Book 2: Chapter 18 Exclusive Release

Chapter 18 - My Time with Them

Too long, didn't read at the bottom

Hi, it's finally up; this took 34 days by my count, but this time it really did need that much time. I was free the whole time I was doing this, as I said.

Normally, I'd pour in 4–8 hours every day for a chapter; this chapter came in at 8–12 hours a day. I even worked on it for 14 hours last weekend. I didn't see this coming, that the process of developing would take this long. Even with that much time; I just did a quick run-through of the game and noticed a few things I want to change and flesh out.
If you want a smoother experience: wait until tomorrow(I need a clearer head to do this part), but only the transitions and sound editing will be different. Otherwise, just play it now.

This chapter has around 1300 renders and 11 animations. Note: (This is I, trying to save up as much render time as possible.)

As to why I spent so many hours on this chapter, I'd like to use pizza sizes as an example:

2x 12-inch pizza is smaller than a 1x 18-inch pizza

What I'm meaning to say is that:

2x chapters at around 700-800 render each takes less time(hour-based) than this chapter with 1300 renders.

The amount of rewriting, transitioning, and drawing parallels and connections between scenes past and present I had to do for this chapter is staggering.
Not to mention the precise details in the speech and the personality of each character. I'll post the more important ones on the behind-the-scenes content on the day of public release.
It was an absolute challenge but I did it, it's done. As I said; all heroines are in this chapter.; so look forward to that, but the fanservice is way less in this one compared to the previous,  so if that is what you're after, then I suggest waiting for the next chapter. *Wink*

Also for a clearer view of why this chapter took so long to make:

Down below are our top 3 longest chapters for comparison:

Documentation - Font(Calibri, 11)

Chapter 15 = 72 pages
Chapter 16 = 83 pages
Chapter 18 = 111 pages

Lines of Code(Rounded off)

Chapter 15 = 4100
Chapter 16 = 4000
Chapter 18 = 4700

What's in this chapter?

Well, you're already paying for early access so I don't think I need to pitch this chapter to you. Other than all the heroines progressing their story; there's not much I want to say, just let my work speak for itself.

The walkthrough will be updated around 2-3 days from now but if there's someone who needs it right away, send me a message and I'll update it first thing tomorrow.

For the polls:

The title is right there, and it was a landslide victory. 

For Kanehana's outfit, play the game.

The mobile wallpaper poll will be closed tomorrow.

Wooooh, I've been talking for quite a bit now, and yet there's still more I want to say but I'm winded out and actually forgetting some of it.. I'll save that for next time.

Updated 11/20/2022:
-Added Gallery
-Added missing sound effects
-Adjusted scene transitions

TL;DR:
The chapter was a pain in the ass, less fanservice, more story, did the best I could, hope u enjoy!
