๐ Dev Diary #March '23 ๐
🕑 Added 2023-03-09 18:05:21 +0000 UTCHey Crew! Time for one of my infrequent and rambling dev diaries! ๐
THAT WHICH HAS PASSED
It looks to me as though the last update went down well - at least judging from comments and the various stats on Patreon ๐ I'm glad, because even after all this time I get a little nervous with each release - spooked by that little voice of doom that lives in the back of all our heads and counsels despair ๐
It didn't help that I had to make a big change to the update about a week from release. It was supposed to end immediately after Reveille, with no First Watch mission slot and no lunch scene [with all the content from lunch at breakfast]. That felt really unbalanced in my early playthroughs, and I quickly had to switch it all round and make a new breakfast scene. It also totally screwed up my update schedule ๐
Enough of me complaining, though - it all worked out in the end, and the next update is already underway ๐
THAT WHICH IS YET TO COME
The next update will contain at least 3 Second Watch missions, and will be out before month's end. I'm currently developing the long-promised Holodeck levels with Anna and Cole, and making good progress on both ๐ค They'll be similar in length, content and tone to the ones with Sam and Fatima... although I did manage to squeeze a musical bit into one of them. Because I literally cannot control myself ๐
We also have a new guest dev mission dropping this month - containing 375 images and three levels ๐ฒ. That comes from the amazing Bakaplays - developer of ๐คCyberlinxxx - and will be the subject of my next post. I'm very excited about this ๐คฉ
On the Patreon side, stay tuned for more information, more teasers, and a planned PLI poll over the course of the month - and the update itself, natch ๐

Probably not - but Iโll keep you updated if I have time to make any other missions this month :)
Beleg
Will there be any new gay content besides holodeck Cole's program?

๐ Thanks Sebastian!

I would like to go on record as stating that your musical interludes are some of the highlights of the game. ... Although I acknowledge that this would be more impressive if there weren't so many other highlights of the game ... I can't remember if I missed playing an update - last time around Cole was dreaming - but there's a hell of a lot of content since then, I'm still playing with myself. Uh, because it's single-player, of course. Love these Dev Diaries, too. Partly for the content, but mostly for the masthead. (And the mastshaft, if I'm honest.)
