Eros Academy - Scene 2 Done
Added 2018-11-25 01:27:49 +0000 UTCThe second new challenge for Naomi is done, involving you taking her to a public strip club and making her dance. The scene totals 10 renders, bringing us up to 23 so far for this update. Technically, that's in the range for the extended update reward, but I was planning on shooting for 25-30 this time. I'm unsure what that means, just yet.
Given how close it is to the end of the month, not to mention how far behind where I want to be on art for the next Cosplay Cafe update I am, I'm wrestling with whether I want to add another quick scene (probably another random encounter), or if I want to start on the programming for the update. I'll make a decision one way or another my tomorrow, tonight I'm planning to do the initial rough lines for another Cosplay Cafe art piece. I'm hoping (possibly unrealistically) to finish 2 more art pieces by the end of the month. But that will only bring me up to 8 of the 12 I had originally planned...and I added one that I didn't originally plan for, so 8 of 13, unless I trim out one of the location pieces.
That's not nearly as far along as I'd hoped to be by this point. Part of that is the improved art quality costing more time per-piece, but even with that mixed in, just as much or more is the fact that I've been fighting a bad case of burnout. I knew from the beginning that I wouldn't be able to sustain working on 2 games simultaneously forever, not unless support increased massively enough to allow me to cut down my freelancing hours a lot, and at this point I've been working on both together for 11 months. As much as is frustrates me to leave Eros Academy unfinished, I can possibly describe how much of a relief it will be to be able to shut down development on it at the end of the year and focus purely on Cosplay Cafe.
