Early Access 0.1554.2: Zombie Storyline Progress & Sprite Upgrade
Added 2021-08-31 20:07:33 +0000 UTCHey, cakes!
Today we have the much-delayed second early access of the month, the result of several weeks of illness and general frustration. I really thought finishing the Zombie storyline would be a modest goal to accomplish this month and I'm really upset that I couldn't finish the job, I guess it can't be helped :(
Anyway, the script for "Zombie" has been completed but for the epilogue. I don't think the final scenes quite fit together, but after the state I've been in lately it's good to get something written down at least. I also added the sketches for the associated CG that was previewed last week. My artist of course is still recovering from covid, but the sketches at least are enough to show how this CG is ultimately going to be presented when it's completed.
Finally, this release sees the start of the new sprite assets being added across the game. Hiroko's and Sayori's original stories have now been updated with them, and I'll be updating the other story paths over time.
And that's your lot. Naturally I really hope we all have better fortunes going into the autumn. Next month I'll be finishing up the Zombie storyline (yes I will!) before looking into exploring one of the many unwritten story paths that lie elsewhere. I have an idea for what I want to do, but that's all I'll say right now~
Enjoy the new release, and I'll see you next time!
UPDATE: New version 0.1554.2 includes Spanish translation for the new script and amends one line to fix an inconsistency.
