Monday Update #104 | Close to the Finish Line

It's time for another Monday Update. Maybe and hopefully the last one before the next update for Children of Morn drops. So let's take a look at what has happened and what still needs to be done.

Everything new:

• Polish: I've done several passes over the script to catch bugs, smooth out the dialog and transitions, make sure the sound effects are in the right position and a bunch more.
• Sex Scenes: I've written, animated and rendered two new sex scenes. They are fully integrated into the game now. Both of the scenes are repeatable, with changed dialog the second time you watch the scene.
• Miscellaneous: I've done a bunch of small stuff. Slight changes here and there that aren't very noteworthy, but they add up over time. Like making sure a UI element aligns properly, or positioning a button in the dungeon in the right place or implementing some code to get rid of a potential softlock. That kinda stuff.
• Demo Version: I've also invested some time to prepare a demo version. Starting from this update I want to have a free demo with only the prolog here on Patreon and Itch so people can try the opening of the game out before they commit to buying it.
• Small Edits: As Strayhero is editing the files for the game now, we are already noticing areas that need to be polished and improved. With an update this big, there's no helping smaller or even larger errors that need to be fixed so we are already talking about
  and implementing necessary changes.

This very process, of editing and fine tuning the game for release, is the last big task that is left to do. Along with some passes for bug-fixes, but those shouldn't be too difficult, and a few rerenders for some animations. As soon as this last part is done, I'll drop the update.

And that will be early March. While it might not sound like much, this final process can't and shouldn't be rushed, especially not with the sweeping changes that were made. The update is almost done, but you'll still need to wait for it to be just right.

That's it from me for this week. It's back to the game now. The wait is almost over.
