Dev Update #15 (11/03/24)
🕑 Added 2024-03-11 11:54:55 +0000 UTCHey everybody :)
I'm pleased to report that we've hit our render goal this week, adding 153 new renders to the mix. This brings the total count to 621 renders and 3 animations. With roughly 200 renders left before reaching the planned conclusion of v0.3, I anticipate needing about two more weeks to wrap things up. Ideally, it would take just over a week, but I do have some personal commitments that will slightly disrupt my development schedule this upcoming week.
But once the renders are complete, the next steps involve assembling the game, doing all the post-work on the renders, refining dialogue, assessing the gameplay, and then making all the necessary adjustments from there.
As with the previous two releases, I haven't been playing the game as I go; instead opting to just focus on making new content, and then coming in at the end to turn the rough draft into a final finished product. I think that for the next update, I'm going to switch it up and play the game/make adjustments as I go, just to compare the two workflows and see which works better for me. It would make development slower to polish as I go, but I do have to spend that same amount of time at the end anyway, so maybe I'll end up adopting this new workflow.
There's also two things I want to get around to during this final polishing phase besides making adjustments to the new content. Firstly, I plan to replace the current soundtrack, and secondly, I aim to revamp the UI to enhance its visual appeal. Planned UI changes include changing the choice buttons, reimagining the pause menu, and hopefully incorporating an animated main menu.
That's pretty much the gist of this week's development update. Things progressed smoothly, and I anticipate a similarly smooth week ahead, albeit with a slight reduction in productivity due to my upcoming commitments. And to my purple-belts, apologies for the slight delay on the lewd wallpapers. One is complete, and I'm currently working on the other. You can expect both within the next day or so.
But thanks so much for your continued support folks! Much love, and I'll catch up with y'all in the next one ❤️
