Weekly Update - Drama, Double Trouble & October Peril

"You hear that? Someone's knocking at the door! Who could it be? Is it Rin? Is she joining us after I invited her over? Come on, it's leg day for her as well, she needs the exercise."

The way things look right now, I will most probably cut it very very close to the September deadline for a new build of Don't Flex On Me Yumi-Chan!!! Perhaps I've spent too much time early in the month re-working those videos and other stuff, but I find myself crunching to meet that delivery date.

Today, I wrote the biggest drama-filled scene for the game so far, and I think it came out sweet and credible. Mind you, it's not world-changing drama or anything, but our protag and Yumi need to find common ground and define aspects of their relationship in a mature way, which does not come naturally to our poor protag-kun.

That said, the famous double assault CG scene still remains to be written. I was just getting to it when I had to stop working today. I'm confident to have it ready by Monday next week. As I said, cutting it close to the end of the month. All of the visual assets are ready to go, so it really is just a matter of writing it.

My plans for the October secret game might be in jeopardy. The artist I've commissioned will not be able to fulfill the orders I had lined up for them, unfortunately. That said, we are still in very good terms, the artist and I, and perhaps we'll collaborate again in the future. I would sure like to.

Which means that I had to scramble to find a new artist. I did find one, but the entire operation is delayed, which means it's not looking great for a build of the secret game in October. I might have to skip the tradition this year, it looks like.

I'm still determined to make the game, because I would love to publish at least one complete project on store fronts before the end of the year, so if the new artist sticks with me long enough, you'll eventually see where all that effort went. It's a cool little thing, and I hope you'll enjoy it whenever it comes out.

Consequently, I've been accelerating production on The Bodyguard Girl 2's next CG scene, as evidenced by this week's Heavy Weight Tier poll. If the secret game doesn't pan out, I'll at least try to give you guys some new Vivian stuff.

And that's it. Busy, busy week for us at home. We have repairs needed on our electrical network, which, if you know anything about old houses, is a scary (and potentially costly) prospect. But it shouldn't interfere too much with my work on Peach Punch projects.

Please look forward to a release next Monday. Until then, stay safe out there!
