It's time for the Royal candy to expand his team
If you want to deliver updates frequently and a good then you need a good team don't hier full timer's just have part time and it will be good
Or else people will loose trust in you
It's alrer being 3 months sinces the last update
And the next update will probably release in late march
So it doesn't make any different when your working on the game as part time as then you use to give update monthly and it was 250 renders update
And try to make updates in parts if needed

Your even loosing l
Patreon every month to

The episodes I was making before doing this full time were simpler.
They only had 2000-2500 lines of code, 250-350 renders and 5-15 animations (30 frames best case).
This episode has more than 5000 lines, around 1100 renders, 90 animations (120-960 frames). I have become more picky about my work so this is why it takes more time.
Only in January I have made 400+ renders and 22 animations.

Whoa, this update sounds like it's going to be well worth the wait ;)

That happens with every Patreon during down times, as soon as the update nears, you will see an uptick again...If they aren't a Pateron, then well, it shouldn't affect you much :whistle:

The problem with hiring people is that people suck, if they don't deliver you lose time looking for new ones, and it's management workload instead of creative workload.

Setting up a game studio and making a game are two entirely different skills.

Plus as far as I remember dev tried to hire, but people didn't deliver and disappeared, so time was wasted

royalcandy have you planned anything with Charlotte and Tris Marriage content and Pregnancy in future. Hope it will be great and kudos for your text and plotlines in the current game.

This is also my fault.
The really good artists are asking more than I can afford and the work I can afford is not to my liking so telling people over and over again to fix things even though in their opinion is looking good might not have a great impact on their willingness to work for me.
I also tried with more expensive artists and even though the results were really good, the amount of renders they were doing was very low. I had updates with 500-600 renders to make and they were only able to make like 50-100 in a month and I didn't liked that.
So like I said, I'm not the easiest person to work with, that's why I decided for a while to work alone.

On Monday I have made like 50 renders. Yesterday I was able to do like 60. When I had help I was barely making 25 renders in a day, because there was a lot preparations I needed to do for the artists, so for now I decided to work alone on the renders. The only help I'm looking for is on the animation side. That is my bottleneck and having someone to do animations would be amazing, but for the render parts I can handle them myself.

I do have something in my mind for them. I don't want to spoil too much, but there might be something sweet for those two.
As for pregnancy, even though it will be added in the game, it won't be added as a fetish. So a girl might be pregnant, but it will be like an endgame thing. So you might see the girl pregnant, but there won't be too much content. It will something like she's pregnant and the next render is the MC with the kid in his arms.

Weekly Report 235 - No More Money
You must be registered to see the links

Hi guys,
How is everybody doing? I hope you all had a wonderful week.
PROGRESS STATUS
For me this was an amazing week. It was the first week since I have started this update where nothing went wrong. I was able to do around 250 renders and a few animations as well. I want to believe that things will always be like this, but on Monday I'll start working on a new event that has about 25 animations and you already know that the animations are my number one enemy, but we'll see.
POLL RESULT
This week I have made a poll regarding the time between updates, which will be over in a few hours. I appreciate the fact that most of you voted for the first two options, that means a lot to me, because it looks like you trust me to do a good job, however that doesn't change the fact that the updates take more and more and I'm really sorry for that and I will fix this.
That being said, I wish you all a wonderful weekend and we'll talk next Friday.
Bests,
Jason
