[Chapter 4 Sneak Peek - #3]

Nothing much to say, and I had troubles picking an image for preview so I'm just gonna do this one for neutrality.
Progress is there, going nicely.

Ps: Wanted to fix the caption and in a moment of being sleepy, I deleted the post so here it is again... ch4_meredith01_03.png

DiPeppo How is the development of the update going? It's a long way off

Game's not dead, dev's not milking (hopefully, maybe).

But seriously, it's going alright. I did do a mini-update back in December as an experiment on Blender as I mentione - for Chapter 4, the pace is fine. I can't give a concrete answer, like we will be done in a month or 2 months from now, because I don't want to sacrifice quality - if I can improve something within a reasonable time frame, I will; which possibly means that the development might take extra time.

However, just be assured that I am already pushing myself over the limit to get this update out as soon as possible without cutting corners. I acknowledge that I haven't been able to do this as a full-time developer yet. If you really want to know why: I'm in a graduate program, so my day time is spent 9 to 6 as a student/assistant, 6 to 7 to eat, shit, rest a bit so that I get the dumbo juice out and get the smort juice in, whatever; then 7 to 2 for the game development itself. That's why I began to unload some work to others, because that saves time and they can do it way better than I can do it now (future, not sure; but absolutely better than me now).

TLDR: Development's going alright.

Your ever growing hunger for perfection is one of the reasons I actually enjoy playing through the first few chapters multiple times over. Not many devs get that invested into the world they create since they mostly see it as a vehicle for getting to the next lewd scene (not going to mention any *notable* examples here). When you have a world you care about, and characters you personally feel heavily invested in, you get a purely magical experience that's hard to describe.


Also... your schedule sounds like a masochist's wet dream. I sincerely hope you're doing okay mental health wise...

Thanks, slick. It's not an easy road to walk on, but hey! I'm masochist so who knows.

And nah, don't worry. I only wish that there were more than 24 hours a day or that I didn't need to sleep so that I could have more time to do other things. I'm still doing okay though, no sweat! :cool:

Very nice start to a game, amazing visuals, good writing, and likable characters. I honestly can't wait for more, this game has outstanding potential.

If there's one nitpick I could make its that there are a ton of references to other games, but there's no info about what games are being referenced. It would be a great addition to include a reference list somewhere, so we can check out the games that are being referenced.

Keep up the great work!
