Still working on Solvalley + a possibility of scaling images and videos
🕑 Added 2021-11-22 19:30:23 +0000 UTCHello!
I'm still working on Solvalley's harem ending involving several girls from the game. As I wrote before, this ending will work in a different way, instead of a single scene, it will be more open like a kind of "sandbox". So I'm making it work in such a way that the player can "exit" the scene at any time and go back to the normal game. If he then decides to return to the "harem ending", he will pick things up where he left off.
This way I'll be able to add more content in the future with more girls (and their mothers). Because of this, I am working hard now to close everything I have done so far to make the download available before the end of this month.
About the possibility of scaling the images and videos
Solvalley School runs at a ridiculous and nonsensical resolution (1000x700). This is a legacy from the time when the game was made in RPG Maker. Because of this, those who have a monitor of at least 1080p and play in full screen are rewarded with a sad image quality.
It turns out that today there are programs capable of scaling images and videos in a very interesting way, using algorithms based on artificial intelligence. I have done some tests and even if the result is not 100% perfect, it is still considerably better than stretching the original images.
Because of that I'm seriously considering improving the resolution of the game so that at least the window height is 1080p. This would make the resolution something equivalent to 1540x1080p, which still doesn't make much sense because the aspect ratios won't be 16:9, but it would already be a considerable improvement.
The problem with this approach is that I will have to redo all the maps and interfaces of the game and I am not too sure how much time I would need to do this. Maybe it will be fast, maybe not... Another side effect would be a considerable increase in the size (Gygabytes) of the game. It is already very large and therefore difficult to download (those who use Mega, for example, have to deal with download quota limits).
I will make a new post here soon showing the difference and will ask you guys if it is worth making this transition. For now, however, I recommend playing the game in windowed mode so that the image is not too deteriorated in better monitors.
Bye!
Aurora is the only MILF at the moment who will be part of the harem. In this image we can also note how handsome the Solvalley School protagonist is.
Adria also moves in with Alex, along with the other two maids who appear during the game.
Here is a rough comparison between a native image (top) running at 1080p X an upscaled image (bottom) also running at 1080p. I am still pondering whether it is worth doing this conversion. The factor that concerns me most is the size of the images and videos, which would make the game simply too big to be easily shared on the internet.

Mr. Toge
The effort you put in the game makes us all happy, do as you feel more satisfied, but don't overwork it and take care of yourself.

I'd rather you focus on creating new content than improving the quality of old images! Keep up the great work!
