Dev Diary, December 22nd, 2023
🕑 Added 2023-12-22 13:00:18 +0000 UTCIt's not so much a normal update this week, which can be summarized into me continuing the work in Renpy, doing Christmas customs, and a little something for you.
I assume most of you have played Leap of Faith and seen the Christmas bonus scene (which is now horribly dismantled because of no sound).
Originally, it was meant to be a part of one of the endings, although very different. I decided to scrap the idea because I didn't want any seasonal stuff as a part of the main story.
In short, like the Christmas bonus scene that's in the game, they were all going to prepare for Christmas - lots of presents, a tree, good food and all that. In the background is Cece, observing that they are all doing all kinds of things to prepare. It's a bit hectic. And suddenly, they notice that Cece's not there anymore. So they start looking for her.
In the end, they realize she's gone up on the roof, so they all go there and find her sitting on the edge of the roof. Of course, they don't have good experience with her sitting on the edge of tall things, so they cautiously approach her.
She explains to them that she found it much better to sit there, because things were so stressful down below, inside the house. So they all end up sitting down and just enjoying the moment.
And with that, I hope you all have a nice Christmas and have a moment to lower your shoulders and just relax. And for those of you who don't celebrate Christmas, have yourself a nice weekend.
I'll have a dev update pause next week but will be back on the first Friday of the new year.
Thank you once again for your support throughout the year. I hope you realize how much it means to me.
Cheers, everyone.

What he described was what he was planning when he was thinking about it being one of the end-game scenes.

The context of these words makes this shot so much more beautiful and even viscerally emotional, thank you for the treat.

it's not "in the game" per se. It's an extra bonus content scene that is in the main menu. it's really short but kinda nice. but as Drifty said no music and no name for your character either. there's also a scene with Nite Dawg in it!

Merry Christmas to you too, had me tearing up reading that. It's in the Bonus Scenes, except my version didn't have the roof scene.
