Summing up the Episode Two development
🕑 Added 2019-01-21 11:32:56 +0000 UTCI think it’s time to sum up.
Honestly, never before I felt tired, cheerful, sad, happy, depressed and inspired all at the same time. The development time was hard but interesting. Early on I thought the Episode Two would be more or less equal to the Episode One, even a bit shorter, but as soon as I began to write it, it expanded right in my sight. So demanded constant playtests.
For example: there is a girl and when player approaches her she turns her back to her grandfather and he nips her ass. I could have stopped there, but player can approach the girl from the side and then she would turn to her grandpa her side not her back – meaning he can’t see his granddaughter ass and it’s hard to nip her and the girl sees him in the corner of her eye.
What should I do in such case? Write another dialog, of course.
And that’s how my work was. I dealt one problem and then it expanded requiring more attention. But that’s exactly what I wanted to do.
I like when games have choices and branches, I like small details. I like it when you find something new in the game or when it rewards your curiosity. And those are the reasons why I want to improve myself in non-linear narration and better understanding of role-playing games’ design. I want to give people the delight I’ve been given.
Have I implemented everything I wanted to? Unfortunately, no. There was one event that I had to replace (we’ll talk about censoring later on), but overall I did more that I initially planned and that did good for the episode. One example of such addition is the moment with two children who are scared of Rodinka dressed as an elven tyrant. I find this scene funny + it adds to understanding of the relationships between humans and elves.
If we talk about deadlines, no matter how I tried to meet a three months deadline, I failed and was late for three days. It happened that I sent the Episode Two on December the 24th. The Christmas Eve. And what we had a week later, on the official release date?! December 31st. The New Year Eve. There can’t be any worse date to release a small indie game. But I couldn’t do otherwise: I promised the Episode Two and you were waiting for it. This brings us here.
And I want to thank you for playing and leaving nice feedback, that really warms my heart. Even the simple “thanks” means a lot for me. I want to tell you how grateful I am for your support. It is thanks to you why this project lives and evolves.
And in the meantime there are more than 50 of you already! Whoa!!! "Just a bit more and we’ll conquer the world-degeso", as would the Squid Girl say.
Thank you for that!
In conclusion, I’d like to tell that there’s a lot of work ahead, many episodes and, of course, many lewd adventures. The plot twists slowly for now, like in most of my favorite RPGs, but you could already notice small pieces of much bigger story that I am sure to tell you.
And for now if you want to help me a bit more feel free to tell your friends about this game in case they may like it, on the platforms where it is not mentioned yet, tell content makers that make videos on hentai games, etc. Don’t worry, I’m doing all this myself as well, but I’m on my own here (except for my translator) and I don’t have time on everything at once.
Thank you for attention and wish you best of luck.
