The last Dev Log which was two weeks ago stated that Ch4.5 Full was 70% completed.
That's a big fat no. This was posted yesterday.


Hello,

The log is a few days late, and I had hoped I'd not need to make another one but well... Here we are.
So, I'm not entirely done with the first part of the rework yet. (A big time consumer are the new college environments. Gladly, I only have to create them once.)

But a lot more has happened in the past 2 weeks.

1. I didn't talk much about it because it didn't directly impact development, but I had such a colossal headache last year with my old tax office. This is now solved. I managed to find a new tax accountant/office, which has experience with Patreon, etc.
(It might sound minor, but this was one of the biggest topics that kept me awake at night...) Finally, it's off my shoulders.

2. I re-rendered 338 renders for Chapter 3.5. I didn't actively work on them, I just changed a texture, and put them all in the queue... It took a lot of time to render them all... But it had to be done. I will give a more straightforward explanation of why I had to do this when the Full version is out.

3. I redid the fight with Sai & his friend in Chapter 3. The little cinematic is now gone and I replaced it with stills.

Regarding Chapter 5.

I will start with its development in a few days. (While redoing the Dreams Cinematic in Chapter 2. (The one with Bella on her car)).

I'm also completely recovered from the flu/covid.

2. Previews
In the new Chapter 2, there's now a new route... You don't need to replay the game for it. But I advise you to at least play through that part once. Just to see what happens so that you won't be surprised in the future.

I'll try my best to finish the full version asap. But even if it takes a little longer, Chapter 5 will enter development this week.
I'm so glad when all this rework stuff is over.

I don't see Ocean mentioning the progress of Ch4.5 Full anywhere in that post. (For eg, It is x% completed or There is just coding/polishing/beta-testing left or There's only x number of renders and animations left, etc)

All I see about the progress is:

And that tells nothing about the progress.

My primary point was that the last dev log wasn't 2 weeks ago as you claimed.

The primary difference between 4.5 Beta vs Full is the rework of 1st half of Chapter 2. Essentially 4.5 itself was complete with the beta release. The full release will not have any additional story progress, but will add the rework, plus any bugs and typo fixes of the beta.

You betrayed a fellow german by overlooking my Post from earlier. I herby challenge you to a Trail by Combat. Defeat me in a game of Mau-Mau or admit defeat.
I admit it was my fault and I will live with the s... wait what?

ps. I don't actually know how to play Mau-Mau.
I accept! Til death or first blood? :devilish:

Slug pace development again, see you again in August
Huh? What do you mean "Slug pace"? He's working on two projects with both quality and quantity first.
Second to mention, the beta version was out about 1 month ago. So do the math and tell me about pace.
AND third, I don't know about you guys but to even have Ocean's game on this site is a miracle. I mean like WTF Bruh, just think about it for a second. The story, the chemistry, the quality. Do you understand that There are lots of shitty games with shitty devs out there? In my opinion sure some dialogs are i don't know, fucked up or whatever, I don't care, or it doesn't bother me that much. But despite all of that, this game is a masterpiece.
If you can't wait for perfection, you don't deserve it and you don't have the right, to complain about the speed of reaching to perfection.
it's his job. Like literally his/her job to fucking pay for his/her rent, food and... So, if it's taking a lot of time and shit and you are like oh man, Ocean IS the one that is frustrated the most about it. Just wait for fuck's sake.

I cannot believe what I am reading. You want to treat Bella like some throwaway thot?
Next you will be suggesting Vic after she performs the starfish....what kind of monster are you?
just wanted to stir the metaphorical pot while I could ;) I don't even known which character I fully like lol Bella is all right but I still haven't made a number 1 favorite pick in this game.

I want my MC to be more successful at choking her out with the free weights bar
I understand the purpose of the threat but the way Nika does it has always felt a bit excessive for my taste, so thankfully MC knows how to apply the right amount of pressure and not too much.

1) It is possible to love them all, as do I. 2) Bella is just superior but Cheeto is a solid contender.
1) Possible sure. Still, doesn't mean anyone has to. I don't have to (and I won't!).
2) That's your opinion man...

My rationale:

MC is on the edge enough to grab a gun point it and pull the trigger. He either did it A. because of the harm done to Vic (a stranger) or B. the woman pointed it at him (but she did not pull the trigger)

So when Bella harms Nami, whom we KNOW the MC loves more than himself for years now, that same edge would easily lead to a very strong over-reaction while pressing the bar into her throat.

My particular MC with the choices I am making would probably have to have a 3rd party pull him off Bella.





Just saying
