Hi guys,
On Friday night I finally finished the writing phase, which took a lot longer than I expected. Lately, writing these episodes has become quite a demanding task, mainly because I keep rewriting and refining events until I’m fully satisfied with them. The good news is that it’s now done, and I can finally move on to renders and animations. I will still adjust the text while I make the renders here and there and I also need to send it to be proofread, but overall it's done.
Over the weekend, I had to take two days off due to a small health issue (nothing serious), but I needed the rest, so that's why I couldn't make the weekly report till now. Starting today, I’m back to work and focusing on the renders.
Now, I know many of you are wondering about the release. Given that there are around 1,500 renders to complete, along with a significant number of animations, it’s important to understand the scale of the work. On a very good day, I can produce around 50 renders, which is a lot (you can ask anyone who knows a thing or two about making renders). Realistically, the average is closer to 35-40 renders per day, which means it will still take around 40 days just for the renders alone. After that, there’s testing and possibly some additional work on animations.
So, my current estimate is sometime in July. I wanted to let you know in advance, in case any of you decide to pause your pledge till then. I know this is longer than we would have liked, but some parts of the process simply can’t be rushed. I was really hoping the writing phase would take less time, but that’s how it turned out.
Anyway, I wish you all an amazing week.
Bests,Jason
Things are finally getting serious.
