Hey y'all!
Scenes are complete and I'm waiting for the final renders to finish. I decided against tacking on Lily's section from EP2, and keep it as it originally was. I just have to make the end report screen, make some more UI improvements, clean up some scripts, think about what rewards to add (might still change my mind on this, as you unlock phone backgrounds already and I need to find a balanced spot to potentially unlock something else).
I expect to finish soon, and send it around for testing. I'm struggling a little with the idea of releasing this, as there's a big disconnect now between the quality of EP1 going into EP2. Then again, first impressions are everything. So hopefully with the quality improvements of both the renders and the dialogue, it'll turn less people off.
The copyrighted and trademarked items have been largely removed (obviously still have to do the other episodes), but I've now got a good base to re-release EP1 as a standalone demo as well. There's also enough to launch the Steam page(s), so that'll be next.
Fun fact, the intro was the only part in the game that contains actual DAZ renders. They've now been replaced with the UE5 versions (as per the preview image), and no legacy of DAZ remains.
Curious what you guys think, if you even can be bothered to play the intro, prologue, and EP1 again.
All the best,
Ezy ❤
