A quick update with some fresh Under the Table images! I've made pretty good progress this week, and am somewhat ahead with my regular work so I am tentatively hoping I may be able to get all the game images done by the end of next week... Here you've got a view into the central office area, under the tables (!), Linda (!!) and a bit of desk drama.
Right now, I've completed the Bull Pen scenes, which I think were the most technically demanding, so things should speed up towards the end.
To keep you updated on adjustments for the game:
I've removed Arnold's house/family and some of the Daniela paths for now, but I've kept in everything else from the book. I've also simplified some endgame options, using a park bench instead of Hailey's apartment (the general point being, less stuff outside the office).
On the other hand, I've added a couple of brief interactions in the Bull Pen as I had these extra characters there, so you can now get stomped (or kidnapped) by an additional coworker. I'm also going to add in some new dialogue/interaction options generally once I've got through the images.
I've added a few sounds but think to speed things along I might only add a little more. The main work there instead will be adding some music throughout.
No extra animations this week but I have a few in mind for the next bits; probably a Hailey stomp and at least one scene from the scientist Penny.
Next week I will be diving into the lab! I'll also be nailing down exact release schedules and pricing/subscription release info next week – but fairly confident now I'll have the beta ready to test for subscribers by the end of this month.
Have a good weekend.
