News: July 2021 (Patreon)

This month's update is roughly half done at the moment. All of the spells for Forbidden and Lost Magic are done but untested. After testing those I'll be focusing on advancing the main quest. The side-quest that was nearly finished last month just needs some renders as well. Any remaining time I have will go to updating the scenes that are missing pregnant variants. Most likely, the only new scenes this update will be with the new side-quest.

The rest of this post will be detailing the roadmap for the rest of this year. It's just a rough preview. Nothing is final. I'll squeeze in any of the smaller things here and there when I have time alongside the things listed below.

July - Main Quest's two paths continue and finally rejoin where our flying friend makes an interesting discovery. Expect to learn some new spells and see some familiar faces.

August - New Summoning levels including 2 new summons that function like the current ones. (New scenes, side quests, etc.)

Sept - The search for "you know who" becomes the main focus now that our crew is ready. It seems there's a temple hidden in the deserts of Akraulia. Who or what could be there?

Oct - Jobs (with new scenes) as another income source. Earth bar, Xiea factory, Akraulia's spa are currently planned. Possibly more to be added later.

Nov - Earth's main quest chain involving two factions and a tower-dungeon. What secrets does this tower hold? Which faction will you choose? How does this all tie in with our search?

Dec - I think I'll do a poll for this one once it's closer. Here's the list of the main missing features: School clubs (Cheerleading, Sports, Scroll Club, Alchemy), Ruins (New levels, enemies, gear), Missing scenes for existing characters, Main character customization (Tattoos, Outfits, possibly more), New romance characters (1 Female, 1 Sub male, 1 Dom male), Dates/Side quests with romance characters and summons.

Some things to note:

There will be some combat adjustments involving spell balance and possibly rework. I'll need to test things as I make adjustments. There will likely be various adjustments here and there over the next few versions. Hopefully I can get everything combat related functioning quite well in time for the Ruins update.

The school sport will include a mini-game and thus take a bit longer to finish than the other clubs. Cheerleading and sports clubs are pretty closely tied together with some overlapping events and scenes.

Missing scenes will be added (hopefully) every update. I don't think I will need to dedicate an entire month's development to it.

I can easily add tattoos at any time once Earth's map is done, but it will take some time to update every scene. Another "magical" tattoo option will be available on the Otioru planet as well once it's added.

The romance characters will be a bit different. You will meet them through the school clubs, romance them, then unlock scenes. So the order for that has to be: Club -> New romance character -> Dates/Side quests -> Scenes. Vivi will have date options added as well, but not required to unlock scenes. (Who's tied to what club?: Female = Alchemy, Sub male = Scroll club, Dom male = both Cheerleading and Sports clubs.)

New worlds should also be on the list above, but not in the poll. I'll simply add the new worlds and maps alongside the main quest's progression.

The main quest will see some heavy story moments once the search concludes. (But what will we find.. Or not find?) I want to end the main story with a climax and the possibility for more, in case you guys want that. (That wasn't a pun this time, seriously.) After the main quest, you will be able to return to gameplay and post-game will unlock. Honestly, I want to share more, but I'm going to end up spoiling something. I'm most likely going to start working on the next game alongside SC's post-game development. I obviously won't start that until everything but the post-game is complete, allowing me to consider SC complete (except for post-game). This will allow me to continue posting smaller updates for SC while the next game is still in its unplayable state.
