Weekly Scarlet Law (0.3.1) Progress (Patreon)
Content
Good evening people,
I hope you're all doing well. After speaking to some of the people here, I've decided to try and make more posts to keep people updated on the game. I don't normally like having more than 1 Dev Diary per month as I'd rather have one long informative post on what I'm working on but I'm going to try and have something posted every 1-2 weeks per month. I also don't like the idea of too many notifications on e-mail, and I would assume a lot of you folks are the same.
Regarding the current state of version 0.3.1, I have to admit, that progress has been fairly slow. We're approaching the halfway point of the month and I am still not finished with my first scene. Dating scenes in general usually take up more time than they should due to me wanting to make them as intricate as possible. I really, really hope that I'll be able to have something of quality for the next update, though, it's quickly feeling like we're going to have a two-scene update.
I also noticed that Azula won a very tight poll for the dating scene. However, due to the fact that I needed to start work immediately, I started progress already on Celestia since she was winning at the time and I needed to start the scene immediately. Rest assured, we'll be seeing a lot more of Azula (her story ties well with Altina) in the future.
Finally, I really must apologize. I do feel burnt out. I don't know why, but I just don't feel like myself. Maybe I'm just starting to feel lonely since I don't go outside anymore. I do feel like if there was a person with me, I'd be a lot mentally better. Though, I just don't have the money to go out and find hobbies. I'm stuck in a "No work -> No money -> No going outside" type of loop. Haven't felt this since my early twenties. It doesn't help that I just returned home from minor surgery and will be feeling discomfort for about 1 or 2 weeks.
I think someday, I might fall behind in my goal of 1 update per month... Really hope that does not happen, but it does feel inevitable.
Stay safe people,
JYP
