Hi everybody.
Happy Friday! I hope you had a great week and are getting ready for a chill and enjoyable weekend. Here's a summary of our work since the last report:
Chestnut:
Chestnut divided her work between advancing the art of the hidden photos, finishing up the layered artwork for sex scenes, and doing cutscenes from Holly's second half.
Pistachio:
I spent a day testing the game (the part that I had worked on recently), finding issues that need to be fixed later on, and the remainder of my work time was dedicated to editing and posing of Holly's story's main dialogues.
The biggest issue I've found from this part of the content involves extra characters observing the events, similar to how the boners in 0.7 watched the MC and Gomira's fight with Kull, the boner king. In 0.8, we have an action sequence (far less elaborate than 0.7's, but still very important), and there are extra characters there, which I forgot to include properly, with the result that the event doesn't have the impact that we want. So, I'm going to return to these scenes later and do what I did with the boners in 0.7: every now and again 'cut' to the audience and show them reacting to what is happening.
Next week's plan:
Chestnut will continue working on cutscenes.
I want to finish the posing of the main dialogues, add completed artworks to the game (replacing placeholders), prepare a test build for Chestnut to play through the whole thing from the beginning, and then spend whatever time is left on sound and audio.
That's all.
Have a wonderful weekend!Cheers!
