Public post - a major milestone
🕑 Added 2022-06-22 17:39:07 +0000 UTCHello everyone! This week's public post features an update on our progress towards a completed remaster and also a little poll just for fun.
The big news is that as of yesterday, the maps and coding work are now all complete! Every area now looks right and (in theory) works as it did before. We're back to where we started, woo!
That completes by far the biggest part of the remaster. Over 80 maps, 8 quests, many repeating events and much more. I've also added the names of characters to their dialogue, making it easier to distinguish who's talking.
Here's Captain Elysee demonstrating it, along with the cute new face graphic for the town guards. As before, this will be used for all of them for now, but later, I'll create a few different guard sprites and corresponding faces to add variety. Elysee will get her own unique one at some point, as we'll be seeing her again.
Abbie's hot sister Malia joins the growing legion of updated sprites, as do an array of working girls from the Red Light District. With the map and coding work done, this is now the next major focus. It's about 50% done now.
A few face sets have been redone. This is probably the most boring part of the remaster, which likely explains why I've been dragging my feet on it. However, it won't take long to do once I get started properly. Here is Becky's, which I did most recently:
It's basically exactly the same as before, just in a better resolution, same as the ones you've seen already in Christmas Eva. Like I said, these are super-boring to do, but I can knock them out fairly quickly.
Lastly, the re-rendering. Since dropping the remastering aspect, this has greatly sped up, and as of today, I've redone 955/2576 (37%) The only limitation on this is how fast I can reload the scenes, though some of the early ones weren't saved in full so there is a bit of work reconstructing them,
We are now entering an endgame with the upgrade to Missy MZ. I still don't want to commit to a timescale yet, but the completion of the maps and coding means we're not that far off.
Now, last thing, it's been a while since we had a just-for-fun poll, and so after writing a retrospective of Chapter 3 for my supporters the other day, I got curious as to how popular each of the quests are, and which have been the most well-received so far. So today's question is: which is your favourite Missy quest so far? I have some idea which I expect the front-runners to be, but I'm genuinely fascinated to see the results.
Have a great week!

I put those sprites there to basically give the hotel the feeling that things were happening around you. Never even thought of adding some sort of keyhole peeping scenes though!

Chapter two, I wish there was some cutscene/image about what happen in the other rooms when we have to go to go up the elevator. A lot of interesting things seems to be happening there and there but without any cutscene/image, it is a bit of a let down. But overall I love the game ;) Just letting you know what I felt in chapter 2.

Poppy is the queen and missy is her chair. lol

Yeah, I figured that one would be one of the front runners.

Definitively the submission the Missy to the bad girls. I really like all the plot and how Missy goes to everytime more deep in their submission to Poppy.
