Hello!
Not a whole lot to report on this week, truth be told. I've just been steadily working through the next scene. It's one that's quick and easy to pose, but takes a very long time to render, so I can get at the very most about 15 images done in a day, if my computer is on and just rendering for the full 24 hours, which isn't always the case (although has been the past two days). So progress is relatively slow, but consistent at least. And as there's a long queue to work through it gives me time to focus on finishing up some writing and coding, and do my best to make sure all the intricacies of the branching are correct.
We're still at 8/17 scenes, but I'm towards the end of the 9th scene now, it'll be done by the next dev log, and we're at a total of 644 renders. Things still seem to be tracking towards around a 1500 total for the chapter, so I'm still anticipating a release some time around March 2026.
Also, to those of you who may have joined as a result of my reddit post the other day, thank you! I'm planning on trying to be a little more active in self-promoting, although I don't especially like doing it for whatever reason. The post was well received, which was nice, and naturally I'd love to draw more eyes to the project. So I'm trying to venture out of my comfort zone in that regard, as self-promotion generally has never been something I've been especially comfortable with.
Thank you all once again for being here!
