Hey guys, another update on how everything is going:
I have done a couple of tests on the new method for lowering the game size, so far it looks like it is working out perfectly. When I am done, my hope is that the game will be one-third or at least half the size it is now.
Personally, I think that would be amazing for the future of the game as I will not have to worry about the type or amount of content I can add in future patches.
I have also a bit of good news for the mac users. I somehow managed to run a VM on my pc that allowed me to build a version of the game on a mac. It was quite a bit of a struggle, especially for someone who has never used a mac before. And I’m not going to lie, it’s a very roundabout method of building the game. Typically, it might take me up to 6 hours just so that I can copy 150 GB worth of files into the VM and build it. However, if this really works out as I hope it will, macOS users in the future should not have any kind of issues when installing the game on their systems. This is all still in theory but I have my fingers crossed.
There are still incredibly a lot of CG’s I have to change from previous patches, I don’t know how many are left but when I started I believe they were about 12000 of them…
So in order to make the patch come out as fast as possible, once I am done with the route I am currently working on, I will release the patch! My estimate is that I will be done in a week from now.
The patch will contain 1 Beth route, 1 Morticia route and 1 Tricia route.
The 3 routes contain 5 events which are very long. I’ll activate the skip button for those who just like to skip to the juicy parts.
Originally, I had started with Summer’s core route but halfway through the script, I was way more inspired to work on Morticia’s route instead. I’ll very likely get back on Summer right after I post this patch.
There is really a lot of Beth in this patch and I’m very excited for your guys to play through what I’ve been working on. Tons of new models and characters. One of my favorite places I’ve created so far in their universe but I’ll let you guys see it when the patch comes out.
I’d like to thank you all again for your patience. I know this time around it’s been taking me way longer than normal, but I’ve had to make some core changes to the game which I had not expected when I first started this project. There are things I wished I had done differently when I started, but I’m still learning.
Thank you all for your support, stay awesome!
