Back to work | Status Report #12

Hello everyone!

It's been exactly one month since the last update was released, and I'm back with the newest Status Report. But before we get into it, I want to welcome all new and, of course, all existing patrons. Your support makes these games possible! We all know that without your financial help, I wouldn't have enough time to do any of this.

I just came back from a little vacation, visiting family in the countryside and recuperating some of my creative energy. Now I'm back in front of the PC and ready to dive headfirst into version 0.7. Let me tell you what I've done so far and what I have planned for this update.

What is done:

After the release of 0.6, I did what I always do when an update is finished. I open a new document and start planning my next steps. Steps for the next update and steps for the entire rest of the game. Doing so, I came up with a roadmap that'll lead us to version 1.0 of the game, one update at a time. I now know, kind of precisely, the exact contents of all remaining updates and the exact contents of all future sex scenes that'll be added to the game. It'll be fun. Someone asked for pet play in the comments a while back. Your wish will be granted.

Then, after I did a deep dive into my planning document, I started putting those plans into action in the form of the first written drafts of the two sex scenes that'll be added in 0.7. This first draft is always very rough, a huge ordeal, and a very great start! I hate filling in a blank page; it takes a lot out of me. But once it's done, everything else starts to fall into place.

I get a clear image of every pose I need to create and every animation I need to animate. Very useful. It allows me to turn off my brain, head into Blender, and just focus on the visuals. I also did the same planning for two little story events that the game will have, as well as another little goody. Then, I went on my little vacation.

What is ahead:

Now I'm back, and there is plenty of work to do for 0.7. Planning everything is very nice and has made the picture much clearer. It's immensely important for my brain to function, but it's also not the flesh and bones I want to create. So the next step is to do just that.

The rest of this week and the next few weeks will be spent in Blender. Posing, rendering, posing, rendering, animating, and even more rendering. A little modelling as well—there are some sex toys that need 3D models made—but mainly the posing and animating side of things. I'm already looking forward to seeing these scenes take shape. I think they'll be quite enjoyable for everyone.

And that is everything I have to report! I wish everyone a great week. Stay tuned for the next report, and I'll get back to working on MGLH.
