Dev Diary, 9th of October, 2020 (Patreon)

Happy friday, once again.

I hope you all have had a chance to play through the first part of Chapter 4, and that you enjoyed it.

The first week after an update will always have a very unflattering render count, but basically I've just been posing stills and animations, and let my computer pour them out. So, currently we're at 115 static renders and 260 animated ones. That's roughly 1/3 of the Lexi path done, and I'm very happy about the progress being made.

For next week, my main focus will be rendering animations. Normally I render animations at night and stills during the day, but if I were to do so on the animation that is currently rendering, it will take 2,5 weeks to finish - which is way too long.

On a positive note, that gives me free hands to work on dialogue and scripting, as it's the only thing I can do simultaneously to rendering on my dusty old dinosaur. :)

That about covers it for this week, and if you are a $5 or above patreon, feel free to check out my second post for a Lexi-path preview and some of my own thoughts about Chapter 4 and why I chose to release it the way I did.

Have a wonderful weekend.
