Happy Friday everyone,
This will be the last Dev Log for Chapter 5 simply because there won't be any more "real" progress to report next week.
I'm done with writing and coding, done with posing static renders and only 1 animation is left to set up.
The PC will be busy rendering the remaining images and animations ...
Last batch of preview renders for Chapter 5.
Enjoy :-)
Hey everyone,
another week gone, one week closer to the release of Chapter 5.
This week I finished the work on the the long scene with most of the remaining animations.
The animations still need to be rendered and will keep the PC busy for a while.
I also started work on the 2 short scenes. The first is...
Hey there,
I had this idea for another BTS to shorten the wait for Chapter 5 a bit.
DISCLAIMER FIRST:
The following text will contain slight spoilers for the background of my Elves.
Nothing important or story-relevant, but if you want to experience everything within the ga...
Hey everyone,
As I mentioned last week, this week's focus has been animations.
I got a good chunk of them done and a few more renders too. I'm not fully done with the current scene, but it's going well so far and I expect to finish work on this scene before the next Dev Log.
After that, it's two more shortish s...
2024-06-28 13:00:22 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
Friday again and time for another Dev Log.
The numbers this week are a bit lower than last week because I had to build my last minor test build.
That meant finding music for the scenes I created in the last weeks, doing post work (fixing stupid poke-throughs...) on roughly 400 renders, and putting...
Less preview renders this week due to lower numbers overall and it's getting harder to find previews that don't contain too much of a spoiler.
Because of this, expect the number of previews to be lower until the Chapter 5 release.
I don't want to spoil anything about the Chapter 5 finale.
Hey everyone,
I'll make this a quick one since there aren't any major catastrophes to complain about. Which is good... I think...
Work on the game went as planned which means I finished the render work on the scene from last week and started working on the next one.
The next scene is written and coded and I ...
2024-06-14 12:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone,
This week has been pretty... entertaining.
The usual workload at the start of the month combined with flooding on the weekend/start of the week.
Luckily we weren't really affected by the flooding (it stopped roughly 1m away from our house), it was still a day without work done on the game and no t...
Hey everyone,
Not really development-related but I want to make sure that people see this.
As of yesterday, June 6th 2024, I restricted access to my itch.io page so it doesn't show up for people who don't own the game (through

Happy Friday everyone,
business as usual this week. I'm chugging away from the remaining scenes, a national holiday, and lots of work.
Overall the progress is good, especially considering all the national holidays and family stuff in May.
I expected to be slower with the development than I was in the end.
W...

It's getting harder to find preview images without spoiling too much and not using the same kind of render over and over again...
2024-05-31 12:00:12 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
Another week went by and it's Friday again.
I expected this week to be a bit slower progress-wise because of, again, a national holiday this week.
I guess it was not (slow), but I let you guys be the judges for that.
The focus this week was on rendering the remaining images for the next test build...
Hey everyone,
this Dev Log is going to be a bit longer because there will be some news regarding the Steam release at the end.
To make sure everyone reads it: The Steam stuff is completely unrelated to the Patreon version!
This week has been pretty productive in general. No nasty surprises, no setbacks, and not...

Had a hard time finding 4 renders for this week.
Almost all renders this week show something I don't want to show in the previews.
That made the selection for this week pretty hard.
I hope they're not too boring :-)
Hey everyone,
another short week with little time to work on the game.
Although my progress is okay (to me at least) given the available time, it still sucks to see it going slower than the weeks before.
May is just full of holidays, family visits, and weekend trips which leave little time to work on the game and ...
I know I'm early and I know I can schedule posts.
But since I'll post the 2k version on Discord too (which I can't do on the 4th) and I don't want you guys to get it later, here is my May 4th render.
And since 99% will be doing Lightsaber stuff, I went with something different.
A small crossover between Star Wars ...
Hey everyone,
A bit earlier again since I'll be away later today until Sunday.
This week is a bit lower on the numbers because of our trip last weekend, a national holiday mid-week, and me spending some time creating my next test build.
The build includes the "shortcut path" with all renders and music.
After th...
Hey everyone,
a bit earlier today since I'll be away from home in the afternoon and tomorrow.
I've been posing static renders for most of this week to catch up with what is already written and coded.
I need to pose a few more renders until I'm done with the current scene... and that path through Chapter 5.
G...
2024-04-26 08:12:43 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
I had this idea this week, said why not, and decided to try something new.
A series of posts at irregular intervals about how the development goes outside the raw numbers that you can see in the weekly Dev Updates.
There won't be any new or important information (that will still be part of the Dev up...
Hey everyone,
time for the weekly update.
This week has been pretty productive overall although I had to deal with a few other topics like tax stuff (fun!).
I've been focusing on writing and posing static renders for most of the time and I guess that shows in the numbers.
I'll keep that update short becau...
2024-04-19 12:15:01 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
Ever since starting this Patreon page, I have been thinking about Patreon benefits.
Mostly because I didn't want to paywall my stuff initially (that went out of the window with Steam, though) but also because my time is pretty limited due to my job and the family.
But I always kinda felt I owe you g...
