Progress 31.10.2025

Talothral post Progress 31.10.2025 from patreon

Hello all!

Bleh, I’m getting my second cold this year, but it’s about time for it. Anyway. What’s up? Rendering is going, not much to say about it. I’m somewhere around 500 renders, minus fixes, so I’d say it is going alright. And obviously, there is still a lot to do. I wouldn’t be too surprised it is somew...

Hello all!

Ufff... interesting weekend. I’m not exactly where I want to be, simply because one scene took a bit too long to render. But it happens, and overall I’m happy with the progress despite the long render times... and some posing issues. Still, I’m around 300 renders... and a lot left. Although considering ...

Hello all!

Friday, and you know what that means! Yes! A progress post!

... Well, that was cheerful. Anyway, so what’s up? Rendering of the epilogue is underway. Shocking news there. And I’m exactly where I want to be with it, for now. But have to see how it goes, not really complex scenes yet to render, but st...

Hello all!

Variations... variations... variations. Bleh. So what's up? I'm still uploading 0.51.0, net is being slow on upload, but it is coming along. I have about... 9 GB to upload, then it is in the "minimum" release condition for my liking. But that will still unfortunately be a few hours, I think snail mail might f...

Hello all!

Rendering is done, coding is done, doing fixes and some post work on the renders and all those little things that crashes the VN. Although going to take a short break before I do the builds to reset my brain in case something is wrong... as usual.

Talothral post Progress 13.10.2025 from patreon

Hello all!

How is it going? I got the complex fight scene done, rest are easier, just need to build two sets. Luckily I think I know how to do them so shouldn't be too time consuming, famous last words and all. It's overall coming nicely, not entirely happy but I am where I should be, and somewhere around 450 renders. C...

Hello all!

Friday... It is amusing, I told a month or two ago that this update would take longer than normal. During 0.50.0 I was panicking because it wasn't planned to take so long. Now? I'm calm. I knew from the start it would take longer than usual, simply because set building will take a lot of time. If I had to gue...

Hello all!

Set building... feels like I've done nothing more than set building the past three days. Which is kind of accurate. But that being said, I'm about where I want to be. I still have about half the script, a bit more actually, to go through. Luckily, a lot of it is variants of the scenes, so I don't have to buil...

Hello all!

Ehh... it has been one of those days when you just should have turned off the alarm clock and gone back to sleep. Ah well. So what's up?

Rendering? It is in an okay state, not too bad, but not great either. I suppose I'm roughly where I should be, at least after I finish the scene I'm doing. So, not rea...

Hello all!

Yay, it's release day, and back to the usual schedule with it. Not so yay? So what's up?

Rendering 0.51.0 has started, shock there I know. And now, as a reminder, this one will take longer to make. Usually the script is between 20 and 25 pages; this one is 31. There are sections where I can reuse the re...

Hello all!

Progress post time! So what's up? Rendering is... eh. I'd say it is in an okay state considering I started rendering this update two days later than usual. Naturally, it will shift the rendering time a bit, but the complex scenes are done, and I actually started rendering the scene I wanted. Although slightly...

Hello all!

Remember when I said something about famous last words? Yeah... On the positive side though, I've made three weeks worth of renders in two weeks. So what's up?

Doing the final scene of 0.49.0. It's been... a lot. The exact render count at the time of writing this is 613 renders; it's probably somewhat h...

Hello all!

Okay, first things first regarding Android versions. They either work, or they don't. Currently, all the games I have work on the two devices I use for testing. I can't really debug them as is outside of my own debugging, especially when the error messages aren't useful at all. I'll try to fix and figure out ...

Hello all!

Blah... I knew this scene would be... problematic to do. But I still did it. Ah well. So what's up?

Rendering? I'm somewhere around 350 renders, give or take twenty or so, and about half way of the script. Technically, that's exactly where I should be since the original goal was 2 full weeks of developm...

Friday! So how are things?

Rendering. I'm not sure whether I am happy or annoyed with it. Render count-wise, I've done this week's quota. Relation to the script? Ehh.. I had to add a section, so not really? But that being said, if get the scene that I planned done today, it should be in decent shape... ...

Hello all!

Eh... What a start of the week, I found out that the script of 0.49.0 lost a section, so had to rewrite it so I'm slightly behind, and in other news this will be also one of the longer updates to render... Somehow I think I should have crammed one more update between now and the epilogue... meh. Not the first...

I'm tired... it's been a week. I'm coding the update as we speak, although about to take a short break to relax my brain.

The rendering of 0.48.0 is in decent shape. I'm about where I should be, although I forgot I wrote... three longer scenes for this update. One which is rather annoying to do. Well, have to see how that goes. But I would expect rendering to take a day or two longer than I want.

Hello all!

So what's up? Rendering of 0.48.0 has started. Yay... but I'm still writing 0.51.0... it's the finale, and some ideas that formed during the writing required that I check I can make them. But it is mostly written, just needs to add a certain section that was potentially discovered during the update. Or perhap...

Rendering is in a good state I have one scene left to render, but it is largeish. The update is a bit weird one, there aren't that many scenes, but the length is basically the same as any other update, so it will most likely will feel short. It will be a...
