28/07/2023 Patreon Devlog (GS)
🕑 Added 2023-07-29 00:00:02 +0000 UTCHallooo! Time for the GS devlog for this week.
This Week's Summary:
- Coded all other sprite expressions
- Coded in one new sprite
- Yuu's content guide (worked on)
The Ramble:
I managed to finish sprite expressions this week.
This route was SO tedious. Like all the Endgame routes, there were so many large group scenes due to meetings and the like. It hasn't been this bad for a while because no other route really has these huge scenes with like 9 characters cycling in and out. That's kind of an Endgame thing, really.
And there were SO many of those in this route. So it took a while to get all the expressions done. I am exhausted LoL
It is so tedious and I ended up with a headache for multiple days from spending hours staring at the screen with my face all scrunched and tense.
But that is finally done.
I coded in just one new sprite - I have one more sprite mostly done (just needs some finishing touches, then coding) and three more sprites to draw from scratch.
I already coded in all their expressions since everyone has the same expression set. This means that once I import their images and set up their sprite code, all I have to do will be to double check for typos and errors. But all their expressions should be automatically populated with the correct images.
Finally, I did some work on Yuu's content guide as well. Just kind of filling out the basic things I know off the top of my head and doing a count of all the cursing...
Then removing some of the cursing because Caleb is in this route and he has a potty mouth. And there was a LOT of cursing. LoL.
It's been somewhat reduced now. 🤣
Sneak Peeks:
;o; Spoilers
Upcoming Week:
So the first thing in the upcoming week will be to finish the remaining sprites. I think I'll probably get those done before the week is out. And if so, I'll begin working on CGs.
At this point, the last "big" thing to complete before beta testing is the art.
I expect to finish the CGs and send this last route out into beta sometime in August. Once in beta, I'll be turning my attention to wrapping up some of the outstanding KS rewards (art book, lore book, wallpaper art, mailing out the Cursed Stickers finally, etc.)
There is a light at the end of this long tunnel.
But still a fair bit of work left. Still. We're getting there for sure.
