The week ahead
🕑 Added 2019-05-26 03:55:13 +0000 UTCI suspect some of you have noticed that I haven't posted a poll for what I should work on this coming week yet. That's because I won't be posting one this week. There also won't be a test build this weekend.
So, let me explain the situation: We've got two weeks before the next Inheritance build comes out. Currently, there is zero new content in the game, and I always like a week for testing before release in order to iron out the worst of the bugs before it's released. The reason no content has been added is because we're doing a major rework of the code in the background related to pregnancy, random NPC generation, and skills. That will hopefully be complete in the next day or two.
That's not to say no content has been created. I'm currently sitting on a pile of 31 scenes for the game, partially coded (We've got some really great submission scenes in addition to the content I've been writing these last two weeks). There is also one scene that's seen a fairly significant expansion that needs to be added. I've been avoiding adding those scenes to the game because I don't want to do anything that might interfere with the code work being done in the background. This next week will start with a heavy focus on getting all of that new content into the game to ensure we have time to test it all before our regular release. Any extra time I have on my hands will be spent writing new content, and there's a fair chance we'll see some art this coming week as well. All in all, this next build looks like it's going to be fairly average in size, but the code work will start opening us up for a lot of the things we've been working toward for a long time, pregnancy content being first and foremost among those things.
Short version: Lots going on in the background, looking like the next build will be fairly average in size, and next week is going to be largely focused on coding new content. All good things.
And with that, I'm going to close up shop for the night. Have yourselves a wonderful evening!

Well said. This is why this entire build has been focused around this new code. So long as the code work is done in the next day then there shouldn't be any delays. After that, we'll have to see. I'll be sure to keep everyone updated as well as I am able in the meantime.
I say take your time; I would rather have a quality game then one that is rushed out. That and total overhauls are ridiculously complicated and feting it right is the best possible choice.
