Development Update - 21st of September
🕑 Added 2024-09-21 13:00:09 +0000 UTCFinale Progress
This will only be brief—since last week, we've lit and rendered three more scenes. This brings us to the end of the still images of what would have been the second-to-last release. As we've not worked on any animations for this update yet, this is how we've gotten through this much quicker than usual.
We will include numerous animations in this finale chapter; however, we're first looking to complete the still images before moving on to the animations.
Overall, progress is moving along at a nice, steady pace.
Immersive Recap/Save Simulation
Last week, I mentioned I had outlined 50 key choices for Realms 1 & 2 to include in the save simulation for Realm 3 players looking to generate a new save.
Tae and I have whittled this down to 18 key choices (19, if you include renaming Atlas).
A full recap has been written. We will need to check it a few more times to ensure we've missed nothing important. I then need to map images to each line of the recap to keep it looking interesting.
Some choices made will intuitively decide other choices for you. For example, there are numerous points during Realms 1 & 2 where you can either be harsh with Gina, or you can be gentle with her. Rather than ask how you treated her at every opportunity, we will ask how you generally treated her and will adjust the background variables based on that.
Steam Stuff
As mentioned last week, we're sharing new updates on Steam for players over there to give them some insight into the development and background of High Lathión ahead of Realm 3's release on Steam. If you use Steam and can interact with the posts, that will really help us boost our visibility!
I also mentioned this last week, but Realms 1 and 2 are still both 40% off if you want to add them to your Steam library. We likely won't offer this heavy a discount again for a long time, so now is as good a time as any if you are interested!
Our Growth This Month
Since we launched our game on the OppaiMan store a couple of weeks ago, our Patreon page has seen the biggest growth ever in a single month.
If you have pledged via the OppaiMan store, or you're willing to connect your Patreon account over there, please consider leaving us a positive review to help boost our visibility over there :)
Thank you to all of the new members who pledged this month and to all of those who have been supporting us for a while and are supporting us for another month. Your backing really goes a long way in bringing this game to life and allowing us to improve its quality continually!
That's all for this post. Have a lovely weekend!
