School of Lust v0.3.3 Final Progress Report (Patreon)

Hi everyone!

This will be the final progress report before the launch of the new version 0.3.3 update of School of Lust. We're aware and  sincerely apologize that it's been a while since our last progress report, but the version 0.3.3 update just wasn't at a state to merit a release, and we wanted to make sure we had a more accurate release date, before making any promises we can't keep.

This has been a difficult period for us, which we're relieved to be able to say goodbye to very soon, and get back to our regular update schedule. On top of the staff issue we mentioned in an earlier post, we've also spent way more development time on the game- and animation engine update than we planned to. Every single time we've done an internal play-test, we noticed a compatibility issue (with our many custom modifications) caused by the recent game engine update. It was a much bigger task than we had anticipated, but it had to be done eventually.

We hope the long wait will especially be worth for those of you who were having performance issues with earlier releases, but we believe the new scenes will be worthwhile as well. The game engine update also made the game run much smoother (higher fps) on our Android devices, so expect an Android release as well shortly after.

That said, we need at least a few extra days to (hopefully) finish the final animated scene, to do some final polish and to compile/upload the game for Windows & Mac. If we can't finish the last scene, we'll just release the update as is. A change-log will be posted right before the update releases (as we aren't sure yet if the final scene will be included).

The expected date of release for the Closed Alpha Testing is next week (18-24 March), and lower tier patrons will receive it shortly afterwards, depending on how many game-breaking bugs are found (but guaranteed within March as well).

As always, thank you so much for your patience and for your continued support during this difficult period.

Cheers =)
