It's been waaaaaaay too long since we've made an update, and there's absolutely no excuse for that.
I'll start by saying that development of Chapter 10 is going full steam ahead, and we're trudging doggedly toward the finish line. One element of wrapping up our first game we've struggled a bit with is saying good bye to characters we've become attached to over the game's development.
As such, we've seen a bit of "scope creep" in our closing chapter, with a steadfast determination to give each ending its due.
The result is that we are currently at an update size that meets or exceeds our normal chapter release, but we still have a ways to go.
With each ending getting its share of humor, lewd content, and loose end resolution, it's fair to say we underestimated the scope of delivering closure.
What's complete:
- 1400 renders done so far, out of an estimate 2100
- Short-term fallout from relationships
- The lawsuit resolution
- Romantic path resolution
- 4/8 lewd scenes (The longest ones)
- Music selection
- Ren'py Update Regression Testing
What's left to do:
- 4 shorter lewd scenes
- Long-term fallout from relationships
- Beta and focus testing the ending structure
As of today, I would estimate development of the final chapter at approximately 70-75% complete.
The good news is that with the holidays behind us, our development pace has accelerated, so I'm reasonably confident our final chapter will deliver in May. This should give us time to wrap up the remaining scenes, complete sound and music integration, test the choice matrix, and beta test.
Once again, I apologize for the dearth of updates. I promise they will become more frequent as we close in on game completion.
