Patreon Post 23.12.2017 (Patreon)

as promised, here is our roadmap for 2017/2018. 

This is an overview of what needs to be done for our goldmaster (release version) by the end of 2018.

By the beginning of October 2017, we started the Vertical Slice phase and this is the chunk that we are working on at the moment.

 As you can see, there is still a lot to do ;) 

Pre Production I
Mainly setting up the Characters and to evaluate the technical approach for the "Sex". We will put focus on UI Flows to provide a general "what will it feel like" experience to further adjust, modify, optimize in the coming Month.

Pre Production II
This will result in a prototype and/or prototype modules aimed to tackle performance, scope and vision of the core gameplay as a whole. We will have a good understanding how desired quality can be divided throughout main production, what to focus on and if all major elements of the game work together.

Vertical Slice Prototype
Focus on creating the production framework that all departments will deliver to. We aim for a modular architecture that is ready to receive all upcoming content. Finalize Pipelines for all departments based on learnings, performance budgets and performance prototypes. We will use these learnings to collaboratively define the goals, timings and solutions of the actual main production.

Main Production
Main Production specifies the production phase where all frameworks, pipelines, communications and scope have been successfully defined and established. The majority of content creation will take place here. Yet to be defined features such as Localization, Tutorials and Voiceovers will be tackled, implemented and finalized. Monthly builds should guarantee that we are both technically and content wise setup to get through the store review process (e.g.: all Icons, descriptions, regulations are met).

Patreon Beta Test
Releasing the game for our Patreon-Supporters who are already very engaged as community gives us the opportunity to dynamically react to user feedback. All energy on Bug fixes and submission preparation. Get the most stable product possible.

Release
Releasing the game globally on all given platforms (Steam,Nutaku,DMM,Patreon)

We hope this gave you a better understanding about what is going to happen in 2018.

Merry Christmas guys!
