Weekly Report 40 - No More Secrets | Episode 7
Hello guys,
Last week I have worked mostly on the text. I made about 50% of the conversations and when I was tired of the text, I have tried to prepare the lighting and the props of the new scenes which are going to be in the upcoming episode, but this was a bit of a failure, so most probably I'll have to change the text a little bit.
The release of the next episode will be on 14th or 21th of June.
Last week I have created a poll for 20$ and 40$ patrons. In this poll they had to choose between 2 features. One was a social media app where you could see photos of the NPCs based on your progress in the story. This app could have helped in creating a better personality for each character. The other was an achievement system where based on your progress with each girls you unlock some hot images.
They winner of the poll was the achievement system, so the next episode is going to have this feature too.
Also I want to point something out, that many have missed. There are a few goals for this page. The first two episodes had many options and decisions, because I have worked on them much longer. The second episode was 50% done when I made the release for the first episode, however it's hard for me to create many outcomes with big impact in the time I have, so I cannot make bigger impact decisions, at least not yet.
Also I know that you wanted animations in the game, which is also part of a goal. I need to upgrade my gear or event buy a machine which will render only animations, because right now my current rig takes about 1/2 hours for a frame. So if I am to render a 2 seconds animation will take me 60 to 120 hours of non stop rendering.
Anyway I got to go to work and I'll continue working on this game tonight.
Best regards,
Jason

I always thought animations were overrated anyway, your renders are so good and crisp i dont think you need to worry yourself with them, if you keep going the way you are going i dont think anybody can complain, Episode 5 & 6 were both fantastic.
Oh and i love to see a game around here were are normal looking femals and not every character needs oversized boobs...
In my opinion you are doing a very great job overall. I feel a bit lost in the school, because somtimes i dont know where i have to go... but at all, you are doing an grad A performance! I love the evolution of the story, the characters, the graphic,... and so on. So if you say you couled do a better performance with more contant and desissions for each episode if you get more time? I would love to get these more developed content and say: Take the time you need to do a job were you love the result. Otherwise you maybe quit without finishing the game because you dont like the result... and me too :)
