Gifted Rings: Records of Jacob Matthias [Chapter 1] (Where it started)

    WHERE IT STARTED                                                        My name is Jacob Matthias. I write this as I sit upon my wooden chair at my porch, looking over my garden and the ocean blue sky, for which the clouds leisurely strolled.                     I write this from records for which I have witnessed around the middle of my life, records I believe are so massive, they would be talked about before I depart this world.                     I know not if this record shall endure to find its place in history, yet I must put it down on paper; that the truth may not fade into legend, nor be stretched by poets into myth.         ...

O.N.E AGENCY UPDATE

 Hello Players. 


Just wanted to drop off an update on what have been done on the game.


I started working on a collection of whodunnit game, but stopped at some point.


I had lost motivation, and was too lazy to do anything at some point...I s
uspect it was burn-out, or adulthood, or just plain lazy.


This state got out of hand for a while, and it affected me all round in different parts of life.


Long story short, a few things game me motivation to work on the game once more.


The motivations are My Lady, and the play through of a masterpiece of a game called small saga (the youtube video of part 1 is https://youtu.be/6qluZJCBYEg?si=xEDRxNKxKEKVTIXI) The youtuber did a good job at commentary.


Gave me back a little spark, and I read the developers interview with construct here https://www.construct.net/en/blogs/construct-official-blog-1/developer-diaries-darya-1869
and his reddit AMA..which made me remember how to finish a game.


1 step at a time.


So with the new found motivation, I would figure out a way to be disciplined so as to keep my self pushing 1 task at a time.


But in the meantime I uploaded a new version of the game to itch.io(https://oroloboyeolom.itch.io/one-agency/devlog/777824/added-level-randomizer) and to gamejolt( https://gamejolt.com/p/hello-gamejolt-community-just-updated-the-game-edited-the-cond-frygrwiy).


the new update to this version is..

  • Edited the conditions for only desktop versions.
  • Added randomizer for picking case as stage.
  • Added a graphical exclamation to items/characters you can report.

I'm handling it as an mvp, and would slowly but steadily add to it.


If you give it a play do let me know in the comment about:


what you hate/detest.

what you love.

Thank you for reading this update..until next update, do stay safe and God bless.​

Q1 2025 Story and Priority Update.

 So, it is the 3rd month of 2025..and I have not achieved my goal of publishing ONE Agency to google play store. That was a wake up call, and made me re-prioritise my activities. At core, I am a business man..whom want to retire via the dividend paid from his company that produces games which is loved by 1/10 of the world population (8 billion people), and this people are paying a minimum of 15 USD per year for the company's games (12B USD). I picked games because I do love the development of games, since my experience with rpg maker and the making of Detective Nari game, and the fact I am currently based in a third world country..that is Nigeria. So, the thing with games is that...there are marketplaces that have been built since the 2000s, or closer. This marketplaces already have a large user base, accumulated over the years..and this means distribution of the product is handled as long as you can get it to the marketplace and collect payment. Majority of this marketplaces pay i...
