October Monthly Review
Added 2019-10-28 23:37:18 +0000 UTCHello Everybody and welcome to the monthly review, this month has had a few things going on so let's get down to it.
First things first Lilia patch 5 is out, another chunk of common events has been taken care of and some minor bug fixes, still have some things I need to work out due to limitations of the engine and the English language having longer text than Japanese. I am on the final chunk of Common events so after the next patch the story will finally be getting some work, I did this on purpose because common events is a boring slog that I really hate doing due to various reasons, one of which is repetition with minor changes(I don't think protagonist should need to reiterate they are getting banged in the butt 15 times but the devs did). I purposely chose the thing that takes me the longest usually since I know that once it's over I can pretty much sprint to the end of the game, Emiliana my first game took 4 months to complete because I saved the longest things for last, and I couldn't push myself to just work, so me making progress has shown that I can do it to myself.
Emiliana, the next project being updating the translation may have gotten some good news, I found my old files before the FFF update(The final fucking fix update), you can probably tell by my naming scheme that I was over it by that point, but anyway since I found my old files hidden away in one of my storage accounts I should be able to import them to make the entire thing not take 2 months. I'd like to move onto another game, and have actually been asked to make a translation for a few, though Emiliana comes first, actually second since Lilia comes first.
Art is hard, for someone who has never sat down and practiced, especially with a mouse since I don't like using my Wacom. I've been working on art for my own project, and I really suck at faces so I might leave the main protagonist without a face for a while. I've been crunching on Lilia for the past week so that I'd be closer to done so I can sit down for a few days and work on the project, so hopefully I can finish a demo by december, something short and shows it off.
November should be a more productive month, I suspect that I will likely be on the polishing phase by the end of the month, with any luck I will be working on Emiliana and Lilia will be finished.
I have been thinking about adding a few more tiers to patreon, a $10 and $25 tier, mainly so that everyone has their own option for support, don't have to spring for $50 when you want to support more than $5. Though honestly I want to hear peoples opinion on whether I should.
That's everything I can think of, go pick up Lilia's patch 5 on F95, I'll see you all next week. Comment below if you have any questions or feedback. Seeya
