Hi again. I am back with a small status update and a new image gallery to try out! As noted in last month’s poll, people supposedly wanted image galleries; so I made one, as I said I would. It is linked up top, and it is comprised of all the old RTL story arc previews in chapter order for convenience. There are many options for this gallery thing I found, but the defaults seem pretty good so far; however, I will likely tweak it around a bit to see what I can do a bit later on. Depending on feedback I get regarding this new gallery and/or the usage/views it gets, I may add more/other galleries depending; though I am not totally sure what else would make for a good gallery other than the mini-set previews.
As for the status update, I have some new stuff done for the game; most of it relating to the middle/lower endings… the top one is not done yet. I am also still trying to work out how to render this last scene set properly due to the high number of figures… but I may just have to do it the hard way, which is just trial and error. I still can’t say for sure that it will get totally “done” before next month’s rewards go out; but it will be close. There is just so much I want to do with many aspects that I need to tone down or hold back on for balancing/time reasons. Even if I want to work on it for another month though, that should definitely be it; so this is close to the end either way. Once it is “done” I plan to send it to a few artist friends of mine to hopefully get some feedback; my patrons will also get it of course, but it will stay in the mid level tier for a couple more months while I hopefully make some adjustments/fixes from the feedback I get.
Anyway, I should be back in a week or so with something; in the mean time, please vote in the current polls if you haven’t yet and let me know how the new gallery thing looks/works. As per usual I get little to no feedback regarding anything… so it would be nice if that could change for once. (Otherwise I just have to guess whether or not people like it from pageviews, which doesn’t really work well.)
