Hi all.
First of all I would like to thank everybody who expressed their closeness and solidarity to our team and to me personally.
As you probably have read in some of my posts the situation is not the most cheerful, but we are doing well. We are all working from home, the New Game ( codename : NG ;-) ) is shaping up well. We release a major update for DieYoung today with French and German languages fully supported, an improved Russian translation, several graphic fixes including a brand new effect for dynamic water and sea ( we rebuilt it from scratch ) and much more.
In short ... we continue to do our best to carry out the development of our projects and to always offer you the most advantageous offers on indiegala.
Anyway, this is my 16th quarantine day and frankly, I can't wait for summer.
But here we go with update notes:
New Dynamic Water
The sea and in general all water surfaces in DieYoung never satisfied us. Therefore we adopted a new approach and did the whole thing again. the new water material has new water as well as an underwater effect and reacts to daylight.
