Hello everyone! 2025 will begin soon and I thought i'd give y'all some plans for what I will be doing in 2025.

First off, I would like to announce that I will be redesigning my persona, I will post it in a few days.

Secondly, kinda the main focus of this project, I will now give some proper news on a new game in the works right now:

Blanj Befour (or Tall Tales Blanj 4)

For other details in case I haven't covered them here and you want to know, check out my first updates project.

The tech demo is complete, I got every single basic done such as health, meteors, and collecting keys. I also plan to introduce in the final game a few new mechanics. Blanj Befour will be the first game in the series to feature proper scrolling (minus Tall Tales Blanj 2 DX which is cancelled).

The story has been decided on. The game will have collectables in throughout the levels that if you find all, you'll get the best ending.

As for the levels themselves, I was originally going to do a 2D open world in one big area with the levels hidden (similar to the PS1 Spyro games for example). I'm sorry to say but I decided to scrap this idea because since the game will take place in a few different regions in Aohime (the world of Blanj) I feel like making the open world would be kinda too much to do for what is essentially the entirety of a full-scale island in-universe.

However, Blanj Befour will be the first game in the series where you can do the levels in any order you want. Each having their own theme and boss fight unique to them.

@Autistic_Artz will also be doing the art for Blanj Befour! Oh and btw, we will likely do a hand-drawn artstyle for Befour instead of using vector models like the previous games. We will also be giving a small redesign for Blanj, it might be revealed soon.

One last thing about Blanj Befour I would like to mention: I hope it won't take as long as Tall Tales Blanj 3 did, (which for context, took one year to develop). I am planning to post a demo of Blanj Befour sometime in February. I am at the same time going to be working on a sequel to Walter White Goes To Buy A Coffee At Walmart called Walter White's KFC Date (a 2d trashpost run n gun platformer game starring Walter White. 

Both are pretty big projects, I will make sure they both get finished and (hopefully) don't take a stupidly long time like TTB3 did. :)

So, yeah, Happy New Year everyone.
