Hallo~o everyone! Time for this week's update!
Summary
Finished up expressions for side characters
Finished Asher's expressions
Finished Daaz's expressions
Worked on one of the two sprites I need
Worked on more bonus scene stuff
Cleaned up the scoring through Chapter 6
Writing
I didn't do a whole lot of bonus scene stuff this week because I was mostly focused on writing but I did work on a little roadmapping for some characters.
Art
I worked on one of the two sprites I need for this chapter. He's mostly done. I just need to do expressions for him and then I'll just need to do the other one.
I've already coded the expressions for these two characters because I give everyone the same set of features so once I pop them into the game later on, they'll already be good to go.
Coding and Other Stuff
Again this was a mostly expression oriented week. I'm about 90% done with the expressions at this point so I should be able to finish up with 1-2 more days of coding them.
I also went through and double checked the scoring by adding it to my scoring spreadsheet. There were a couple of areas I needed to fix some of the status checks on things.
And I've also started making a list of new SFX needed since I haven't done that yet. I don't think there are that many. This is a very chill chapter where they are just hanging out on the ship doing stuff so I have most of the SFX I need.
I will need to go through and do those - probably after expressions are done.
And now for some li'l sneak peeks as a reward for everyone who actually reads all this.
This is a very chill chapter, as I've said. To start with....there is....
Lots of silly crew interactions....
Lots of silly crew banter and teasing....
But then....maybe....some DRAMA.
And actually meeting people who aren't a part of the crew!? You mean there's a whole galaxy of people out there too!?!?!?!?
(Noel's expressions aren't coded yet so he's a bit stone-faced through here. Rofl)
Upcoming Week
Finish expressions and maybe wrap up any smaller things that need to be done like the SFX so I can focus on the remaining big things like the flowchart, new sprites, and bonus scenes.
Yeah, things are progressing. Looking forward to moving past expressions to other things though.
Anyway, that's it for now. See you all next week!
