LostForest 09/21/25 2:22:46 AM #1:	I've been working on this game for the past 7 years, and I'm still about a year and a half out from my estimated release date, BUT I'm excited since I finally made it far enough to start showing it off publicly! https://youtu.be/7MWy5YN0lO4?si=NY-mPjDw4iWWyv12 It's up on Steam as well, if you'd like to read up on it or check it out! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3975190/Dracanea_The_Ragtag_Regalia Work has been really slow-going because I'm doing it all by myself, aside from a few commissions for art assets/animations. Plus I've been working full-time at my day job as well. But I'm proud of the work I've done, and am pretty confident I'll have it done by Summer 2027. If anyone was interested in subscribing on Youtube or other socials, that would be super appreciated! I know I don't post much on CE anymore, but I still wanted to pop in and show it off to everyone. --- http://www.dracanea.com NB, curry fan, Top 10 lister, indie dev, gym hitter, musician, et al. <cite>LostForest posted [p:986484340] in I've been ...
