Star Knightess Aura Release 1.3.0-prerelease-7

ITCH | MEGA | ITCH-DELUXE | MEGA-DELUXE

Minor prerelease for the week. Mostly delivering the new cutin for the old selling panties scene. Our assistant developer Trihan has also finished his background work in improving the technical backbone for pixel animations.

Since I still need start writing the Roland x Lorraine and Aura scene, I currently gave our artist the small task to create a new naked pose for Aura in Riverflow Artist 3. Eventually I would also like to have the illustrations the artist creates, but that means committing to 3 assets. So for now it will just be Aura's standing image changing to fit the scene.

As I mentioned in the project plan, this week is mostly administrative, so despite this being an SKA prerelease post, I will probably talk more about Liora :'D. I have spent quite some time on the Liora side advancing the recruitment of a voice actress for Liora. Here is the current state of the poll

Since there are clearly 3 candidates who are ahead and I can finance test commissions of up to 3, I decided to already move ahead and invite the three to do a test commission. I have picked the date scene as the subject for it. In order to provide our VAs with the necessary manuscripts, I worked on a small tool to export the RPGMaker dialogue to a hopefully more useable format for them.

There is probably still more that can be improved but I hope that alongside a video recording of the scene, it will serve as a good starting point. While I have gained a lot of experience in directing artists over the past years, VA direction is a new for me, so it will probably take some time to build up a good workflow.

The VAs are still checking out the material, so not sure yet when I will have not determined a deadline yet for the test commission.

I still have one item of admin work left, finishing the accounting for the last year's revenue report... Guess that will be on the menu for the weekend. x_X Next week: Back to continuing the Roland events!

Alright, so much for the "SKA" prerelease post. :'D I would have put this into a Liora post, but there isn't anything to deploy there besides like two bugfixes for now.
