MNL Progress Report #100
Added 2024-10-07 02:28:39 +0000 UTCHey there, nudies! Happy 100 progress reports! Wild that I've been doing these for so long now! Hopefully, I'll be doing these for a long, long time even after this game is in your hands. Which excitedly, we just took a nice big step towards achieving!
As of this morning, we've finished implementing the opening cutscene! A nice two minute sprawl with multiple illustrations, transitions and 40+ lines of dialogue! The dialogue itself is even all polished up with nice little effects - bold, italics, even wiggles and shakes for emphasis!
It's all finished and implemented in game! I wish I could show you more, but I really think this is something best experienced in-game. Though when I saw it all in motion... man, I just about cried. I'm so, SO happy with this opening. I struggled over writing and re-writing this past year with all these iterations, always doubting myself every step of the way. But I finally found the direction I wanted to take it, and to see it all in motion like this just solidified to me that it was the right call. You're going to love Amber. I just know it.
Speaking of Amber, we also made a light adjustment to an animation we showed a while back!
She's grabbin' her booby now! Still not sure what that other hand is doing, though.
But Amber's not the only one getting some attention! We've also been polishing up that capybara we showed you a while back, too!
Little tufts of fur here and there, and is that a collar? Hmm, what does it mean...?
All right, that's all for today! Now that the opening is complete, it's time to finish up the gameplay tutorial! Hope to have more of that to show soon! See you next week!
