Dev Update #298
Posing is still ongoing. I reached shot #121.
I have lost a lot of time because of a stupid mistake. I loaded an asset (Jack's shorts) with the wrong shaders (rsl instead of mdl) and started posing with it. I didn't notice it until 30 shots later, when Jack's underwear started shining like oiled latex in a random preview. I couldn't see it before because reflections take time to resolve, and when I preview a shot, I usually don't give it enough time to properly render. As always, editing the shots took a tremendous amount of time, solely because of the excruciatingly long loading times that come with the multiple-character scenes. I wasted almost an afternoon on that, but Jack's pants finally ceased shining.
I also made a mistake when cutting the scene. Apparently, basic arithmetic is incredibly hard, to the point that I counted 20 shots more than I actually planned. The correct count is 226 shots planned for scene 32. However, I am considering adding a few more shots in some strategic places. I'll see when I'll get there.
No problems on the rendering front. Shot #82 has been rendered. We are progressing steadily.
The quick sum up :
- Day 6 Part 6 will contain 3 new scenes: scenes 30, 31, and 32.
- Day 6 Part 6 will contain 1 reworked scene: Day 2, scene 3.
- Day 6 scenes 30 and 31 are fully written, posed, rendered, and proofread. Post-processing and coding phase #2 are done.
- 18 746 words of new content so far.
- 3 331 lines of code so far.
- 561 shots are planned, 456 are posed, and 417 are rendered.
- 5 animations have been posed, and 2 more are planned. 330 / 330 frames rendered, 330 post-processed.
- I'm currently posing scene 32.

Quick question, I always see the development updates you post, but the game itself hasn't had a playable update in ages. Don't get me wrong, I know it takes a long time as a single person and everyone has their own style and release rhythm.
It would just be great to be able to keep playing, the game itself is good and it doesn't need to be finished or have a big update. I say that even though I know I'll probably have to pay for it again because I bought it at the old price.
Anyway, it would be nice to see an update with new content in the next few weeks or months.
Hey there. I think the last update to the game here on Itch was last November. Believe me, I would love to be able to release more often, but at the moment, it is impossible. It even got worse now that I'm trying to do some animations. If I can get back to working full time on Summer Scent, the development cycle might speed up a bit, but at the moment, it is impossible.
You shouldn't have to pay again.
