Episode 2, Update #20
🕑 Added 2023-01-01 17:30:14 +0000 UTCHello everyone and a happy 2023!
I wanted to write one final dev post before I'm confident enough to release this episode in a few weeks time and to thank all of you for the continuous support. It means a lot to me.
A year ago around this time, the idea of this VN was born. Roughly 6 months later in July, the first episode was released. We're nearly another 6 months further and episode 2 is near completion. It's a much longer and detailed episode than the first, not something I anticipated. There's also so much wrong with the first release and believe this coming episode shows a lot of improvement on both the graphical front and dialogue (the first episode is atrocious!). That doesn't mean there's nothing wrong with this one (there definitely is!), but I don't want to stretch time any further than I really have to, and take what I've learned into episode 3 instead.
So what's left to do?
- Two and half scenes to be exact:
I have one more training scene to fully make (wrestling) and half of the BJJ training scene. As these involve the two main LI's (thus far), they're a bit longer.
The final scene is a difficult one for me to do in both a technical sense and from a story perspective. It's a bit on the sensitive side but that's all I will say about it for now.
- Revisions:
I want to go back to some of the scenes I did earlier in development and fix/expand them as they lack a few things.
- Rewrite some of the dialogue in Episode 1. As I said before, it's pretty terrible. Some of the choices also don't entirely make sense, so I'll overhaul them slightly or remove them entirely.
- Add unlocked fight moves and finish the sparring sequence.
- Update the phone and add/change the profiles
- Replace all temporary icons made for the 'Combo Builder' Application.
- Replace the main menu background to reflect EP02
- Add missing music & sound effects
- Add missing unlockables and add notifications when they are unlocked
- Misc small fixes and updates
Bear with me while I get it done as quickly as I can in my spare hours!
