Episode 10 Update - 12/23/20 (Patreon)

Hello all and happy holidays.  I just wanted to give a quick update before the year ends.

We're in pretty good shape for now, although I wish it were a little further along.  "C" is way more developed now than it was before.  It still needs a bit of work, but it's looking pretty good.  One of my animators has made a lot of good progress on his section of "F".  I've already corrected a draft of it, and I suspect that the final draft to be completed soon.  Similarly, one of my asset modelers has been hard at work on the assets I've commissioned of him and should be delivering soon.  F, though, still needs a good amount of work on it.  If I really had to, I could probably rush-finish every section but F, which still has a couple of major swaths of missing work.

I've also begun scoring the episode and have been working at length with two different composers for the past two weeks.  They are really upping the ante for this episode, and the original score this time around is something else entirely.

Unfortunately, a lot of my Christmas/familial duties in the past week have interfered with what is usually complete concentration on the episode.  But we're still in pretty good shape. I genuinely believe if I can attack the episode this January with full concentration, I can finish up the character animation.  The only thing I'm truly worried about is "F".

Once again, thank you all for your continued Patronage.  As disappointed as I am that I wasn't able to release the episode this year, I don't know if I'd be able to afford all the people I've hired this time around if it weren't for the extra time and pledges from all of you.  So thank you.  

I want to wish you all a very happy holiday season.  Please stay safe in these trying times, and if no one else has told you how much you're appreciated, know that I sincerely do.  Thank you.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
