Hey everyone,

Over the past year, I've been developing my first game The Wondrous Storybook. Its inspired by games like Hades and Realm of the Mad God.

I put together a devlog that shows what an entire year of development looks like for me.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

I was getting drift between the quest modal, ground arrow, minimap, and atlas in Realm of Echoes. I replaced the duplicated handoff logic with one tracked-objective state that every cue reads from.

That fixed stale markers, but it also made the opening feel over-directed: accept the quest and four systems all point at the same target. My next pass is to remove one cue instead of adding more logic.

I’m leaning toward cutting the center prompt after the first objective. Which cue would you remove?

Developer disclosure: some 3D assets are Meshy-assisted; this UI and runtime integration are custom.
