DevBlog 0.8

Hello everyone! As promised earlier, in this devblog, I'll provide more information about the development progress.

Let's start with the work on the first episode:

I have successfully completed the overhaul of the kitchen scene and am now moving on to finalize the morning scene. According to my estimates, it will take a minimum of 4 days, and it will result in approximately 150-200 renders.

I have also finally finished the development of the auto repair shop scene (a Blender screenshot is attached below). Now, I need to pay attention to details and add a bit more to the scene to create a more natural background.

Moving on to programming, I plan to make changes to the main menu by adding additional details such as update notifications, background changes, and a scene gallery. Additionally, I continue working on the phone functionality. More time is being devoted to design rather than coding. The UI/UX aspect is crucial for me to ensure that players find it comfortable and easy to interact with the in-game phone.

Recently, I found excellent courses on character animation and environment design. I've scheduled their study to not interfere with the development process. I'm excited about everything related to animation, and I hope these courses will help me bring my ideas to life.

Now, regarding the music, I promised to let you listen to one of the tracks. Currently, I am working on music for dramatic and captivating scenes. Perhaps, a bit later, I will share one of them with you.

In conclusion, I plan to release a revised version for the English-speaking audience soon. Many have pointed out that some dialogues seem like machine translations. Thank you all for your feedback; your opinions are valuable to me.

That's it for now; see you in a week. Until our next meeting!
