Added 2020-12-18 15:20:23 +0000 UTCHello all.
Oh my God, this update is so big y'all. I can't quite take it. It's really stretching me to my limits.
;)
Here's where we are this week:
Update 6 Tasks
Write scenes - 23/23 (100%) -
Write Conversations - 31/31 (100%)
Write Dates - 3/3 (100%)
Render Images - 246/376 (65%) - I worked almost exclusively on posing and rendering this week, so we have a significant jump here from the previous week, but still quite a ways to go. I've done all the more difficult renders I believe, so there's going to be a lot of these that move very quickly.
Render Animations 16/19 (84%)
Functions - 4/5 (80%) - Still have not started tutorial. I think I'm going to revamp the affection screen as well to show more information about each of the characters when you click on their names. When I leave town next week, I'm going to be taking my laptop with ren'py on it so that I can work on this coding while I'm away, since I wont be able to work on any renders. Hopefully I can have a lot of things queued up to render before I leave.
Total Completion - 88%
Release Date
I don't think January 8th is going to happen now. Looking at the calendar, I figure I'll be done with renders Sometime around the 1st. I'll need some time to do testing on my own and fix all major issues. Then I'll need at least a week for beta testers to test everything. So I'm going to postpone release for one more week.
New Release Date: January 15th
Sorry to do this. Been working my hardest to get everything done, but there's just a lot here in this update.
Final Thoughts
The end is in sight. I see my little spreadsheet where I keep my checklist for the update slowly filling in every day. That total percentage goes up a couple points every day. It's getting close, and I know that this update will significantly improve the game. I can't wait for you all to see it.
Love ya and thank you for supporting me! Have a great weekend!
