Dev Logs! (Patreon)

Good time of day, my dear friends!I hope everything is going great in your lives. I’m back with another dev log, I’ve started working on a new CS update! Yay…

So, this week I finished writing the first of the three exams and smoothly reached the scene with Lena. That’s where I paused for now, deciding to focus on renders. Once I make the first playable build, I’ll continue writing the story.

At the moment, we have about 9k words, which is roughly 30% of the final result. My goal is to finish the chapter either at the end of the third exam or somewhere at the beginning of it, I’ll see how things go depending on time.

Yesterday I was creating and porting maps from Unreal and Blender, so by evening I only managed to make around 20 renders, which isn’t much. On the other hand, new unique locations, yay!

Now to the main part. In this chapter, there will be a bit more information about the world, what these abilities are, how they work, and why everyone is striving to get into the academy. But that’s more of a background element. The main focus will be on the characters!

The emphasis will be on the main protagonist, developing his relationships with Rosa and Alice, and how they will overcome the challenges of the exams together.

I also want to touch on the details of his relationships with Lena and Beatrice, and explore where their attachment to the protagonist and their belief in him come from.

And of course, all of this will be seasoned with absurd humor, drama, brain-storming moments, and everything that comes with it.

There will also be improvements to the narrative, taking the latest Astreon update as the foundation.

Speaking of which, after the public release, I plan to run another Q&A, and I’d really appreciate hearing your opinions about it. If possible, I’d be grateful for any feedback, it really helps me understand whether I’m moving in the right direction.

And now, some numbers:

Words: 9k / ~30k

Renders: 100 / ???

Estimated release time: March – April (if nothing unexpected happens with studies or work)

Ah, and the render quality has improved again! Right now I’m waiting for some PC component upgrades, which might allow me to improve both the quality and the rendering speed even further.That’s all for now.Hugs, and see you soon!Yours truly,NoGloryP.S. and some renders!
