Episode 4, Update #33 - Final

Heya,

Well, I guess that's it... the final devlog. I was hoping to have all the scenes finished by now, but I have two "intimate" ones left to do. Good news is, I've started my christmas holiday, so I don't have to worry about my job for the next couple of weeks and can use my machine free...

Episode 4, Update #32

Hey all,

Short and concise this time, as I'm racing to the finish line! 🥳

Second sparring match: Complete!
Last big scene: Complete!

I'm guesstimating the work to be done by the next devlog (+- two weeks), give or take a couple of days. The only concern I have is being abl...

Episode 4, Update #31

Heya,

I'm making good progress through the last story scenes, but as mentioned before, it's big. There's a lot of different things that happen/can happen, depending on your relationship status and how you handled certain things throughout the episode with all the characters which makes them...

Episode 4, Update #30

Hail!

I was out abroad for work for a week, but I managed to get quite a bit done when I returned. I've build up a hefty qeue to render, so that's the bottleneck as per usual. I shouldn't have called out a potential finish date by the end of October, it was a dumb call-out considering every...

Episode 4, Update #29

Hey all,

I decided to make a small change to submissions. Previously, there were only 2 renders depicting the submissions, but since there are 3 stages, it only made sense to actually have 3 depicting them. On top of that, I also wanted to show tapping out when succesful. So, instead of pre...

Special render winner - October

'The battle of two goddesses'

An interesting result on the losers poll! I wasn't expecting for both Alexa and Tamica to come out on top equally! That concludes the special renders for a while, as I put my head down and focus on finishing this episode.

En...

Episode 4, Update #28

Ahoy there,

Last week I made the decision to cut out some (what I believed) useless fight moves. I was looking to lighten the load on the creation of them. The ground game by far has the most renders, so I was evaluating what I could remove from there. I decided to cut the defensive abiliti...

Losers render poll - October

 Heya,

As this will be likely the last one before release, I've decided to make a "losers poll". You can only choose out of the ones that never won.

Episode 4, Update #27

Heya,

Instead of a preview render, I've set up something different for you for a change... something to hopefully get you in the mood. It's one of the songs I procured for this release, enjoy!

The visual sets the base for the scene I'm about tackle. I looked outside my window the ot...

Special render winner - September

Go on Rosie, show those guns...

Episode 4, Update #26

Salutations,

I know how many of you feel about Alexa, but personally, those lips drive me crazy! 😅

It was nice having had a few days to work in a full time capacity, and I pretty much got done exactly what I thought I 'd get done! Apart from the sparring match and a few bits and b...

Episode 4, Update #25

Heya,

This weekend was my wife and I's 5th anniversary, so we spent it with the family. As mentioned in a previous devlog, I've now got some time off work which I intend to use to push this project along. I do have a wedding to attend abroad (coming Friday to Monday), but I should have quit...

Special render poll - September

Who's going to be Miss September?

Episode 4, Update #24

Heya,

Preview is random again, because I simply can't show much more or it will ruin your surprises.

A lot has progressed these last two weeks. I finished the previously mentioned environment and character work much sooner than I expected, and the scenes on Ivan's branch are coming t...

Special render winner - August

Who else could've been the winner for August... I'm a little tight on time, as I want to get on with the work for the game, so I cheaped out on a portrait shot without any additional special outfits this time. Incidentally, I'll use it to update some stuff for the UI. 😁

Episode 4, Update #23

Tally ho,

As per the last dev-log, I mentioned I was going to expand some of the earlier scenes. This work is now completed and puts them to a 100% (Green circled area). What I thought was going to be maybe about 25 additional renders, turned into 50, and then 75, finally ending on a 115......

Special render poll - August

It's about time for a reset, so I'm throwing everyone into the mix again. Who's going to be miss August?  

Episode 4, Update #22

Salutations,

I'm about a week late with this dev-log, but that's because I spent the last week and a half abroad for work visiting my office. I thought I'd be able to send it at the usual time, but I didn't. Having to go away from my workstation for longer periods of time, always annoys me,...

Special render winner - July

Diana was voted the winner for July. Oi, oi, saveloy!

Episode 4, Update #21

Hi everybody!

This devlog, I thought it would be interesting to talk about the band song sequences. If you don't care about the technical aspect of that or don't want to be spoiled, I suggest you skip this and don't watch the video!

As mentioned in the previous devlog, I'm having to s...

Special render poll - July

The list is growing thin, who's next for July? 

Episode 4, Update #20

Hello everyone,

These last weeks were interesting. I'm currently trying my best to get to the end of the episode, so that at least I can do a full playthrough of one side. I still need to go back and complete the other side. The two band sequences I'm currently working on aren't small... bu...

Special render winner - June

June's winner, Sakura the Judo teacher, gracing you with her presence.

I've taking a slightly different approach with this one, and started using a poster format.

Episode 4, Update #19

Hello people!

I've returned from my birthday shenanigans week and I'm starting to get back into development. Unfortunately I cought a cold on Wednesday, which I'm fighting off at the minute. 😒

I've started preparations for one of the band sequences, it's going to be spicy w...

Special render poll - June

 There can be only one for the month of June, really! The hint is in the name... but the choice is yours, of course.

Episode 4, Update #18

Greetings,

I only managed to get about halfway through the training sessions, as these last few weeks at work left me exhausted. Now that that period is over, I hope to get on with this project again.
Hopefully, I can finish the grappling sessions this week and get on with the spa...

Special render winner - May

Surprisingly, Evelyn took the lead this time... she's the one character with the least screen time, and hasn't been seen since she got kicked out of the gym in episode 2, until now...😯

I little early as its not May yet, but work has been hectic and I haven't had a lot of time. This'll b...

Episode 4, Update #17

Hey all,

I'm close to finishing the main story beat on Alexa's side. Had to do a little custom environment work, which you can catch a glimpse of in the preview. I'll be working on the training sessions next, followed by a new sparring match to practice the newly unlocked moves on.

No...

Special render poll - May

Rosie was the previous winner, so she's been removed from the selection for the next render. Who's next?

Episode 4, Update #16

'ello 'ello!

I'm still carrying on with work on the branch where you decide to stay and its coming together. There's a small hint in the preview of what's going to happen this episode. It took me some time to design a new standardized outfit, and I'm pretty happy with the result. Each side ...
