A quick progress report about where things are at. I'm chipping away at Part 7, slowly, but steadily. This last month has been~... extremely busy work wise for me, so I've had very little free time to do much of anything on the project (barely fucking time to sleep...). However, I have started some of the art and finished up the last of the missing writing bits.
Today I finished the blocking step. That is putting all the characters (very, very) roughly in place, some temp art, other stuff to make it "playable" even if it has things such as backgrounds that say "[image] goes here". This helps me figure out how much art I'll need to make as playing is much clearer than reading for me.
Right now (incomplete and still in early alpha) Part 7 is just over a 1000 lines of dialogue and looks like it will need roughly ~30 art elements (some of the simple ones I've already done), with several images having multiple pose or sub parts to them. Or, in short, a lot more fucking work to do.
While again I don't know when the next update from Ferdafs will arrive (I'm guessing not this month, but, who knows) my plan is to pour a bunch of time into the project and try and get it mostly ready~ish before Sept. That should give us a lot of time to polish, vs the Part 6 where we weren't exactly ready and had to scramble last minute. Current plan remains the same, include the new content (if it is ready) with the new Update from Ferdafs, whenever that arrives.
Anyhow, thanks for being awesome!
