REPLANTED - Jeremy Does Stupid Stuff
Upon taking a lookback at the game as it stands right now, on my hard drive, and my initial plans for the game, and the plans I have now. I came to a conclusion.
This game was not designed to be developed like this.
For the past 2ish years, I've been balancing school with game development, and recently I've also been tackling other passion projects that are simply more fulfilling, easier, and of higher quality for me.
But that in no way means that I want to stop developing REPLANTED.
It just means that I need to change how I'm developing it.
As of now, REPLANTED has been put on an indefinite delay, until both it, and REPLANTED Part II are ready for release within the same year.
The effects of this delay will be huge, it's likely that REPLANTED will be put 2 years off from it's current planned release date, but it's what's right. If you didn't already know this, REPLANTED is part 1 of a two part 2 duology. It was always meant to complement another game, which will be more unique, linear, and in my opinion, better. I realized that if I were to continue working on replanted like the way I had been, there would've easily been a 2-3 year wait in-between the parts, which I did not want to happen.
I want to be more eased out when working on the games, and I don't want to rush out either of the games (which was probably going to happen if I were to continue working on the games with the mindset of "the release date should've been a year ago, finish this immediately." and "don't leave people waiting too long."). REPLANTED as it stands, was going to be a little rushed if it came out when I wanted it to come out, so the delay will hopefully give me more time to work on it, and really create the REPLANTED that I want you all to see, instead of the one you were going to get, on the topic of Part II, REPLANTED Part II was planned from the beginning, but design work only really began in 2022, and I haven't spent much time at all working on the game as an actual tangible exe.
I will also be taking a step back from marketing the game like normal.
This means I won't be saying anything about it until the games are essentially almost finished. This is mainly because I don't want to be advertising games that won't be out for a while. As it stands, look at it this way: If I'm not dead, and this page doesn't say the game is cancelled, the game is being worked on. If I'm dead, or the page says the game is cancelled, the game is cancelled. But I doubt that second one will happen before release.
TL;DR: REPLANTED will still release, but it's being delayed an unknown amount of time to release next to REPLANTED Part II, which was planned the entire time, but only began actual development work recently. It's not cancelled, it'll be out when it's out. Don't expect any more news until then.
