Project Plan July

Alright, last push to clear out the remaining Earth Corruption scenes! This month has two primary objectives:

1. Clear out all events and mental changes necessary to reach the Corruption ending

2. Finish the Lady Charlotte lewd scenes

This gives us a straightforward plan.

Week 1:  First week I plan to close out the remaining events related to the Rose storyline we dealt with las week, which is following up by closing out the George story. This is mostly 1 more lewd scene with Veronica and then a follow-up scene with George and Aura.

After that, I was thinking on closing out the Patricia events (as much as I can). Her story is kind of the transition into the Ending, so I might also decide to move her events into a later time slot and switch them out for some other events from week 2 or 3.

Week 2: In the second week, I plan to finish the last lewd scenes on Earth. There are 2 more lewd scenes for the corruption story line after this, but they happen in the ending. For the pre-ending lewd scenes, the last item on my list is the final level of the Late Night Sex With Richard event sequence where Aura will be getting the final level of the Tired III debuff.

After that, I plan on working on the last storyline that has a larger set of events left to deal with, the Social Ranking event line.

Week 3: ...And once they are dealt with, we can do the last Identity Question locked behind the 100k Fans check and with that close out the main mental changes, the corruption scenes and everything that's needed to go to the ending.

With probably half a week left after said close-out, I want to move on to the Charlotte portion of the update and start working on Lady Charlotte 3. Not sure if I can finish it within the week, but latest in the next week...

Week 4:  ...I can wrap it up and move to the final scene Lady Charlotte 4. Other than that, I plan to use this week as a buffer zone so I can clear whatever obstacle might be left before I can get started on the Corruption Ending.

If there's nothing, I plan to work on some world state update to reflect the changes from the Charlotte scenes into the game's dialogues. Otherwise, I would tackle that in the next update.

As for what our freelancers are up to, let's take a look at that next.

2D Art

Before I go into the art pipeline for the next months, let's take a look at the results of the H-CG poll.

 With Tan Variations being the clear leader, we already started on them last week. I thought I could even deliver them on Friday in time for the update, but there were issues with the assets. ...And today too while integrating them, there were some missing pieces here and ther. Overall, it's turning out quite a bit more complex than expected but I hope we can finally wrap it up tomorrow x_X

Anyways, the next clear leader is Cheerleading Game 4, so today I prepared the brief for that one. Still needs to be discussed with our artist but hopefully after fixing up the remaining tan variation H-CG assets we can get started on that. Then, since I decided to do the Charlotte events at the end of the month rather than at the start, to ensure that I can spend the time I need to wrap up the Earth Corruption scenes, I probably want to do her CG in the next month, so we will probably slot in a Fighting Over Richard 5 before doing the Charlotte H-CG. Overall, we get the following plan:

The last George and Veronica 8 scene would be the H-CG for the scene I plan to write this week. I can already tell that we will not be able to keep this 3 month plan at all considering how complex some of the CGs are like Fighting Over Richard 5 being a 6 person scene. :'D But once we are through with these, there are only a couple of CGs remaining (2 Ending CGs, 1 Liliana H-CG) until the 1.0 art is complete!

Pixel Art

IT IS TIME TO END AN AGE

AN AGE OF AURA

I have commissioned pixel art of the main Aura Roya sprite. Let us see what our pixel artist Amysaurus can cook up!

Also the Particia sprite will be getting some clothing edits.

RPGMaker Dev

Our assistant developer Trihan will be continuing his work to implement the Demon-crazy quest. Hopefully wrapping it up this month!

Mapping

Once again, our previous mapper has sadly quit, this time due to becoming a mother. With mapping work on the horizon, I have asked our first mapper to come back on board. He will be working on the Clockwork Forest dungeon for which I am currently working on the dungeon concept, so that our assistant developer Trihan can jump into implementing the last side area of 1.0 after he is done with Demon-crazy.

Aaaaaand that's the plan for the month!
