So as you may know I already finished the script and my co-writer Melody is editing it now. I maybe over exaggerated how bigger this update will be but after Melody is done with the editing I think we will have +4k words to the script that will make it have around 21k words.
I think the update will have from 800-1000 renders. I made 60 this week(because I finished the script on Tuesday). I do 20 renders per day so you can do the math when the update will go live.
This time I am changing how I work and I think it will help me make the update faster. I will do some things that can be done while my PC is rendering and I am talking mainly about post-production work. I don't want to repeat the mistakes that I made in 0.6 which were leaving all the post-work on the last day and I had to like rush all the work and some results were not so great.
As for Xmas special... There will be no Xmas special. I am now focusing on the main game. And I want to release it as fast as possible. Although there will be a Xmas scene in the Elite version of the game.
