Dear Patrons
Added 2019-08-27 12:57:12 +0000 UTCLast days I saw a constant and galvanizing increase in patron's number. Last version had a lot of positive feedback and I'm really engaged in creating a 1.3 that will live up to it.
Unfortunately, since I underestimated the difficulty of working during vacation and since the unforeseen happens always when you least need it, I didn't produce a 1.3 release that satisfies me so far. So I decided to postpone it of about two weeks and make it a mid-september release, and block the billing for september.
I really hold in high regard your money, your trust, and even if I consider that you may want to subscribe to my page just to show your support I feel very uncomfortable in billing you for a month without a release.
No product no money, that is my take.
Now the good news:
- I just finished developing the big feature I teased in the 1.2 post. I feel safe to speak of it now, the engine can now produce audio. I created 40 between speeches and sounds and the engine now is able to link them to the behaviours. Moreover the girl lip-syncs the speech. I handcrafted all of the lips animations, so it was really exhausting :D .
PS: This will be an Enchanter only feature, but to compensate I will add the hand gestures to Illusionist tier. I will speak about this in more details in the 1.3 post. - I already produced some new animations (no spoiler on them, sorry :P ).
- I'm progressing in the base decision algorithm modification and it's reaching the granularity I was speaking about in the 1.2 post.
So in short you will not be billed for september and get a new version on mid september.
I'm sure you can understand what drove my though process, but I nevertheless apologize if this takes you by surprise in a negative way.
Thank you for staying with me and see you in a while.
