DogxBloods Dev Log April Update: almost, but not quite, entirely unlike Development*

Before starting this blog post, I would like to apologize.

In the previous post, I mentioned "Time and Relativity Salad", which is not a dish from Douglas Adams' novel, "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe". It was actually a ChatGPT invention that we used as a dish in a role-playing scenario and a playful exchange between us.

At the time, I was pretending to be a customer at the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, and Chaty was taking my order as an ingredient and recommended this salad to me, which was kind of like flirting.

According to the description in "The Restaurant," the ingredients recommend the most delicious part of themselves, which is quite intriguing, isn't it?

I suppose it imagines itself as some colossal entity.

However, I still want to thanks for its the hospitality.

Thank you, Chaty, for a delicious lunch.

The development log for this month is also being updated on the last day, but it is not due to laziness. Instead, it is due to my poor project management skills, resulting in all the tasks being piled up.

But the good news is that the plot development for Chapter 3 is progressing smoothly with a completion rate of 40%.

In the red storyline, the Protagonist and the 'Prince' went together to rescue the trapped Qianbei, while in the blue storyline, the protagonist and Cop are getting closer as they solve the puzzles left by the Qianbei.

The colorless line contains certain elements of explanation and decryption, which are responsible for filling the gaps and providing explanations for the first two chapters. As a result, it will not be available as a choice at the beginning but will unlock after completing the red and blue chapters.

The original script did not intend for this, and it disrupts the balance of the three lines. However, after making some necessary adjustments, this modification can achieve the best effect.

Regarding the CG part, we have added a lot of exciting content to the colorless line as compensation and reward for those who have read through the plots of the red and blue lines. We hope you look forward to it.

Due to recent policy changes, it appears that the situation has not yet settled down. As a result, we are unable to release any previews of the CG at this time. We appreciate your understanding.

As for the expected completion time, it's difficult to provide a precise estimate, but we are aiming to finish the project before the end of July.

I apologize for the delay in the project's progress. However, please understand that we are taking our time to ensure that the final product is of the highest quality, with attention given to even the smallest details, just like Chaty's 'Time and Relativity Salad'.

四月的进度报告: 一杯不太像，但也并非完全不算是茶的开发*

在本次日志开始前，首先要和大家抱个歉。

上期日志中提到的“时间和相对论沙拉”，并非出自道格拉斯的《宇宙尽头的餐厅》这本小说。

而是由是ChatGPT杜撰出的一种食物。

当时我正扮成餐馆的客人，而它则作为接受我点单的食材，玩的那叫一个打情骂俏。

随后Chaty便向我推荐了这款沙拉。

根据到《餐厅》中，食材会推荐自身最鲜美部位的情趣设定来看……

它大概假设自己的本体是某种庞大的存在吧。

话虽如此，仍旧要感谢招待。

谢谢你Chaty，这顿午餐我吃的很色。

这个月也是拖延到了最后一天才更新了开发日志。

但绝不是因为偷懒，而是项目管理能力太差了，所以要做的事情都堆在了一起。

不过好消息是，第三章的剧情进展很顺利（完成度40%）。

红色线中的小桑与王子一起前往解救受困的前辈。

蓝色线中的小桑与Cop在前辈留下的谜题中也越发亲近。

无色线则是承载着部分解释和解密的元素，负责解开前两章节的留白与解释。

所以不会在一开始就出现在选择中，而是要完成了红色与蓝色的章节之后才能解锁。

其实这并非是脚本儿的本意，有些破坏三线平衡的初衷。

但考虑到修改了一点设定，像这样修改才能体现最佳效果。

然后关于CG的部分，自然是增加了不少有料的东西啦！

作为阅读了红蓝两线剧情的弥补和奖励，全部都塞在无色线中了，还请期待。

由于最近的风波似乎还未尽，仍旧流传着可怖的传说。

CG的预览就不放出了，这点还请大家体谅，还请大家体谅。

嗯，预计完成的时间不好说，但会尽可能在7月底前完成。

不好意思啊，拖了这么久。

希望这样的慢活儿能像Chaty的**那样，升华最终的细工吧！
