Law School Episode 3 - Progress update #4

Hello everyone,

This past week has been decent—not as productive as I’d hoped, but still solid. It started off strong, but I didn’t maintain the same momentum toward the end. Unfortunately, I’ve been running on an average of 4 hours of sleep per night, which took a toll on my energy and productivity over the last couple of days. That said, starting the week strong helped me make some progress.

I want to apologize, as I usually create special renders for you all around Christmas. However, it’s been a challenging time lately, and the overwhelming workload I’m tackling forced me to skip it this year. Now let's talk about some good news.

First, about the hardware issue I mentioned previously: I should be receiving the components in early January, except for the GPU, which I’m purchasing from another dev located in the USA. I’m not sure how long it’ll take to get here to my little corner of Ireland, but overall, it’s good news—especially since the animation queue is growing fast!

I’ve also invested in some new tools to help with creating my 3D scenes, which should arrive in early January. I’m excited to try them out and see how much they enhance my workflow.

Now, let’s talk numbers:

• 537 static story images

• 24 animations

• 9 scenes fully written

While I didn’t create as many 3D scenes as I’d hoped (only 126 new images this week versus my goal of 200), I’ll chalk that up to the lack of sleep. Still, progress is progress, and I’ll aim to do better moving forward.

On another note, today is the 30th, and I’ve got a small gathering planned for tomorrow. I’ll take some time to unwind and (hopefully) come back recharged and ready to crush it starting January 1st.

Lastly, I want to take a moment to thank you all for an incredible year. It’s been just over a year since I went full-time on Law School, and I couldn’t have done it without your support. We recently hit 700 subscribers, which is an amazing milestone to close out 2024.

A few days ago, I was watching some friends play my games on Discord, and amidst the occasional moments of cringe, I found myself hallucinating. I couldn’t believe that people were actually playing and enjoying something I had created, built from the ground up, and refined with the help of so many. It was a truly rewarding experience.

Looking ahead to 2025, I’m thrilled about what’s to come: the release of Episode 3 and the launch of Law School on Steam. I’ll keep giving it my all, and I hope the new year brings you health, happiness, and success.

Time to get back to work now, so I’ll see you all next year (had to say it!).

Cheers,
MisterMaya
