Hey! Big fan, this has quickly become one of my favorites! I was wondering if you'd be able to share any sneak peeks on what the next update might contain, or any hints on when it might drop? No rush - just curious. Thanks for everything!
Hi there, thanks for coming by to say hello! It's been a while since I posted, so I'm happy to give you a bit to chew on until the next release.
0.7 is going great so far, tons of fun to develop. I'm quite happy with how the new events and the UI overhaul are both shaping up. We're looking at more than a month but less than two until the next update.
Render quality is a big personal focus for this update. I've been spending some time practicing batch processing in my photo editing software of choice and also studying up on lighting techniques in film. This has allowed me to produce more (and better looking images) faster. I'll include a before-and-after example of what the result of this "dressing up" process looks like post render.
I'll save the whole unifying theme idea behind v0.7 for the release's devlog. Suffice to say these updates are always kind of a smattering of ideas, anyways. But in this case my top priority was to lay the groundwork for what is to come in the v0.8 release. Savvy players may be able to read between the lines of content included 0.7 to see what I mean by that. I'll also include the thumbnail I plan to use for the next update to give you some sort of clue as to where this is headed.
Hopefully this is enough to assure you and anyone else reading that I'm still very much involved with the development of this project.
