[Episode Fomalhaut] Progress Update I
🕑 Added 2022-07-31 18:02:34 +0000 UTCGreetings,
work on the new update has started. There are still some open tasks for the 'old' update and I want to briefly talk about my music and streaming.
Fomalhaut
The name of the new update is 'Fomalhaut'. The next star starting with the next letter in the alphabet. The timeline of this update and sketches for most dialogue sections are completed and need to be written now. I also started rendering the first images, starting by Elios waking up.
Streaming
For the update I need a few new location or add prepared locations to the game. Most of the locations are already done but I want to add 2 or 3 more and I'm thinking about modeling them on stream. I don't know if there is interest for this, but I'll add this as reward for the tiers 'Galilei', 'Kepler' and 'Messier.
Elnath
I want to make another build with a few more bug fixes. Currently I'm waiting for response to an issue I'm not able to reproduce myself but want to investigate and fix before making another build.
Music
After a few requests regarding the music I created for this game I decided to upload them to YouTube with some simple music visualization. This will however take some time to create and upload all. I haven't decided yet how to 'publish' them. My initial idea was to create achievements for all tracks and they have to be unlocked in order to gain access to the YouTube links, while the YouTube videos are set to 'unlisted'. So they would only be accessible if you have the links. However, I'm not sure if that is a good idea and I should just make those videos public and maybe have some more reach. But then again, the achievements would become 'meaningless'. Feel free to let me know if you have an opinion in this.

Sounds good. You might find some other reward for the achievement in the future. And some people like to complete achievement just for the sake of completing them.

It's a combination of both. For example taking the shot from the observation where Selene and Elios watch the aruora lights, the lights move in sync to the music. Stuff like this.
If you do decide to make the videos public to reach more people then maybe the videos should contain images from your game rather than a simple music visualization.
