MBML Ch.1 - Episode 1 [Status Report #6] (Patreon)

Hey there, folks! Now that I officially released the update, I'm back for a bit of a status report. I won't dive deep into the game's status this time as I have another thing to let you know. 

In any case, here are our current numbers:
Previous lines of code: 6333
Lines of dialogues added(no coded images): 790
Total: 7123

Yeah, it will get bigger and bigger at this point. Part 2 won't be as big as part 1, but it's still more or less enough for an hour of gameplay if you read at an average speed. If I can give you an insight, Part 2 is where all the crumbs in a potato chip are. So prepare the tissues, but not on your tears this time.😋

Anyway, onto the main topic of this post. I haven't been that active in letting you know about my "in real life" stuff. So I want to take this time to let you know what's up.
I'm currently in the process of upgrading my PC, and that is holding back my work speed at the moment. I wanted to get it all done within a day or two, but some parts were out of stock, and we had to outsource it. Almost every other day, I turn over my setup to my supplier, which hinders my work for nearly a day. With that in mind, this will undoubtedly push Part 2 back a bit. But in the end, I will have the peace of mind that my PC won't blow up on me due to the workload I'm putting on it.

For better transparency, here are the parts I bought for the upgrade:
- 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-11900 @ 2.50GHz
- RTX 3080(Gigabyte)
- TUF Gaming B560M-PLUS(Motherboard)
- AORUS WATERFORCE X 360(CPU Cooler)
- CORSAIR RM Series RM850 850 Watt 80 PLUS Gold(Power Supply)
- Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 250GB
- 2x 16GB Kingston Fury DDR5 RAM
- Also bought a 4k monitor so I can multitask better

Yeah, that is a lot! It's like I bought a whole new PC. But I won't have to upgrade again for a very long time with all that beef.😅
Thanks to all of your support up to this point. Without you guys, I won't be able to afford all that, let alone stand at this industry stage. You all have my eternal gratitude.

Now, what happened to my old setup? It's almost a year since I got that one, but it's still running smooth, so I donated it to a close friend and a fellow developer: Ekko.

Special thanks to my top tiers who helped us get the new setup:
Kainan and MarkX. You guys are heaven-sent!

Again, I will have to turn over my setup for the CPU Cooler's installation today.
I'll catch you later, guys!
Take care and have a nice day!
