Weekly Report 230 - No More Money

Hi guys,
How is everybody doing? I hope you all are doing fine.

Before getting to the actual report, I want to apologize, but next week I'll be going back home to visit my family so this will be the last weekly report of 2023. I still have a small present for you, but that will come next week.

PROGRESS STATUS

Even though the progress bar shows 85%, the text is done. I have written all events, but I will still have to go back on a few events and rewrite some parts that I'm not entirely happy with, but I'll be doing this while I'm away. Next in the next weekly report the writing should be at 90%, which means it only needs proofreading. 

So far this episode is my favorite, maybe that's why I struggled so much writing it, but I'm sure once it's done you'll really enjoy it.

RELEASE DATE

Since I keep receiving messages about the release, I'll say this again. I can't estimate a release date yet and I don't want to lie to you. This episode is quite big. Even though I didn't made it public yet, my initial goal was before Christmas and yeah, I barely finished the text, then January, but looking at how much work I have to do, I that's not possible, so I hope it will be sometime in February, but like I said, I can't estimate a release date.
I usually work between 10 and 12 hours every day. If I manage to finish this episode in January, then you're in luck, but sometimes I need 10 hours to make an animation, while some other time it takes me 20-30 hours. The same thing goes for renders. There were days when in 10 hours I was able to make 50 renders and some days when I barely made 10. 

That being said, I hope you all have a wonderful week and Happy Holidays to all.

Bests,
Jason
