Greeting blacksmith! Welcome to the development log of Smith’s Chronicles, July 2026 edition. There are plenty of development updates and our event we can share with you.

Development Updates

Townfolks Home Interior

Home decoration is often linked to the personality of the person who lives in it. This month, we’re still working on the interior of one of the NPCs, our lovely childhood friend Evelyn's home. 

New Quest Complete Animation

Completing quests needs to be satisfying. One aspect to reach that satisfying feeling is animation. We’re adding some animation to the complete quest UI.

More Decoration Items for your House Interior

As we added the decoration feature, we need to add more choices of items to make it worthwhile for players to express their creativity.

New Graphic Option Settings

In this era of memory scarcity, even though our game is not graphically intensive, we added graphics options to accommodate various device specs, from potato to high-end PC, so players can choose the settings that work best for their device.

Discord Playtest

To make sure our work is not biased by our own assumptions, we need input from our potential players. Not only that, even though we always test our game, there will always be some bugs we did not encounter during our session. To make sure we avoid that, as this devlog is published, we are running our public limited playtesting session. You can still register here until July 31st (Today!):

That’s all for this month's update! Hopefully, by reading this, you’re looking forward to the future of Smith’s Chronicles. If you have any feature suggestions or input, please let us know by commenting on your ideas in the comments section below and discussing them with the developer by joining our Discord Server!
