As the year is progressing, we are back with an update about our love project! The start of the year was especially eventful for us, as we moved to a new flat. This took up most of January. But now that everything is in order, we are back to developing Noodle Party in our free time!

Since the last post, we've finished our first mini game, created a common UI structure for all the future ones, and finalized all the related systems! We are really happy how everything turned out, especially the UI. We think it's really good to look at. Simple yet informative.

We made some adjustments to our menu system based on feedback. As you may know, we decided to do a rather unconventional menu system that is in 3D space. While it's much more interesting than a conventional 2D system, this may not be as straight forward for some.
We feel that the improvements definitely helped in this regard.

In the coming months, we are targeting to finish the "special item systems". ( Formerly known as gems. ) These are items that one can gather during the Tower Challenge mode. Later to be used in one's turn to help if there is a tough situation.

Also, we are working on other mini games and adding more questions to the quiz pool!
We will be back with an another update soon!

Dear noodle friends,

It's time for an update about Noodle Party!
This summer was pretty challenging for us because of several things.

First, the main goal was to reach a stage where the game's main systems are in place. Also, for the Tower Challenge mode to be functionally ready. We're very happy to report that this goal has been achieved! 🎉
We invited close friends to test the game and played many rounds. We received positive reviews and gained valuable insights on where to improve. ( Mostly UI stuff. )

The next difficulty we faced on our journey was the funding of the project. You may know that Noodle Party has a tiny team of 1,5 developers. (One full-time and one part-time developer).
Around July we reached a crossroads. We had to raise funds for our full-time developer to stay on the project. So we decided to start a Kickstarter campaign so we can keep her on the project.
Unfortunately, our small community could not reach the minimum goal of funding the project. Never the less, we're glad we created the campaign because it was a hell of a lot fun to make!

So what does the unsuccessful campaign mean for Noodle Party? 🤔 Since both of us can only work on the project in our free time, the development will slow down a bit.
We wish to work on the project as much as we can and finish it with all our love! 😍 Updates will be delivered here and also on our social platforms as before. Stay tuned!

Regards,
The noodle party team 😽
