What's better than a lightly clothed Easter Bunny? TWO lightly clothed Easter Bunnies, of course.
This week marks the four-year anniversary for the release of the first chapter of Leap of Faith and me diving head-first into this. I have learned a lot since then, upgraded my computers a bit, and some even forgave Stephan...

It's been a bit of an odd week.
I had to buy quite a few new 3D assets for some new scenes and decided to update Daz and my Nvidia drivers along with them. Turns out that was not a good idea, and the 'new and improved' Daz gave me quite a few problems. First, the new 3D scene I had bought would not render at all, and it...

Real-life interrupted development quite a bit this week. In short, I've been planning to make some improvements to the road on my property, which led to almost a year of my application going back and forth within the municipality. But last week, I finally got the 'go-ahead,' so this week, potential contractors have visited me...

As I mentioned last week, I had an idea of making a lewd roam, and that took most of this week to complete. The reason for this was that the animations were rather complicated compared to the normal 'in-out' stuff, as I wanted to give you as many options as possible.
End the end, that turned out to be 16 animations for ...

At this stage of development, most of my time is spent posing renders and sending them to the render queue.
Still, there are scenes I've planned out, but when I get to actually doing them, I get new ideas based on the environment, scenes preceding them, or any number of random things. So, what was supposed to be a 'norm...

The render marathon continues, and that's all I've been doing this week - posing and rendering. Everything has been going smoothly, and I've shattered my previous record of how much I've been able to output in a single week with 288 new story renders and 1,426 new frames of animation for this week alone. The total numbers for...

I have been working on visuals all week, and for now have a small render queue going. I've been rendering constantly all week, so the numbers are now at 248 story renders and 1,288 animated frames.
I really don't like how Daz Studio does lipstick. If you apply it normally by adding the lipstick that comes with the asset...

I didn't do this because anybody told me to, but because I felt it was a misunderstood feature and took focus away from the game and the story. In the same go, I simplified ways...

2 weeks until release, and still much to do.
Don't worry, though. I'm still on schedule, and the release date of January 26th is well within reach.
A rough rundown of what's on my list:
Hi everyone, and Happy New Year to you all.
I took a few days off during the holidays, but nothing major. Most of the days I did at least something on the game.
Work done.
Mostly, what I've done is work on the script, in-game events, new and improved UI elements, and so fort...

It's not so much a normal update this week, which can be summarized into me continuing the work in Renpy, doing Christmas customs, and a little something for you.
I assume most of you have played Leap of Faith and seen the Christmas bonus scene (which is now horribly dismantled because of no sound).
Originally, it...

I finally finished the 'hotel free-roam' this week, and I'm extremely happy with how it turned out.
One of the reasons it took so much work and time, is that I will re-use it in episode 4, and thus save some time when I get to that part. Because of this, I had to think ahead on most I did, so that later on I can start o...

Open post this time, due to the Promotion further down.
Another week of mostly scripting. I managed to output more than 4k lines of script and dialogue, so it's good progress.
Compared to episode 1, which was about 18k lines in total, I'm sure I'll surpass that by a whole lot.
Other than that, I rendered mor...

Just a quick update, as I've barely begun recovering from being sick for most of the week.
I had a fever on and off for a full week, but from Wednesday when it finally let go, I've been struggling with dizziness.
So I'm not completely recovered, but at least I'm at the point where I can sit down and do some work f...

Just dropping by with a very quick update this time.
As I was working on Wednesday, I could feel that something was brewing, and sure enough, it was. Decided to power through it, but by Thursday, it was game over, so I've been in bed since then.
Don't think it's covid, but I haven't been able to test yet (all my t...

2,372 frames of animation were done this week, and they are all for the cinematic I mentioned last Friday.
The positive is that having all the animations rendering meant my significant other could finally drag me out of the house and we could get the Christmas shopping out of the way. The negative is, well, having two c...

I got a question in the comments of last week's dev diary about the length of Episode 2, so I thought I'd give you a rundown about what to expect from the upcoming release.
