The editor finished the third chapter (there are five in total) and we&#8217;ll also be able to put a harem ending (which seems one of the most requested feature recently lol).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Script so far is around 90,000 words (probably final count will be close to 100k), thus the game won&#8217;t be as big as ToA: An Elven Marriage, also because in the end there won&#8217;t be any RPG part. However it has plenty of romances, cool scenes and some cameos. For example below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-624x327.png 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Myrth is hot as usual, but even our protagonist isn&#8217;t joking<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The events of this game take place before Loren&#8217;s events, and since in the story the nomads will need to travel to Grandtree, there&#8217;ll be Rei and Myrth cameos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I kept the story simple, with choices that changes the scenes, in particular if you unlock certain CGs or not, but if you play to get a romance you won&#8217;t need any guide. Instead if you want to maximize ALL the romances, get the harem ending, and also solve a little detective minigame (see below) then yes, will require more efforts!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1-1024x536.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1-1024x536.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1-768x402.png 768w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1-1536x804.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1-624x327.png 624w, https:\/\/www.winterwolves.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/immagine-1.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>During chapter 3 there&#8217;ll be a sort of detective minigame<\/em> (my apologies for the typo)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, I&#8217;m making this game so that the casual player will be able to see most of the content and get most of the achievements, with only a few things that will be more difficult (but not as difficult as to get some of the After Midnight endings, for example).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The game CG are also being finished as I&#8217;m writing this post, hopefully for the end of the months I&#8217;ll have them all. So, in summary:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>100k words long plot (estimate)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>male\/female protagonists<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4 romances + bonus harem ending<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>4 pin-up CG (love interest alone) + 4 love CG x 2 (male\/female protagonists) + 4 ending CG x 2 (male\/female protagonists) + 2 harem CG x 2 = 22 CGs in total!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>each of those 22 CGs will also have a censored version for those who don&#8217;t want to see any nudity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I think that&#8217;s not bad at all for a $15 game! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Estimate release<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that&#8217;s the big question. I think if I can keep working like this, despite everything, the game beta should be out around February, and the final game March\/April at the latest. With all happening lately, I&#8217;ve given up the possibility to have a combat\/RPG part (need to minimize the amount of time spent in front of the monitor), so that should speed things up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That&#8217;s all for now, towards the end of the month I&#8217;ll do my usual &#8220;end of year&#8221; post and give you my best wishes!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you follow me on social networks, you already know that recently I had some serious eye issues.
