Dev update #95
🕑 Added 2022-11-13 12:24:15 +0000 UTCA little bit later than expected, but here is the latest dev update. Nothing interesting to report, to be honest. Animations, animations, and more animations. And a little bit of music.
Oh, now that I think of it, there is at least one interesting thing to report. I've been dealing with animations for the past 2 weeks, but not only that. I've been curious about post processing. And since it's a completely new concept to me, I started spending more time educating myself and color correcting some of the renders. Just for practice. The results are amazing!
I've been struggling with render quality for quite some time now. Patrons and free users mentioning that my new renders don't look that good, which forced me to re-do environment textures from scratch and implement new skin for characters.
That improved render quality quite a bit, but still, they weren't something to be proud of. They were looking good, but not amazing. I think, for most cases, the color correcting part will do miracles. More contrast, more interesting shadows and colors. You could see the simplest example of what I'm describing in the first preview. So thank you for your feedback!
To prove my point, I'll try showing a render before and after color grading as a next preview. Things are looking really good!
Although, I'm getting more and more stressed about the deadline I set. I still have tons of work to do and the release is getting closer and closer. I'm still confident I will be able to release Episode 1 next month, though! As usual, if anything unexpected happens, I will let you know.
Some numbers:
- Coding - 100%
- Reworks - 100%
- Writing - 95%
- Static renders - 95%
- Animations - 50%
- Music - 40%
- SFX - 0%
- Postproduction - 5%
Next 7-10 days I will spend on animations. Final November days - post processing and music. Sadly, I think I'll have to skip SFX for the initial release.
Next preview coming soon! Stay tuned!
Take care!

I'm trying my best! I also hope the script and all the sexy stuff will be up there to match the render quality. :)

Yeah, I'm having lots of fun! Even more fun to be had when I'm about to work on sexy animations!

I feel like this game is slowly becoming a cinematic masterpiece. You’re definitely on the right path. This 2nd game is going to be fun to play.
