Hello there!
So, how are things going? Me? Oh, yes...
From my side, I've started the big rush/crush, with six weeks off from my day job, so full time on GS!
So, yeah, it's going pretty well. I'm quite pleased with myself right now. I'm beginning to see the production potential with full-time work, and it's clearly not bad at all. In the end, I'm much more productive than when I was part-time (Yes, it sounds obvious when said like that, but not so much). Indeed, even in the evenings, I'm not tired (well, of course I am...) after a long day of working for someone else. So, I still have energy to take care of my child, and then go back to GS for 3 hours (or more!)
And what about GS specifically, any news? Well, since the last report... I've set up all the remaining "classic" scenes (6 in total) as well as a quite heavy scene, but with an animation that I'm very, very, very proud of! I sincerely hope you take the time to watch it, it lasts more than 40 seconds (I know, it's huge for an AVN, but honestly, I loved making it) and it only took me a day and a half to set up (well, and 4 days for rendering, but that's hidden time). Plus, just for it, the game has new music! Some might say it's a waste of time and money, but honestly, I think it really adds something extra for a character. I got some flak for the music choice for the Aurora scene in the country bar... So she was a bit upset... So now I think she'll be happy!
Okay, here's just a tiny piece of that!

For the rest, I'm very happy with how the other scenes I've set up turned out, one in particular, you'll see, it's... romantic ^^
And here are the numbers:
1150 renders and 300 more waiting to be rendered
9400 animation frames rendered, and 1000 more waiting to be rendered
4550 finished script lines
I still have to do one and a half naughty scenes (I'm currently setting up the first of this chapter) and two small action scenes. I also have some tweaks here and there, and to finish scripting the variables, the music, that sort of thing.
In short, we've never been closer to the next chapter, and anyway, I sincerely hope this report will be the last before release!
Thank you, and have a great day!
