Happy Friday, patrons! Here is the first shot of update 0.4. Probably. I might go with a wide establishing shot first. But right now this is the first, so that's good enough! ;)
It is now one week since the release of 0.3, and, unfortunately, I don't have much to report to you about 0.4. It is under construction and I've got most of the first scene planned out, so rendering is happening as I type this. But I don't yet have a firm idea for how big 0.4 will be, so I can't really give you an estimate.
One of the problems I'm having is I'm trying to also figure out 0.5 as I'm working on 0.4. The reason I'm doing that is because of Christmas.
I figure I can probably get 0.4 out by the 8th of November. If I do that then 0.5 would probably come out mid-Decenber. That should work, but it's close. If I cut it too close to Christmas, then interest in the update would be low. It's pretty much the same reason you don't really want to release updates on Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
There will be some Halloween-specific renders I release to Patreon and probably on Discord as well.
There will be no Christmas special, though I'm sure there'll be some Christmas-themed renders.
By next week I should have a pretty good idea of the size of 0.4 and 0.5 and a pretty good estimate for when it'll be done and where I'm currently at. Hope you all have great weeks!
