I would cry if I wasn't sleep deprived. After working all weekend and a total of two hours of sleep this morning, Meltys Quest is pretty much feature completed. All the translations are done and inserted. The new game plus enemies are designed and implemented....
2017-10-16 17:14:48 +0000 UTC View PostToday I finished translating, editing and inserting nearly everything, from Skills to Items databases, to non sex scene related Events. There's still three events and the Scene Mode to translate and insert.
After that, I gotta do the new game plus enemies, and then figure out to implement achievements, disable F5, and get the game onto Stea...

2017-10-13 12:35:12 +0000 UTC View PostToday, I finished editing and inserting text for all the maps. Now it's onto the rest of the stuff. I also spent a vast majority of the day updating the demos. Please don't play the demo until I make a new post announcing the new update.
Today I edited and inserted a bunch of maps, I don't know what the total is now or how much I did total today but there is about 12 or so big maps left to go
Meltys Quest now has a Steam Store page up!

Today I edited and inserted 27 more maps, for a total of 57.
Also, the Steam store page for Meltys Quest is now up!

I'll make a public formal announcement tomorrow with more detail...
2017-10-11 02:55:26 +0000 UTC View PostToday and yesterday, I've edited and inserted a total of 30 maps.
AAAAAAAAAAAH, progress is going really slowly for the map text. A hurdle that popped up while doing this is that it turns out Sachinama has been adding new text here and there, which isn't a bad thing of course, but it means that it's a setback in terms of having more things ...
2017-10-10 00:52:34 +0000 UTC View PostToday I finish editing and inserting the rest of the sex scenes. Then I spent the rest of the day completing all the enemy encounters for the the first playthrough. It's not really balanced yet, and there's no new game plus+ special encounters in the game yet, but the japanese version at this moment is more or less complete.
Anyway, I'm goi...
2017-10-08 01:47:52 +0000 UTC View PostToday I turned beast mode on, and edited and inserted 23 sex scenes. I should be finished with the sex scenes tomorrow.
Did some more enemy encounters and balancing. I did a recount of the total number of sex scenes edited so far, and either I miscounted before or I did a lot today. Either way, the total is now up to 28.
Today I spent a majority of the day balancing the stats of various costumes, accessories, skills and first half of the enemies and bosses. The equipment screen is expanded a bit, and the work for all the costumes should be finished now. I also edited and inserted three sex scenes.
So I'm gonna start off with some bad news first. This is mostly for my $10 patrons who knew about my initial planned release date for Steam. Sorry guys but it looks like that is gonna be impossible no matter what. I knew Steam required a store page to be publicly visible two weeks in advance, but while it seems obvious now, I didn't know Steam need...
2017-10-04 02:16:13 +0000 UTC View PostMan, it's October! Anyway no translation report today, just a short progress report. Yesterday I think I edited and inserted four sex scenes. The rest of yesterday was spent on doing game balance. New skills, new game mechanics, setting stats for items etc.
And then today I spent most of the day talking with Sachinama, discussing the changes I ma...
2017-10-03 01:23:40 +0000 UTC View PostToday, I've finished translating everything Sachinama gave me so far. There's still some scenes to translate when he gives me a build with the remaining scenes. But until then, I'm going to begin the long road of editing and inserting everything into the game.
I'm going to start with all the sex scenes first. I've edited the six sex scenes ...

Made quite a bit of progress, translated some loose ends, etc etc.
After the translation is finished, I will still need to edit it and insert it into the game. There's also the pla...

Originally I was planning to get started on Side Story D today after finishing G, but Sachinama finished F today so I figure it's better to finish F off too.

Damn, so close to 100%ing Side Story G too. Tomorrow work will begin on the massive Side Story D. I'm so close now!!!

2017-09-24 01:21:31 +0000 UTC View PostToday I finished two short sex scenes. In terms of length, short sex scenes are about half the length of the other sex scenes.
In terms of translating, I'm at the final stretch now. The above side stories are basi...
2017-09-21 01:45:44 +0000 UTC View PostI noticed that I've been getting very irritable lately. And I think that irritation stems from the stress of feeling the crunch of time. There's bills to pay so I want to get the game out as soon as possible, but I also don't want to put out a half ass translation, or worse, a half ass product. It's a completely different feeling when the responsib...
2017-09-20 01:27:06 +0000 UTC View PostToday, I've finished a sex scene and made gotten 1/3 the way through the Goldol side story.
And I've also spent a lot of time thinking about design today. Currently, new game plus doesn't offer really any specific new challenges, and I want to change that. Expanding onto the Princess Mode difficulty setting, I plan to have Princess Mode mak...
2017-09-19 01:28:38 +0000 UTC View PostToday, I finished the sex scene from last night and a different sex scene. I'm now working on the GOLDOL side story, which is long, and long.
Did I mention long. Because by my count, its longest sex scene is twice as long as the longest sex scene in the demo, which is Gobbler's. But I eventually got through the last dungeon, so I'll get thr...
2017-09-18 01:25:22 +0000 UTC View PostToday, I finished translating all the completed endings so far. There's one ending remaining to translate but Sachinama hasn't finished finalizing it yet. Basically, at this point I'm mostly pushing up against content that is being written at the same time by Sachinama. There's some unique challenges with this type of stuff that you won't usually f...
2017-09-17 00:23:35 +0000 UTC View PostThe last dungeon is now translated! There's still a small part that is untranslated because it's related to the ending sequence, and I'll definitely need to go back to edit some stuff later, but for the most part - IT'S TRANSLATED!!
I already began translating one of the endings. I'll probably do a few endings first before swinging back to workin...
