Hallo~oo! Time for the GS devlog!
This Week's Summary:
- Set up and coded New BGs
- That I had but weren't coded
- Finished coding in all the BG changes/switches
- More or less did a speed run while checking the BGs
- Did a slower "David run"
- Made toooons of corrections
- Coded all sprite appearances/disappearances
The Ramble:
So for this week's ramble on Gilded Shadows. My big focus this week was my "David run." It basically took all week due to stopping a lot of edits, corrections, and sprite staging.
I did manage to finally figure out how to speed David up a little so it wasn't as bad as it's been in the past.
I made a lot of corrections and also a surprising amount of edits to just fix things I felt didn't come across the way I wanted. LoL (It's impossible to not keep editing forever, I swear.)
I managed to get finished with the David run yesterday after a gruelling week of listening to Yuu's story read in the most monotone, robotic, yet occasionally sassy way. Thank you for your contributions, David.
I got all the sprite staging done which just means that I have all the sprites appearing and disappearing when they need to and positioned where they need to be. I can even code in the sprites I don't have art for yet because renpy just inserts a weird place holder for the non-existent art. Later, once I have the sprites actually completed and in the game, the place holders will update automatically. 💪
So yeah! That is kind of my first round of alpha testing out of the way as well as getting a few other things done at the same time.
Sneak Peeks:
Here. Have some weird flirting. LoL
Upcoming Week:
I have a really long to-do list of things to get out of the way before I settle into doing the sprite art, CG art and coding sprite expressions.
I think this next week I'll probably start with coding in the music and SFX. And then most likely move into working on the flowcharts so I can get those set up. And maybe getting the glossary links set up.
I think I need a couple of new glossary entries written so I may do that too.
Once those major things are out of the way, the art assets will be the remaining thing. And then we will be in testing purgatory for a while.
Anyway, that is all for now. I will see you all next week!

Ha ha - fortunately this is a reference to something earlier in the game where they actually talk about what oxytocin is and how it works. So that's why Morgan is teasing him about it now. 🤣🤣

OMG, I am going to die! As much as I adore Yuu, I'm going to need a dictionary just to enjoy the flirting. I cannot wait.
