v.0.13 - P2C1 Progress Report and Table of Contents

Finally, I've finished writing the whole update!

In the last report, I said it would be around 20,000 words and 1,600-1,700 renders. Once again, I've lied. It is around 22,000 words and I've already have passed the 2,000 renders mark (I have over 2,500 renders tagged). Yes, I rendered over 1,000 renders in a week, most ...

v.0.13 - Part 2 - Chapter 1 Progress Report

I haven't posted progress reports for days because I got stuck making the switch to Part 2 (thanks to RiamMar it's now solved) and the new coding and translation system is slower until I get used to it. Now everything finally seems to be working and this last week I've given the upgrade a good push. I have finally passed the ...

Testing of Part 2

I've been testing RiamMar's awesome work on My Dorm Part 2.
You can see some of the main screens screenshots above. It doesn't look like a standard Ren'Py interface anymore (it's beautiful) and it works perfectly (with some things to polish, but nothing game breaking).

Importing the saves from Part 1 works great, and...

v.0.13 Progress Report (II)

Another week and another progress report.

I already have 5 scenes written (and rewritten)! 

Practically all of them needed me to be in a dark place to give them the right tone, being the continuations of the last scenes of v.0.12. It took me a long time, but I'm finally past that phase of development. From he...

Diana

I left this sexy blacksmith abandoned for too long. Today I was in a mood to work on her a bit, and did a fast render.

I hope you like her.

She won't appear in My Dorm, she's a work in progress for something in a far away future.

v.0.13 Preview (I) - Kate and Progress report

What is so surprising for Kate early in the morning (yeah, the orange-ish tone is because sunrise)?

You should wait until v.0.13 to discover it. It's hard to make a preview for 0.13 without spoilering anything about 0.12 🤐

Progress Report for v.0.13

I will use this post to tell you how v.0.13 is going. ...

v.0.12 Release Schedule, and other news

You better not cry
You better not pout
Twelfth update is coming to town.

Now you can cry. There's a huge post coming too.

I am happy. Today I have finished absolutely all the work I can do on the update and all that's left is for the proofreaders to work their magic. They only have a 73-page document ahead o...

v.0.12 Progress Report (and IV)

Here I come with the latest (and last) progress report for v.0.12

Everything is finally written, translated, and posed/rendered (28 images are posed but should be rendered, they will be done while I sleep tonight).

Everything but the last two scenes have been tested and proofread by non-natives. Once the last two ...

v.0.12 Table of contents

As the update is almost ready, with only about 200-250 renders, some rewriting/translating, and the music/sound area to be done, I'm able to tell you what will happen in the update, or at least the scene names to not spoil too much:

• Lisa's nightmare
• Kim wakeup
• Debbie gets what you offered her in ...

v.0.12 Preview (IV) - A packet for the MC

The MC receives a packet in the afternoon with a Post-it on it that reads:

For (MC's name),
Hope it helps
A. & E.

Helps with what? 

Who are A. & E. (obvious answer for us the players)? 

Is that a teaser about the MC finally meeting (officially) Amanda and Eva?&n...

v.0.12 Preview (III) - Norah again? Yes

This update has a lot of Norah on it. 4 scenes where she shows up (in different states of "dressedness").

There's also a lot of (needed) hugs. 

I haven't dared to do too many handholding renders, they would have been too risque and perhaps they should go to the Hot preview area.

This update will advance...

v.0.12 Progress report (III)

Yesterday I didn't upload the progress report. It's been a 3-day weekend here in Barcelona, so I wanted to push the update as much as I could before writing it.

It has been a productive week, even with my two lost afternoons due to medical visits.

Scenes finished/Translation: 21% > 60% (9 scenes finished.)
W...

v.0.12 Preview (II) - Meemaw

You know that the characters have mentioned several times that the relationship between Meemaw and the MC is special. There's a lot of love there, but I haven't yet had time to show it on screen other than in small doses. In this update, Meemaw is going to take center stage. A lot of limelight for her. We will be able to see ...

Health issues

You know that I have had some minor health issues since I started My Dorm development, and I have tried not to let them affect publication times. I have never understood developers who use health problems as an excuse to delay. You should be writing and/or rendering if you're not dying!

This time the problem is less min...

v.0.12 Progress Report (II)

The second week of development is coming to an end, it's been 13 days since I started with v.0.12 and it seems to be going at a good pace.

I'm a control freak, I think you've already figured that out over the last year or so. 

When it came to Progress Reports I had a serious problem. I wanted to give the most...

Special Render (I) - Girls'n'Guns - Eva

With this render I start a series of 4K renders that won't appear in the game, to be published without any planned schedule. When I need to disconnect for a while from writing or rendering, I usually design characters for future updates. Since I already have designed all the characters I plan to use in My Dorm, last night I d...

I'm an idiot

I was so eager to solve the issues with the last compilation that I removed the script text files and the images for the next version (v.0.12), but not the compiled ones.

If you downloaded v.0.11B.1, you will arrive at this sentence:

"It seems like two months since you woke up."

Please, save the game there, ...

Links for v.0.11B.1

I have recompiled the game because some bugs had appeared.

* If you are not in Scarlett's path an error appeared.
* The game didn't save if you got Scarlett pregnant.
* The RiamMar mod had a couple of incorrect texts.

I have corrected 35 places where the default names appeared in previous updates (12 in Engl...

v.0.12 Progress Report (I)

It's the 4th day of development for v.0.12 and I'm already here with some news.

Since no bugs have been reported so far, I have been able to advance a lot in the update. So far I wrote three mini-scenes (189 renders/2,600 words combined) and render 155 of them. I consider them, combined, as v.0.12's first scene.

I...
