Plans for the future builds
Added 2021-03-31 16:40:52 +0000 UTCRn I plan to release the upcoming build on Saturday, April the 2nd.
Plans:
I want to get the main storyline of Chapter 1 done asap (mid-May build) and then catch up with the sidestory events in the following 2 builds, builds that will solely be focused on the general game polish, combat mechanics (Lust mechanic, etc.), WRITING, pacing, NPCs (vendors) parallaxes and sidestories+their events... All that flavour and filling. Since I want Chapter 1 to be fleshed out properly so it feels like an actual full game experience before I get to start on Chapter 2 main story.
Though I plan to end Chapter 1 with a bang. And considering this 'bang' will be the first long event/scene that I will do, I don't know how long it will take me... And frankly, I want it to be top tier stuff. (Also I wanna finally get to draw that scene. I've been wanting to draw it since like February.) So the mid-May build will be about that event/scene first and foremost. I know it won't take me a full month and a half to do that one scene (though I want it to be a loooong high quality scene more than worthy of being a Chapter 1 finale). But I don't want the scene to be spoiled before the release of the mid-May build, so I won't share any sneak pics of it. Yada yada...
Tl;dr:
2nd of April: build 0.1.7
mid-May: build 0.1.9 (main story Chapter finale event)
late June-early July: build 0.2 (filling in the world relevant to the Chapter 1)
+
Hope I can get all the side stories up to pace in a single 45 day period if not, then the following build will also be just to fill in the events, mechanics, npcs relevant to the Chapter 1.
After that: Chapter 2.
