Update

Hey guys.

I'm officially moving and flying out in 12 days so my stuffs all packed up. Working on the VN from my old laptop now so render output is pretty crappy (it's a 2060). I'm at around 600 renders right now and I'm gonna keep rendering but I forgot how slow it was on the laptop. I meant to pause the previous months payment but it just slipped my mind while dealing with the official s...

Weekly Update

Hi all,

 I finished writing the scenes for the next episode and have started with the renders. The last episode got a pretty good reaction so thank you all! Previews will start in the next post. I intentionally left out a free roam event in the previous episode because the free roam in the next one might be bigger than usual. I'll still keep it simple though. Thank you all again for ...

Episode 11

Hey everyone,

You can find the links for episode 11 above. The render count was somewhere near 900 but I ended up taking a few more days and adding two more scenes. I played through without them and something felt 'missing'. Felt like it needed another scene or two so wanted to fill in the gaps. Sorry about the delay. As always, thank you for supporting what I do even when it's been a st...

Links up in a few hours

Short post. I did a thing and added 60 more renders 🥲. Took a few days but I wanted those scenes in there. Bug testing done, sfx done, spell checks done. I’ll just do one more spell check since I’m prone to stupid errors then upload the links!

Links up in three days

Hey everyone. Been kinda mia for a while. Long story short. I had to start packing...again. Yes. Shit just hasn't worked out location wise and I've kind of reached my limit with trying to make it work here haha. Prices have gone higher and higher so i'm going to have to move back to my home country in around two months. Basically to where it all began. So I'm starting to pack all the stuff I wo...

Update

Hey guys. Had a bit of downtime for a few days because of some dumb stuff. Wont turn this into a dear diary moment. I'll post the update asap. Renders need to reach 800-900 and are on 700 right now so shouldn't take too long. Release date announcement will be up in a few days

Weekly Update

Hey all!

Faced some animation issues with the software(Daz) where it would render images just fine but crashed every time I tried rendering an animation. (If any of you use daz and have faced this, feel free to weigh in). Couldn't find a fix for a few days so I just rendered the frames on their own and put them together.

Anyway! I'm 100% done with the script and the coding. A...

Weekly Update

Hey everyone. Sorry the update is a few days late. I had a bunch of family events to go to over the holidays. Too sleepy right now to count the renders but it should be around 600. I've also done some animations for this episode so that was fun. I'll have an ETA on the release date in the next weekly update. Shouldn't be too far away since the progress has been pretty good this time. I'll be ce...

Merry Christmas! 🎄

Hey everyone. I wanted to post these on Christmas but I just found out I might not be home. I tried avoiding going out to celebrate at a family dinner (like I always do) as much as possible but it looks like I'll be going for this one. I worked on some Christmas renders I wanted to share with you guys.

Merry Christmas!

I hope all of you have a great holiday.

Weekly Update

Hey everyone!

We're currently at 200 renders right now. Things are looking good progress wise. I expected to finish more but eh, 200 isn't bad. I don't have a preview for you this week because the only ones I've rendered as of now are the ones from the same scene as the previous preview. I'm pretty sure no one would care so I might just share it in the next update along with the new one....

Weekly Update

edit: attaching the preview in this post.

Hey everyone!

I've finished writing the script for the next episode which means I've also started working on the renders after which, I'll work on the code. Pretty excited and motivated and will keep this up and give you guys more updates. Currently working on an animation. I feel like I haven't added one in forever. An...

Episode 10

Hey everyone. You'll find the pc and mac downloads for episode 10 in the attached link. I've also created the new discord server. I'm guessing all of you got auto added somehow. No idea how that works. If you haven't been added yet, you can click on the discord logo in the main menu and it'll bring you to the server.

If you find bugs / typos, please post them in the bugreports channel on ...

Links up in a few hours!

Just a quick update to tell you guys links will be up in a few hours. Decided to add 30 more renders. The code is already written for them. Just need to wait for them to render and I’ll post the links! Hope you guys like it.

Release date + New server info!

Hey everyone. I finished with the episode two days ago but couldn't test for bugs / add audio until today. I'll finish with all that by tomorrow (the 28th) and upload the episode on the 29th or latest by the 30th. I need to set up the new discord server before posting the link here so I'll get that done too. I suck at managing discord so I'll have to learn how to setup channels with correct per...

Release date | Happy Halloween! | Big changes

Hey everyone and Happy Halloween!

I personally haven't celebrated Halloween because it's never been a big thing wherever I've lived but I know its huge for a lot of you so I hope you enjoy yourselves.

I'm finishing up a few things before I can put the update out there and the next post will have the link. I won't give you an exact date yet because you and I both know that has never ...

Update!

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to let you all know I've been working on the next episode a lot and I aim to release it by the end of October. This is tentative so it could be off by a few days but I've made a good amount of progress so I'm confident.

Currently siting at 400 renders and I'm assuming I should hit the usual 800-1000 with some animations too. The discord server hasn't been ...

Episode 9 links!

Hey everyone.

Just got done doing all my tests looking for bugs etc and everything seems fine. I'm still having discord problems so I'm probably going to create a new server soon. I'm going to have to pack my
PC up as soon as I post this link so if you find bugs (there shouldn't be any), please give me a few days. I'm moving my things to the new place in literally 8 hours. It'll take ...

Release date! (Real one this time, I promise)

Hey everyone,

The links will be up in 3-4 days tops. After I got back from my work trip, I started working on finishing some code and then ended up creating 300 new renders that weren't part of the episode 9 plan so I had to code those too. The render count jumped from the original 800 to close to 1200.

I haven't posted about this because it's been chaotic here - I complete a year...

Release date up in a few days!

Hey everyone. This is going to be a short post to keep you guys updated.

I got back a little later than I thought I would but I continued working as soon as I could. Few more scenes left to render and then some coding and bug testing and I'll post the release date here.

Update

Hey everyone. I waited until the last minute to post this because I wanted to see if I could squeeze in the last bits but I couldn't. I'm done with 800 renders but free-roam event code and the music is still pending. I'll be unavailable for 8-9 days because of work and I leave in 6 hours. I tried to code as much as I could before I had to leave so I could post the update but I didn't make it in...

Visual representation of me trying to work at the office + work on the Swordbearer

Hey everyone,

Hope you're all doing well. I wish I had the energy to post more often and juggle work but I'll try harder. It's not as bad as I make it sound but I'm still getting used to the whole coming back from work and using my 'me time' to work on the game. I love working on it so...

Episode 8 links!

Hi everyone!

Here are the links to episode 8. There were some issues with the drive and it wasn't renewing my subscription so I had to make space to upload the files. It looks like it's working fine but let me know if there are any issues.

Random life update - So I haven't posted about it because I didn't want to bore you guys with stuff irrelevant to the game. I recently sta...

Release date!

Hey everyone,

Hope you're all having a good week. The workflow has been steady and the episode should be out by the end of the first week of May. I haven't counted renders for a while now so I'll post another update before the release with a few more details. It's 6 am here so I'm going to get some sleep. Been staying up at night and sleeping during the day this past month. Somehow works ...

Update

Hey everyone!

After 50 hours of training and spending around 3k USD, I finally got my drivers license here. (Yes it's that expensive).

Currently at 120 renders now and based on the script I have so far, I'm predicting about 800 total render count with some animations. There might be some extra bonus images this time because I didn't get to add them in the previous free roam so I wan...

Life/work update!

Hey everyone!

My fiancé just left last night so I'll start working on renders now. I spent this month working on ideas and the script because I wanted to spend as much time as I could with her. Our situation is complicated and we have to go through a lot of paperwork before I can move to where she is so we only get to meet once a year :/  I really wanted to work on renders too but t...

Episode 7

Hey everyone. Sorry the link got a little delayed. I've been pretty busy and will continue being busy this month with future planning and stuff. I won't bore you with the details.

The episode ended up with 940 renders instead of 1000 because I moved a big scene from this episode to the next one.  This is the same scene with combat animations. 

If you enc...

Release date

Hi everyone!

Before I get into the release date, I want to let you all know that I haven't been posting here and mostly only been on discord because my fiance surprised me with a visit and we're meeting after a long long time so of course I was very happy and just had to live life for a while. I didn't stop working on the game though and the new episode will be here on Patreon on ...
