Getting into it | Status Report #06

Getting back into the groove is certainly a challenge. After launching MGLH I took some time off, then I started working on CoM again, which hasn't been easy.

Rough Start

I don't wanna lie. Going back to CoM turned out to be more of a challenge than I expected. Especially the first few days I didn't get much done. Had trouble concentrating and always kinda wanted to run away from it. So I started slow. Allowed myself to take my time. Did a little here, a little there. In the end, I did get some stuff done.

What's new in CoM:

• I completed the planning for the changes I mentioned a few months ago.

• Then I started working on a new environment you can see above. There are two additional ones to go with it. All finished and ready to go.

• I also finished animating a new sex scene. The rendering is still happening though.

• And I wrote a few new events and rendered the images for them.

Not too much, but also not nothing. MGLH is a very freeing, very fun project, while CoM just comes with a lot of accumulated baggage. So I've decided to not fret it too much. To take my time and allow myself to be slow. Feel it out as I go and work on MGLH when I feel like I need some fresh air.

What's new in MGLH:

• I did a lot of changes to the minigame. Most people complained about the minigame being too demanding, so I've adjusted it a lot to be visibly clearer, easier and less stressful to play.

• I also did some changes to the UI in places where it seemed to be unclear, like how to switch locations.

• I also added options to recover stamina alongside the video game.

• I also added three new smalltalk events.

• And very slightly animated the living room background.

• Also fixed some typos.

That's it for this status report. It's not the most intense, but I also got some stuff done. I feel decent about it. Now I wish everyone a great week and I'll be working on the games!!!
