Here is the progress so far for the next update of Voreocracy. I'm trying to be transparent here as I value the opinion of all of you. I've had massive delays trying to optimise what was already made by trying different image files and size to see which one had the best file size savings for the smallest loss in quality. I also got really sick just before and during the holidays at a point where I could barely get out of bed. I now dropped the optimisation idea for this update to get it out quicker. The thing I would like to know is.
1. Should I keep going for the update as planned, aiming at a late Marsh release.
2. Release what is done now, even if there isn't much vore scene in it. Do the rest as soon as possible (probably early April).
3. Release what is done now, even if there isn't much vore scene in it. Do some other vore content before doing the other part.
I understand most of you are dissapointed by the slow progress of the game. I'm terribly sorry for that. I think we can all agree I'm pretty bad at keeping things on schedule. For those who feared I was giving up, don't worry.
Don't be shy to ask question I love responding to them, In private messages or in the comments. It's okay if you PM me but I prefer in the comments.
Cheers!

Hey Voreonika, I love your game and I'm excited to play the new update to be released. Is it likely to be released this month? (As March is now over)
Lorenzo
I wouldnβt mind it at all
Voreronika
Not so good, I'm working the "prep for club" part right now. I could release everything leading up to the club. But the real vore scenes in this update all happens in the club.
Lorenzo
How is work going? ^^

I used a script to convert the images in version 0.31 to webp at the same size (1080p with smaller sprites ) and got the total game size down to 462MB from 3.74GB. After replacing PNG with webp in script.rpy the game ran fine :)

It is honestly by far the best vore game out there and I think what you are doing is amazing and i am more than happy to wait for this level of vore animation. Keep doing what you are doing if its delayed a bit then that's the price of quality.
Der
Excited either way! keep up the great work
Lorenzo
Oh wellβ¦ people voted 1 anyway. Iβll respect that u.u
Voreronika
That's unfortunately something that can indeed happen.
Lorenzo
The only reason I voted 2 instead of 1 is because Iβm worried you could delay againππ

This man preaches, be sure to take breaks and time for personal life. It's never good for a dev to get updates out in exchange for their mental or physical health!
Voreronika
I always keep the 4K original images yes. For now the game is in 1080p PNG, but I will probably downgrade everything to Webp 720p.

If you keep backups of the high quality originals, you can afford to have a much larger decrease in quality during development and then swap out the images and videos to make a high quality/HD version at the end.

I am here for the vore, what ever gets the vore scenes out is the choice I choose. Waiting a little longer for it, is totally fine, real life is super important and this game is one of the best looking ones out there. Don't beat yourself up about it, you are doing great and this is super exciting.

I can't see speak for everyone, but remember real life takes priority. So, I wouldn't mind waiting a bit longer for any updates.
Voreronika
Thanks a lot.

I honestly think this is one of the higher quality vore games out there especially in the animation department so I'm always willing to wait longer for updates.
