Progress Report
Added 2022-11-03 11:09:18 +0000 UTCGreetings, everyone!
I've been playing games all week! Hmm, that came out wrong. I've been playing game all week. One game. Yeah, that's more like it.
Long Live the Princess
I've spent most of my time this past week playing Long Live the Princess from the beginning, trying to approach it as if I was a regular player and reading every single line of dialogue in detail. I did this to give the game its final layer of polish and to identify any remaining issues that needed to be dealt with. I also needed to determine a reasonable number of days for the time limit.
As a result of all the work and testing I've done for this update, the changelog has grown to ridiculous proportions. It's well beyond anything we've seen for this game before. No part of the game seems to have been left untouched, but the changes are mainly concerned with small details. Most players aren't going to see massive changes from before when they get their hands on version 1.0.0, but that's polish for you.
Along with the testing, I also earned every single achievement I've added to the game and made sure to do this without cheating. These are going to be fun for players to try and figure out.
All in all, the game is now almost ready to go. I have one thing left to test (an overhaul of Primrose's romance progression), and then I will add the optional time limit. Once that is tested, the update will be more or less complete. It won't be long now.
Supermodel
I got into a groove while playing LLtP and didn't want to break the flow by jumping back and forth between that and Supermodel. As a result, there was little progress on Supermodel this week outside of some simple music work.
So, that's where we're at right now. Long Live the Princess is almost done, and I feel good about its current state. Practically every little nitpick I (and others) had with it has been resolved. I can't wait to put the update out there and finally celebrate that my first adult game has been completed.
Until next time!
