Weekly progress report #124

Pretty girls :)

Hello! Time for our regular progress report. Not much to talk about, really.

I was mostly waiting for your feedback, and getting rest after the release of the latest demo this week, and haven't done much work. I did, however, remake some of the scenes from v0.5 (specifically, Melinda's videochat, Samuel's dream sequence, Kushari's kitchen sex scene, and Stewart's short bookstore event). Added several new pictures as well. Aside from that, I've been mostly sorting out assets for the next demo, and coming up with ideas. Some of them you'll see in the polls next week.

I also fractured my foot last Friday, so now I don't have to go to work, and can spend more time on Shattered. Which is very good. This last demo will probably be the most important since… I don't know. Forever, I guess, as we're leaving the city, and moving to Deliverance. By the way, how many of you have figured out how exactly Dommie will make Melinda «accept» her invitation? Tell me about it in the comments :)

Still, there's a lot of unfinished business, even though I did give some conclusion to Kushari, Kira, Zoey, Tanya, Reese, Taeng… Notice how many trans girls we're losing. That's not good. I better come up with good replacement for them. After all, Blake does feel a bit more comfortable surrounded by similar girls, right? I'm still thinking whether or not Nariko should have a dick. She actually has a backstory (those who paid attention to Iris's dialogues already figured out what this backstory is), which makes me lean towards not giving it to her, but… you know. Oh, and did I mention that she's getting a rework? Yeah, the second one. I still can't make her look the way I want her to look, but I'm getting closer. You'll see soon.

Anyway, that's about it. Don't forget: I'm still waiting for your feedback about the demo, I love you all, and wish you a nice day! :)

There's nothing wrong in not playing the demos :) If anything, it brings you significantly more coherent experience. After all, it's three months of work for me but only a couple of hours or so of story for you, so I can understand wanting to get it all in one go. The bugs, however, do persist, and I still find errors in the early versions just by accident. They're very well hidden. I often promise myself to get rid of some of the more labyrinthine paths, but this late into the story it's not possible, I'm afraid. Overall, even after the game is done (and I do believe we're 85–90% through), I'll have a field day with remaking the old acts, and making them look, and read better.

If someone story wise it makes sense not to have a penis, I think that it's not necessary. As for trying out the demo, I am guilty of not trying them. I do try to participate in the votes and have played all the official released in the past year or more though and greatly enjoy your creation. I trust in your decisions, though I agree that going through the demo helps to spot potential crashes and bugs. So far I haven't really met any. You are really thorough in your planning I believe. I'm always excited for the next chapter and eventually the ending.

Nariko used to live in the slums, but left about five years ago or so. Again, I'm not sure if she should be related to Higashi or not, but perhaps. Iris does remember her (by name alone, they never saw each other in Deliverance), but Blake doesn't.

I kind of assumed that Nariko had a dick, though I don't think I picked up on what her backstory is.

More trans girls is never a bad thing lol
