progress chpt5 week 14.jpg

Hey Homies,

I'm chipping away at things whenever I have the energy but work has been killing me lately.
Sorry that it's such a slow grind, things should slow down a little for me around New Year at the latest, and development can start to make some notable progress again.

Much love!
JB

Hey Homies,

The report might not look impressive, but there was a lot of backend stuff going on this week. Full (free) reports available in my links.

TLDR:
-had to make 3 different sets for S4 before finally locking in on something good
-been reworking the latter half of the chapter to better fit the story pacing

Again, more deets in the links below.
Much love!
JB

Please keep up the good work. You're amazing!
Never forget that.

No worries. Keep keepin' on. It's the holidays we all get it. If we get that urge we can always replay the works you've already provided.

Hey Homies,

Check my links for the full progress report

Here's the TLDR:

-Working on a large scene (lots of props/people) but I think it's looking incredible
-The new GPU has been working wonders to improve scene quality

That's all, folks!
Much love
JB

Hey homies, links to the reports are in the sig.

TLDR:
-working on one of the first split scenes involving the player's weapon choices
-rearranged and shuffled scenes as previously mentioned
-The number of scenes is still the same so apart from some possible name changes later the report should stay the same

Much love!
JB

Sorry, this is a glitch that was meant to be fixed with the patch, long story short there was an even worse error in the patch and I've been too busy to fix it

Hey all,
Check my links for the full reports
TLDR:
-Work is busy with the holiday rush and I've been feeling burnt out
-Holidays are close and I'll finally be able to get some actual work done

That's all.
Much love!
JB

There are a few work around for this, but they may not be worth it to you.

Option 1
Play the game with the intent to pursue Cordi. When you reach this point.
CordiChoice.jpg
End it.

Option 2

just before the error use the console to define cordirom1. problem is the console is disabled by default, so you will need to enable the console first. (If anybody would like instructions on how to do this, let me know.)

Option 3

Wait for the next update. I'm sure Jabbonk will get this fixed for the next release.

I was confused at first, but I understand your confusion now. I don't number the reports based on the week of the year, I number them based on how long it's been since the previous update. So it's been 20 weeks since the last release.

Hey all,

The report sucks this week because of all the end-of-year rush stuff at work and trying to get last-minute Xmas stuff done before everything closes. After Xmas stuff, I should be able to get some actual work done.

Much love!

Hey Homies,

Links below for full reports (Be warned, I was a wordy bitch this week, so the full report is on the longer side)

TLDR:
-Updated the report to be more accurate to the chapter size
-taking time off last week helped fight past December writer's-block
-finally turned a lot of rough notes and patchy dialogue into a proper script

That was most of the important stuff I think.
Much love!
JB
