Weekly progress report #117

You have caught the mischievous Easter bunny Blake! Rub his tail for good luck. Or something.

Hello. Time for our regular progress report. Feels like I'm writing the tenth billion one for this demo, and yet there's still at least one more to come. Well, hopefully just one. I'm making good progress so far. I don't remember what numbers I mentioned the last time, but since then I only had one day off, and aside from that I spent as much time as possible on developing this demo. One thing I have to mention is that people were complaining that Iris's route was lacking in the previous update, and I agree, I kinda dropped the ball on that one. Which is why there's gonna be whole three scenes for Iris here (you know what kind of scenes), and you'll get at least one of them guaranteed.

Those are already finished. Plus, there's Bree's scene (which we voted for), Dominique's scene, Melinda's true route scene, and a handful of non-route stuff — all made last week. There's gonna be some stuff with Pepper, Felix, and Josiah as well, but the latter might be a bit too big, so there's a chance of seeing it in the next demo. Anyway, as of right now I estimate this demo to be 66% finished (I mean, literally. It's three days, and two of them are done), and while I'm never 100% satisfied with the results, I like this one. Deliverance really lets me bring some fresh air into the story. All I need to do is to find the balance between the progression, and the fun stuff. But only you can tell me if I'm doing a good job at it.

Anyway, that's about it. Thank you, and have a nice day. For some reason I got buried under the avalanche of criticism this week. It's like a whole bunch of people found my game, and actively disliked it. Oh, well. Those are the things you gotta accept, right? :)
