Episode 6 - Progress Report #46

Hey everyone

I managed to finish renders today!

Here is the progress:

• Writing: 100%
• Coding: 100%
• Environments: 100%
• New Characters: 7/7
• Background Characters: 36/36
• Renders: 100%
  • Part 1 (9:00pm): 852/852
  • Part 2 (10:00pm): 457/457
  • Part 3 (11:00pm): 632/632
  • Part 4 (12:30am): 1033/1033
  • Part 5 (2:00am): 604/604
  • Part 6 (3:00am): 854/854
• Post-Processing: 75%
• Music/Sound: 0%
• Testing/Polish: 20%

Release date estimate: October 2025

This means we're sitting on a whopping 4432 renders for this release. Compare that to the second biggest episode (Ep. 5) with 2065 renders. In any case, I'm very happy to have finally completed this huge milestone.

So... what's left to do? The biggest thing is going to be music and SFX. I also have to post-process quite a few more images, and there's a pile of smaller to-do's like the recap at the start of the episode as well. Plus, with a release this big and with so many variables, much more testing will be needed than for earlier episodes.

None of these things are as unpredictable as renders though. So with renders out of the way, I'll make a proper release date announcement in the next couple days, so stay tuned for that .


❤ Thank you for your support! Enjoy your weekend! ❤

1.) good progress is being made, be excited

2.) she hasn't even touched Post/Sound/Testing in forever; and those are going to be the hardest things

3.) i foresee, at the VERY LEAST, *two* more weeks for Post, *one* additional week for Sound, and *three* more weeks for Testing-Polish before a release is even ready for upload

4.) my earliest estimate would be a Thanksgiving Holiday release, however, Post Processing for 4,000+ renders? anyone who knows anything about VNs or Renpy knows this is gonna be a huge time consumer - - also, anyone who has ever worked on a project for over a year straight knows that "testing" an annual release is going to get obsessive

5.) my comfortable release is December before Christmas

 

[MalLiz]

The game is not so hard. It is easy to do without in my opinion.

But... But... Then the player might actually have to think, or God forbid, make their own decisions!

The long march is almost over!!!

Hopefully it will only take a week to finish the final details.

So between the 20th and 24th would be a good estimated date.

And most important of all! The light at the end of the tunnel is no train! But I guess some hours of joy. But as you read in earlier posts I have to make up things with Ashe. That will be fine I guess.........

When the update drops I will not look at this thread. I want to finish the game before returning. I like to see things myself and not reading stuff here.

I have not see any vinegar drinker here today! So sorry for them! Morrigan just delivers. As most of us were thinking.

 

[sparticus42]

4432 render just in this update or he mean all the game?

Just this one update

Nah its coming at the latest november 1, those things take way less time to work on than renders, should be one week for post and one for sounds/testing/polishing or two max for those things

 

[damnedfrog]

Also @Jafo what happened to your face, mate? You got me really confused for a monent

Me too, for a second I was like "do we get a third Progress Report poster?"


Jafo you are not allowed to change your avatar, it's too much confusing!

 

[Jafo]

I am trully sorry about this..... LOL. And by now you will be used to my new avatar which I promise to keep some time.

I hope this guy gets more patrons so he can buy a stronger/more pc's. Nearly a year for what is essentially going to be a single in game night of content I feel will end up underwhelming regardless of its quality.

I agree the update took way too long but i doubt it will be underwhelming. the fact that its only 1 night is not that relevant. The number of renders matter and the update is the biggest so far. So the one night will be as long as 4-5 in game days

This is true but as a Natasha fan it seems as though I will have to wait for the next chapter for that content. The other thing I like is the slow burn romance which has been the mom and fiona content so far. So the umpteen new NPC's you can casually drunkenly bang at the party also probably wont appeal much to me personally sadly. How 'good' the update is will be in the eyes of each player.

It's just a delicate balancing act really of oh well if you want to replay over and over again you can do so many things at this party, and that does benefit a big fan of the game for sure. But that depth over breadth could feel lackluster for someone focused on one route or the average joe passing through and trying the game out for one playthrough.

If the entire game was that deep it would solve that and be great but its not worth the rendering endeavour unless he had 4 pc's loaded with render gpus.

Let's all email Linus Tech tips and see if we can get him to build the dev a custom rig for a video

Unfortunately, this is most likely true and we will not see some characters in the new update, although who knows. But if this is so, then this is already a big minus!
I'm not interested in minor characters or new ones. Over the course of the project's existence, everyone has developed their own favorites and their own preferred development paths that they would like to see most.
Also add production time here.
The number of renders is large, but again, there are three different paths in the game, different situations and different outcomes. You obviously won't see everything in one go and will have to replay it at least several times. Some people might not like this.
The last update had half the number of renders, but it was released three times faster.
I'm sure that the new update will have something to look at and there will be a lot of cool moments, but the dev must be prepared for the fact that there will also be negative opinions due to "some" moments, including those listed above, and that she will not "close herself" off after all, such a lot of work has been done, a lot of time has passed, and she clearly expects a lot of good reviews, but she must understand that there will be a lot of negative reviews and she should be prepared for this!

Hey chat, I've got a question for you. I played up until chapter 3 and have since waited for a couple updates so I got a big chunk to play through instead of just tiny pieces. The pairing I'm most interested in in this VN is Ashe and her sister. Without spoiling anything, is there any progress on that storyline since chapter 3?

Not yet. But maybe in Chapter 6 during the party.

 

[Ciaran8023]

Honestly I'm just interested in the overall story progressing, I'm not actually interested in any of the characters.

 

[Jafo]

We will see the remaining "unknown" characters soon!

 

[Aaron236]

So, Ashe is the only true futa in this game's story, huh? i guess they're really THAT rare in this game's world

 

[Ken Moreno]

I don't know about you guys but as someone who loves to play fun bad stuff I am just here waiting to play the Cuckqueen path and not because I like it or think its good but quite the opposite because the logic and personalities of all the characters in the game go out the window in that path to the point it makes no sense that it feels like such a train wreck like some sort of goofy parody of the game.
I am legit intrigued at how bad it is and just want to see how much worse it can get in both terms of writing and the girls becoming sex hungry sluts I find it fun to watch, the other two paths are great though.
