Castle Village World Map + Retro Castle Village (playable)
Hey everyone,
This is the layout of Castle Village's interior. I went through several designs until I was satisfied. I challenged myself to fit the entirety of the city into a single map file (155x156). It's 100% drawn to scale. The "Player" section with the small pixel bed are temporary and won't be part of the final design (obviously haha). Colors are not final. 2022-05-06 22:00:25 +0000 UTC View Post

A quick song I made for Retro Castle Village.

Hey everyone,
I've been drawing concept art for Castle Village and I wanted to showcase what I have made so far. I used an extremely limited color palette. All designs are not final.
Right now I'm planning the layout for the city and I will be sharing that sometime next week.

This is an unedited take of me playing a dungeon theme on a Steinway piano. I'm thinking the version I develop in FL Studio will have a mix of synths and bells.

This is an unedited take of me playing the Castle Village Theme on a Steinway piano. Whenever I get around to developing the soundtrack in FL Studio, I'll make it a little slower paced.

POLL: Marnie and Lewis

What do you all think of Lewis and Marnie officially dating and after several seasons they get married? I thought up of a three-part event I think could be fun. The conditions for this to occur though are steep:

Beta Update #1
The SVE download link on the pinned beta post has been updated. This update mainly features a new area, dynamic dialogue and schedules for Lance, 6 and 8 heart events for Lance, and gives community center route players the option to take over Aurora Vineyard. No changes were made to the SVE farm map files (yet).
I really wanted to get this out a couple days ago, but I got a bit carried a...
POLL: Should Aurora Vineyard be fixable in the CC route
I've gotten some feedback lately about players wanting to refurbish Aurora Vineyard in the CC route. As of right now in the 1.14 beta, Aurora Vineyard can only be fixed in the Joja route. I can see Apples giving players the option to take it over once they are at 10 hearts. They would move to Junimo Woods, so they'd still be in the game and easily accessible using Enchanted Gro...
