of the game! I’ve spent a lot of time reworking some core aspects of the game that I’d like to briefly share.

Big news - the prototype has landed!

Hey, all! It is with great pleasure that I am announcing the launch of the very first prototype for Indexing Your Heart today. Finally, after a year of planning, replanning, and development, a tiny prototype to show what this game’s potential is has finally landed.

Good news - I’ve made up my mind

It’s been a week or so since the previous devlog where I raised a few important questions about the current trajectory of Indexing Your Heart, and I’ve been hard at work in terms of answering those questions.

The revisit isn’t always nice the third time around…

It’s been nearly a few months since the last time I’ve posted an update to this project where I mentioned some minor changes being made as the game progressed. Now that it’s nearly the end of August, things haven’t really changed. What’s going on?

Did Indexing Your Heart die?

It’s been quite a long while since I started developing Indexing Your Heart, feeling confident on where the project would go. With a story nearly ready for revisions and a general idea for the gameplay, I felt that I could get the game done in a reasonable amount of time.

Announcing Indexing Your Heart

Hello, and welcome to the first official developer log for Indexing Your Heart, a visual novel and RPG hybrid game! I'm really excited to share with you all the culmination of several game prototype ideas over the course of a few months, and how I plan to shape this into a proper game.
