Proof of Life #278: That Cyanna scene is taking forever

Heya you beautiful and average-looking people, how is it going in this fine morning/afternoon/evening? How are you handling the heat? Personally, my fan has kind of become my shadow at this point, what's with living in an old, not well isolated building and everything.

But it's thanks to that fan friend of mine that I've been able to keep a good pace working on the game this past week without literally melting on the floor. That's the good news. The bad news, or good, depending on how you look at it, is that the new Cyanna scene (of which you can see a sneak peek of its start in the sceenshot above) isn't going to be as short as I originally wanted it. There's just too many characters, and if I want to give some screen time to all of them, with a proper progression and everything, it at least needs to be as long, if not longer than a normal scene.

So yeah, I've been working on it for almost a week (not exclusively, like 90% of the time while the rest was spent on the Steam version) but, it's not finished yet. Maybe 80% at this point. That's why I said it's bad news because it means I'm behind schedule for the new update. But I guess better work longer for a cleaner result, right?

You can also see the sheer amount of background soundtracks I have for this scene alone in the 2nd screenshot, and I'm not finished yet. Since RPGM only allows one background soundtrack and one music sountrack at all times, I have to cram every moan track for each character into one single background track and make a new one for every little variation (one character moaning louder or quieter), so that's also quite a lot of work. Anyway, it's a mess, but I'm seeing the end of it by now.

That's it for now. Not much to say besides "current scene hard to work on, me taking a lot of time to finish it". Sorry. I'll see you next Monday though. It'll definitely be done by then : )

Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful week!
