That was a busy month.
I believe everyone is interested first and foremost in what are progress has been during the last few weeks.
So let us dive in.
The good
- Over 750 renders last month alone. High quality. We have finished the first chapter in regards to what we had planned in scenes (And even added some scenes).
I want to improve the Nora lewd scenes still, that most likely will happen at some point in the next 2 weeks. And I am sure we'll polish several corners at some point before 0.2.0.
But we were a lot faster than I thought and I am really happy about that!
Also there is a surprise that should be added during November.
- Sunday Events are in. Kind of a similar point as the last one because of the renders being a huge part of that. I still wanted to mention it, as I feel like the Sunday events really add to the game.
- We did a test build every single week.
- A ton of bug fixes and improvements
The bad
- Every single test build was broken in one way or another.
We had to reupload on Monday several times and I have not yet managed to put a lit on that.
- Gold is only coming next week.
- Economy is done properly yet.
- The second chapter has not much added yet.
We've had over 10 people signing up for Platinum and about 70-80% have stayed for another month. So overall I think we did a good job - especially on the visuals.
For November I believe it will slightly slow down in regards to rendering (But we still have many scenes). Because we also need to do some modelling. But not just that, the UI needs to be polished/replaced and finalized for Silver. We struggled with that quite a bit - so here is to hoping the final result will look great regardless.
The weekly test builds on platinum I expect to continue.
Test Builds
Weekly Builds are not meant to be bugfree, they get tested minimally. Technical feedback is not as much needed as on other builds. That being said, they shouldn't be as buggy as they have been either.
I am saying this to manage expectations to some degree. I might also add a Testbuild feedback channel in the coming weeks. So any testbuild feedback can be posted directly there.
For now I believe it's informative to keep them open.
Coming Gold Build
The currently biggest reasons I see not to upgrade to the coming gold build:
- Video decoder still not implemented.
- Economy still not in a final stage.
- Writing edits and polishing will be done later.
- Second Chapter content still sparce.
- Bugs
I do hope the wait time to the silver build is shorter, but cannot guarantee it.
Thank you for your support. We will try to give our best to make sure November is not going to be any less interesting.
