November Progress Update

Hey everyone, as you may have deduced I've decided to delay releasing the public demo once again. I've been reading some more feedback and its clear that things still need some more polish before releasing it publicly. To that end, I've continued to make some more technical improvements to the game.

In particular, I've made some pretty significant quality of life improvements to the settings menu. Specifically I've added a mouse sensitivity slider, a field of view slider, more graphical display settings, and rebindable key mappings. If there's anything else that people request I'll try to add that in as well.

As for bug fixes, the time of day should now actually be saving correctly for real this time. What still needs to be fixed however is Kyra's current pregnancy progress not being saved as well as the free camera inventory bug. I'll continue to work on those issues this month and should hopefully have them solved for the next build.

Something I neglected to mention in the last release post is that the modelling and texturing for the Inoru Mantis is now completed. Here's how he looks!

 The next step is rigging and then I can finally begin animating. With that said the other technical items discussed above will take precedence so don't expect to see him in this month's build or the public demo.

Regarding the current timeline for things, my new plan is to release the next build at the end of this month as per usual, and then release the public demo sometime between early to mid December. Things have been a little hectic for me as I've also been moving into a new apartment this month however once its done I'll finally have a proper dual monitor setup which should help a bit with productivity. And on a final note, I know I keep promising to share the actual game title however I promise its coming soon...plus maybe some additional information on who may also be inhabiting the island that Kyra has journeyed to...

Anyways that's it for now, take care!
