Heya guys and girls!
Still busy fighting uni, but I will cut it shorter this time. Partially being a bit tired from talking about it constantly... Short version being:
University is currently quite hard, but mostly due to their over-complication and bureaucracy/paperwork, honestly I have no idea yet if my special projects and internship (both mandatory) will be accepted. I should know more in a week or 2?
Now onto the game itself. I only managed to work on it one of the 2 weeks since the last update, due to the above reasons. But we definitely got some progress done, especially considering multiple new maps both created and used. Compared to Episode 3 with roughly ~10 different places shown, this will vastly outnumber it. A lot of npcs and side characters needed to be created, and I hope it will be worth it in the final product of the renders themselves.
Idk, it's hard to have unique maps and places unless you make everything from scratch (which requires talent, time, or money to pay others to do), but I think I managed ok with what I had. Sometimes just changing some parts of the stock maps to be your own can make it stand out compared to other games using the same assets.
With around 150 new renders since last progress update, we broke the mark for 700 renders done. Considering 700 is around 30% renders, it just shows how big this update will be. Many things that I wish to be portrayed in Episode 4, after all.
In a way, that's also a bad thing as even if I wasn't extremely busy with uni, it would still take longer to make this one.
And speaking of those renders,it's about time I make some sneak peeks right? (Only took ahm a few months ๐).
So yeah, you can expect Sneak peek in this month (this upcoming weekend) for the tiers that have that benefit!
That's it for this one. Honestly, I'll just put the theoretical timer on when I will be done with majority of uni related things as that will also mark when I get my freedom (mostly) back.
Weeks remaining till freedom: 8 ๐
As always, thank you all for your patience, and I hope I won't disappoint you with the update.
Take care, Kat <3
