Hi guys,
How are you doing? I hope everybody is doing fine.

NO MORE MONEY

This week I have started to work on the renders and it's going quite well, I really think I don't have to cut out events from this episode to be able to release it by the end of the month.

Also this episode will have less animations, but like in the previous episodes I'm trying to improve my animations. In the first episodes an animation had around 12-30 different frames, while in this episode there are some animations with almost 300 different frames and the shortest ones are around 96 frames, so it was more complicated and the machine that is rendering those animations hasn't stopped since Monday and probably I'll turn it off after the release.

Also on the render side I'm trying to play more with the lighting and improve the quality of the render.

That being said I plan to pull a few all nighters this weekend to make big progress for this episode so that you'll have an interesting episode by the end of the month.

PARADOX

Since I write this text while waiting for my renders to get uploaded on a rendering server, because my machine is busy with the animations, I have finally started the text and to be honest I really like where this episode is going.

One thing I want to mention is that the main character in this game is no hero. He even says that, so don't expect him to be a good guy or even a likeable character at first, because of his background story, but that's not the end for him, you'll have the ability to shape his personality to your liking, but please be patient, character development takes time.

The release of this game is scheduled for March, initially I wanted to make an update every two months, but this month I was so busy that I couldn't do too much progress so we're moving this update to March.

Also thank you to those of you who are very understanding with me and keep telling me that nothing will happen if I don't do monthly updates for No More Money, but ever since I started the monthly updates, we have doubled the number of patrons, which means this thing works, so for that I'm grateful to all my patrons.

Best regards,
Jason
