Corporate Development Memo (5/14/2023)

Hi everyone! 

I think I have finally closed the book on Episode 7, and this week I built out the basic shell (both tech and also some basic structure of how to split up Episode 8) and also completed a new introduction for the game.  I also tested the Episode 7 saves pretty extensively, so I think things are looking good.  

Episode 8 will have similar menus but likely some new images at the main menu, and some tweaks to the music perhaps...I also spent some time researching Steam a little, but I will do that when free time permits from normal metrics/goals for Episode 8.  I am getting some help on this I think anyway...

I also realized that just my music files are like 2GB so I might try and shrink the size down a bit without sacrificing quality.  (I know basically NOTHING about this but luckily my biggest slave's life work is music so might be ok here)

I will post this week polls for ideas for the monthly stuff.  I think it's Veronica/Dominique as dommes, and then the other one is Kane/Doc/Raven with Mia/Nurse Reyes under them.  I am looking forward to doing these a...LOT because I have missed them cranking out 7.

Also, I am attaching a walkthrough for Episode 7 here.  It's a version 1, so I won't quite pin it yet pending a few changes.  But once I feel ok with it, I will pin it with the other downloads in the pinned post.  I am terrible at this kind of writing, but I hope it's helpful! 

I am planning to formally start writing this week!  I have outlined a basic overall structure, and having a nice short break has really helped recharge me!

I will try and post some official Episode 8 teaser renders with the next weekly update but also focus on the poll ideas very soon!  I really hope everyone has or is enjoying Episode 7, and please have a great week all!
