Chapter 8 weekly status report (9)
As I said last time, this'll be the last status report before the release of the Alpha version of Chapter 8. My goal is to release it by the end of the week, probably Saturday, if everything goes as planned.
The writing is finally done! The script ended up totalling aprox. 17.750 lines of code, so this chapter ended up being lengthier than I expected. Maybe not long, but dense.
Bug testing has been underway and keep going, now with a complete script. BloodyMares is helping me with that greatly, as usual, and Lara has been providing technical support too. Thanks to her, now the choices that are not available to you will appear greyed out, instead of being invisible, so you'll know when you have alternatives to explore.
I've also completed all the missing drawing and now I have to finalise all the assets. This is quite time-consuming, but it requires a lot less brainpower than writing, so I should be able to sit through all of them during this week.
Not much more to say, now it's all a matter of putting in the time to make everything look sexy and making sure all the pieces fit correctly before releasing the chapter. Working on it as you can see in this example below!

Soo, are we getting a update today, or...? :)
This is my first new release as a sub. How does Eva Kiss do Alphas/Betas? Are they closed? Or by Saturday does she mean release to Patreon on Saturday (possibly).
I have a question, Say you are on Lenas contacts and you see Everyone's relationship with her, Is that " How she feels about them ", " How they feel about her ", or is it just their general relationship with each other. I think it's how they feel about her but I second guess myself on that alot.
The bar represents the overall status of the relationship, how Lena or Ian feel about a particular individual and how that individual is likely to reciprocate.
Can't wait for the next chapter. Hoping for some more of Lena and Holly. Keep up the great work Eva.
Really looking forward to the next chapter, really love the artwork. Also the grayed out options will definitely make me come back and play more story lines.
True that!!
Oh, I love the idea of being able to see unavailable choices :)
Is that a new outfit?
IIRC Lena was wearing that top when she was having a dinner in the Yunalesca restaurant with Seymour.
Switch at options would be best solution: to hide the choices or grey out.
The picture is just lovely! I'll increase it in size and hang it on the wall as a visual aid! In general, in nature there are women-flowers, women-fruits and women-vegetables ! In this story, the majority of women are fruits that are outwardly attractive, smell divine and taste so pleasant that you will lick your fingers!
Not sure if I'll like the options to be grayed out instead of not visible... but we'll see ! (and also, I guess that having an option in the config to mark them invisible or grayed out isn't that complicated ^^) Feels like a long time I haven't played and move forward in the story, can't wait to get back to it ! Take care and keep up the good work !
Agreed, I think it makes more sense to keep them invisible
Is that a new top for Lena?? Love it!
I think Lena was wearing that top when she went to the dinner with Seymour.
Looking forward to it. Wish I could help with the testing since I explore every options there is anyway. And I actually like the unedited drawing already. Also, if it doesn't go as plan please don't feel pressure to release it if you don't feel like it. I can just see the incoming complain of bugs if that happens lol
Amazing news :) Good luck and thank you for your work :)
Looking forward to the Beta, must feel great getting it all together after the struggle.
That's really nice and passionate kiss! Thank you for the heads up.
