SandStorm - Weekly Status 2022 #06
Added 2022-04-23 16:13:07 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
I hope you are all fine.
SandStorm is taking a bit longer than expected as I had some pretty busy weeks IRL. I also invested last weekend to learn some techniques with a new engine, to see if it could improve some aspects of my games in the future (SnowStorm and future games, not SandStorm. SandStorm will be finished with the same technique, it's not worth making a change now for that one). I'll let you know about this aspect in a dedicated post/poll later, once I have done more trials with it, with some examples of renders, the pros, and the cons.
Now back to the main topic... Update when?
Maddie's path is almost complete, and it's probably the most time-consuming one as the most detailed in the lore. It also has a dozen animations. This path will be playable for sure this month. It has 3 outcomes, more or less good. (A, D, M)
Then, there is the evil path which is half done and has 3 outcomes as well (B, D, E), seeing the progress, I'm not sure I'll be able to complete them in April as I initially planned. I'll see next weekend if I can manage to build a v0.9.6 directly otherwise it will be v0.9.3 followed by a v0.9.6, 1 or 2 weeks after.
As I got some ideas for the others endings (Rion & Nora), I've written some stuff already for them before I forget ^^. A few scenes are made for them, but probably don't expect to play their routes before June.
As it's getting close to the release, the teasers are getting a bit hotter as well ;).
Enjoy and take care!
