Corporate Development Memo - On last scene!
Added 2023-03-26 12:49:15 +0000 UTCHi all!
I am now working on my last scene to render for the Test Version.
I am crossing over 3,800 renders, and I am very confident I am going to finish all renders this week.
However, I am always super transparent, and I am not sure I can edit everything well by the 31st. If that occurs, ANY current Patron right now that cannot afford to pledge in April can simply write me privately when the game releases in their current tier, and I will make sure you get a copy of the game. You can contact me either here or directly on Discord as well.
The editing process given the size is very, very, time consuming. I remember fondly now doing 0.1 with just 437 renders!
The Test Version has a few key points that are important to note:
The save system for the Final Version may be different because my intent is to "close" this game file for seven updates with a new season/episode system for 8 onwards. But I am trying to figure out the save issue for this version moving forward. But Episode 8 will kind of be a "new" game so hopefully a much smaller download to just add with loading saves from the "first" game set.
There will be three scenes added after the Test Version. They are not critical, but rather ones that give a bit more context. If people recall 0.6, I added two scenes from the Test Version to the Final Version.
The time between the Test Version and Final should be quick, but it will depend on what problems are uncovered after players try it. Since I can't know for sure if something will pop up, I'm not super comfortable giving a hard timeline. But, if everything was really close to perfect, I would expect a week tops, probably a bit less.
Anyway, been up all night on this, I really need to rest a bit, so please have a great week! It's getting pretty close, and personally I'm really glad I can see the light at the end of the tunnel now. As I also said before, Episode 8 - Part A will be limited to about 1,500 renders, possible 2000 so it will be split up for faster updates.
