From dsp3000 on his upcoming game…<\/p>\n

Good news and bad news this week. I’ll start with the bad news…<\/em><\/p>\n

I’m going to have to miss my self imposed deadline and release date. I had hope\u00a0to release the game today but it isn’t quite finished.<\/em><\/p>\n

Despite putting in some very intensive production sessions over the past couple of\u00a0weeks it’s not quite there yet.<\/em><\/p>\n

The good news is that, barring a catastrophe, it will be released next Friday 8th\u00a0April.<\/em><\/p>\n

Depending on your perspective, the other good news is the reason for the delay.<\/em><\/p>\n

When planning out, this first installment (of what should become a five part saga),\u00a0was originally going to have between 700 and 800 images.<\/em><\/p>\n

Having now completed 963 images, and with just a handful left to create, this game\u00a0will again exceed 1000 images.\u00a0Along with writing, and coding the game, I probably average about 100 images per\u00a0week so this explains why it’s running late.<\/em><\/p>\n

You may ask yourselves why I don’t just stick to the original plan…?<\/em><\/p>\n

Well sometimes some scenes end up requiring a few more images and a few more pages\u00a0to properly tell the story. Getting the first part of this series right is really\u00a0important for the continuity of the project.<\/em><\/p>\n

An extra week also means I’ll be able to thoroughly test the game and iron out\u00a0any glitches.<\/em><\/p>\n

So… this week, here are a few more teaser images from the forthcoming and so very\u00a0nearly completed game.<\/em><\/p>\n
