Is a avarage divided between the two games. So something closer to 400 SG renders per 10 days ? Also he must be fellling inspired with the new toy is hard to say if he will be producing as much in 3 months. Is really good numbers though, and if he makes smaller updates he can get them out more quickly and faster is better than bigger, it creates momentum.
Yeah it might be an average number between the 2 games, but like you said, if it is 350/400 renders each 10 days it's still a huge amount of renders, if he goes back to 3k renders per update we can have 3 updates per year with a good amount of renders.

Now I can belive in the 30 chapters for this game :KEK:

Well, the game is not just renders. It's great that rendering goes faster now than Ocean can prepare the scenes for the queue, but there's also coding to be done:
one line of code just for each render and animation, add dialog text lines, phone text messages, Aurora messages, variable import from season one, multiple choice menus, logic to follow different paths and choices, music for the scenes, now these collectibles (that means active button logic for each collectible scene), then the galleries: images, collectibles, achievements, animations, Nami's photoblog(?), scene replays... (Hopefully he learned by now how to create replays without duplicating game scene scripts), some things I haven't thought of...

Not to mention that there's going to be an actual coherent story in there, on those dialog lines, which no one but Ocean knows about how much is finished publishing-ready and how much he will re-think and re-write while coding it into Ren'Py.

It's a fucking mammoth job and a whole new (ball)game.

Nice devlog. I give it a gross/10.

And seriously whose cock do I need to suck to get a goddamn sick/vomit reaction emote?!?!?!?
Was wondering why you haven't commented on the recent devlog and thought you got tired of criticizing :ROFLMAO:.

I'll never get tired of criticizing. I saw it 15m after it got posted but huh...kinda started feeling a little nauseous right after so I had to take some time to recover. I'm a little better right now but I think I'm skipping dinner today...

Ocean changed even texture of Nia's nipples, same like he did with Leia's ones. Now they are much darker and looks less bumpy.

Old ones:

The old one had detail new one is just brown. Shit she is a redhead nipples should be more pinkish and if you wanted to change something sprinkle some freckles on those Titays.

While all of this is true and rendering is only a part of the whole, it is a huge part, and speed it means a overall faster update. About coding I was under the impression that Ocean had found one, by the logs I got the impression that the phone coder was doing the code for the whole episode and Ocean was focusing on render and writing, the more creative part.

Can't say im a fan of this change. No redhead is going to have nipples this dark. It just doesn't make sense. Redheads tend to have pale pinkish nipples, it has to do with different balance of melanin in their skin compared to other Caucasian people, its why natural redheads tend to be pale and have freckles. I guess she is not a natural redhead then. My immersion is ruined xd

Agree with the sentiment, old nipples were better. She's a redhead, so I was expecting pale pink nipples as this is genetics, this now looks out of place. I preferred her without the nipple piercings too, but at least that's a change I can understand better. Looking forward to the date with Nia though!

Really great to see productivity improve with the workstation, but I hope it will translate to frequent releases to make finishing the game more realistic, not just ever-growing render count per release. When I think of all the branching in the story, future updates late in the game are bound to be short for the player and long for the developer. :/
