Sunday Pics III - June 2024 (😲 HUGE SPOILER INSIDE! 😲) (Patreon)

The following post is multi-platform, and as I indicated yesterday, Steam users have been largely forgotten as I have concentrated more on Patreon and Subscribestar. So this post mainly focuses on them. Some pictures I've already posted here but others I haven't, so it's good to see the whole post... Especially the last pictures... 😈 😈 😈

Hello people! 👋 This will be a long post, so get your popcorn and get comfortable! 😎

First off, I need to extend my sincerest apologies for the radio silence over the past month here on Steam. If you've reached out via Steam messages or the forums and haven't heard back, or if you've sent me a friend invite that's gathered virtual dust, I'm truly sorry. I'm not inactive, far from it—I’m laser-focused on game development, and sadly that has left me with little to no time to respond. I appreciate your understanding and patience.

But today, I come bearing exciting news! 🤩

Season 2, Episode 1 is on the cusp of completion! I've taken your feedback to heart, especially concerning the pacing of Season 1's release. Unlike last time, where Episode 3 dropped on Steam and everyone was left waiting for what felt like eons for the entire season to be available, I’m shaking things up.

I'm thrilled to announce that Season 2 will debut as an "early access" title. Those who jump in early will get to experience each episode hot off the press as they are completed. It's a way to keep the adventure going without the lengthy intermissions!

In addition, many of you know that Innocence Or Money (IoM) is available across multiple platforms. There have been occasions when a release has hit another platform before Steam (no specifics mentioned to keep the peace with community guidelines hehe 😅), but that's changing. From now on, simultaneous releases are the new norm! Every platform will receive updates concurrently, same day, same hour. This way, I make sure no one is left out and everyone can dive into the IoM universe together, no matter the platform. 😍

This week I will be creating the Steam store page and I will also send the game for approval, the current status of Season 1 is the following:

--- GAME STATUS ---

IMAGES: 1.686 (100% Finished)

ANIMATIONS: 503!!! 🤩 (100% Finished)

I pushed myself to reach this number; now we have more cameras than Fred! 😎🎥

TEXT/STORY: 100% Finished

CODING: 95% Finished

TRANSLATIONS: 25% Finished

SOUNDS: 20% FInished

The game code has been modified from the core and episode 1 of the second season is a base on which I will be able to build and develop many new things and take the IoM world to a new level.

Let's go with some pics and information.

0) Main Menu of Season 2 Episode 1

1) 2 New languages will be added:

* Arabic

* Spanish (Latin America)

2) The music player will have some new functionality (This is an old pic, the final one is ready but it's a surprise, so I'm not showing it 😉)

3) The floors of the gym bathrooms were upgraded with anti-slip coatings (Please note only the new floor, there is nothing else to see in this picture...) 😁

4) The first episode of season 2 has the corruption/money route as its main focus; however, details of the innocence route have also been worked on, such as Jennifer wearing her first uniform in the cafeteria. (I don't think many will see this image in the game so I'm posting it here 😂)

5) Make sure you read the whole story and go through the quests, if you don't, you might miss a scene like this one that is already included in the game... (HUGE SPOILER COMING!!!)

6) Jen waking up! 😍

The first episode of season 2 has taken me many months of development, but I am satisfied with the content and it is in the final stretch, once Steam approves it I will inform you all to start the countdown to launch!I hope soon to be announcing the good news of the launch 🚀, I wish you all a great week and again I apologize for not answering the messages (dm / forum / invitations), I think I won't be able to answer them until the game is launched. Thanks to everyone! See ya! 👋
