Status update Episode 3 (Patreon)
Content
This week I've been focusing on creating the biggest free roam of the Episode. It's taken a lot of time and energy, but the result will be something I'm really proud of.
There's still a lot of work left to do and today I wanted to show you some actual numbers for the current status of the development.
What I have completed so far:
29 full scenes (code, music, renders, animations, dialogue, the whole shebang)
A total of 1381 static renders
A total of 45 animations
What's left to do:
20 scenes remain (some are near completed, some are partially completed and a few have no content so far). I estimate the script to be 80% completed.
It's tricky to estimate the number of renders left to produce, given that the script isn't at 100%, but it's probably somewhere around 800-1200 more.
I think the final animation count will be somewhere in the 90s, or early 100s, I have ~40 animations in the render queue and I know I want to do at least 10 more on top of that.
My view on the development status
This Episode became much bigger that I originally intended for, I was trying to make it smaller than Episode 2, but I have promised myself to not limit my creativity. This is not a bad thing, because who doesn't want a lot of content in an update?
What this means, today, is that I'm about 50% done with the Episode.
Thank you all for bearing with me during the months of development! Your patience and support makes me want to push harder to deliver something spectacular to you.
Other news
This week, I added additional rewards (previews and wallpapers) to the $30 and $40 tiers.
I'm not cutting back on posts/previews for the other tiers, but I want to increase the rewards for the higher ones.
Have a great weekend!
