Hello everyone, dear supporters! Let's dive into our weekly development update.
This will be the penultimate weekly update before the release of the Chapter 02 remake. Each week, I manage to complete another step towards this highly anticipated revamped chapter. Once again, thank you all for your patience with this remake. It ended up taking longer than I anticipated, but since I'm not great at estimating timelines for my projects, I'd rather delay a bit and deliver a perfectly reworked chapter.
I always like to formalize things in these posts so that new patrons are properly updated. The Chapter 02 remake is taking more time to complete because it will be twice the size of the original version, requiring more development time. Finally, we are at the penultimate weekly update before the release of this chapter.
Let's talk a bit about what I'm working on right now. I'm still working on the dialogues throughout the entire chapter and making good progress. I've been able to play through a good portion of Chapter 02, and everything is going very well. I've added some animations in the right places and am incorporating the dialogues and images into the rest of the chapter. Once all that is done, all that's left is to add the sound effects and new music.
I think most of you already know, but it's worth reinforcing: the images are far superior to the original version, with new cinematic animations being added, dialogues with more interaction and fluidity, and new codes organizing all player choices correctly this time. These are the main modifications in the Chapter 02 remake.
During these last few weeks, I'll be wrapping up all the new dialogues, fitting the new images and animations into the correct places in the story, and starting post-production with sound effects and new music.
Everyone, I owe you some images from last month. I'll post them this week, okay? I apologize for the delay; I got caught up in finishing the remake and forgot to post the Girl of the Month for July. But don't worry, I'll do it without fail this week, along with the exclusive images for the $25 Tier. The delay was for a good cause.
Without further ado, let's get to the numbers! I had to create some more images. A scene between the MC and Anabelle and another between the MC and Rebecca ended up without images, so I had to create new ones. I also added more images at the end of the chapter, significantly increasing the number of static images already created. Before, we had 1300 images ready; now, we have a little over 1400.
In some scenes, I included short cinematic animations of approximately 15 seconds (some a bit more, some less) just to give more movement to specific scenes. We have some hot scenes, but they aren't as explicit as in the old version. Now, there is more romance and intimate moments that bring the scenes to life. Before, the hot scenes in the old version felt a bit forced, with sex lacking much interaction with Anabelle, Lily, or Myuki. Now, we have romantic moments with all of them and hot scenes that make more sense, creating a strong desire to interact with them. It feels much more natural.
Another interesting thing is that, although the MC's initial weakness of falling for all the girls is still present, it is not as apparent as before. In the old version, the MC would call everyone 'love' and end up with all of them, which didn't make much sense. Now, we have a charming and seductive MC who, when around those he trusts, becomes a big, playful child, adding a touch of comic relief.
I'll leave some random images from the remake here to illustrate the update. Please don't hesitate to send me messages if you need more clarification about the remake. A big hug to everyone.
