Chapter Two Update
Added 2020-04-29 01:31:15 +0000 UTCHere's your semi-regularly progress update on the state of things.
All of the necessary assets have been completed. There was a few unplanned, additional sets that needed to be created along the way. As I was arranging scenes, I felt that these were necessary, purely for a better cinematic presentation.
That number--56%--doesn't look to properly represent the amount of content that's actually done. The damned spreadsheet I use to track the project may not be properly weighed, but this is what it gave me. A lot of the items are hovering at 90%, which is code for its probably done except for a final pass through for rewrites and reshoots.
On animations
As this is my first foray in building a game, period, much less in Ren'py, I'm having to approach certain things in an exploratory manner. While I've snuck in a few simple animations (two- and three-frame deals), there are sequences coming up that will require something more. More fluid, more active. So, I'll be testing out which process works best for me. Baring any unforeseen complications, I figure there'll be at least one animated scene in Chapter Three. Maybe two if I can get it working how I like.
