Hi there,
This post is intentionally shared to the public for everyone to know my feelings about the 0.4 and the future of the project.
Here we are, the next major update is about to be released in a few days. It tooks several months and you supported me so far. Thank you very much, patrons !
You are right to have high expectations about this update. The game has a bit of popularity and the content is of good quality so far.
I want to be clear about what to expect though. There're around 3/4 hours of gameplay with story, scenes and new mapping.
Some beta testers really enjoyed the update but told me they were a bit disappointed by the City of Lerid and the slums part.
So I want to say that Lerid is far from being finished yet and it is a playground for further content (slums and more).
I know people will be frustrated to see "content available in a later update" there and there. I tried to do the most as I could for a good 0.4. I could have add even more but you must release some stuff after a while or the project will never be real.
I mean that I have to release at a point the 0.4 update...even in the middle of some work, for you to play the game. Places may feel empty, brothel is not here and yes, slums may be not what you could expect (because I may have teased a bit too much by the npcs in town).
Please, do not forget I want to take my time to make something good. Scenes and poses are often unique (more than 3800 cgs in the image folder). I try to avoid to take poses already done in earlier scenes.
You know this is a game I work around 2h per day and not full time on it...
There's place for improvement. I'm adding stuff right now from beta with a new repeatable H-scene (30 more cgs).
I will add more in september and updates will come in october. I have a lot of ideas and I want to end this project with empty areas (story and map related) for side stories to add them in side content or even a new project in Leridia Universe.
0.5 content will begin shortly after 0.4 release. I want it to be the final chapter of the main story. I want to have this feeling I can end this. To stay motivated, you have to be supported but you have to end what you began 3 years ago.
Leridia was planned to be a little erotic rpg at first, for testing the software , a girl, a village, a forest...a little quest. Look what it is now. I'm sure you want it to end properly, am I wrong ?
Then once it is done, I'll be able to polish the game for a 1.0. It is now a matter of months.
See you the 26th of september for 0.4.
