#32

Hallo all! As expected, February was a busy month for the red panda, but he's seen it through and we anticipate he'll have more time on his hands to write during March now that he's laid a few other matters to rest. We've not got much else to report, so with that being said, we've assembled the releases for the past month below - we hope you enjoy them!   CURSEd #32: The Debt Comes Due
Dare does some catching up with Kent, and Whisper comes to regret spying on the Administrator.   Dreaming Draught #17: Liquefaction
A draught that gives new meaning to the phrase 'living waters'.   Dreaming Draught #18: Bubble Hiccup
The Shirley Temple of Dreaming draughts.   Valiant #43: Phobos
The Valiant rookies visit the Phobos Chamber - what was once a rite of passage for the Challengers.     And if you'd like to start from the beginning, the link to Valiant: Season 2 is below!     Stay frosty,

Hallo all! January's flown by, and has been somewhat unforgiving with all the changes that come with a new year. February is also promising to be difficult, and the red panda is doing his best to hang in there and make it through. As with the prior updates, you can expect his prosiac output to be diminished for the time being, with the hope that at some point this year it'll return to what it once was. With that all being said, we're happy to bring you the releases for the past month - we hope you enjoy them!
  Dreaming Draught #15: Furball
A draught for those that need to add a bit of fluff to their lives.
  CURSEd #32: Turkey Bacon Club
On their way back to the HQ, the Peacekeepers assess their defeat and recent events in the galaxy.
  Covenant #39: The Deals of the Demon Lord
Now traveling aboard the Dandelion Drift, Jayta takes the opportunity to reconnect with her brother, while Raikaron navigates the many agendas of the groups that have an interest in the Drifters.
  Dreaming Draught #16: Frostep
Should you wish to go walking on water, this might just hit the spot, if you can handle the chill.

Just finished article #32, so I managed to meet my Diamond badge goal! Yay! Most of my SC24 articles have been pretty short this time, but I've been pretty busy working on my mapmaking app and taking care of real life stuff. I think these articles will provide some hooks for future stories and articles, though, so I'm fine with them not being fully worked out yet. I might work on a couple more prompts, but I don't have any good ideas for the prompts I didn't write, at least so far, so I may not. I think I will do a map for Sunrise Point, the town I wrote an SC24 article for, using my mapmaking app. The app is working pretty well, but performance on maps over about 2K resolution isn't good (on my desktop computer, which is pretty capable), so I need to work on that. I hope I can improve the performance, but given the way I designed the app, that might be challenging. I am hoping to match the performance of Wonderdraft, but as of now, my app is much slower for large maps. I think by the end of August or so, I will open up the Github repository so people can download the source, build it, and run it. Downloadable executables, installer, help files, etc. will come later, but I hope by the end of the year.

Hallo all! We return to you again with the Valiant roundup for May. The red panda's been on a hot streak as the summer cranks up, and so we've got a full slate of episodes to deliver in this update - we've listed them for you below. Hope you enjoy them!

Hallo once more! March has been a little more forgiving than the first two months of the year, and the red panda was able to cough up another three episodes this past month.
