Hey guys!
I wanted to share with you some of my thoughts about what’s to come.
Sorry for repeating some stuff I’ve said in the past, but I know there are a lot of new people here, so I’d rather repeat some things.
I had a huge project these past months that kept me very busy at my day job and made it a bit difficult for me to juggle between that and LSS, but I feel like I still managed to make good enough progress.
That project is now over, and I usually have some downtime before a new one starts, which will allow me to catch up on some stuff.
In the past, I used to update the game more frequently with smaller updates. Some liked it, and some hated it. In the end, I switched to one big update.
I recently decided that I’d like to try smaller, more frequent updates again. There are a bunch of reasons, but the main one is that I’d like to pump out content faster and get feedback on smaller portions of the game. I feel like both me and you can gain from that.
Usually, when I work on a version, I’m all over the place. I can start from the closing scene, then jump to a middle scene, and so on. In the previous update, I tried working in a more linear way, and that will let me release parts of the updates faster.
I bet some of you don’t like it and would rather wait for a big update. If that’s the case, you can just skip the smaller updates and decide which one you want to play. I’ll try to be better with patch notes so you can decide if you want to play or skip.
Currently, I finished the car ride with Ann and the new audition they drove to, plus an additional scene with Emily, and a scene with Vanessa and her mom. Since I’m still rendering the images, I believe I can squeeze in another scene and release it as an update.
Another thing is that I’m currently implementing translation support. This version will allow anyone who wants to translate the game to do so easily. The first
official languages I plan to support are Simplified Chinese, Portuguese, Russian, and French. You could still add your own if you'd like.
I'll have to see about adding more official languages because once I add it, I'll have to keep supporting it for people who might buy the game knowing it supports that language.
People ask me daily when the next update is. Well, I don’t really know. When I believe I can release an update within 2–3 weeks, I usually announce it.
For 2025, I hope to release way more exciting stuff!
Cheers ,
TTrick.
