Callisto v0.70 - Week 3 Update
Added 2021-05-07 01:40:51 +0000 UTCThe main story script is complete and is currently being reviewed by the Callisto team. As part of this script, I wanted to mesh in the outcomes of the side missions and other items such as your martial arts training with Kara. Additionally, there are far more choices to be made, affecting outcomes in the main story. As I get closer to the end of the game (version 1.0), I can afford to branch more extensively. The increase in branching is clearly visible in the coding of the main story.
One of the things that is now clear is that the main story for this update is significantly larger than the previous one. The v0.60 main story (including Kara getaway), was 500 images and 1,200 lines of code. The main story for v0.70 is 700 images and 1,800 lines of code. I have mentioned before, that on a normal day, I produce ~20 images for the game. To give myself a chance of make the deadline, I require additional time to work on the main story images. Rather than changing the release date, I will instead defer some of the lewd content in the strip club to v0.80. The time allocation here has been transferred to the main story allocation as below.
For the observant ones, you will notice that the remaining allocation for the main story is still insufficient. To mitigate, I'll up my workload to 30 images / day and 6 days per week for this content.
Last week was all coding / scripting, hence no new eye candy for you. Next week is mostly rendering, so I'll have plenty of content to pick one from, next Friday.
Thanks for your support.
