Hello everyone!
It's time for our progress report, which I would love to be monthly, but I keep forgetting about.
Scene 38.
The work on v0.6.8 is progressing. I'm done posing and rendering scene 37, and scene 38 has been written. With almost 9k words, scene 38 should most likely be the biggest scene of this update. The posing of scene 38 should begin tomorrow.
Scene 38 is on the Of Love and Lust path. It's about Cassie joining Eve and Jack's little maledom adventure. I can tell you, the three of them are loving it.
UI Stuff.
For the last few days, I've been working on some UI improvements. I realized that most of the few negative reviews the game has received seemed to come from players who didn't find the content they were looking for, despite that content being very present in the game. They just played the wrong path, assumed that was all there was, and abandoned their playthrough frustrated. To correct that, I worked on a new version of the introduction screens (the first few black screens that are displayed at the start of the game).
The new screens will :
Show how many paths are available,
Display what kind of content you can expect for each path,
Give the player an opportunity to activate the lighthouse (the guided / walkthrough mode).
It ended up being trickier than I expected design-wise, but I think I managed to build something decent.
Let's hope it helps the players find their way.
Bonus.
On a side note, here is a little bonus render I shared on the networks about a week ago. Just in case you missed it.
