Dev Log #101 - Loading up on the holiday spirit!

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well! Let's get right into this week's dev log!

Development update
Episode 3's development is progressing smoothly, albeit slowly. I have finished one flashback scene and most of the major branching scenes mentioned previously that depend on who you have Cara side with at the end of Episode 2! These scenes are quite large and took slightly longer than I anticipated, but at least they are mostly done!

I have also just completed most of the backlog custom renders from November and they will be released shortly! Sorry for the delay!

For the next few days, I will be working on the side story as well as the Christmas special! In the meantime, here's a sneak peek at how the... uhh... "Santa Helpers' Association" (patent pending) is shaping up...

Ah yes, a building purposefully constructed for dealing with those on the Naughty List... but I wonder who will be on that list? Stay tuned to find out!

Upcoming polls
In the coming days before my absence on the 19th of December, I will be posting two polls; one will be an outfit poll for someone new and the other will be the side story poll for January 2025! Look out for those coming very soon!

----------------------------- EPISODE 3 WEEKLY BREAKDOWN --------------------
Story: 90% done. Focused on rendering work for the first three days. No change from last week.

Renders: 20% done. 248 new renders were added since the last breakdown, the total now stands at 1193 renders. Up 5% from last week.

Dialogue: 20% done. Refinement of big branching scene dialogue, along with initial work on flashback scene. Up 5 % from last week.

Game Playability: 10% done. Renders and dialogue of branching scenes and flashback scenes are roughly stitched together in-game. Up 5% from last week.

---------------------------------- END OF BREAKDOWN ---------------------------------

Overall, it has been a very productive week! And I look forward to keeping things going all the way till my absence and when coming back fresh in 2025!

As always, stay safe and healthy!
