Dev Update #225


Scene 27.

I finished writing scene 27, at least most of it.

  • Segment 4 is written. It was surprisingly difficult but it's done. and I'm honestly satisfied with it.
  • The situation on Segment 5 is different. That segment has two variants. I wrote both. I'm satisfied with the first one, less with the second one. The problem isn't what happens in the scene but how I wrote it. I'll probably have to come back to it to edit and rewrite some parts of it.
  • Segment 2 is still in the works, because of... reasons that are out of my control. 

So far, the whole scene is well below the 7000 words I expected with only 6600 words. And that means fewer shots to pose. I don't expect it to change much... but there still could be some surprises.

The plan is to take a day to review and eventually rewrite that unsatisfying variant in Segment 5 and then cut most of the scene for posing.

Speaking of posing, I worked on the assets I'll require to build the sets. I'll have to assemble every set myself through kit-bashing and retexturing. It should be easy except for Segment 3. The set for Segment 1 is ready. I started working on the set for Segment 2.

That scene was difficult to write. It's very different from what I wrote in the rest of the game and the scene itself will be different in terms of rhythm and overall realisation. I think I put more effort into that one than into Scene 26. And I'm kind of sad about it. I should treat every path and every ending the same way but ... well, I like drama. Scene 27 is drama, and Scene 26 isn't. I really hope you will like scene 27. That would mean a lot.

The quick sum up :

  • Day 6 Part 4 will contain 2 new scenes: scenes 26 and 27.
  • Day 6 Part 4 will contain 2 reworked scenes from Day 2, Scenes 1 and 10.
  • Day 2, Scene 1 and 10 have been rewritten, posed and rendered. 
  • Day 6, Scene 26 has been written, posed and rendered
  • 9549 words of reworked content, and 11 894 words of new content so far.
  • 2007 lines of code so far.
  • 466 shots are planned, 466 are posed, and 466 are rendered.
  • I'm working on writing and building sets for scene 27.
