Devlog #6: Save the date!
Added 2025-04-28 17:50:19 +0000 UTCHello there beautiful people! I come bringing you news of a release date!
Progress has been good and steady, and with me being confident that I can fully wrap up Gemma's content by the end of this week, I'm prepared to give you a solid release date!
May 15th!
It falls 5 days later than the 47 day hard deadline I'd originally set for myself, and while 5 days may not be too long, a delay is still a delay and for that I apologize, and would like to explain why I need those extra 5 days.
There are two main reasons:
1. The update is BIG. Bigger than I had originally planned. I'll give you some numbers; The initial release had somewhere around 750 renders total and 7 animations. The upcoming update has about 500 renders and 8 animations... for Adrianna's omniscient events ALONE. Add onto them Gemma and Marissa's events + forum posts, not to mention the forum side story that requires more animations and we're looking at a hefty chunk of content coming your way!
2. The new forum UI is clean, but way more menial to work on. Compared to the old UI, implementing new posts takes about 50% more time, given there are way more elements on the screen to work on.
With that being said, I'd like to apologize again for the short delay, and I hope the content that the update delivers will make up for it.
Thank you for your support!
PS: I haven't forgotten about the Gemma previews I promised you last week.
