Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays

Hey Ho-Ho-Homies,

(Yeah, I know that was terrible, but I had to do it...)

I just wanted to make a quick post to wish everyone a great Christmas/Holiday and to let you know that I need another day or two with the update.  Family plans have made it extremely difficult to finish everything on time and I'm very sorry about that.

I've already said it on the discord, but I wanted to post it here as well:
I honestly doubt that I'll need more than another...

Chapter 4: Week 51 progress

Hey Homies,

I suppose that I should start with the news that everyone is hoping for to save some people the effort of sifting through the report:

I HOPE TO START ROLLING THE UPDATE OUT TO PATRONS ON DEC 22 (FREE TO THE PUBLIC DEC 29) OR BY THE LATEST DEC 25 (FREE TO THE PUBLIC JAN 1).  Frankly, it's dumb to try releasing a game update at this time of year, but I'm dumb, so it's on brand.

Anyway, on to...

Hey Homies,

I'm going to keep this report short since surprisingly there isn't too much to report.  I was a little sick this weekend and spent a large portion of it sleeping, but thankfully I was able to use a lot of my nap times to render out all the pickups I needed to complete the scenes I'm testing.

As you can see from the numbers increasing almost all across the board, there's still plenty of work to be done as I run through testing everything.  The good news is tha...

Hey homies,

I've been working all morning on completing the scene that I spoke of in yesterday's progress report and I've come to a bit of a dilemma that I figured would be best solved by the patrons.  So I'll try to detail the issue without spoiling much in the process.

Chapter 4: Week 49 progress

Hey Homies,

It's been another busy week of development despite having a couple more setbacks.  

I finished scene 5 and gleefully dove back into testing.  Sadly, I quickly discovered that I messed up and forgot that I still had a couple of sections in Scene 3 that needed a fair amount of work.  As you can imagine, with over 300 renders, there's a lot that happens during that part of the game with quite a lot of varying choices.  Sometimes it's easy to overlook ...

Chapter 4: Week 48 progress

Hey Homies,

This week had a few ups and downs but nothing too major so I'll go over them below.  The main time suck this week was when I decided I wanted to update Ren'py for some reason.  Ren'py is the engine that the game runs on, for any who don't know.  Of course, this made some of my coding mess up, so I decided to quickly run through the game to see if I could find any more errors.  This 'quick run' immediately turned into a full, in-depth playthrough ...

Hey Homies,

I was able to finish the last of the Scene 1 renders early last week and I'm happy to announce that I've officially entered the testing phase!  It's both my favorite phase and the most stressful.  I finally get to see all my hard work start to come together, but also, people start to get really anxious about the release so it feels like there's even more pressure.  I guess I can't really blame anyone since it's been in development a lot longer than I originall...

I had a pretty good dev week despite the not-so-massive numbers shown above.  I'm mostly just in the assembly faze right now.  Putting all the puzzle pieces in place to help figure out what pieces I'm missing.  I'm still trying to crank out the Scene 5 renders, but since I want to start testing as soon as possible, I keep getting distracted trying to work on whatever holes I need to fill elsewhere.  

All-in-all, it was a productive week and if I...

Next Silver-tier post?

Hey all,

Sorry for missing the poll the other day.  My brain is all over the place this week.

Anyway, here's the poll:
Which scene do you want to see a teaser for in the next SFW post?

Most of these have been teased before but I'll leave it up to you all to try figuring out which is which.

The poll will be up until Saturday at midnight, multiple choices enabled and the SFW teaser will be posted on Sunday.

Much love!

Hey Homies,

I've been under the weather this past week and I didn't get a lot of time to work on the game.
However, I actually was way farther along in Scene 1 than I thought I was!  I still need to organize everything into its proper place, but I'm actually nearly finished with Scene 1.  So Yay!  Also, even though I wasn't able to fully finish Scene 3, it's still only a handful of renders away from completion, so I'm not worried about it anymore.  Well... the sce...

Hey Homies,

Scene 3 is nearly complete.  I decided to scale back on a couple of the animations, so I should only have another 15-20 renders to finish for it.  I may still go back later to add more if I feel like the scene is a little light during testing, but for now, I'm going to consider the Scene 3 animations complete!  

I should be able to move on to Scene 1 this week, and as (I think) I previously stated, Scene 1 has a lot of work finished on it already and it...

Hey Homies,

I swear, it feels like someone is stealing days from me because the weeks keep flying by!  

Regardless, I had animations running nearly the entire week so I was able to knock out 3 with another rendering out right now.  Everything's moving at a nice pace and it's looking like I'll need another 4-5 animations and some pickups to finish off this scene.  It's more than I expected originally, but I added a fun option to one of the decisions and even though...

Chapter 4: Week 41 progress

Hey, Homies!

It's been another busy work week but I was still able to get a fair amount of dev'n finished.  I ran a few batches of renders throughout the week while at work and while I still need to sort them into the script, I think the only thing I have to finish for Scene 3 is the last chunk of animations.  I'm still not exactly sure how many more I have left, but I imagine I have at least 3-4 more animations for this section of the scene to hit my bare-minimum.

Apologies for missing the Patreon post last week, I was really busy and just didn't get a chance to work on it.  That's the same reason I didn't do another poll.  I didn't want to get backed up if I happen to have another crazy week.  Sorry again, I'll be carrying over the post to this week.

Alright, now don't get mad at me... but I decided to put the scene that I cut last week back into the game.  It turns out it was a little more important than I remembered it being.  If only for the scene it sets up.  It will still be scaled back from what I had originally wanted, but given the nature of the scene, there's only so much I can cut before it feels too short.  I'm sure that once Chapter 4 is finished, most of you will appreciate that I added ...

Hey, Homies!

A lot of scripting was done since the last report as my computer was stuck running animations for most of the week.  Unfortunately, I had to abandon one of my animations halfway through because of some glaring hair glitches.  Thankfully, I was able to reposition the camera and move her hair around so it was only the 12+h of render time that was wasted and not the headache of the actual animating as well.  Think my GPU is dying, but we'll have to wait and see....
