Chasing Sunsets Ch 4 Dev Update 2
Here we are just about a month following the release of Chapter 3, and we've made a lot of headway.
As of today, Chapter 4 is about 45% complete, and Kent is averaging about 25 new images per night.
I've been working on a few items requested by patrons:
Adjustable font size in the textbox
General code and structure cleanup
Minor UI tweaks to make Android ports work properly
More clarity around relationship status
Better intro tutorial for new players
Looking at adding a music player to the main menu
In the meantime, Kentyrr has been backfilling dialogue with new art, and my PC is working around the clock to kick out the renders.
The most challenging artwork of the chapter does lie ahead of us, but we're looking forward to seeing what we can do with some of the most demanding scenes in the game to date.
That said, you can look forward to more of the lighthearted banter that defined the last two chapters as our MC navigates into new waters with Mallory, Jaye, and some new arrivals to the island.
As previously announced, there will be some minor changes to the Tier system when/if our project is accepted on Steam. One of the Steam requirements is that we cannot make the game available elsewhere for less. We have some ideas in mind to ensure our $1.00 patrons aren't left out in the cold, however.
The last thing we want is to leave behind the fans who contribute what they can and hang out in our Discord with us every day!
In the meantime, we're both working to bring you the next part of our story as quickly as we can. Kent starts posing and scene building the moment he gets in the door from work, and not very many days go by that I'm not actually doing game-related work while I'm doing my day job.
There WILL be a Livestream after the Ch4 launch, so start thinking about any questions you may have for Kentyrr and I.
With that, we'll leave you with this:
May you all find a partner who looks at you the way Mallory looks at Alex's lunch!
