Friday Rambles 2023-06-16 (Patreon)

It ain't Friday til the Friday Rambles, as they say. On Tuesday night.

I've been busy with the same stuff I've been busy with for the past few weeks, so not a lot to say, again. PS: Happy late Father's Day.

Let's see...

Oh yeah! One of the things I was excited about was finally announced, in the form of a VTuber schedule. Take a look see:

That's right! Machina X Flayon, A Holostars Vtuber, is streaming my game! Tomorrow! Be sure to tune in and watch as he Vtubes it up in the Endless Monday. I'll probably be busy with family stuff. Tell me how it goes. I'll try and catch the VOD, unless idk, he thinks the game sucks and talks about how I'm a hack fraud of a gamedev who should stick to drawing portraits of anime ladies making stupid faces or whatever.

Anyway, since I gave perms to all of Hololive, I'm also dreaming that the Japanese Hololive Vtubers will also play the game once the JP localization is out.

Speaking of JP localization...

The JP Localization Team for Endless Monday: Dreams and Deadlines has been hard at work with revisions and final updates, and I've been able to complete all the graphical asset work, doing work in like... 10 minute increments. I think we're mostly done, but I still need to fix a couple bugs on my end. The timing is such that it might or might not be ready in time for the Steam Summer Sale, but I kind of want to make it a big update apart from the sale itself and stuff, so we'll see. It's still way ahead of schedule in any case since I was aiming for the Visual Novel Fest in August, but I'm also antsy to get it out as soon as possible.

Above: Wow! It's the rest of the store page! (Also achievements are all done too!)

In the meantime, I'm brainstorming ideas for the first content update for the game, which I'm planning for October. It'll be a short little story that takes place a few months after the events of the game. An outline is starting to take shape, but it's still pretty early in the process for now.

Gosh, I just love making games, please Japanese game players, please love my game and buy lots of copies so I can make more, please....

Ooh! My Jill Stingray Nendoroid pre-order finally shipped. It's arriving this week! PS: Goodsmile... please notice me...

I think that's it for this week. I'm sure you're all sick of hearing about localization work stuff, but I'm not really able to work on anything else right now anyway. I'll be more active in a couple weeks or so.

Thanks for all your support, as always! See you again, next week, probably?
