Dev Diary #49

Hello? Hello. There are days when I forget how to start a diary.

Productive week! I'm going to skip some personal stuff I had to take care of on Thursday and am a bit low in the mood today. So let's get down to the interesting stuff.

Beta is almost ready. Currently, I have finished and tested Maria's level 4/5 and Tali's level 4. Only level 5 is left which will be a bit simple but interesting to see as Tali slowly tries to show her feelings although she won't show all her love until level 6.

I have to rethink the levels because as I have already mentioned I want to make shorter levels but more varied because so far they are focused on all the sexual stuff with the girls. The purpose of this is to be able to give sexual content from the first levels although I have the feeling that I have already explained this and I feel it is a bit repetitive.

I have checked and there was a bug in the map related to Tali, it is fixed.

I've also been checking the experience table and I have to balance it so it's not so grindy because now that you don't accumulate exp you have to spend more time with girls.

This will be effective in 0.8 as I will be putting potions to gift to girls and also with the rework of the stats and jobs it should make it easier with both main and secondary girls. It's not as bad as it may seem on paper, but instead of leveling up -> spending time with a girl one time -> new level... Now you have to spend time with a girl a few times per level. I'll try to find a balance.

And for the rest, well, Tali's level 5 is still pending (writing + renders). I think this is going to take up the whole weekend, so I estimate that the beta will be available in the middle of next week.

As it gets closer to the time to have it ready I'll see if I'll delay it a few days to release it on Friday or on the contrary release it a few days earlier. I understand that everyone will prefer to play the new version on a weekend rather than during the week when it is available depending on the tier. I'll see what I do!

The repeatables, counter images, achievements (2), the main menu animation, and the quit screen image are also pending. I should be able to do this in one day.

Oh yeah, I also have to do the wallpapers for this month so it's going to be a busy weekend. Unfortunately, I won't be able to work on L'sA and I'll have to leave it for next week.

I'm almost 100% going to make an extra Halloween wallpaper even though I wasn't planning to do it but yesterday I had an idea and I don't want to let it go.

If by any chance anyone is wondering if there will be an ingame event at some point... Yes, I plan to add the first one at Christmas time and you can repeat it as many times as you want since it will be in winter (ingame).

And with all this explained I'll see you on Monday and hopefully with good news! Spoiler time!

Today we will talk about Maria's level 5. An almost perfect view, don't you think?

Hmmm...

Phew, False alarm.

I decided to experiment a bit with the first-person view with the MC's "nip" on Maria's nipples. The result is quite interesting.

But let's get down to the interesting stuff. Finally it happens?

Obviously! But at this level, Maria's attitude is not the usual one... I'll let you find out for yourselves.

a total of 17 animations.

I'm going to show something extra. Is about Tali's level 4 although we'll talk in detail on Monday.

The main reason is that I decided to improvise a bit and take advantage of Tali's potential: Her ass. 

So unexpectedly and after testing all evening here is the final result:

Due to the way the level goes, there are few animations (3-4) and the repeatable will be the same but it serves me as an experiment and above all to know your opinion when you see it ingame. Mostly because maybe I'll keep experimenting with the other girls and maybe the butt-job counter won't be exclusive to Tali.

See you!
