Dev-Blog #9 - Achievements, Engine (nearly) upgraded, Three new Characters, New ETA

Typing with Jester

Typing with Jester is a typing game with a 8-Bit Retro fourscale style. Imagine those classic handhelds had a keyboard and a game like this. Sounds awesome right?

Typing with Jester is being made in GameMaker Studio and the new version is about to release. During the GameMaker Studio 2 beta i ported the game to the new engine but there is a bug with GLSL EL shaders... So until they fixed it there wont be any builds in the new engine sadly... Three new Clowns joined the Ensemble: Grandjester, King Clown himself and Muscleclown, those will be unlockables for Endless mode although they arent unlockable right now because you cant fulfill the requirements yet. All achievement icons were created and implemented, but most arent unlockable yet, because obvious reasons. Also achievements won't be activated unless the game hits early access. Those are the final achievement icons so i hope you like them :) [img]http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/25486906/8c08d39a07e2f58dbf2a222aa510aa6f24751768.png[/img] The first version of the character selection was implemented. It will be updated in one of the next versions. Right now endless mode is the same as the Alpha Gameplay stage except missing story textboxes. Recently i made a twitter account, if you are interested in the game make sure to follow it [url=https://twitter.com/TypingJester]here[/url]. ETA now is 2017, i had alot of stuff to take care off this year so sadly there was not as much time as expected to develop the game. Feel free to follow the [url=http://steamcommunity.com/games/496520]official group[/url] to stay up to date about the game's development. Also [url=https://trello.com/b/tZYblod4/typing-with-jester-roadmap]vote on the roadmap for future patch contents![/url] The current version is 0.1.28
