Hello Rebels!

I'm happy to announce that the store page for Chapter 3 has been approved by Valve, and it is now visible to the public.
Feel free to check it out, and to put it to your wishlist.
Here's the link:
Rebels Chapter 3
Description will still change, especially the list of all the artists, and the number of CGs.
I have put the release date to February and will do my utmost to keep it this way.
I'm looking forward to it, and hope you are too. =)

As for the status: I'm pretty far already, there are just two scenes left. The problem is that these two scenes are a big chunk, and they consume a lot of time.

As always, here's what I have so far:
Updated NEW asset count for this chapter:
- BG: 12
- CG: 22
- Chara: 19
- Creature: 1
- Items: 6
- Maps: 3
- Music: 7
As so you can see, there are a lot of new assets, and I'm well on my way to surpass the number of CG's compared to last chapter.

Additionally, I let someone make an animated loop of one of my characters to see how well it goes, and whether it would even work with the engine. It took a lot of work from my end, but in the end, it functioned perfectly. I'm thinking about having all characters animated, but I'm not sure yet, because it is quite expensive with the number of characters that I have.

I have also made some investigation and made contact with people who could make Japanese voice acting for my VN. This is something I've always wanted. But I haven't decided on this either. Maybe I'll wait for the next Chapter.

Anyway, I'm happy with the progress in general, and I'm more and more pumped for the release.

Let me know what you think, and have a great rest of the week!

Hello Rebels!

I hope you are all in good health!
I'm here to bring some update on the progress!

Things have been a bit slow in the past few weeks, but I'm trying my best to keep it up.
Here is a rough indication of where I'm at:
I have to admit, that I've been struggling a bit with the two encircled scenes.
I hope I can progress more efficiently in the coming weeks.

Here's what I have so far:
Updated NEW asset count for this chapter:
- BG: 7
- CG: 14
- Chara: 15
- Creature: 1
- Items: 5
- Music: 6

There was mostly work done for CG's and for new characters.
By the way, I just realized that there are currently 46 unique characters in the story. That's quite amazing!

I'm also happy to announce that I was able to do a quick-fix that activates the Steam overlay for both chapter 1 and 2, meaning that screenshots can now be taken. Although, it only works with windows for now. I'll have to find a solution for mac in the future.
Special thanks to Elaine for pointing it out and testing it.

I'm curious to see if there will be new screenshots uploaded into the community section. =)

As always, feel free to leave a comment, and I wish you a great start into the week!
