Development Update Chapter 1 Part 3 (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone, and good day to you,
Back from a vacation
I returned from my vacation full of energy. This vacation was very fit for my taste. A lot of hills and mountains with lush green trees, crystal-clear seas, antiques, and historic old cities. It helped me clear my mind and relax, and I am ready to move on to the next part as quickly as possible. Here are some photos I took there.
Game development progress
I continued to create renders for this last scene. I'm going well; I returned to full speed on June 3rd and managed to complete one private custom render and several game-related renders. I've purchased a new environment, and I'm working on finishing all the art. In the past two weeks, I had five full days to work on the art. It's like a typical one-week work, and I managed to complete 148 complex lighting renders. When I say complex, I mean 6-7 spotlights on one character instead of one big ghostlight. Every spotlight needs to move when you change the pose.
This part now has 1748 renders, surpassing the first part's amount already.
We are almost done with static visuals for this part. I am going to work my ass off next week and push myself as much as I can.
Great news - I managed to finish the 10th animation for this part. That means that I'll do it for the rest of next week and hopefully can push very hard to finish the animation within two weeks. While animations are rendering, the PC is busy. Still, I have already started editing scene 15 renders, fixing and post-editing, so I can use them in the code I started writing while the animations are rendering. Coming back to the renders I did months ago and remembering how much effort I put into them is really touching. I am excited!!! Assembling the pieces is the most fun part of it all.
Previews
Vice President, Infinity President, and DHMA Member tiers received a first look at the new steamy animation. Join one of those tiers to see a preview - here.
Special Art
There won't be a poll this month for the special art; Giovanna was the only one who wasn't picked so that she will get this month's special art render.
Visual status:
Static renders: 1748⬆️
Animations: 10⬆️
That's all for this week.
Thank you for reading and have a great weekend.
