Level 2 Complete! Level 3 Complete!? Level 4 Almost!

It's a Wonderful Friday!

The Shack Keeper is not sure what he added to the coffee last weekend but levels 2,3 are done!, level 4 is more than half there! Can you say ahead of schedule? Trying not to Jinx myself but it feels pretty good. 

Currently trying to balance out the dungeons growing in size at a fair rate. Smaller to more complex and large as the game progresses. I am sure I will have to make some changes once events are programmed, along with common battle encounters and I can test levels to see if Guy is leveling up at the right rate.
Even with a large assortment of tiles to play with usually I will end up choosing ones that need to be tweaked here and there. In the end the level design and special prop additions couldn't be going smoother, truth be told, it's less about whats in the coffee, and more to do with how much time was spent on creating bits and pieces for levels along with 70+ tiles during the first 2 months of U.F.F. creation.

For this weeks U.F.F. Taste:
Here's a look at a piece from each new level:





With that said Once last Monday hit all Hell broke loose. The Father of The Shack Keeper Had a heart attack and ended up in the Hospital. I'll spare you the details but there wasn't much sleeping happening this week. Until finally last night. Looks like he is going to make a full recovery. 
Currently preparations are in progress to make the long journey from the Melon Shack to see him along with my Mini Shack Keeper, He needs his Grandpa. 

With the trip taking place next weekend it's hard to predict where we will be with the game, but I'll keep you posted.

Cheers, 
The Shack Keeper
