MP Development Update #7 (Patreon)
Content
Hey everyone,
I've been mainly working on the new scenes for the 0.3 release since the previous development update and also further converting narrative to renpy. I also worked together with a UI designer, as renpy uses somewhat of a different UI than unity, so that's gonna be new.
I like the new design and it's not as flashy as it was in the previous releases. It won't take the attention from the renders, which is a plus in my opinion. Oh, and it's already completed so that's very nice :)
About new content: as I said before, this release is about porting the game to renpy and making sure everything is smooth and nicely playable, instead of a huge chunk of new content.
That being said, I'll have 14-18 new scenes in this release, some are small (like an extra massage level), some are medium sized.
New tutoring, massage and yoga events, and I'm also progressing the main storyline a little bit plus some of lead character's own stories as well.
There has been some questions about how the renpy engine will change things, or if it is going to interfere with the images or the animations.
And the answer is that porting to renpy will only affect things for the better compared to the previous releases. It won't affect image quality and/or animations at all.
I think I can finish all the images by Monday or Tuesday next week, then things will need to be set up (mostly have to adapt the navigation system to MP's needs, and set up some new functionality like the objectives system (so you'll know what to do in-game)). Then comes a bit of polishing.
I'll keep you posted.
And as always, thank you for your awesome support!
