This render came out crisp and clear. It seems like the game is coming together. Though, I'm still looking for the characters to get on thyroid meds. (small joke) :)
Thank you! I aim for a public release on the last of the month, so the earliest supporter build would be out in roughly two weeks. I think I can finish everything until then, here's hoping nothing gets in the way :) I really enjoy working on this game.

Mind explaining the joke? I'm not a native speaker and think I'm missing something here :D

The women's eyes appear larger than normal. See my avatar? Hypothyroidism affects the eyes like that, but with meds, they tend to remain normal. The whites of the eyes won't make the iris appear small. Sorry, bad joke! Since I'm nit-picking, the American flags on the uniforms are facing the wrong way (stars and blue to the front, for realism). Just started playing and I'm liking it so far. You'll do well, my friend! :)

Ah, I get it now, thanks for explaining :)
Good point about the flags, I remember reading that you guys have rules for that. I'm from Germany, we act like we don't have a flag, lol. I'll see if I can change the underlying assets somehow, but I'm not super good with changing textures and everything :)
Thanks for the nice words and the feedback, I'll see what I can do about that!

For the flags, if you find the texture file. You could load them up into photoshop and flip them most other programs can probably do the same.

My favorite Youtube Bushcraft women are from Germany and Austria. And of course, there's Joerg Sprave. He's a weapon and gun law enthusiast from Germany. :)

Ah, a fellow Joerg connoisseur :D Impossible not to like the guy, I love it when he goes into his workshop to build stuff. He's a bit on the brink lately with all the gun law stuff and everything, but it's understandable because his livelihood depends so much on it. I still hope I can get one of the HP Max air rifles one day, they look super cool.

Sorry for derailing the thread :D

Huh, I suddenly love you now. Where is the romancing option <3
Glad i could be of help, i actually only just thought of it when i seen the uniform on a site and i remembered you were going to look into it so thought i would give it a go. And found you don't even need photoshop lol.

So, for some reason I decided to give you guys the choice between two different outfits for one of the largest scenes of the second episode - say hello to rendering every image twice :D

I hope it will pay off in making the game more fun to play - it was really a stupid decision from a development view :D

Here's a little teaser, hope you enjoy: 406.jpg

Soooo, Chapter 2 is out!

Here are the links for Mac and PC:

Please let me know if everything plays right, and I'm always glad for any feedback and especially bug reports, if there are any. I tested this so much that I'm probably not seeing obvious bugs anymore if there are any left. And please let me know if the new main menu screen works for you guys, that was very finicky to implement.

I hope you enjoy!
