Small update.

So you may have noticed I've been extremely quiet lately, I've been working my arse off on some very specific tasks, number one, which is the big one, is I've been studying how to do saving and loading code within my games which has been taking a lot longer than I thought it would as ever is the case with games development, however I'm very close to finishing all of this now and once It's done it will mean I'll be able to get content done a lot faster as I'll have all my code on hand ready to be used in any new games.

I have also hardly ever posted anything on the Jewellery side of things, that's not because I've abandoned it! There was another project I was doing which is a box clasp bracelet, I decided to do this as a showcase piece and that took a hell of a long time as well but the finished product I think is worth it, now these are just crappy photos from my phone and I'll deliver higher resolution ones later but this should give you an idea of what I've been working on with the Jewellery side of things.

I'll be sure to post an update to let you know once my game finally releases but I'm making a lot of progress now and after this the time between release dates for games in general should be a lot shorter now that I've just about gotten the insides of Unity figured out, that damn saving and loading code has been a nightmare to figure out which is why everything was taking longer than I thought it would.










For those who don't know, a box clasp is a type of clasp that clicks together when you push in the tongue and connects together various Jewellery so it can also be done for necklaces and so on, it's very precise and technical to do but I'm pretty happy with the result, I'll be sure to post more gameplay footage of The Rabbit and the moon as well which will show the saving and loading in action and I also have another game that I want to announce at some point but I think I want to make some progress with it before I really go into detail on it. I don't want to leave such large gaps between updates like I've been doing so far because of how long I've been having to learn everything.

You may also notice even in these photos that I have also been learning to use an engraving tool and I engraved some leaves onto the blanks of the bracelet and the clasp itself, I have also been learning how to melt down silver bars from scrap metal but that's something else I'll show later. I'm not sure whether I can sell these tiny ones that I made because they're only .925 bars and very small however it may be something I'll look into in the future and maybe I'll even engrave my own boar symbol into them once I can start casting my own fine silver bars professionally.
