Dev Update 01/08/2025

Hi guys,

Time for another dev log! (I'll post another one on Saturday).

I went back to work this week, so unfortunately my little holiday break is over...
I've been adjusting back to working full-time + developing Shadows of Ambition after work. It's a tough balance to strike and I've noticed my progress has slowed down a bit. I'm currently working on the big scene of the first part of the chapter. I'm currently at 1100 lines of code and I expect to be around 1600-1800 by the end of that scene. I should also be at around 60-80 renders at the end or more. Thankfully, I have a lot help from some amazing people in my team, who are working on two of the other complex scenes for this chapter. I personally need to do 2-3 more smaller scenes and 2 big complex ones. All in all, this will be a pretty big update and it has a good chance being bigger than chapter 3. I can't give an estimate on the release date of Chapter 4 yet, as we're still in the early day of the development, but things are progressing!

I want to give a massive shout-out to one of the members in my team, Symbiotic. He's been helping out quite a lot and is one of the reasons why Chapter 3 was so good. The image I posted above is produced completely by him. I'm excited for the future and I'm really lucky to have amazing people like him helping me out.

Feel free to join the discord to chat to us or to see sneak-peeks and fan-made images of the game.

-Closing Note: I'm aiming to have the first part of the chapter finished by the end of this weekend. Afterwards we'll work on the remaining two parts.

Thanks for all the support!
