Progress Report (February - March) (Patreon)

Like last time, this comes a few days late due to me not feeling all that well. That said, some updates on where we're at.

Shoutout to Slaix who was very verbal as far as critiquing Orlando's update. Him, along with Rem made the pacing better for what's to come in the next update. Originally it was paced to be a bit faster as those present for the live reading will know, but if anything that's a confrontation to look forward to happening when the stakes are a bit higher, no? So with Orlando's done, we're also looking at Roswell's essentially finished, I just need to tweak a few more route-specific lines and his is ready to roll out.

Along with story content, and I'll be vague given that public has yet to know what is contained in the next patron update, the plan is to have a continuation included along with Roswell and Orlando. That's the plan, and a lot of it hinges on my health to be able to give it a proper go for reasons that should and will be obvious once the last round of content has been played.

As Patrons will know, there was an audio bug in the last build that kinda... was strange. The assumed solution was to start a new game and while that worked, it wasn't really fair to ask that of you knowing that chances are when the UI rolls out that might be a necessity as well. So, as of the next Patron build the game's OST will be implemented. Strangely enough this fixes the problem, and I don't know why, but at least you'll be hearing stuff composed specifically for Password. It won't be the full OST as there's one track left that needs to be composed.

There's been little to no development on the UI front, at least not yet. When I know more I'll let people know.

However, speaking as far as the 1080p update, I have been working on the new sprites. Eddio has been giving me a hand as far as setting things up and translating some of the designs across. We're still a ways off from seeing anything functional, but Orlando will likely be the first one brought up to 1080p first (at least as far as animation-ready), then I'll move onto Dean before adapting Oswin and Benson given they're essentially already there.

To wrap up, expect the update on the 15th with bare minimum 2 route updates.
