Mid-month update.

Hello! Progress on Dreams of Reality is moving at a swift pace; I’ll get to the raw numbers update shortly. However, first I want to touch on what you can expect in the next update and temper expectations slightly.

This update forms the second part of chapter 2 and completes the chapter. Its focus is on Louise and how your relationship with her has suffered. Of course, those who are on a different path will have the opportunity to spend time with some of the other girls.

To put it in simple terms, there are four distinct paths. You can choose who to spend time with, the list is based on your previous actions and choices. The more fleshed out path is the Louise one – this is by design. There is some story progression with the girls, however most of it is focused on Louise and her actions since the death of Emily.

As I’m sure you have worked out, when a story splits, the time with each path will be less than if there is just one – I want to give each route in the game the same care and attention as everything else.

The next update (Chapter 3) will be a lot more linear in nature and the main elements of the story will progress. 

What I’m trying to say is, don’t hate me if the update is not a four-hour extravaganza, I am but a lone Dev doing my best.

That aside, here’s what’s left for me to do to round out the completion of chapter 2. I have nearly completed the Louise scenes; this was heavily expanded and re-written as I want to get the tone and emotional balance just right. You will find out some answers to questions you may have had. And, if you so choose, you get the opportunity to reconcile any differences.

I have the final scenes with Danielle to write, these will also need to be created in Daz and rendered. Initially this was to be a shorter scene, however, again – it will be expanded and some questions answered. 

A few animations to render out, that should be starting today and will take a large chunk of next week. Then it’s over to play testing and release.

Stats for nerds:
- 18318 words over 3957 lines of code (so far)
- 506 Static renders (bit more now after today)
- 17 bonus images (I should round this up… maybe)
- Animations… (I’ll count this later)

The first Friday in December I will have a firm release date to share.

Another dry one this week. I have started working on the Christmas holiday render, this will be in 4k and available for download.

Take care
