0.30 Devlog and Happy New Year!

Back in September I decided to split the whole Grassmere story in two so this release will not take forever, and most renders and videos are ready, so coding starts in january.

Ideally I wanted to start coding early december, but due to the software limitations of Daz, rendering the Feast, with 13 characters on screen most times, has taken forever, but it’s done. The whole Grassmere main event is around 200 renders long.

In 0.30 not only some long waited romance...

Mid Feb Devlog

Hi theres!

These past weeks I recoded the ground part of freeroam code of this update 'cause its really complex, and was not doing the job, but now looks like running much better so I can just focus on scenes and the emergent writing.

I also coded a (toggeable) automatic system that shows when the game is checking Stats, Paths, and People's Path (in a cool and non invasive way) so the player can know if he may be missing something somewhere.

"I fixed" the saves not allowing ...

Start of Feb Devlog

Hi theres! I've been back to coding (and making a pair of missing animations) after my short hiatus to put things on places. Things were indeed put in places.

For sure September to December are the most complicated months for a single father single-handly doings loads of stuff, but well, while every year is the same and is not surprising, it is always frustating not having time to reach everywhere.

Really looking forward to late spring-summer again, when I can just administer my t...

End of November Devlog

Hi there!

My plan was to render some 0.30 while I work on my other job the first weeks of december after 0.25 release, as I need to put a pair of products on sale for the jolly consumist festivities asap. (as you know I've been focusing mostly on BFL for the last 5 months, so it is time to focus there too).

But in the last days I came to terms with the idea that 0.25 will be not ready by the end of the month. I miscalculated...

Update Previews

pics: 0.25

And with the previous and these spoiler pics, all the protagonists of this little update are revealed. (well little, more than 400 renders and still going up...). I guess we could call this the first "Slice of Life" update.
Chop chop, lots of coding to do!

End of Oct devlog

pic: 0.25

Devlog delayed a bit 'cause I don't really have much to say besides I'm rendering anims and coding every day really.

I guess in the end the number of render of scenes have blown out in number beyond my expectations but taking into account that I'm diligently coding them, everything is not taking much extra time. And all extra renders just meant more or better content, So good. (While I expected less than 600 renders for both 0.24 and 0.25 content, it is more than 800 no...

Mid October Devlog

pic: 0.25

Well! Grassmere came out in time and had quick a nice welcome.

Due to all the accumulated days (Since mid August when I released 0.21) of adapting the engine to new systems and certain third party problems, the full 0.25 Nobles And Plebe update won't make it inside this month (as would be foreseable), but I don't think it will take much more.

But at any rate, BFL new menus and visuals are getting closer to the shape I want for...

Mid-September devlog

Not much to say as I'm coding coding coding to have 0.24 ready this month, but we can recap Math:

Renders on Grassmere: 270 or so -I Still need 50-100 more, but scenes are ready, so they'll be coming steady as I need to code them.

All important scenes are coded on Grassmere. Only some freeroam-recurrent scenes needed yet, and also the changes on Penketh (that are mostly code and dialogue extensions).

All the new resources exchanges and conversions are coded everywhere.

0.21.c Public Release Link

As you know by the >Changelog< this is a Long Testing Version from the new Engine version until 0.25 (that as planned will come before ideally before November).
0.21 is Basically, the first 10 days of code of 0.25 (without new scene content), fixing all the engine changes, adding lots of features, bug fixing, and many improvements.

0.24 This month!

Both render and code keep progressing well so it's time to make an anouncement; This month, as a pre 0.25 release, 0.24, will hit Closed Beta.

0.25 was going to be nicknamed “Nobles and Plebe”, so I guess 0.24 will include the Nobles part:

-Grassmere access (intro scenes, some freeroam, stuff)

-All code related to allowing Grassmere access on Chapter 1 and what those changes allow in all the game. (Resources trade, Penketh affinities, Resources conversi...

End of August devlog

Well! That was an intense august.

I'm a bit delayed on renders due to all the 0.21 coding (amazing tech update), but as I already started coding 0.25 scenes 3 weeks earlier, everything will add up in the end.
On grassmere, free roam hubs are coded and some of the arrival scenes too!
Same goes for many freeroam interactions around all Kathia (Some even leaked on the last 0.21.c release.. xD)

2024 Summer Special

Just an end of summer treat, Our guests, the winners from last month poll, Penketh's Heart.

-Probably tomorrow 0.21.b will go to Field Leaders, looks like the Tech Update is quite in good shape.
-And a devlog before August ends!
-Downloable versions of the pics on 4k

Quick update just for not having you in the dark, ' cause I'm knees deep between finishing 0.21 bughunt and 0.25 renders. After these 3 slower weeks I knew I would had due to family, this is the progress:

• 0.21 (technical upgrades and lots of little bug fixing) is almost ready (making myself a last full run of the game, fixing texts and anything that shouldn't work exactly as expected).

• On 0.25, I'...

End of July Public Devlog

• -Progress on 0.25 fare well;

-I'm 160 still renders, 10 mini-animations, 5 long frame animations in, on Leffrin Village.

-Between Leffrin Village and Grassmere (for 0.25 and 0.30) I have 40 wordpages of dialogue ready (probably half I need). (Small talk is usually incorporated on coding, where most grammar issues lies xD)
So I'm a bit more advanced than I thought on my Math Bonanza devlog... Any extra time is good to put more quality time on G...

I lied about the not making more long posts so soon x'D

But this one is only for those interested in my work procress.

For those or you are not, well, just saying progress goes well! 1/5 of graphics already done! (And 0.21 with fixes and improvements on its way) Also, TLDR: trying to not make the update too big.

So, I'm going to go about developmen...

Side Content Poll for next updates!

So, as you know we're moving to finish chapter 2 and 3. While the main content for the next 3 updates is planned, side-content for chapter 2 side stories will need their place before we end the first of the two parts of the game. (meaning, progress on previous side romances).

So the question is only, in what order, or what preference,...
