Re: Punts on Dogs (or other pack animals)
Dog carrying a punt makes about as much sense as player character somehow stowing the same (presumably 2-3 meter long) watercraft into his bag of holding and then running through thick spruce forest while wielding a bow and arrow. Or a bull carrying a 5 meter wooden log. The game's stowage system is rudimentary, but until (if ever) we get a detailed one featuring frames, cordage, leather straps, bags etc. I don't see reason to touch it. In more detailed system, I suppose the punt could be tied to some kind of light wooden frame secured on the animal/player and is being dragged behind the animal/character.

German Shepherd Dog Sprite
Hey all, working on a German Shepherd sprite change for the dog icon. I know it's obviously not possible for this breed to be in the setting, but I love my own GSD and seeing his likeness in game brings me joy. Sharing it here in case anyone is interested in it. Let me know what you guys think! January 08, 2022, 08:51:10 PM |

The 30th jubileum, 47th birthday, and sort of a year off
This year, in 2022, we are celebrating the 30th Jubileum of UnReal World. The game was first released in the summer of 1992, so the 30-year milestone will be reached this summer. Now what will this special year of celebration bring upon us, and the game? When it comes to coding and development, I will be taking it real easy. It is likely that we'll see some updates to the game, but mostly I'll be devoting my time for variety of other things. So I'll kind of celebrate the 30 years of development by taking a year off from the usual coding flurry. This also allows me to better contemplate on the future of the game as there some challenging overhauls in our sight. One is moving to higher resolution and modern aspect ratio. The year is early, and these thoughts are scattered, so more news on this front will follow later on. But yes, it is truly so that I will take a year off from the usual, practical, hands-on development. Planning, brainstorming and a little something easy paced remains, though. Nevertheless, during this year of celebration we will be bringing you some recreational content from the North, out and away from the development chambers. What it will be exactly remains to be seen, but I'm sure this year off will bring along many occasions, incidents, experiments or artistic projects to share or publish. There are some ideas bubbling under already. On this thursday, 27th of January, it will be my 47th birthday. I started working on UnReal World at the age of 15 and two years later, at the age of 17, the first version was released to the public. Now the 30th Jubileum, or 47th birthday, may feel like an occasion to offer me a drink or something, and for that purpose I quickly created "buy me a coffee" page. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/SamiMaaranen It's a simple support channel I've been asked to allow even earlier. Now it's up and will remain so at least for this year. I'll reserve the right to decide the drink to buy with your support  , but big cheers anyway! (And surely the regular donations page also works for gifting some squirrel hides.) So these are the news to start this year with. Feel free to comment or ask if something comes to your mind. Yours, Sami (UnReal World creator)  The developer is currently out the office ...  He's skiing in the woods following two elks...  He will be back occasionally and eventually.

Going with the flow
Well, hi there everyone! It's been a while, and time to cheer you up with a few pictures from the real world. I visited Erkka the last weekend and we refreshed ourselves by going with the springtime flow. The flow also lead us to playing and recording a piece of primitive music. The song is well in the post-production phase in my devel... err... mixing chambers and will be released as a short music video showing more footage in the vein of these stills. After a quite long pause in this kind of recreational primitive arts it was such a good flow that we found and followed.     May 12, 2022, 10:47:06 AM |

Linen undershirt and bear fur shirt vs Bastard sword
Started a new toon in a spring, rolled surprisingly high stats and weight. Chose very easy and pumped Axe to 98% from get go. Harvested 2 bears and 3 reindeer by end of Swidden. Went to shop for some nets and got robber quest.. ick. Sure, whatever, I'll do it. Lost 3 of 5 party members, hired them all from close to robbers and far from my planned cabin#1. Took an arrow in the leg. 3 of the 1st seen robbers received broadheads. 2&3 died from thorax hits. And last (#6) robber swung bastard sword in the character's face. From fallen, 2 remaining companions knocked him around and dog tore out his neck. Asking the grievously wounded companion how he's doing after the battle: "Been worse"

Greetings from a grove
Greetings! As you may know I'm spending sort of a year off from coding and concentrating more on the real world stuff. But the absence from the development chambers doesn't mean a radio silence. I'm happy to post a little news and photo feeds occasionally to stay in touch with You adventurers out there, and that's what people have wished for too. So here we go ... I recently had a minor accident with my right hand and now need to keep a cast for a month, but that's not stopping the roaming in the woods. Hehe, you know this from the game too - the many activities might be slower, but doable. So here's a photo greetings from one beautiful May day in the grove forest. These woods are half an hour walk away from UnReal World development chambers. This is a very special place since there are lot's of conifer forests to see here in Finland - as you may have noticed in the game too - but this kind of grove like leaf tree habitats are more rare.        And by the way, if peeks into these 2022 real world endeavours is your cup of coffee I'm building up a habit of more regular posts at my buymeacoffee page: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/SamiMaaranen It's kind of like an alternate media channel to see and support not the game development, but the game developer's lifestyle. Or whatever. Take care everyone, -Sami (UnReal World creator, gap year adventurer) May 30, 2022, 09:03:17 PM |

Re: Forum having issues?
Quote Yes, it is persisting for me as well as of this post. My desktop version of Firefox doesn't complain, but Chrome on Android does. Well, but as ineedcords reasons, this is a service provider level issue. We will try to sort this out sooner instead of later. July 12, 2022, 09:51:19 PM |
