Update: EP9, new Coder&Project Manager, Visual Novels
🕑 Added 2023-09-29 06:39:46 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
We hope you had a great week! π
Episode 9:
I am currently assembling all the animations and cameras in Unreal in a temporary Set. You can see that itΒ΄s super basic for now, but we will later replace everything with final assets, do proper lighting, etc.
But I think itΒ΄s good that you see what it looks now and can then compare it to the final product. And you see that for now it looks shit and the final magic will happen later. But at least it looks better than in Maya π
So Trinity is still naked, we donΒ΄t have any background characters, etc. Also the mocap animations are not yet adjusted/tweaked as you can see here with Trinity leaning on the Bar. Fingers and Face are also not yet done.
But yeah, that will all be fixed and great looking in the end. I will finish the final edit end of next week, then send it off to the voice-over artists, and then first start polishing the animations and then create the final Set & Lighting & Atmospheric Stuff.
New Coder:
So a couple of people replied to my Ad that we need help with coding. I had a couple of Interviews (actually one more later today) and we already have 1 very promising candidate that we run a first test-month with. He is very experienced not only in coding but also in Project-Management! I am a pretty structured person myself, but I got so much on my plate already that having help with that, or maybe even taking over Project Management at all, will be great.
Fingers crossed that Month goes well and that we can establish a long-term cooperation. I would be very happy about that π
Visual Novels:
So I was doing some brainstorming with the Team and we were exploring the options for Visual Novels. And we found some really great tools to create a clean and well-structured Workflow for Projects like that. I want to try creating a Visual Novel at some point later this year or early next year because that Medium will give us the possibility to actually tell more Stories while having less Effort creating it compared to Games or Episodes. The Plan is to have mostly Pictures/Pages, also Decision Trees, and a couple of Videos for Key/Sex scenes.
If that goes well, and you also enjoy it, we can maybe also make more community-driven content. Like making a Poll with a couple of options for future Visual Novels, also with input from you on what you would like to see.
Another cool thing about Visual Novels is, that we are totally platform-independent. So that means we can release for PC & Android. And maaaaybe, the EU will force Apple to open their Market so in 2024 or 2025 we can have stuff on the iPhone/Tablets as well. That is still not sure though. But I really hope itΒ΄s going to happen π
Alright, thatΒ΄s it for this week! I will head back to working hard (pun intended) on EP9.
All the very best,
PM & Team
