I've been busy with working on this game and yet there is little new stuff to report. But let's look at the different topics and see what I've been up to.
Writing: Pretty much done. All the core scenes I planned are written out. Was quite a bit of work, not to mention that those had to consider different choices with Stella and Mike with their possible romance-paths. And Morlas has outdone himself again with writing some great scenes for Aline, Mabel and many small snippets to be implemented. Still waiting on 1 or 2 scenes from my assistants, but hopefully we'll be able to finish and implement this all in the next two weeks.
Writing the big scenes showed me some of my limitations too. If a scene has to be written differently based on 1)Ginas choices in that scene, 2)Which romance options were picked for the first participating character and 3)Which romance options were picked for the second participating character then this slowly becomes tedious. So as much as I want you all to have freedom, there might be a need to limit those possible paths. And since we have a lot of characters already, this could become a huge mess.
So coming soon, I'll make a character poll for the romance-options too see which characters people are interested in the most. No use writing many thousands of lines for a romance with Enzi if possibly no one wants to see this anyway. For some reason the Yuri-Options seem to be more popular. I wonder why.. ๐คจ
Coding: The amazing Toxic finished the Skip-function to let players choose chapter 2 as a new starting point for the game. Next up is a bit of work on the Streets, bugfixing and balancing the second Boss and implementing new enemy-types and skills. Won't be too complex, as the big changes here are more important for the update 4 then. For me, it's mostly simple coding to add the new scenes and working with the action editor to properly align the new images and animations.
Art: That's were the most time is spent right now. I'd say I'm probably half-way through with the images, but then again I saved some of the most difficult ones for last. Most of the supporting cast are done, hence the lovely crew from the brothel up here, so this week the work on the three original girls is starting. Once the prompts are fine-tuned this should hopefully be a breeze then.
Oh, and I already decided to cut corners.. ๐I'll probably leave the 2 big dream-sequences untouched. Reworking the animations, consisting of a multitude of finely adjusted images for the gifs to work would be a time-dump without equal. So since they are dreams, I guess they are allowed to look a little bit different ๐
Well, enough rambling. Still aiming for November-Release! I'll keep in touch, and have a lovely week everyone.
