Another brief update...and it's not even mid month
🕑 Added 2020-08-22 21:33:17 +0000 UTCSo I am getting into the home stretch, but before I lose myself in the spiral of too much caffeine and then not enough caffeine, just wanted to give a quick update since I am notoriously bad at staying in touch especially when I really dive into the work.
No release date yet. I've finally learned my lesson on those and when I announce the release date it will be firm. No more missing it because x happened or whatever. However, I am getting much closer to announcing a firm date/time.
I am trying out a new idea I had to make it so it's easier to see all the paths but actually still choose the meaningful decisions that impact the story. Let me know how you like it once you play it. Hopefully less save scumming or rollbacks needed in the future. If it is well recieved I plan on putting an option in the settings to turn that feature on/off in the rewrite, so those of you who enjoy playing around and messing with paths each new play through aren't tempted to click the easy button, but the option is available for people like me who spend hours rolling back in games to see that one piece of dialogue they may have missed.
Usual updates have between 300-400 renders and it takes me most of the month to get it done. This update is approaching 900-1000 renders because there is one VERY large scene in it that is about the size of a full months update. I didn't want to have that scene be it's own update, it's not like the party scene where there were all the main girls except the wife were there. It meant if you aren't interested in certain paths, it may have been a useless update. Instead of that, I figured I would take a slightly extended month(nothing new there lol), hammer out an absolute boatload of work, and include it in with an almost otherwise full update.
All that being said...don't expect this crap every month lmao. I've loved working on this update so it feels less like work(some scenes REALLY didn't feel like work haha), but I also kind of forgot what the sun looks like. Then when I went to check it out, I remembered. It's bright and it sucks.
Those of you like me who enjoy all paths in games like this, well this update is...and I don't use this term lightly...a doosie.

I'm jones'n for my midlife crisis π³
I'm taking baby steps at staying in better communication. Soon hopefully I actually remember that people want to hear things from time to time. Sometimes I need a poke and I only get phone alerts from discord if you tag or whatever it's called my name. So feel free to poke every once in a while, help me stay in touch a bit better.

See.. now this is the perfect example of something you could also share on Discord...
