Dev Log 41
🕑 Added 2024-10-27 16:55:34 +0000 UTCHey guys, welcome to dev log 41!
It's been another productive couple of weeks. To start with, I've finished another two hundred renders for 0.11, which is shaping up to be a very fun update! But on top of that, a bunch of my time has been devoted to finishing up the new UI, which is now in the final testing and tweaking phase of the process. Which means, it's time to show it to you all! There isn't much more to say about that, so I'll let the picture do the talking:
Main Menu:
Replay gallery, and the new photo gallery that will contain all of the photos them MC takes and gets sent by the girls. In addition to looking nicer, the galleries now work in game - you no longer have to return to the main menu:
Character bio pages. Functionally the same as they used to be, only shinier!

Options/preferences - contains a number of new options, including the option to add coloured borders to the in game dialogue for people that like to play with the dialogue box partially or fully transparent.
And finally, the in game menu:
In addition to what you can see in those screenshots, the new design contains a lot of smooth transition animations that make it really satisfying to navigate!
And finally, aside from the obvious visual improvement, the new gallery and character bio pages will be much less labour intensive for me to add new content to with every update, which is always nice!
So, with the UI now mostly out of the way, I should be able to throw myself into rendering 0.11 full-steam ahead now, which means I probably won't have much interesting to say in the next dev log, but as always, I'll speak to you again in two weeks just to check in. Until then, thank you all for your support!

Mid December is the target, though earlier is still possible at this point.
Terry Humphrey
I love the story. Do you have a target for when .11 will be released?

Thanks for the text outlines, I'm one of those that prefers fully transparent dialog boxes and it'll make a huge difference to me, so thanks again! All the UI changes look fantastic and can't wait to see them! Great work!!! as usual....

Woah this looks professional as heck. Excited for the new stuff cosy!

Looking good. The only critique I have is the UI elements with text are too transparent. I think it would look nicer if it was less transparent. For example Lucy's bio text is hard to read because it's overlapping on a bright portion of the image. That said I'm liking the new UI look!

Wow, looks great!

Not something I'm currently planning on, but it is in the back of my head as a possibility for the future.

As someone that is also working on an UI overhaul for his game and know how a pain in the rear can be; Congrats! is looking really really good. Will the main menu bg switch between different images?
Anders
Take your time! No stress.
Jacky
Nice job Cozy. I like those new GUI pictures above that means massive upgrade/enhancement from the existing one
Dracconius
I can't wait to play the new update. The improvements look great. And having a photo gallery of all the pictures you take is awesome. Thanks for all the work you put into this Cosy.

I'm thinking mid December is likely, but I should be able to give a better estimate in the next dev log when I've had a bit of time to get further with the rendering.
Max
It's once again looking really good. Can't wait for the update!
Anders

Garagara
