Progress Update - Episode 15

Made some good progress the last couple of weeks. The first scene for the second day, aka training session number 1, is already finished. It is the smaller one of the 2 training scenes, but still. Happy one is done. But the second training scene is the one scene I looked forward to the least of al...

Happy New Year!

I'm back and ready to continue working on this large episode...
Not much yet to communicate other than day 1 is completely finished. All the renders are done, and 80% of the coding is done. The last 20% is for when day 2 is ready, which I started working on this week. Whi...

Progress Update - Episode 15

Probably the last progress update of the year, since I'll be gone from next week until the new year.
The Valeria scene has been finished. I'm working on the last small scenes to finish the first day. One of the scenes is the new scene I talked about a little while ago. I wasn't sure if I would...

Quick update:
The big scene is finally done. Actually, a week and something ago. So happy that is over. I was getting frustrated myself, working so long on one scene.
Started working on the Valeria date. Which will be much smaller than the previous scene. I'm actually already halfway done wi...

Progress Update - Episode 15

Quick update:
I'm almost done with the scene I've been working on for what seems forever. I'm at the very last part of the scene. Two or three more days will do it. It turned from wanting to work on this scene to now hating it. But I'm happy it's almost done, and I can finally start with the n...

Progress Update - Episode 15

First something I can't believe I actually have to write. A few weeks ago, I got info that someone who copies these progress updates and posts them at other places, changes what I'm writing here. I checked it out myself and sadly, it was indeed true. I know this one will be posted too at other pla...

Progress Update - Episode 15

Short little update.
Still working on that same scene and will be for a bit longer. I've finished the first part for 1 route and I went back to the start to work on route 2 for that part. I can reuse some of the renders, so it will be a little quicker but in the majority, I still have to switch...

Progress Update - Episode 15

As mentioned last time. I've started working on one of the last two big scenes of the first day, and I love it, but hate it at the same time. Mainly because of the choices that influence the scene, which I have to keep in mind. I even removed a character from that scene because that would've made ...

Progress Update - Episode 15

That small phone call scene I was working on and wanted to finish before I start the work on the last 2 big scenes of the first day turned into 5 scenes. Those are all scenes to bring all the different routes to the same point in the story. So while working on that 1 scene, I figured, wait, I need...

Progress Update - Episode 15

Hey everyone,
I'm finally back from my vacation. All rested up and ready again to continue working on this story.
Before I went away, I prepared quite a few scenes and had someone render them for me while I was gone. I already checked them and I'm happy with the result, minus a few post-rend...

Progress Update - Episode 15

Hey, everyone.
It has been a while. I've been back from my first vacation for a few days and will be going on my next in 2 weeks.
A lot of work has been done, though. All the renders which I couldn't render during the heat wave have been rendered + a few extra. All the rendered scenes for this episode...

Progress Update - Episode 15

Progress is still going steadily, but there are a few things I want to talk about.

First, the reason why there weren't any preview pictures. Last week, like many countries in Europe, we had a heat wave, and it was incredibly hot. 40+ degrees where I live. I tried to render, but the PCU was rea...

Quick little progress update.
Still working on the morning scene since it has a few variations. I hope I can finish it this week. I've had enough of creating MC waking up scenes. I've made quite a few already. Maybe I should just skip them in the future, but then again, it's an easy way to see when a new...

Progress Update - Episode 15

The story continues...
Normally, I would take some time off after a release to recharge and relax a bit, but I won't be doing that this time. That's because I'll be going on two vacations in July and August, during which I won't be able to do much. I will be able to work on the script and maybe do some c...

MC Bike repair and maybe a recolour?

Hey,

Spoiler Alert! If you haven't played episode 14 yet, don't read any further.

Since MC's bike got scratched up in the latest episode, it needs repairing and a new splash of paint. Now is the chance to change the colour or keep it as it is now.
Sadly, the asset doesn't really allow for creating interesting designs without spending a whole lot of time on it. So I only changed...

Episode 14 - Info and answers

Hey,

I will be on Discord later today, 21:00 (GMT+1), to talk about some stuff I mentioned in previous progress updates regarding certain scenes that were pushed forward, pushed to the back, and some scenes that were scrapped due to that. That might contain some spoilers, but I try to keep it to a minimum.
I also want to know what you think about some new stuff I tried in episode 14, ...

Progress Update - Episode 14

I've got some bad news. I'm sorry, but the ETA I gave last week was wrong. That's also the main reason why I never answer questions that ask for release dates.
All the coding for episode 14 is done, and I'm in the middle of testing it. I made a few small rewrites in the script to make it flow better. I'v...

Progress Update - Episode 14

Okay... I have a few things to talk about.

First, the progress for episode 14. All renders are done, and the post-render work is also done. The "re-coding" for the episode-3-remake is done, and I coded the first part of episode 14 and tested it already. I put some music/background noise in the first ...

Progress Update - Episode 14 + Poll

I've finished the smaller ending scene. Normally, this scene would play out a little differently, but because of certain reasons, I couldn't put it in the game. I will talk about it though on discord after the release if people are interested in it. It will also highlight what scenes are scrapped due to pus...

Progress Update - Episode 14

I've finished all the smaller scenes I talked about last time. Now there's only 1 big scene and a small ending scene left to do. Actually, this episode can end in 3 different ways depending on the route and choices you made. The small ending scene will probably be done in a few days, the larger scene will t...

Progress Update - Episode 14

 Progress is still going steady. I'm working on a few smaller scenes before the last big scene of this update. The smaller scenes are mostly just phone calls, texts, and the sorts just to give a few LI's a little screen time. It won't be much.
Now to an issue. It's more of a future issue, but it migh...

 Quick little progress update.
I wrote last time that there was some backlog, but I'm all caught up again to where I want to be at this point in time.

Sorry for the lack of progress updates lately but February was just crazy busy workwise. There was also some personal stuff going on. I hope March will be less stressful.
Anyway... Progress for episode 14 is still going steady. I might be a day or two behind where I wanted to be. But I have a coup...

Progress Update - Episode 14 - Q&A

Quick little update:
I'm working on the first back-in-school scene and made the smart (read sarcasm) decision to let MC ride his motorcycle to school. The following info is also why I try not to use his motorcycle in too many scenes but rather in exclusive scenes only.
I have to make 2 routes, one with...

Hey everyone,

Just a quick poll to see if you are interested in a Q&A sometime next week on Discord.
You can ask me questions about the story, characters, certain scenes and so on... If you want an explanation about certain things or why I did or didn't do something specific. Or some general information about the game or how I create the game. Of course, I won't be answering spoil...

 Hey everyone,
Work on episode 14 has officially started this week. I had a nice vacation and truthfully, I needed a little break from the game. That's why I started a week later than initially planned. Episode 13 took a lot from me and I just needed to do some other things for a while. But I'm fully...

Alexis - Costume party

Hey everyone,

Alexis needs help deciding what she will wear to her costume party.
The choices are between Jessica Rabbit and Black Widow. Or do you maybe have another idea? Mind that I want to make use of the red wig and it needs to be 'animal-related'. Let me know in the comments and if there's a good idea, I might do another poll.
The scene won't be for the next episode!
