Weekly progress report #85
Added 2021-08-08 19:04:43 +0000 UTCFinally! Blake's well-earned red carpet. Is it a Grammy or an AVN award for the best anal scene? Who cares. Blake is now famous, it doesn't matter how he got there.
Hello! Time for our regular progress report. And you know everything already: the new demo is finished, I'm currently working with the last of v0.3/v0.4 scenes that I'm going to remake (~12 pictures left, that's almost zero). Tomorrow I'll start preparing the new updated walkthrough, really looking forward to it, and I'm still waiting for your feedback. You have bugs to report? Typos to show me? Or maybe you just want to share your thoughts? I'm dying to hear all that!
What I'm dying to talk about, however, is the future of Shattered. Look at this picture. Specifically, at the background. This is where Blake is going to move soon. Deliverance. Honestly, the more I think about it, the more I realise that I simply won't be able to make some of the important decisions myself. For example, the ending I see for one specific route is a real downer. I just can't see it end well. But according to my Discord poll, this route is surprisingly popular, and one thing I hate to do is disappointing people. I let my creativity roam free, but I'm sure we all can find some examples when an artist (or an «artist» in my case) just goes nuts, and ruins their own creation. We don't want that to happen. Which is why I need your help. And this, of course, was a pathetic attempt at bringing you to my top Patreon tier. Ha.
Anyway, the work continues, and v0.13 is going to ship soon, which means I better start preparing for v0.14 already. In this kind of job even one day of laziness might eventually cost you a ruined deadline, and we're already one week into August. Better pump it up.
So, that's about it. Thank you very much for your time, and have a nice day!

2021-08-11 06:56:31 +0000 UTCJust tiny sample of some things I noticed, mostly typos spanning a small portion of the demo within one story path, some obvious grammer issues too like using "this" instead of "that" and so forth. There's a lot more than I showed here including some mistakes in these pictures which I forgot to highlight, like in the picture where I highlighted the word "kidpanned" which should be "kidnapped" there is also a mistake where it says "I'll" instead of "I" which I forgot to highlight etc. https://drive.google.com/file/d/19_PjP_ydMTvtvjVH67ziJtUTEZ0podIQ/view?usp=sharing

2021-08-10 23:21:59 +0000 UTCThat's because I never actually spellcheck my demos. My goal is to release it as fast as I could, I'll be fixing all that for the public version (after all, I'll have to go through the script again to update the walkthrough), but any help will be very welcome :)

2021-08-09 06:56:19 +0000 UTCThere can be a way. But would it be satisfactory? I mean, given Blake's, and his love interest's arc… I'm not sure. Gotta think about it.

2021-08-09 06:55:04 +0000 UTCThere is a large amount of spelling mistakes and such in the latest demo, I'll try to take some screenshots of the obvious ones that I come across but you will need someone with more patience and free time to go through it more thoroughly, jotting them all down covering all possible story routes.

2021-08-09 01:05:25 +0000 UTCBlake is looking amazing. I don't know about the route you mention (don't even know which one you mean) but surely there can't be *no* way that it works out?
