it seems to me consistent:
worked on the images; then he prepared the animation (as he said on September 28).
now the animation is ready (scene creation) and only needs to be rendered.
Then there are some outline images, writing and package to do.
there is a logical thread, the execution times that are excessive are out of order
I'm sorry mate, but in what world is this consistent?


April 15th (More than 6 months ago!!)-
Hey, everyone.

Just reporting that I'm slowly chipping out of the next update. It's going well so far. There's more work to do, but I'm happy with the results. I'm still considering between two options for the last event of the update, both seem interesting to me, but only one can fit here. I will likely decide in the last moment when I reach that point.
(Let that sink in for a moment. He's been talking about this "last event" more than 6 months ago. What exactly is going well here? What results?)


July 18th-

Hi, everyone.

I'm about to start working on the last event of the update. I was hoping I could finish it all this month, but seeing that we're already in the second half of it, that won't happen. The scene is rather complex, with choices and branches. So next month it is. I was telling myself not to give release dates, because of how bad I've been in keeping them for the last year. But next month, dead or alive, I'm releasing the update.

Thanks for the support, and have fun.

August 14th-
No beta versions this time, I'll release the update only when it's complete. I'm still aiming at that end of the month release target, but if I miss it, you know the drill - I'll send the links to the patrons from this month as each tier release happens.

Have fun, and thanks for the support.

August 28th-
Only a few days remaining till the end of the month and I'm certain I won't make it with the update by then. I'm 50 or so images deep in the last scene, but there's more to do. And a couple of animations, these alone will take a week.
(A week for the animations. A week? As in, 7 days?. Lmao)


September 28th-

And... oh yeah, the update. Working on the last images, and I have one animation to finish. So, almost there. I'll write a comment to this post when all the graphics are ready and the update will be released a couple of days after that.

October 8th-

(From 1 Animation back to 2 Animations with one being in the render process. See previous quote for facepalm material)


October 21st-

Rendering the final animation at the moment. After that I have to make several closing images and do the final work on the script and packaging.
(2 weeks later, still 1 Animation to render and from previously "working on the last images" to "some more images", to now "several images"...)


Call me crazy, but I don't believe for a second that this update will be released in less than 4 weeks. And even that is questionable, as it's basically a rollercoaster ride. More images, less images, more images...1 animation, 2 animations, 1 animation...and so on.

If we add all that together we must get something like 800 renders and 8 animations update,right?

Indeed, he already lost all credibility

  • Yeah, I canceled my pledge. This is a very promising game, but not 30+ bucks per update promising.
    The author needs to revise his workflow. The Ren'Py scripting can easily be done during the rendering process, even with placeholder images if necessary. And so can optimization (of the already finished renders) and translation.
  • I just can't help it... :KEK:

I mean, my post wasn't really just meant to be aimed at Pietruccio. Wouldn't really call him a whiteknight either. He's usually quite critical and realistic about developers and their projects, especially in another thread were both of us participate from time to time. He is totally aware that stoper is terribly slow and that something is wrong, but he's also a fan and basically doing what fans do. I can't blame anyone for that. There are other people who are actually blind when it comes to stoper, but I wouldn't count him to the dickrider faction. ;)

I think we all are pretty sick of stoper's meaningless devblogs and the constant downhill ride for the past 2 years. Would be nice if that wasn't the case. The game itself is great...unfortunately I might add, as it means that we all come back here from time to time just to get disappointed for the most part. I do hope that things get better next year, but we all know the chances for that to happen are slim to none. Don't think stoper's new GPU will change anything. Oh well..
