REBORN: Status Update Act 3

The latest development news.

Like I said in the last report, I've been busy making character notes pretty much all week. It turned out to be a pretty labor intensive process. I had to rebuild each character (clothing, pose) and make separate renders. On top of that, I was designing the app itself. I think this is one of the most difficult stages, because a huge amount of time is spent on coming up with a beautiful interface (font, color, pattern).

After all that, you have to size the character render and process the frames. It takes a lot of time, considering that I often have to change the design right during final development. Rarely do I get something I like the first time around.

Then there's the code. Writing the code turned out to be quite challenging as well. I was not lazy and made different categories for more convenience when you need to find the desired character in the list. I did this code for the first time and caught quite a few mistakes before I got a working version.

The experiment with the skin I described in the last report went well. I got the desired result. Now the animations will look even more realistic and hotter.

Today the voting for the New Year's render ended. The winners are Emily, Grace, Rebecca.

Emily got the most votes (23), so she will get a separate New Year's rendering

Towards the end of the year, a lot of work and household chores piled up. I think everyone has had to deal with it. But as hard as it is, it's important to tackle everything and meet deadlines (I hope I don't go crazy).

Strength to us all and as many positive things in life as possible. Have a great weekend!
