Progress Report 7/10/20
Added 2020-07-10 22:18:32 +0000 UTCIt's the single greatest day of all time, totally undisputed! It's Friday!! Here's what I got done this week:
- All CG is now fully complete!
- The foot now gets covered in purple grape juice over time. I plan to add a "clean feet mode" to disable this, but that depends on how much trouble it gives me.
- Hints now appear on unobtained CG photos in the gallery to help players find them.
- Important variables like the high score and unlocked CGs have been modified so that they cannot be changed by the players. This will be important for something I have planned later on. :)
- CG variants (which is part of the reason they took so long) now appear where they should in the gallery.
Finally something I can show off in picture form! Also, I think I may have entered a low level Super Saiyan mode this week -- I got a TON done! I actually had trouble not working this week -- I had to force myself to take a day off yesterday to keep in good mental health, and that was a weird (but very good) feeling! Either I got a random burst of motivation or my practice with discipline is starting to pay off big time. Either way, we're now much closer to the next update!
Speaking of which, I'll try to make the releases of future game updates a lot more frequent than this one. The main reason I don't release it right now is so that you guys get the full experience of the CG all at once; it would be kinda lackluster and anticlimactic otherwise. Plus they're not even fully implemented into the game yet. Once they are, I'll release the next update and then finish up the rest of what I have planned for the CG Update before moving on to the Upgrade Update.
Oh, and don't pay any mind to how pixelated the sprites look in the image above -- that's just how they look in Unity for some reason.
That's it for now. Here's hoping I can keep up the momentum! See you guys next Friday!
Comments
I'm gonna be honest, it took me waaaay longer than it should have to see what you did there, but I see it now. XD I should probably specify that the variants aren't anything too significant; they just help to tell a story with the CG. With that said, I'm quite happy with how their incorporation is turning out! I really appreciate all of your comments! Please keep them coming, and have a great week!
2020-07-15 22:20:58 +0000 UTCI'm just going to stop mentioning that I'm late to the party because it goes without saying at this point. Anyway, it's awesome to see that you were so fired up this past week! The big update draws nearer every week and I can't wait. The grape juice on the foot is a very nice touch and the clean feet mode is great feeture as well (see what I did there?). And variants!?! You mad man! I really can't wait to see the fruits of your labor. Very glad to hear that you forced yourself to take some breaks as well. Being super saiyan is great and all but it's very easy to burn out. You don't need me to tell you that though! Anyway, what can I say that I haven't already? I'm super excited for the big update reveal and I appreciate all your hard work. Until, next time Friday, my friend! Take care and stay safe

2020-07-13 04:07:37 +0000 UTCHey, no worries. Always better late than never! ^_^ "Burst coding" sounds really cool and I'm totally stealing it. XD You enjoy your weekend, too! (Or else...)
2020-07-12 21:30:18 +0000 UTCI saw the notification about your update, but was half asleep and totally forgot about it. xD So a little late, but here: Awesome news! \o/ I have to compiment you on your ambition to make everyone happy and wanting to deliver whole experience. :D And it is great, that you still have those passionate motivation moments. I usually call that burst coding, like burst damage in video games. Short, but getting a lot done in a short amount of time. x3 Anyway, looking forward to your awesome work! And even if it is a bit late, enjoy your weekend. xD

2020-07-12 03:59:33 +0000 UTCHey, it's comments like these that give me huge boosts in motivation, so if anything I should be thanking you! ^_^ You have a good weekend, too, and keep up the awesome work on YouTube!
2020-07-11 05:55:26 +0000 UTCOooo, this is great news! Thank you for your continued hard work on this game, I'm glad that you got a big burst of motivation to keep working on the next update, but also glad you're getting rest for your mental health too, hopefully you continue to do so even if you have to force yourself. I'm excited that the CG update is so close now, it'll be cool to see how far the game has come since the last time I played it, and how the CG's are implemented as well. Personally I think the "clean feet mode" is a neat idea for those who aren't that fond of purple juice covering her foot over time thing and would be nice to have for sure, but I highly doubt it would make or break the game if it isn't there. Keep up the good work and have a great weekend buddy :).
