Project Plan: November (Patreon)

The usual monthly plan.

Week 1: Mostly the usual bugfixing, balancing, refactoring and generalizing a couple of hard-coded mechanics, especially with regard to setting up future dungeon areas. The next dungeon areas will be the Volcanic area that can be reached from Mountainreach. Luckily the creators of the tileset family I use have created a tileset for such areas, albei incomplete and needing some assembling. 

The other area that will be reachable in the future are underwater areas (By diving into the Central Lake in the Forest of Runes and another one will be reachable in the Nephlune Vault).

Though, it's really mostly just setting up the mechanics and effects, so expect some empty placeholder maps with a robo NPC informing you about them being WIP, ready to break your immersion :'D

Week 2: Just like last year after the completion of Chapter 1, I would like to use some time to update the general world state. John reacting to Paulina, the demon worshippers in Nephlune noticing that their leader died :'D, the merchants from the inn in Mountainreach reappaearing, and so on. That kind of stuff.

Week 3: In the third week, we will be focusing on corruption based content. In the real world I plan on working on the events related to the Bullying Storyline and also some more happiness drain mental changes, epecially Ugliness 2 drain. The rest of the week, I will be working on the lewd side. With the John Rising quest + the Masturbaton Is Not Enough mental change, all the necessary setup for the John Sex scene has been prepared. I will probably not get to the repeat version this month, so that will then be for next month.

Week 4: The last week will close out the update by doing some prep work on Verdaux. However, the city will be pretty empty and without content for now. Really just doing some more setup work here.

And that would already be the end of the month. Let's now have a look at the art side and also have a look at the commissioning plan into the nearer future.

With the Hermit events done, we have finally closed the gap between the unillustrated and illustrated scenes. The remaining scenes are the Sexy Times With George and the Bunny Suit Loving Magister scenes. This month we will be focusing on doing the George ones to close out the empty gap between them and Sexy Times With George 3. Over the next two month we will then cover the Bunny Suit Loving Magister scenes.

And then of course the John Sex this from this month will be on high priority next month. Finally, I plan to push on the Rose Seduced By Richard scenes in December so we can do the art commission for it in January.

For the other freelancers, regarding the UI we are mostly currently focusing on stabilizing/debugging/cleaning up the source code. Somewhen in November the work on the Batlle HUD rework will begin, let's see if we can deliver it in December. I also finally had some discussions with Absurdity for the next writing commision. We will be finally tackling the Rosemond storyline that deals with Aura getting a job to break up Albrecht and Nadia. I also had some initial discussions with our composer, but I am still trying to figure out a decent commissiong plan for which OSTs we can do within our budget.

Aaaaaand that's it for the plan of this month. At some point this month I will also be doing another update post for the longer-term plan.
