Episode 15 Progress Update #3

Episode 15 Progress Update #3

It doesn't look like an August release is going to be likely. In the last update, I tried to pinpoint how much work I had to get done and could only estimate where I was at. Now that I've gotten some more renders done and know what I have left, I can see that I've got lots of work to do to have a complete episode. I've made progress with renders and I'm early in animations but I have to factor in all of the coding, writing, and putting it all together.

Some good news in all of this is that the episode is going be slightly longer than I'd anticipated, so there's going to be something for you to chew on in terms of sex and story.

I'm going to be trying some new things with this episode because I want it to be special for reasons you'll see when you get to play it. I'm not going to rush anything and I'm going to look at all of the different options I have when putting together the animations. This includes not just the renders but things like music, angles, lighting, etc. If nothing else, I want it to at least be satisfying.

For renders, there's just one scene I have to finish. This isn't counting re-renders or things like the stats, credits, and title screens. The bulk of the work in that department has been finished. It's mostly just animation work at this point, which I don't have a timetable because animations are always tricky.

I wondered what to show for a preview because I want you to experience everything in the game for the first time, especially when it comes to the more revealing scenes. Unfortunately, since this is a hyper-focused episode, I don't have much to show you that wouldn't give things away. However, I wanted to give you something so that you could at least see that I've got some work done and get your imagination going (one way or another).

There's about a week left in August. My plan is to finish the rest of these renders and get deep into animations. September will mostly be focused on putting the episode together and polishing it. That doesn't mean a September release is guaranteed and nothing is set in stone.

I don't ever give myself deadlines even though I probably should. I don't have any release dates because I'll probably miss them. I don't put any expectations out there because anticipation can sometimes result in disappointment. I've been busy with a lot of things however I won't use that as an excuse. I'm just going to steadily work on the episode as usual and when it's done, it's done.

If you want more specific updates, you can always message me to see where I'm at and I can talk more about what I'm doing. Other than that, you can assume I'm working on the episode as usual.

I've said many times before that this is a big and important episode. I can't wait to put it out and talk about it. I just don't know when that will be.

Since it's the end of the month, this is a reminder to end your subscription so you don't get charged for September if you were planning on it. Thanks for the support. If you decide to stick around in September, I'll do my best to show up with even more progress for Episode 15.

That's it for this update. If you have any questions, comments, or thoughts, send me a message. I appreciate you all. Take care and I'll see you soon with the August Special Renders.
