Law School Episode 5 - DevLog #9

Man, there’s no better feeling than being locked in.

Last week was solid. I finally moved on to the next day of the update, and getting to work with a bunch of characters I hadn’t touched in a few weeks (or what felt like years) was genuinely nice.

Day 1 is done, and it’s a big baby: 1,341 renders and 69 animations (not even on purpose). Content-wise, that’s bigger than Episode 1 of The Entrepreneur… and I did that in 9 weeks lol. And I gotta say, this last LEWD scene holds its own against the other two, easy. I haven’t rendered the animations yet, but I’m feeling pretty confident they’re gonna look good.

Moving on to Day 2, I designed two of Fang’s friends (2 down, 6 to go) for this big halloween party scene. This day is also shaping up to be massive, but I’ve tackled a good chunk of it already.

Here are the numbers right now:

  • Static renders: 1,509

  • Animations: 71

  • Story content: 27 scenes written (23,605 words)

That’s +205 renders since last week, and +4 animations. I also experimented with a bunch of short 0.5-2 second animations stitched together like a montage, and it turned into an 18 second animation that looks surprisingly nice. I’ll still count it as one animation, of course, but I knocked it out in about 8 hours, and I’m honestly really happy with how it turned out. Kinda sucks it’s only visible on the altruistic/neutral path, but hey… that’s branching for you.

In other news: I’m taking Friday off to swap computer parts and build the new desk setup I ordered. So I probably won’t hit another 200-render week, but I’ll do my best.

Work is still going strong. I’m pushing for the next milestone (2k renders) as fast as I can, and I’m really looking forward to delivering this episode.

Alright, back to work. Catch you next week. Have a great one,

MisterMaya

GOOD MONDAY MORNING 🌄🌞, M-MAYA AND EVERYONE!!! I guess... Why? What did you do 😂? Oh… You meant "locking in on the game." I thought you meant, like, physically… locked in your room due to circumstances 🤣. Very nice on other characters 👍🏻! "That's a big boy 😛!" (Day 1) "2 out of 8 of Fang's friends? I BET… IT SOUNDS HUGE 🤯!" Always nice to see the numbers 😋. The production 😛! That animation sounds A-MA-ZING 😇! Take your sweet time… Give me more time to work to get my LTOP and catch up (I got delayed… again 🤣). Next month should be the final month of me going LTop-less. I'll be all caught up and have all the paths before the next release of LS (hopefully 🤞🏻), since there ARE a lot of AVNs to catch up on; we are going on 8 months of missed playing time 😅. You'll reach that milestone soon 😁… As always, thanks for the DevLog, M-Maya!!! Keep on keeping on, 😉!!! ALWAYS EXCITED AND EAGERLY WAITING FOR YOUR GAME AND READING YOUR POSTS 🙌🏻🔥!!! Love and appreciate everything! You ❤️, your ladies 😍, your posts 🥰, and your games ❤️! Always make my days better 🌈! Thank you, everyone, always, for being in my life and being a part of my routine 😉! Stay safe, stay blessed, and stay in PERFECT health, beautiful people! And don't forget to stay hydrated! And you're never alone ❤️🫶🏻🫰🏻!!! OUR AVNS AND OUR DEVS CONNECTS US ALL 🤗!!! Have an amazing and beautiful week! I'll catch you all—ON THE NEXT ONE ✌🏻😁!!!

200 renders and some animations in a single week? Damn! Not seen this much in a week from any other dev (That I can recall). Extremely impressive Mr M. Hope you have a good week mate and no issues with the part swapping and desk setup!
