Meet April! | Also: Render Gallery and Progress Bar [Dev Report]

Added 2024-05-23 10:47:09 +0000 UTC

Hi guys,

As you all know, I'm currently working on a game. It's not Hourglass Magic, but a big, story-driven adventure.

This time I'd like to introduce you to April - fiery girl with a kink for uncovering hidden truth.

I would also like to introduce you to the progress bar :)

As of today, I have spent significant amount of time writing the story and the background for both main and side cast. Gladly, the writing part of the story is done and complete!

I have also managed to create the first technical build. For now, there will be an image gallery with special renders that you could unlock over in-game events and actions.

Here is a preview of what could be unlocked in-game, featuring Charlie. Making characters' parts this large is actually quite complicated, but I'm learning :)

So, overall - my biggest problem now is making consistent high-quality character hair (I know you guys won't pay as much attention to hair, but I tend to believe that small details can either enhance or ruin the vibe).

As for the coding part: it currently consists of 2,851 lines of code (that also includes the in-game script), and I will dive deeper into its internals in the next week's update.

I'll spend the whole rest of this (and next) week rendering the visuals. Please don't expect too much on first release (especially with animations), but I will surely get better at making everything look good over the next releases.

I have also finished (ok ok I'm at 95%) the sound design. Every character will have their introductory music theme, I have used about 15 sound effects so far and will spend the polishing period tweaking and improving the rest.

Let me know what do you think on April! I'm open to suggestions and discussion about all characters.

And, as always, thank you so much for the support, I strongly appreciate it!

Love you guys,

WFO 💛
