Friday Progress Update, Mar 15: "Partytime!"

Hello!

I feel like I need more creative ways to start these Progress Updates. Anyway, let's jump right into it and let this Friday know who's the boss.

So where do we stand? Well, I've finished day 13. And I mean really finished it.  461 renders, 10 animations. Post-worked, play-tested, and all ready to go. After that, I spent a ridiculously long time getting a gallery to work. In theory, I could have released 0.13.5 yesterday. But you guys said, keep working, we're fine with waiting to see more of Chris in her cat suit ... And out of her cat suit. So here we are.

Now I'm writing on the day 14 script. I hope to take it to my planned stopping point this weekend. After that, renders and then the usual, post-work and so on. Those final phases will be pretty fast this time around since I've just done all that for what I hope is the majority of the update.

So release when? Well. We're not close enough yet to talk about a date. I need to finish the script and get an idea of how many renders it will take.

So let's talk about a little about what route I picked for the gallery.

So this is a scene replay gallery, where you can filter between characters and type of content. You've all seen them before. They start out locked, and unlocks as you reach them (duh). For the very first release, it will probably contain new scenes for this release. I want to gather feedback on it before I go back through all previous content to add it.

I also made it so that when you unlock a scene, you unlock all branches of it. And when you start a replay scene, you're prompted to what path of the scene you want to play. I did it like that because I don't want menus to pop up during the replay. Unlocking all branches, even ones you haven't actually played seemed to be the most popular route to take. I'm still interested in opinions on this.

Something else that weighs heavily on my mind these days is how to balance content with girls we're doing naughty stuff with, versus the slower ones. Just because we've banged Beth and Hannah doesn't mean we're done. There's still so much to do with them! But at the same time, how are we ever going to progress to AtM Ashley if we keep smashing the same old girls. Am I right or am I right?

Well, I'll get back to writing on the script. I just blew half an hour's worth of creative writing right here! Luckily there's plenty of hours left of the day.

See you guys again soon, and thank you for your support!
