Chapter 2 - Progress Report
Added 2024-07-31 12:35:14 +0000 UTCHeya guys!
How've you been? I hope everyone's doing well and that you all had an amazing month.
First of all, I'd like to thank everyone here for your support. I really appreciate it. I didn't expect Wild Cats would be received this well. It hasn't been even a month yet, and I have so many of you here supporting me already. And I, for one, feel extremely lucky.
Next, I'd like to announce a couple features I'm planning to implement in the game:
Named saves
Character screen/bio as well as to show the current points and relationship you have with the girls.
A better main menu (animated)
Scene gallery
If there are any more features you'd like to see aside from the ones above, let me know. I'm open to ideas. My DMs are open for all of you (both on Discord and here).
With that out of the way, next is the progress status of Chapter 2 so far:
250 renders
2 animations
4.5k words
1.4K lines of code
Yep... As soon as I put out the first chapter... I immediately jumped in to work on Chapter 2. I'll be ramping up these numbers soon. I honestly suck with estimates, so if I had to guess, this should be around 15-20% of Chapter 2 already.
There is something I'm debating for Chapter 2, however. And that's whether or not I will cut it into two parts. The reason is because the planned content for Chapter 2 is about the same length as Chapter 1 currently has. While the length is fine and all, the amount of effort I'll be exerting in Chapter 2 would be twice as much. But I understand that more releases mean more exposure. And more exposure means more growth. I'll announce it here in public once I've made a decision. But if there's something I CAN promise, it's that I'll be releasing something this year.
Lastly, I'll be using all of the donations you've all given me this month to upgrade my PC. Believe it or not, I made chapter 1 with a PC comparable to that of a toaster. So having a more powerful one means better quality renders (I plan to render in 8k and downscale it to 2k size) and faster setup time.
That's all for today.
To all of you once again, thank you. You guys have no idea how much motivation you are giving me. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a DM.
I give you my heartfelt thanks.

Well, regarding the possible additions to the second chapter, they are largely welcome, especially the one about the character information screen. I know there will be no spoilers about this, but I find myself thinking about what it will be like, from the interface to the amount of information that will be present in it and, most importantly, whether the information present there will have an impact on the story, especially, like: a certain character he likes something and has this information in his biography, and at some point a doubt or question will arise about the tastes of that same character. Something silly, but it would give you a better feeling when reading the information about each character and knowing that your new knowledge became useful in the technical part of the game About some points in the post, I don't have much to comment, as I wouldn't add much on these topics, such as improvements on the PC (I'm a loyal cell phone user) Regarding whether or not to split the first chapter, both scenarios have their advantages: in the first, where the chapter would be posted completely at once, it would be a situation in which the game would have a major update, with new content and hours to be played. however, at the cost of it taking a while for this launch to happen; in the second scenario, with the division of the chapter into parts, there would be a greater frequency of updates, consequently increasing the dissemination of the game and also the arrival of new content, but again, all this at the expense of smaller updates, compared to the first scenario . In general, the points covered are things that you already know and the final decision is up to you, in the end my heart is full of emotion just waiting for more content from the angel on earth called Lexi
