I know in our last post, I’ve mentioned that there was a possibility of finishing up the game at the end of the year.
...Weeeell that isn’t the case.
It’s not that we’ve been slacking, Twilight and I would consistently work on the game a couple of times per week, speaking with our coder (who has been a HUGE help) and adding in scripts.
I would be lying if I said we hadn’t gotten a lot done, which we did. We have dialogues for every week of the game properly spaced and coded. However since three of our bachelorettes are from other contributors, Twi and I have been playing the waiting game for them to send over what they have. Since the last update earlier this year, we’ve gotten a fair amount. However due to time constraints, busy work schedules, and some setbacks from Hurricane Irma, we haven’t gotten as much as we’d hoped.
We aren’t blaming them for anything though! We appreciate the time they take to work with us to get his game done. Obviously it’s not a quick as many other games because this is based on volunteer work and the fact that it’s an entire team instead of just one person.
With that being said, the game itself is around 70-75% done. With our newest coder we’ve been able to knock out core aspects that we were having trouble with before, so coding isn’t so much of an issue anymore. It’s mainly just waiting on the scripts and artwork from others.
So let’s move on to the actual game updates!
Thea is now known as Blair. We’ve opted to change her to her ghost form whilst interacting with Danny in his dreams.
A double feature. This is Adriana Santana, a new bachelorette and a third character of mine. Along with her is our normal choice menu, however we’ve updated it so that it is impossible to scroll back and choose another option. So choose your responses wisely.
Gwen McBride is another new bachelorette, both her and Adriana were last minute decisions after some of our original contributors opted out of the project. She belongs to Twilight!
Cassie Whitworth is a third new bachelorette into the game, belonging to Funkatronicdea.
Some bachelorettes will have a double scene with another. In this case, Misty and Gwen are friends so Danny will often find the two of them together. This also means you can either please or piss off both of them!
Other additions and changes:
We’ve removed the energy bar due to confliction with other codes.
A fourth new bachelorette, Maria Suarez, has been added to the game. Currently awaiting emotions from her owner.
Added a money and backpack system to allow purchases.
Added a gifting system along with those purchases.
More easter eggs and surprises!
That’s all for now and thank you guys for being patient!
