Progress

Great progress this week. I've finished all of the solo scenes with the girls and the planned transition scenes. 153 story renders and 262 frames of animation were done. On paper there are only two scenes left to pose and render (unless I add something during testing).

I won't say anything about one of the scenes as I don't want to spoil it. But it's the biggest one in the episode and contains a fair amount of animations. I'm saving that one for last because it can be rendered as I catch up on the Ren'Py part. I expect that to be a few weeks of scripting alone.

The other scene is also quite significant in size. It's the morning scene with everyone after the party and deals with the aftermath of whatever shenanigans you did the night before. Don't worry; the revelations of what you might (or might not) have done won't cause you problems. They are meant to be revealed in a humorous way to make a boring morning scene a little more spicy and fun.

Patreon community chat

Just a slight mention that I've started using my Patreon community chat more actively, and it seems some of you have noticed already. The chat still appears to be somewhat crude (for instance, you have to click a message to get the option to reply to it), but going forward, I think it can be a much better way of interacting between yourselves and me and giving tips or ask/look for help concerning in-game issues.

The Leap of Faith translation project has been moved there and is available for anyone who wants to contribute. The international version of Leap of Faith is scheduled as a joint release with the Steam version of U4iA, which is still many months away. So, for anyone contributing, there's no immediate rush.

Have a nice weekend. If you're in the northern hemisphere, I hope you still have lovely summerly days to enjoy. Stay safe out there.
