Dev Update 09/14/23

Hey, y'all!

Late (again) this week, but y'all are pretty much used to this by now.

I got an okay amount of work done this week, but I would've liked to get a bit more. Daz was being a lil bitch to work with by not letting me render certain scenes so I kinda had to fight it to figure out what the problem was and ended up rebuilding one of the environments from scratch since it apparently didn't like the version I had saved. tl;dr: Daz sucks, but we keep it pushin.

Dev Update 09/07/23

Hey, y'all!

Hella late this week, but I just got home last night and went straight to work on some renders so I didn't have time to write up a dev update.

As I mentioned in the previous dev update, I had to leave for most of the week so I couldn't really get as much work done as I would've liked to. Either way, I stocked up some renders and let the queue run while I was gone.

The total render count is now up to 250 images and still 0 animations (bum dev again smh).

Dev Update 08/29/23

Hey, y'all!

This week didn't have much actual rendering, mostly filling up the queue as I'm going to be gone for most of next week.

I've been considering tweaking this coming update to feature fewer branching scenes compared to the previous chapters due to the high amount of complaints regarding playtime. If you're against or for the idea of more linear chapters here and there, let me know as I'd like to hear you guys thoughts on it.

On to the numbers, we're currently si...

Westview Academy Chapter 5 Walkthrough!

Dev Update 08/22/23

Hey, y'all!

Chapter 4 is finally out to $5+ patrons! 

I got a good amount of work earlier this week, managed to get an entire scene of 100 images written and rendered out which was great.
This chapter will likely sit at around the 1,000-1,200 range per usual, don't wanna go too crazy and end up suffering from long dev times.

This chapter will also feature the very first side girl encounter on the Sports path, Music had the past 2 so it's only fair Sports had...

Random Alyssa Render:)

Dark as fucc

Expect a dev update next Tuesday, I'll share news on the plans I have for CH5 and things of that nature<3

It's finally out! Thank you for all your support, it truly means a lot.

Dev Update 08/08/23

Hey, y'all!

As you can see from this week's cover pic, I've started my test runs! This means I'm playing over each and every one of the paths and seeing if they need any extra renders or things of that nature. This was a stressful release cycle for many reasons, and I'm just glad it's close to being over (and starting all over again next cycle).

The numbers are now at 1313 renders and 20-something animations, and will likely stay around that 1300-1400 range.

Dev Update 08/05/23

Hey, y'all!

Hella late this week, but as some of you may know, I'm traveling to the US and back every week or two so I didn't have access to my PC or the render count. The rig was busy cranking renders out while I was gone though.

The render count now sits at 1,282 and 25 animations.

August 4K Renders!

Sorry for the repeat on Leslie this month, this is an old set I had saved and I can't really afford to make any bonus renders at the moment since I'm pretty close to release and I'd rather work on In-Game stuff. I'll try to squeeze an extra set some time later this month using someone else<3

Dev Update 07/25/23

Hey, y'all!

Quick one this week. I only have 3 scenes left, with 2 being about halfway done, so things are looking pretty good on that front.
The numbers are now sitting at 1,187 renders and 19 animations.

Said I was gonna do an extra set this month so here it is:)

Dev Update 07/18/23

Hey, y'all!

Had to travel back to the states for most of the week away from the rig, luckily I prepped for it and packed the queue with a few animations and let them cook while I was gone.

Don't really have much to say other than Update Soon™️, gonna be the biggest one yet:)

The numbers now sit at 1,091 and 19 animations.

Dev Update 07/11/23

Hey, y'all!

Had a pretty annoying dev week this time around. The animations I had posed turned out looking worse than they usually do once they were rendered, so I had to go back and re-render them which added quite a lot of time to my render queue.

Other than that, got a decent amount of work done. The render count now sits at 1,063 stills and 13 animations.

I'm probably going to do mostly animations this week so the number of stills likely won't go up too much.

A...

July 4K renders:)

Not completely satisfied, will likely do a second set

Dev Update 7/04/23

Hey, y'all!

Quick dev update since I'm quite tired after a long trip, and if I don't write the devlog now I know my dumbass is going to forget to do it later.

The render count finally hit the 1,000 milestone, looking to be a 1,200-1,500 render update from the looks of it.

I've also been looking into translations for the Steam release, I've managed to secure Portuguese and Spanish translations so far, hoping to get more in the future:)

Dev Update 06/27/23

Hey, y'all!

Finally settled in my new place and ready to get back to working properly, and I think I got a decent amount done.

I got myself an actually usable internet plan, so uploading the latest builds will be a lot quicker and easier:)

The render count is now up to 914 renders and 10 animations.

Dev Update 06/21/2023

Hey, y'all!

This week was spent mostly working on dialogue since I only had my laptop on me while I was away from my PC. I did however manage to get some renders done but of course not as many as I'd like.

The render count now sits at 842 renders and still only 10 animations.

Dev Update 06/14/23

Hey, y'all!

Late again but that's pretty much normal by now. If you're in my Discord server you may know this already, but I'm moving out of the US soon so I'm gonna be traveling in and out of the country this month and I may not be able to get as much progress as I'd like.

Anyways, the numbers are now up to 793 and 10 animations. Checked the word count the other day and it's already quite close to Chapter 3's ...

Dev Update 06/07/23

Hey, y'all!

Didn't get a lot of progress done this week which is a shame, and I won't be able to make it back next week either due to some personal stuff I need to sort out.

The numbers are now up to 746 renders and 10 animations, getting quite close to the 1,000 mark the previous two updates had, which is both exciting and scary.

Dev Update 05/30/23

Hey, y'all!

Didn't quite make last week's goal, but I was close to my prediction. The total is now up to 678 renders, and looking back at them, I'm not even close to finishing the update which means Chapter 4 will likely be a bit bigger than my previous chapters.

I did finish a new animation as well. Hopefully, you guys enjoy the non-lewd animations I use for transitions as those are the ones I enjoy making the most out of them all.

Anyway, that's about...

Dev Update 05/24/23

Hey, y'all!

A day late, per usual at this point.

I got a decent amount of work done this week, I finally got to make one of the animated transitions for this update which is always a fun thing to do. I love getting the opportunity to use some of the things I've picked up from my job editing videos for others online.

As for the render count, we're now sitting at 600 renders and 9 animations.

Hoping to reach 700 and 10 animations by next week, but realistically I should...

May Monthly 4K Renders:)

Dev Update 05/16/23

Hey, y'all!

Happy late Mother's Day to those who celebrate it.

I got a decent amount of progress done this week, I'm expecting to get a lot more renders done next week though since it's mostly a montage-y scene and I won't have to write any dialogue for it which is usually what takes me the longest to get done.

The render count is now up to 512 with 8 animations still.

That's about it for this week, stay safe.

Dev Update 05/10/23

Hey, y'all!


Got a decent amount of work done this week, not as much as I was hoping but a decent amount nonetheless.
The scene I'm currently working on is beating my ass due to its size, which is never ideal. Hopefully, now that the main environment is built I won't struggle as much, but who knows.

I'm currently up to 440 renders and 9 animations, a bit lower than I would've liked them to be at this time, to be honest, I'll have to do better in the coming weeks.

That...
