0.3.4b - and sad news everyone...

Hello guys, Tjord here with new version of Dark Lord Rises. As promised, this is bugfixing update, and since recent release had surprisingly little gamebreaking bugs, this is only minor update. Or it should be...

Unfortunately, after much thought I decided to put the game development on hiatus. Yes, one of those hiatuses that are highly likely to last indefinitely.

 "Why Tjord, why would you do this?! You're tearing me apart, Tjord!" I hear you saying already.

Well, reason is simple: I kind lost my drive when it comes to developing the game. While I'm decently satisfied with the story, limitations of RPG Maker continue to frustrate me and limit enjoyment I get from my work. Other thing, erotic side of the game, instead of being integral part of my vision, kinda became an unwanted side and a chore to write/set up.

For all those years I've been tempted to set aside this project and start something new, but I've fought those notions. But not this time. I've decided to start something new, something better thought off than TDLR (which was, let's be honest, my first, amateurish attempt to make a game).

To sweeten the deal for you, I'm making what I think is unprecedented move: 0.3.4b is UNENCRYPTED version of the game. Yes, you read this right! Those of you, who want to and have RPG Maker VX Ace can continue the story or make changes you want (like, fixing typos :D). I don't mind if you use those few of my assets for your games or whatever.

Just, please don't go posting skeleton of the game and claiming it's your own. I'd be quite sad to see that.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed\ will enjoy The Dark Lord Rises for what it is. See you again!
