Progress update 13

What a week... It was actually great work wise, hence why no bad irl talk in this one. A total of 295 renders in one week, and yesterday being the record in one day, a total of 85. Finally some speed, mostly as I was finally alone at home without anyone bothering me. This gives me hope for the future too, as in a year or so I am hoping to move out.
As you can see, the episode is finally reaching it's end. But a few important parts are left. So what is left?
First of all, I haven't touched/done the lewd scene yet. And yes, we will have one 😊
Making an animation is a completely new area for me which I never did nor tested, so I am learning from scratch. Naturally all the dialogue is written, I just have to make the last renders for it + the animation (or 2). Considering I will be trying stuff out, learning, maybe even bothering some people in dms (sry), I expect this to take a few day at least. I'll try to do the best I can, but definitely have lower expectations compared to some devs who are well into it. The only real thing I did test out is exporting video, which thanks to Cari's help, now works.
... Before his help I managed to make an infinite loop and my pc wanted to crash 😐
Secondly, scene gallery coding. After the first point is done, I'll need to implement it so you can view it again in the main menu. Considering how hard it was for me to do the gallery, this might prove challenging yet again 😅 But yea, nothing fancy, and it won't have any specialized menu like the gallery had. Maybe one day when I am smarter in coding I can make some changes to the UI, but not today.
And third, well... The rest! Which won't take much time. There is ~30% of the game to check and add transitions, add the last songs and music, proofreading which my new proofreader will do for me and making some simple icon for Fates Collide. Having that vanilla renpy is kinda boring, but if I am not happy with the result, we can change it in the future.
With that said, I won't give any dates just yet, as I learnt my lesson with the previous release. However, with the animation taking ~1 week at most, 1 week for coding/other tidbits... The beta will definitely be this month, at least that is clear. In the next progress report my goal is to try and give actual dates for release/tiers ^^
As always, thanks for patience, and stay safe!

P.s. Idk where to include, so I'll do it here. All non lewd renders are done, so atm a total of whopping 1800 ep3 renders (+185 remade for ep2).
