The Pill Conversion Update #4
Added 2025-01-24 02:14:11 +0000 UTCHey all, just another update to the work we're doing on The Pill conversion!
The core game 1-5 has been built (with the new voices) and the standard functions have been tested. Massive thanks to Lady Grove and our developer Valkern for making that come to life!
I've spent the last few weeks remaking the Luca vids, remaking the achievements and building all the expressions for Chapter 6. While I was doing that, Lady Grove finished coding the bones of Chapter 6, and is now busy re-testing all the final bits of chapter 1-5 with the new achievements (and doing a general polish). Meanwhile I'm on to the sound design for Chapter 6.
Still a long way to go, but I'm quietly optimistic for our release at the end of the month!
Also, if you missed it - just one last shout out for any Colossal Contributors who have never contacted us before to DM us with their chosen name if you want to be included in the games credits! (If you have contacted us at any point in the past don't worry, you'll still be included).

That is the end goal for sure and will likely happen in a future update. They are good animations so be fun to have them appear.

2025-02-03 21:17:20 +0000 UTCIs there any chance you can add the finished ending animations to the end of the appropriate chapters? It would be so nice to see the ending to the path you just played through. If not, no worries, but if you could, would you?

2025-01-29 17:23:33 +0000 UTCThank you for the kind words but I'm afraid there is no new belly expansion content in Chapter 6.
Lady Grove
2025-01-27 23:21:44 +0000 UTCWill there be any belly expansion in this next chapter? The last couple chapters that had it were great!

2025-01-24 08:14:01 +0000 UTCThat's very kind and I hear ya. LG has developed a special look in her eye when I say "I had this new idea we can add in!" that equates to "Oh no you fucking didn't!" But seriously I appreciate the understanding.

2025-01-24 05:57:07 +0000 UTCThis is the correct take. Imagine the progress bars of chapters 1-5 being zoomed in on the very last stage. I felt it was worth changing the graphic because it's a different headspace - previously it was a pure re-creation of The Pill, but now we've got the final code from our developer we can start reworking elements (such as the achievement images and some menu images etc). Basically if this was only a pure remake of v0.6 then that is already done and we'd be releasing. It's the stuff we're updating which needs re-testing.

2025-01-24 05:50:59 +0000 UTCThat's very kind of you. If we launch it and everyone can play it without a single bug then I'll take that as enough of a win. 😅

2025-01-24 05:40:54 +0000 UTCY'all're killing it, good shit. I think you guys have earned a few weeks off after this, as far as I'm concerned

2025-01-24 02:35:25 +0000 UTCI am fairly sure that, since they're all finished, they're only counting that final two steps for them, just the achievement images and the final testing for the final build. Based on the optimism behind the release being in track (and the lack of their inclusion in the OG posts like this), they gotta be pretty confident these steps won't take too long

2025-01-24 02:34:07 +0000 UTCWait, what happened? I thought Chapters 1-5 were almost finished, now it only looks like they're half-finished.
SuuLucoa
2025-01-24 02:28:45 +0000 UTCI am quietly optimistic that you take a break when finished. It is obvious from the start this was a colossal undertaking, and you have done stuff on top of it. Ya gotta look after your health man.
