Development for the game has progressed well. While its clear the concept of keeping the game 2.5D is extended development time, we believe it is an important aspect for helping us learn more about game development for future projects. In that vein, development on the starting/hub area, The Potent Potioner, has progressed fairly well!

Dendrion’s Tower and Shop will serve as the home base for Emeryn’s Adventure. While concepts of the tower show it free-standing outside of the city, the concept has changed to include it on a “Market Street” within the town itself.
The first floor is the apothecary, Hyacinth is usually the man behind the counter. They’ve a greenhouse out back to grow some of their own ingredients. The second floor features their bedrooms and the Tower itself leads up to Dendrion’s Study and houses their large collection of tomes and artifacts.
