Release week is soon upon us.
Beta testing has yielded great results, and the testers have done a thorough job with the episode.
Here's the updated changelog after the weeks of beta testing. It's most likely final. *Crosses fingers*
On top of helping me find bugs and polish episode 11 further, there have been some improvements to the overall season during beta testing.

Final Status update Episode 11
We have finally reached the final status update for episode 11. Two days ago, the PCs finished rendering the animations, and shortly thereafter, I continued to prepare the beta builds.

Beta testing started yesterday, and the testers are digging into the episode. They have plenty of work ahead of them.
I've seen many newcomers ask, and to clarify, my beta tests are alw...

This will be the next-to-last status update for episode 11. After beta testing has started, I'll post the final status update on episode 11.
I won't have much more to report on Episode 11 until then, and I'll let you know the status as soon as I have something to share. I am playtesting the episode but also working on episode 12 development. I won't report on that until after v0.11.0 is release...

Status update Episode 11
Today's update will be short, which is good because we're at the end of the development cycle.
I've been play-testing for the better part of the week. I am now focusing on continuity and replaying the entire game, Episodes 1-11, during my tests. I will make a couple of playthroughs like this in the upcoming week, and it's pretty time-consuming as the game grows bigger.
I've also been taki...

This week, I started by playing Others' and Isabella's branches. I feel very good about how the different playthroughs of the episode feel.
I've also played with a focus on mini-games and balancing the party planning mini-game. Then, I focused on replaying all the lewd scenes; although three scenes were missing animations, I could polish most of the content.
I checked that the Music app ...

Happy New Year!
I hope you had a great end to 2024 and a good start to 2025.
This week, I started by parsing the document with the dialogue I discussed in the last update. It took quite some time but was well worth it.
It is always baffling how many spelling and grammatical errors slip through the cracks during development. I haven't parsed any dialogue from phone apps or mini-games...

I hope the end of 2024 is treating you well. Amidst work, I've had a couple of nice days off celebrating Christmas.
This week, I added music to all remaining scenes and will have to analyze if more is needed in some areas. At the moment, 42 new songs have been added to episode 11. Sound effects still need more work, but not a lot.
I added the lewd events of episode 11 to the Stats app and...

I completed posing all scenes this week, and after that, it felt like a whole new world of steps in development opened up, which means I've reached the polishing stage.
I have coding tasks left here and there, but all the scenes (story + lewd + branches) have been posed and written, so I can finally start playing the episode for real and polish the rough areas.
Before playing, I quality-t...

Happy Friday, DIKs.
This week, I've continued to work on art.
I'm up to 6995 posed static renders - of which 308 are in the render queue.
I'm up to 389 posed animations - of which 66 animation files are in the render queue.
I also added Discord rich presence functionality for Episode 11 this week—I'm almost done with it.
I only have two scenes left to pose, and I estimate I ...

Status update Episode 11
The status update is one day earlier this week, as a special announcement is tomorrow.
I've worked on art this week and completed five scenes of varied length. And I'm currently posing animations for the last lewd scene of episode 11.
Everything is going well. The animation queue count is 62, and a couple of hundred static renders are rendering now, too.
At this moment, I'm up to a ...

It was a very productive week. I finished all the remaining writing. Yep, all of it, as previously stated - is written.
Moreover, I added new patrons since episode 10 to the credits, added the Vault digits to the episode, double-checked that they worked, and ensured that all special renders were added.
I've now started working on the remaining art.
Here's an updated checklist and my...

I started the week by completing the art for the remaining scenes that I had written, and I'm currently focusing on writing the remaining scenes for the episode.
I worked on some canon scenes and completed writing the final lewd scene. But I've primarily been working on Isabella's and Josy's & Maya's branches, and it's going well.
Isabella's content is close to completion—I need to...

After wrapping up a lewd scene, I've been working on static renders all week. Before this week, I had eight written scenes that needed static renders, and I am currently working on scene 7 out of 8. After I finish the 1.5 remaining scenes, I will continue to write again. I plan on writing in all unfinished areas and hopefully get a good flow going.
An updated checklist would look like this afte...

I've been working hard on a big lewd scene all week - pun intended. It has mostly been animation work, with some static renders posed along the way.
I'm very close to the end of this big lewd scene, and the animation queue has grown to 77 files.
The big cutscene animation is almost completed now; it's at 2861 out of 3360 frames, and roughly three days of render time remain. After that, al...
