Hello everyone! I wanted to update you on the progress of the bonus update.
Here's where we stand:

✅ Posing completed
✅ Renders
✅ Code

All that remains is to render the animations. Once these are done, I'll integrate them into the game and release the build.

To give you an idea of the work ahead:

  • One of the animations consists of 198 frames. Each frame takes about 30 minutes to render. Currently, I'm at frame 128 out of 198.
  • After this animation, there will be another one with the same 198 frames.
  • Following that, there are 3 shorter animations, each with 60 frames. I'm not sure about the rendering time for these, but given that they take place in a smaller room, I'm genuinely hoping it will be quicker.

I want to mention that if the rendering of the animations takes longer than anticipated, I might consider slightly reducing the quality settings to speed things up, while still ensuring the output is decent. This would aim to ensure the update gets out before the end of the month. Whenever I have some free time afterward, I will re-render the frames at top quality and update the build.

On a personal note, I'd love to release this update by August 25th. However, please understand that this isn't a definitive date. It's just a goal I'm setting for myself, but I cannot guarantee I'll be able to meet it. Your understanding and patience are highly appreciated.

Another significant update: in the next game version, I'll be using WebP format images instead of PNG. This might potentially introduce some bugs since I had to convert almost 6,000 images. However, the silver lining is that this conversion, while retaining image quality, saves us 1 GB on the build!

I'm working tirelessly to deliver the best content for you, and I want to express my gratitude for your support. Stay tuned for more updates!

With all my gratitude,

Lizzy <3
