Progress on 0.3.7.0
🕑 Added 2021-03-19 10:37:57 +0000 UTCGood morning everyone!
Almost noon and time for me to give you an update over the things I've worked on over the past week.
The first thing I did last weekend was to fix the script that calculated Penny's vegetables. This has been around for a while now and I always put it off as "not that important".
Then earlier this week I've reworked the dialogue images for Henry and Lucius again, some of you pointed out that their chests looked strange so this was something I had to adjust.
Then came the thing about the MC rework. I told you why I was conflicted with that change but also why I think it is a necessary thing to do. As I've explained on discord already, the original model was accidentally modified a long time ago (must have happened around update 0.1). Since then I had to restore the model and used the new version you currently see in all the scenes. Over the time I fixed a reflection bug with his hair and earlier this week updated his skin texture. All of that lead to his appearance being slightly different to the original (which was also altered by me scaling the images incorrectly for the game resolution which is the reason why he appears a bit broad) In short: The original model doesn't exist anymore and because of that I can't make new dialogue images of the MC to polish the current ones.
But of course many have gotten used to his look (me included) and during the scenes you don't really see the difference. Because of that, if you prefer the old look you can still have it in the future. They will be available as a patch that you can include into each version.
Ok this was now a long text :D but it only took a short amount of my time this week.. What took the most (~3 days) was the work on 400 new images for 4 new animations for Penny.
I've also replaced Henry's sleeping image in former scenes to fit his current model and had to rerender the bedroom as I slightly changed it and wanted it to look the same during all animations.
Another thing I did was to add the camp and the witches cottage as a fasttravel option for the map. I think that will make it easier for you to access these locations and by that also see scenes with the characters there. And finally I've continued writing on Penny's story dialogues. This is something I will continue to do for the rest of today.
What is left to do? - Of course the story writing, then I want to make a scene for Henry & Penny. I will have to write multipile branches of dialogue for Penny depending on how you progress her story (This will consume most of next weeks time).
And then there are a few other things I want to do that aren't necessarily important and that are on my "When I Have Time" list. For example, I want the vegetables Penny sells to Lucius to be available in his store. I also want to make it possible to break into his shop at night to steal from him while he sleeps. We'll see how much is possible next week.
I'm currently pretty sure I can make my deadline next friday. It might take some longer workdays next week again, but that was to be expected.
I wish you all a nice weekend!

This will happen in the future, I just want her path to corruption be a bit more special

A question? Because Mira is not corrupted, I would like to see her corrupted

how did i not notes that Lucius connection. i forgot she even go's to him to sell her stuff. Lucian the one who sells our potion to people and know about our curse (dos not believe in the witch part but he knows the cum parts real) i can defiantly see him using it on penny probably as a free sample or a health drink he sells her to keep her fit and hydrated, all a lie of course. the thing is i never saw lucian as rapy just morally greedy because if he was a rapy basterd the hole town would be in the shits right now because he would just be spiking everyone products and as the only merchant in town, everyone buys food and drinks from him if not from the bar or travailing merchants. but going after someone hes crushing on or has a grudge agents (in this case its probably not penny but Henry) i can defiantly see him do it. plus it would allow a great new miner threat/opportunity for the player, be it as a pure ntr, swinging, netorie (agenst Henry, with or without us involved), a possible pimping opportunity, plus some good old fashioned coking on henry because it seems as if nobody besides penny can even stand him. so meny opportunity

I see Penny's route quite a bit compared to the other characters, even though she is a minor character. The relationships around Penny are still underdeveloped. Like Henry, or Penny and Lucius' relationship (although Penny goes to Lucius's store on Monday and gets him experimenting with some kind of medicine), or Hennry goes to buy medicine at the store Lucius is also in the development phase. Probably the next version of Penny's route will be expanded, I look forward to that. PS: This game consumes a lot of my free time, I can't stop this game. I love this game, thank you.
