Hello, everyone!
I hope March is treating you all well!
As for the game development, it has been a really productive month!
Look, I said this update will be shorter than the previous releases, but boy... I was wrong. Right now, we're at 70% of the update in terms of dialogues, but we're already way past our estimated line count. So, I can confidently say that the playtime will be on par with the previous updates.
That said, there will be few lewd scenes for Episode 4, as we're highly focused on the main story. There are only two confirmed lewd scenes because I don't really want to break the story flow just for a few fan services. I'll just make it up to you in Chapter 2. 😅
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On the other hand...
I've made huge investments not just for this update but also for the game's future.
One thing I'd like to emphasize is the male clothes. There has been a severe lack of casual male clothing; most I feel excessively used already. Now that we're a little capable of buying assets, I took my chance to commission some, securing a rotation of outfits for Kei and other male characters (not for Shu, though😅).
I will share these with my circle of dev friends(e.g., Caribdis, KatanaVN, Aigas, Ekko, and Kainan. If you don't know them, WHY? Go check out their games!😂). But this will be something unique to us for the time being.
I also invested in a few assets, one artist for a specific scene, and a few more to mention. However, I still haven't found someone to take over the lewd scene animations for me. A few applied, but none of them could meet our expectations based on our current animation quality. So I'll have to do them myself for now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The last thing I'd like to bring to everyone's attention is that I've updated my Ren'Py version from 7.4.6 to 8.2.1. Aside from a few code changes, there weren't any issues on my end. I heard from a few devs that it won't cause any issues, so your save files can still work without problems.
This will benefit Android users later on. It will allow them to bypass the 4GB download limit, so I'm eager to know how it works.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That will be all!
The next ones are all preview posts. I'm looking forward to completing the dialogues 100% before the end of the month.
As always, take care, and have a great day ahead of you!
