Weekly Status report

Good afternoon,

It's again time to give you an update on my progress over the past week.

Monday I finally finished the scene for Mira/Frisha/Emily. I was missing some transition images and because of that I wasn't able to complete it on Friday as originally planned.
After that I've been working on several smaller and bigger things this week.
There have been problems with dialogues for Yasmine/Lyvia & Rick which got reported in the bugreport section. I have edited them and written alternative dialogue.
I've worked on a climbing sprite for the MC/Tia/Lyvia that will now be triggered when ever you climb a ladder/rope (The point that this was missing bothered me for a while now) you can probably guess why I added this now if you played the preview of Tia's quest. Wasn't as easy to implement as it might sound, after all I only want to change the sprite if the character is really climbing. means if person 1 is on the ladder but person 2 isn't then person 2 needs the normal animations, same goes for person 3 and so on.
Of coures I also worked on new animations for Tia/Katherin 4 so far. I plan to expand the latest scene in the coming update.
Currently I'm working on the implementation of the last map that I made last month that wasn't needed for the 0.5.2.5 update.

For the coming week I plan to work on the quest itself. Means I want to add interactions with the guards at the mountain. My current idea is to either do a stealth or brute force approach which the player can then choose between.

As for a release date: I'm currently planning to do the 0.5.3.0 release near the end of the month. Means if all goes well it will be release on the 27.01.
It's still a lot of work to do by then and I want to make this right, so this release date isn't set in stone. But you will definitly get a release before the month is over.

That's all for now, I'll continue a bit longer today, although since I already had my crunchtime this week I won't work till midnight again.

Before I forget: @Mayor, there is currently a pre vote running on discord to determine the next addition to the bonus scene poll. If you want to participate check the #bonus-scene-prevote channel. The next bonus scene poll will go live on the coming Monday here on patreon.

I wish you all a nice weekend!
