Dev diary, 30th of October, 2020 (Patreon)

Time for the Friday progress report.

This has been a very busy week. I've scripted about 1000 lines of dialogue/script, along with adjusting the new scenes to past choices.

Render count is at 2112 animated and 425 static renders. That's a whopping 874 renders increase this week (or one every 12 minutes on average).

The Lexi route is done, in addition to some random small scenes with the whole gang, the 'Bunny v2' (with and without Steph), and extended the confessionals (previously known as the start of Truth or Dare).

Next week I'll try to do mainly static renders covering both the Linda route and some other story related scenes. I'll still run animations, because it's hard to pose enough renders to get the batch-rendering going constantly, when I only have a few hours every evening to pose them.

I know I hinted that the second part of Chapter 4 will have a shorter development period than the first. Though, with the prolonged render times for Lexi and me expanding her route a bit, has left me way behind where I'd like to be by now. It doesn't mean I've been slacking, but giving more content where I expected it to be less. In fact, the Lexi route now has a total of 9 different scene locations.

Hopefully concentrating a bit more on the story going forward will make it easier to predict a release date for this part, but for now it's too early to say anything. Sorry about that.

Have a happy Halloween, and to quote Lexi: Trick or Treat?
