#progress update
Alright, week 5.
Just to quickly note, last weeks wasn't posted as I decided to make progress updates one week early for Patreons. So this one is the one done last week, but updated this week. The new one (week 6) was posted on Patreon now.
Let's get the bad stuff out first. At this stage, the estimated goal I had for the update (10th of Feb) isn't achievable at the moment. As mentioned last week, I really am not keen on leaving anything non reworked, so with this I can safely say all is going to be reworked, at least everything that also had character design changes. Of course, that means adding scenes that weren't planned onto the "update" table. This honestly mostly affect the leftovers mentioned last week (Day 2 Short Alley pics, Day 2 Levy chase, Day 3 University scenes).
So what was done this week?
This week had some actual small story changes compared to initial Episode 1. They are still nothing major, but I had an idea how to introduce a character a bit earlier than she appeared before, and tied that up with something else for the future. Besides that, NightClub fixing is finally near it's end, with only Falazio/Simon/Bethany drinking scenes to be remade. Meaning, Koko's and all the entry images to the club have been done, and Serena scenes are also complete, as you can see by the posts here. Also another very short addition, related to the comments I had previously.
And where does that leave us? With still some work to be done in short. I will refrain myself for saying any dates till next Sunday, as I realized having very optimistic ones can be damaging on the quality if it makes you push more than what you are capable of. Considering this is a rework first and foremost, releasing images that aren't up to standard, what would be essentially the 2nd time (episode 1 and now ep 2.5) which sounds bizarre and unreasonable. As always, some new and old image comparisons. Till next week with hopefully more good news, K.
P.s. trying out a one week delay from patreons> public release to these weekly updates. Sounds like a good idea to have as a benefit for you supporting me.
