Weekly progress report

Hello guys! Unlike last week this was a very productive week (until yesterday). So, the report is one day late because yesterday was the Mapuche new year so it wasn't a work day and I went hicking with friends. My plan was to trade Friday for Saturday in work terms but I overestimated my energy after walking for 6 hours trough the mountains.

I said it was a productive week! So, let's talk about progress. In TCoR we had huge developments in two fronts, first and the one you'll notice the most I got in contact with another artists since the guys that I worked with didn't answer my messages and long story short he'll start working on the first redesign next week and we might see the second version of Erica before the next report! For the other one that is important but it's not that flashy, I got focused on the game as a game. What that means? I intend to have a payable but unpolished version of the game by the end of the month, after having that skelleton I'll be able to force my friends to play the game for feedback, so v1 will be enjoyable at least. I decided to leave for later stuff as custom animations (hence the weird idle post you see) or adding the character portraits. Then when I have the nice looking stuff it will be just adding a layer of polish over some decen foundations. Working on Ren'Py has certainly warped my workflow, but now I got my head in a RPG mode!

Blonde girl is a placeholder Sofia and hoodie man if the placeholder MC, so you'll be seeing them in the screenshots a lot. Sofia is literally Sophie but the blonde is based on Kate.

For NBNL I planed to work today, but I'm beat! So I decided to work tomorrow on this week's side of the game. Again, I'm debating myself I shoulld work on Rose's sex scene or something else. If I'm not inspired in the morning I'll continue writing the scripts because that's a part of the game. Otherwise it would be a cg collection.

As an end note to the report, finding an artist for the game was a huge relief. The artist that I comisioned the art before left my message on seen and the other one haven't even loged in. When I talked to this new guy he seemed quite responsable which is kind of rare in freelance artists, aside from that he did seem interested in the proyect and asked me if he can post the redisign in his instagram. So, I really hope we can see the character portraits posted here next week.
