Development Woes, Feedback Appreciated
🕑 Added 2021-08-15 17:13:57 +0000 UTCSo the delay for update v0.15 is gonna be a little longer than I originally thought. My other job has got me working 12-hour shifts in a building that's 90 minutes away from where I live for all of August, so pretty much the only time I'll be able to work on Taboo Titans is on weekends.
That leaves us with a decision to make. I've got a huge majority of the update done right now. The only work left to do is to finishing Raven's h-scene and then applying some final polishing touches. But right now, it's unlikely that I'll be able to finish all of that work until after the end of August.
I've also got another major change I want to make. So you guys know that, right now, time in the game works pretty much like Skyrim or Kingdom Come, where it's all tracked minute-by-minute. The problem is that time in those games doesn't really matter. There are very few occasions in those games where the time of day or the day of the week actually affects a quest. So I wanted to change the time system to be more like the Persona games, where the days are kind of divided into blocks and you spend a lot less time just standing in one spot and waiting around. That way, you'll spend a lot less time just going back to your room and killing time, and it will be a lot easier to guess where one of the girls can be found on a certain day or at a certain time.
So it comes down to this:
Option 1: I take the time to polish what I have right now and release it by the end of August.
Keep in mind that, if I spend time polishing the half-update, that's time that I won't be able to spend finishing Raven's h-scene. This update would just include Raven's Affection quests, without the time system changes or her h-scene.
Option 2: I continue working on the update and release all of the content at once in September. This will be a smoother, faster process for me and makes it more likely for you to get all of the update's content sooner. This means that Raven's Affection quests, the time system changes, and her h-scene would all come out at once.
Either way, I won't be turning back on monthly payments until I've put out Raven's h-scene so don't let that affect your vote. I'll close this poll on Friday (Aug 20th), so try to cast your vote before then. I'll work on polishing the scenes that I've already written until then so that, either way, I'll be ready to roll. Thanks guys!
