[Progress Report]: 10th of August

Hey everyone,

The week just started and I am already tired. Just one of those. I need to talk about Patreon.

A few of you have contacted me this week regarding the Patreon to Discord integration and I have noticed an issue. Patreon is not assigning the correct roles in the Discord to some current...

[Progress Report]: 3rd of August

Hey everyone,

Very short progress report today as I need to leave in a bit! It's my mother's birthday and if I'm late for that, I might not live to see the next one!

Joking aside, the progress this week is entirely on Riley's new class! You'll see some of the outfits above. If you're active in th...

[Progress Report]: 27th of July

Hey everyone,

You know it's for the main story if I haven't slapped a pretty girl on the image! While no "direct main story events" are planned for the upcoming version update, the distinction between main story event and character events is quite thin. The above event is mandatory for the main story t...

[Progress Report]: 20th of July

Hey everyone,

The fourth lecture event has been redone! I know that redoing old content isn't very exciting conceptually, but when you look at the before and after (like I've posted above!) I think that stimulates a ...

[Progress Report]: 29th of June

Hey everyone,

It's crunch week and the screaming begins.

I've hammered out the Harper events leading up to the H-scene and the H-scene itself is likely to take the whole week due to the animations. That will bring the total number of events to... six. Which, given I lost the first week, makes sen...

[Progress Report]: 22nd of June

Hey everyone,

Talk about whiplash. Above you'll see another Artemisia event and this one lays out some of the foundation of what you can expect coming up with the main story! Obviously no spoilers, but I think many of you will appreciate where we're going.

Meanwhile, I am switching gears e...

[Progress Report]: 15th of June

Hey everyone,

It's been a rough week but I'm pulling through it! Nothing as bad as the first week, just some minor things piling up. I'm coming down with a cold and the script has been fighting me for every line - now mastered to my will!

Above, you'll see Ferocitease! She took a break for a whil...

[Progress Report]: 8th of June

Hey everyone,

I won't lie to you guys, I had a fairly surprising and uniquely difficult family situation come up right after the early build released and it took the entire week from me. It's mostly settled now and I've been back hard at work since. You can see the fruits of my labor above!

The s...

[Progress Report]: 18th of May

Hey everyone,

It's crunch week and the screaming begins again!

I have got a very busy week lined up, with both a key Artemisia event and the Interrogation of Ojou-Trauma set to be finished over the next seven days! Needless to say, I'll be grinding everyday until release!

Above, though, you...

[Progress Report]: 11th of May

Hey everyone,

The mini character arc no one saw coming!

I want to talk about Artemisia.

You know, I try to keep the curtain firmly in place when I design content. I do fail. You guys are quite good at getting spoilers out of me, but I am trying. If I don't, you all know what's going to hap...

[Progress Report]: 4th of May

Hey everyone,

What a week. Above you'll see both Chrys and Valentina! This is part of my ongoing effort to bring the characters together when it serves the story best. This has the downside of dramatically increasing the render time, but these moments are important for showcasing that the Academy isn't...

[Progress Report]: 27th of April

Hey everyone,

Is this clickbait? Above, you'll see a brand new render featuring Victoria! Although, is for an old scene. When I mentioned the other week that I had finished another priority replacement event, I was talking about the very first protagonist event, which is the shower scene dream with Vic...

[Progress Report]: 6th of April

Hey everyone,

What a wild week, and next week is going to be even crazier! It's been a while since I've had a good ol' fashion crunch week. Sure, there's been deadlines, but a lot of those deadlines have been for things like the map navigation, the new menus, the story wiki, and so on. Now I'm back to h...

[Progress Report]: 30th of March

 Hey everyone,

March is ending already? Damn.

We're at the end of the fourth week of development and have four events done! That's a little slower than I would like, my preference would be at five and halfway through six, but the replacement of the first lecture event was a doozy and I'm stil...

[Progress Report]: 23rd of March

 Hey everyone,

Above you'll see a brand new Artemisia event! This one, like the ones before it, are building up to the upcoming Hospital Patrol. Honestly, I expected this scene to be fairly quick, but, as it turns out, Artemisia had a lot to say. The protagonist had a lot to say back, as well.

[Progress Report]: 16th of March

Hey everyone,

The Beast has been slain.

I've said this many times before, but the original lecture event was one of the oldest events in the game and remained in its current state because it took me three to fou...

[Progress Report]: 23rd of February

Hey everyone,

What a marathon. I mentioned this in the Discord, but my intention was to give Josie a short event this week. Just a small one. Something that would take about three days if we include the story boarding. She had some main story relevant content coming up and this was a good time to...

[Progress Report]: 16th of February

 Hey everyone,

Breaking out of old habits is hard. Above, you'll see a render from the third Valentina event of this update. You'll also see Riley!

When I first started game development, putting more than one character in a scene was almost impossible to render. The load times were horrendou...

[Progress Report]: 9th of February

 Hey everyone,

It's good to be back. I've been rendering all week and the writing feels incredible. The wiki has already proved its worth and I'm able to get lines out without the stress I had before. This should keep the output fairly stable from hereon out. Not that it was super unstable before, ...

[Progress Report]: 2nd of February

Hey, everyone

Once again, no images for this post because my mind is a block of text and you all need to feel my pain.

So, last update focused entirely on improving the game's navigation and menus. I'm happy to report that the reception has been unanimously positive. I don't think I've seen a single person say they preferred the old system, which is a relief and a balm to my soul. I...

[Progress Report]: 12th of January

Hello everyone,

What a crazy week, and the release is next week!? My goodness...

I'll cut right to current events. I'm safe and my neighborhood has not burned down. There was a bit of scare last week and I did have to evacuate for a little while, but it only cost a day or so. Things seem to be getting better around where I live and the work on the game is continuing.

Speaking ...

[Progress Report]: 5th of January

 Hey everyone,

It's January again. Join me for a quick chat as we celebrate the life and loss of the game's Relationship Panel menu. Yes, I'm serious. I've been coding all week and now I see why programmers are just as nutty as writers.

The relationship panel was introduced well past the laun...

[Progress Report]: 29th of December

Hey everyone,

I can't believe December is already ending. Did everyone survive Christmas? Are you feeling ready for the New Year? I'm not sure if I am!

I've spent this past week drawing up designs for the new relationship panel, which is why you're not seeing a render above this text block. Thanks to help in the Discord, I have a mock up that I'm working toward now and that I'd love...

[Progress Report]: 22nd of December

 Hey everyone,

It took the better part of two weeks and a lot of keyboard smashing, but I can say that we will have functional in-game icons showing you where content is in the next update! The main story has been taken care of, and I'm just finishing up by marking the sandbox content tonight. 2024-12-23 02:26:47 +0000 UTC View Post
