No progress report this week, But I wanted to drop a message to everyone before I have a break from working on the game.

I hope you all have a good holiday break, I plan to do the yearly recap before the end of the year, though depending on how much alcohol is involved this might push over into the new year.

Development Update #85

Hello all,

Quick update this week. Work continues on the Cassie scenes; I've built the last few that will be rendered overnight. I have started writing the Danielle section and aim to have this completed by next week.

I have some animations that I need to complete, so these will be done during the week.

All in all, this next update is pushing 1000 static images, and I haven't even ...

Few announcements this week, Let's start with the progress on the Dreams of Reality update:

Slowly closing in on the final sections of this update, though for the 'night-time activities' there will be an expansion of those scenes.

Not sure if I've mentioned this previously, however, it is intended in this update to lock certain paths in the game, for exampl...

Development Update #82

Hello everyone,

Last week has been spent working on animations, currently there is 99 seconds for a total of 5940 rendered frames.

I still have 3 left to do which should be completed this weekend.

Kimiko's scene has been expanded slightly, so I am aiming to have this scene in total finished by next week - ideally, I can make a start on the images for the Louise scene.

Development Update #81

Good morning and happy Saturday all!

Quite a few updates to get through this week. So, let's start with:

DoR Mission for Spacecorps

I know I keep going on about this, however, I've adjusted the mission to be completely stand alone and it is now available to all $5+ supporters on the following link: HERE.

Please note, this is a completely standalone mission that I created f...

Dreams of Reality Mission (for Spacecorps).

As promised (eventually) here is the link to download the mission I created for Spacecorps.

Please bear in mind, this is presented "as is" and though a lot of effort has gone into making sure it runs bug free, I cannot spend more time than I already have with it.

Disclaimer: This mission is stand-alone, and the events do not represent anything that has happened or will happen in Dreams of Reality.

It's a bit of fun. Don't take it seriously.

Development Update #80

Hello all,

Lots of progress over the last week, most of my time has been spent on creating and rendering images. The next update has now passed 500 static renders!

The story is also progressing, though at this stage with how complicated each persons storyline is (depending on your choices) it can take a while to ensure all possible routes have content.

Developer Log #8

Any of you reading these updates on the regular will know that I recently produced a stand-alone mission for Spacecorps. This Developer Log is going to detail some of the highs and lows of that development, as well as the lessons learnt. Consider the following to contain major spoilers for the Spacecorps mission as well as mild spoilers for Dreams of Reality.

Being an Indie developer is hard!

No, really. The amount of work that goes into every aspect of...

Development Update #79 (02/10/2022)

Hello everyone,

It's great to be back working on my own projects after Spacecorpz, so let's dig into what's been changing.

The Spreadsheet:

Seeking a little feedback from you all, is this sheet helpful? is it easy to read? I'm considering a redesign, perhaps a darker background might help.

The first introduction scene to the evening campfire is done, as is ...

Development Update #78: 25/09/2022

Hello all,

Yes, 78, I went back and counted them. This number doesn't include any of the developer logs (remember those) or other posts only the development updates.

I'm not sure if having that number there is a significance, but it is something I wanted to do for a long time - and you know me, I'll get around to it eventually.

So, let's get through some of the things that have happened over last couple of weeks. Firstly, ...

Development Update: 03/09/2022

It's been a few days since I've been able to post up the progress spreadsheet. Few caveats, there are some scenes that have been completed but are not listed on the sheet. This is to prevent spoiling anything.

There is also a bonus set of scenes that are not listed, these are yet to be voted on by you and are "comming soon".

The biggest progress has been in the development of the crossover. There is still  a ways to go, but I am considering having this as a standalone playabl...

Name that Daughter!

Evening all,

Just a quick dev update as I'm working on a crossover with a well known space game. Providing I can get this finished it should be in an update soon.

For anyone worried - this is being done in a spare couple of holiday days so is not going to impact the development of Dreams of Reality.

The name suggestions are in, and (with the exception of a couple that were not appropriate) the full list is below.

Development Update: 07/08/22

Hello all,

Back from my short holiday. Working hard on the next update. I've created the high level spreadsheet we all know and... love? It's not fully populated as the story is still very fluid, but should give you an idea of the progress so far.

I've also not added any of the created scenes in yet as I haven't had the opportunity to go through them.

Development update: 30/07/2022

Hello all,

Most of last week was spent working on the initial campfire scenes. I had =to run a few test images to have a scene work as I would like it to.

Trial and error is the name of the day, however after many trials (and errors) I now have an idle animation that is... passable.

I'm still deep in the writing for this update, but as usual several scenes have been made and are ready for rendering.

I will be away for a few days from tomorrow but back on friday, I'm su...

Hello all,

Lot's of writing and scene setups in the last week. I'm still planning out each story beat I want to hit in this update so do not yet have a high level progress spreadsheet to show you.

I have spent some time creating scenes ready for rendering, but due to the heat I decide to hold off forcing my computer to have a meltdown rendering them.

In the last update we were introduced to the news that Cindy has a daughter. I will be creating the character model for this s...

Last week v0.4.0 released. Seems to have been well received. I had a few days away from the game, but am now back at the grindstone working on version 0.4.5.
