🕑 Added 2023-12-18 14:40:00 +0000 UTCGood morning everyone.
Although I managed to rest the first week, the second I was struck by a very severe flu which forced me to stay in bed for several days.
I have used these last 2 weeks to rest, and reflect on the next steps to take and why not, I have also added accurate explanations of each asset, so as not to leave anything to chance.
You can find the other demonstration videos in the post below this one.
Also one very important thing:
Do you remember that some time ago I told you about the need to create animations in GIF format to allow the backgrounds to change based on the presence of day or night?
This would have resulted in a significant increase in the size of each animation by approximately 30%.
Well, I found a method to apply transparency also to videos in .webm format, which is the classic format for Renpy project videos.
It's a technical thing, but believe me it made the future of S&F a little easier!
But let's talk about the game now:
Having completed the scheme and above all having shown it to you caused a strange sensation in me.
I've been working on it every day for a year now, and suddenly finding myself stopped to reflect on all the other issues concerning a game has confused me.
There are many contents that I have to review each chapter previously released must be reviewed from different points of view, such as the size of the images (Considering the migration of the project to 1920 x 1080) and the revision of the animations (Considering that the new scheme requires several extremely severe variants that cannot be ignored).
I put myself in your shoes and think that if I had been a customer I would have given much more importance to the new contents than the old ones, so I rightly decided to pick up where we left off, namely chapter 6.
I have decided to start again with the revision of Serindra, the elf of the kiosk, so I will dedicate myself to re-adapting her mission to the new S&F, and her missing animations to reach the 6 planned animations and make the scheme work perfectly.
Furthermore, I would like to formalize the arrival of a new character who has waited too long to be introduced, and I would like to include her by adding a new choice option at the kiosk counter: "Take a table".
This way the next release will contain both something old to review and new.
Then we will subsequently move on to the clinic and all the other parts foreseen that were to make up the entire chapter 6.
Afterward, we may talk about future chapters and the revision of even older ones.
I take this opportunity to wish you all my most sincere Christmas wishes.
See you in 2 weeks for further updates.
Alek.
