Devlog 69 (Ha!)
Added 2023-11-27 05:07:50 +0000 UTCYo, how's it been going? Things have been going good for me, I've been in the process of moving houses for a couple months now and it's been a real pain in the ass, but things are mostly done now so I've finally got a bit of time to relax.
As for the update, I'm faced with the same problem I had last update. Do I make it one really long one? Or do I cut it in half and have it in two shorter, quicker released updates? Last update was the longest I'd ever done, I think on its own it made up almost %10 of the lines for the entire game, or something like that. The end of the Deryl arc is the only update close to its length I'm pretty sure. Don't know if I want this one to be a similar length one, and make it 0.98 as planned, or if I want to cut it and make it 0.975. There's a few stopping points I could end the update on if I wanted to, but I'll think on it some more before deciding. Feel free to give your opinions.
As for the actual progress on the update, it's good. I've written the script far enough that I could stop writing now and have enough for 0.975, I've been pumping that shit out at a great rate this time around. Art's getting there too, maybe %10 of the way.
So yeah, that's it for the devlog. H-scene poll will prob be next week.
See ya.

2023-12-05 13:00:32 +0000 UTCWell, in reality, I think you should decide if you want a long update or a short update based on your work flow, like, if you suddenly don't feel the long update you could switch your focus back to the short one, but if you're like on a roll and want to work more you could definitely go towards the funny big update

2023-12-05 06:11:15 +0000 UTCI think longer updates for big story arcs/ story beats is the way to go whereas shorter updates for slice of life and downtime arcs feels more natural I imagine. That’s my opinion.

2023-12-03 00:10:02 +0000 UTCI prefer shorter updates as it makes it easier to remember where the story was the last time I played.

2023-12-02 13:40:14 +0000 UTCId say make it shorter or follow your flow if you have inspiration. although faster updates means that it feels better Patreon wise.

2023-11-29 05:03:34 +0000 UTCThey always end on cliffhangers lol

2023-11-29 01:31:58 +0000 UTCI think shorter update, unless it ends on a cliffhanger

2023-11-28 18:12:44 +0000 UTCI greatly prefer longer updates as they actually give you enough to sink your teeth into. Also as others have said if you have a flow going then follow it as far as you can. Lastly, a longer update makes more sense where we are in the story than a short one.

2023-11-27 22:05:13 +0000 UTCDidn't you say that you regret splitting the 0.97 update into two parts during the 0.97 beta release? Also, I think if you do a shorter update, you will have an easier time doing a through proofreading and editing.

2023-11-27 18:57:50 +0000 UTCah, well I think if you don´t have any blockades and over all are in the flow right now, maybe it´s wise to keep going and develop till 0.98? Cause right now it felt smooth for you to write stuff and later on maybe your mind is occupied with other stuff. I recommend takeing the short period you feel inspired and make the best out of it. Before , well maybe you don´t feel like it.

2023-11-27 15:58:24 +0000 UTCThe longer update is more satisfying overall, with shorter updates being nice for those interim periods between major arcs. Good luck moving. There's genuinely no better feeling than finally getting all your shit settled in.

2023-11-27 12:06:24 +0000 UTCWhichever works best for you, just so long as the next cliffhanger doesn't occur in the middle of a damn battle.

2023-11-27 08:10:08 +0000 UTCI would prefer longer update, even in it takes more time to release

2023-11-27 07:57:42 +0000 UTCGlad to hear moving is going well, just moved myself and it can suck. I'm down for a longer update again, I love binging content.
Wolf
2023-11-27 06:22:08 +0000 UTCThe wait for the last update wasn't extreme and the quality and quantity of content made up for it. I'd say take the time to do it right.

2023-11-27 06:03:36 +0000 UTCSo long as we get another good cliffhanger, I'm fine with wherever you decide to stop. I don't mind waiting a bit longer for a larger update, though.

2023-11-27 05:27:51 +0000 UTCHope you have a good house moving, I can relate with myself also moving houses a few months ago. I think the decision to make it either one big update or two smaller updates should come from the question: Would the two smaller updates have enough content to be considered updates on their own merits? If so, do it. If not, stick to the longer update. I would rather have one big update with content than two smaller updates with nothing going on (and by that I mean not enough sex scenes cause I'm a horny mother fucker haha XD).

2023-11-27 05:15:38 +0000 UTCGlad to hear that our dear dev had a great time. As for the update length I suggest you to cut it in half so as to satiate the most impatient ones and for you to take it in a more easy and relaxed way. Either way, keep up the good work O Great One.

2023-11-27 05:13:02 +0000 UTCGod news to see you moving up in the world. Can't lie I do love the longer updates and I wouldn't mind waiting a bit longer
