Time for some renovations!

What's been done?

• Finished the Android build
• Finished the script conversion script
•    This will shave of days for me, I'll still need to do some things myself, but the brunt of it will be taken care of by this little script =3
• Improvements 
• Bugfixes

After the last build we took some time off for the holidays, be social and shit. We tend to get a bit crazy as a deadline nears, really overworking ourselves, so we could sure use it! When the New year started though, it was time to get back to it.. Time to slay that Android beast once and for all!

To my surprise I discovered that they quietly implemented the support of dev tools in the built-in Android emulator, making my work a lot easier! It's still not perfect, but it sure helps and saves me a lot of time =3. Speaking of time, I wrote up a little python script that will handle translating the script Newman writes into something that Ren'py can read. Whenever someone changes their expression or get an extra (sigh, blush, etc.) that's a new line, the text also needs to put in quotes as well as a bunch of other stuff. Now that might not sound like a lot, but when people change expression nearly every line with extra's showing and hiding, it starts adding up. This script will clear up a lot of time for me every build! =D

Now what do I mean by renovations? Well, with most of the core mechanics finally in place I can start improving them (The work of a coder never ends T.T).  Some things were patched up to hit a deadline and while they do work, they aren't very efficient. And something things were just left out alltogether (like portraits appearing on the right). So whenever I didn't have time to do something, had to rush it or simply had a cool idea I added it to a list, a list I can finally start working on! It even has some fan suggestions =D

But what about the videos!? Don't worry, I've been working on that too. I've got my new mic all set up and am playing a but with equalizer settings, to make my voice a bit smoother (I have no clue what I'm doing T.T). I have also set up a Plexstorm account so I can do livestreams. I'll probably do the first stream this week, just a little test stream, to see if everything works and will then start on the first tutorial video.

I haven't made up my mind yet whether or not I want to do more dev streams. I can't imagine it's interesting watching a guy code, but if you guys want I could do it more often =3

Hope to see you guys at my next stream!
