[PROGRESS REPORT] A Return to Previous Form
🕑 Added 2025-03-22 10:44:15 +0000 UTCHey, all! Before I get started yapping, here's where we're at:
Been pretty much hard-focusing Jade and Senia this round, and I started going back to an old technique I was using when creating Season 1: Writing and Shooting at the same time. See, when Season 2 began, I started splitting everything into steps, as outlined by the progress bars above. But I remembered that some of my most enjoyable scenes had come from writing and shooting simultaneously, and... well, it worked. I got 3 scenes for Senia done in 2 days. Of course, I far overstayed on the one from yesterday, 2 hours past my bedtime, but I'll learn to moderate.
Eventually.
In other news, I've been told by several people there's an issue with the Senia DLC. It has something to do with the way the Updater label is being called to define her "maxquest" variable, and on suggestion from the community I'll be converting most of the previous conditions to "renpy.has_label" since that scans the contents of RPA files and removes the need for controlling variables. I've been told by several people that this method is better than renpy.loadable and renpy.exists in nearly every way.
Speaking of Senia, we're up to 15 total scenes with her, finally getting an H-scene in. That's a very slow pace compared to most girls. For example, Mouse and Galka both had H-scenes on their 4th scene, while Druthari, one of the slower paced girls, I'm aiming to give one around her 7th scene. I consider the 5th scene being an H-scene to be about average. And since each Side Story will be around 20 scenes, that means the tail end of Senia's story should be packed with H-scenes, which is pretty true to her personality. I think you'll all enjoy her story and how things evolve from her being a little hesitant to becoming a little obsessed with intimacy.
Anyways, that's it for now!
Supporters, I'll have a DLC update out soon. I'll need to pitch you a couple of extra files for the compatibility fix, so I'll include those as well.
