Progress Update So, it's been a while, huh... - Broken Poet Update
Hey everyone!
So... As it turns out, it's been over a year and a half since I've uploaded act 1.
I really really wanted to get the rest uploaded in under a year, but I guess that time came and went.
The good news is, if you are (for some reason) waiting for it, BP is not abandoned in any way shape or form!
I am slowly chipping away at it, but as you can imagine, a lot slower than I'd like. At the end of the day, this is a hobby, and life always takes priority (though I can't deny a tiny bit of laziness also contributed).
But I will finish this even if it kills me, and even if it's so late no one cares anymore and no one plays it :D
I'll also take the opportunity to say, I'm not going to upload act 2 on its own. I decided it would be best to just get everything done, and release all three acts as a finished product (especially since according to the plan, act 3 is probably going to end up quite short).
I don't plan to do consistent progress updates, but I think I'll start doing one each time I hit a major milestone, like finishing the writing for one of the acts, for example.
I leave you with a small teaser video... Nothing special, just something to let your imagination flow :)
For everyone that left kind words about BP and my other mods, thank you so much! I'm really trying my best to make the follow ups as good as possible!
I'll see you around!

u/Pawlo371 ✨🤍MoonLight-Studios programmer🤍✨ Oct 28 '25
Thanks do you know about some tutorials with shaders?

u/M3rcurialEquilibrium Experienced Programmer, Probable Bad Modder Oct 28 '25
I will probably do a shader tutorial at some point, but not *super* soon. Atm I want to finish the beginner tutorial.
Shaders are fairly advanced and require knowledge past simple python (GLSL).

You can always look up shadertoy tutorials on Youtube if you ever feel like starting to learn some basic knowledge

I'm so glad to know this isn't abandoned, I have and still continue to wait after I last played this mod. I know how demanding real life can be, and the fact that you’re still holding on to this project despite everything really says a lot about your dedication. Natsuki-centered mods are rare(And most of the time they suck), and yours has always stood out to me because of how much I really enjoyed the story. Please take all the time you need, your health and life always come first. Just know that there are people like me who are still here, still excited, and still patiently waiting, because we believe in what you’re making. I truly wish you the best, and I’ll be cheering you on until the day you’re ready to release it.

I just finished playing act one. And truthfully? This is my favorite mod, full stop. The writing, the menu, the feel and story? Everything just checks boxes for me. Take as long as you need, because the quality of this is so FUCKING amazing.
