Shadow Island R7 - Progress Update [08 August, 2022]

Hello everyone,

Here's what's going on right now for Divimera R7:

- The minigame is 95% done, all that's left is some polishing and adding audio. This thing took way too many hours to get done and I'm glad it's almost behind me.

- Charlotte's new H-scene is finished, but there are still a few illustrations missing to get to it (you can see some spoilers about that in the preview post if you want).

- The new mystery character leading the mini-game and the visual for this new location is finished (featured in the preview post).

- The script for the R7 story is 85% complete, all that's missing is the items' descriptions from the gambling game, the doctor's quest, an event with Lady Hale in the saloon and some finishing touches.

- The character artist is working on a large scene involving women of the night which you can see the concept in the preview post.

I'm also looking for an apartment in order to be closer to a big city where relatives are, I've been looking to move for a while and all the lights are green for me right now. Everything should be back to normal in about a month and a half, but I'm going to keep working all month in any case, just with interruptions sometimes.

I don't think I'll be able to finish the R7 in time for August. Between doing the preparation for the move and having the art completely ready for R7 which I suspect would be in early September, it's going to be complicated.

However if a majority want to have the R7 released for August, it is also possible to make it shorter than what I planned by cutting some content and keeping them for R8 in order to deliver R7 for August. I personally prefer to avoid that since making a build, testing it and adding new translation takes time, so having fewer numbers of itineration released is more optimal. But overall it's not a problem, and if that's something you would prefer then that will work with me just fine.

I have launched a poll following this post for the patrons to know what is your preference.

That's it from me for today. I wish you all a great week and hope you will savour the remaining of the holiday.
