Hey guys,

I've managed to get some time to sit down and plan out the remaining work and what our current trajectory looks like in terms of remaining content and the final release of the game.

Rather than type it all out I thought I'd create a set of images to help visualise what this will look like so people can get a good understanding of what's left and set realistic expectations. And seeing it all laid out likes this (and knowing what we already have in the game) this is looking to be a huge game! Which is very exciting!

I'll add some little additional notes too below. Keep in mind this is all purely content related it doesn't include other mechanics and system changes we want to add into the game. Also keep in mind this is in no way set in stone! Things can (and likely will) change, so keep that in mind!

2024

We are starting off next year by completing "phase 2". This is where all the Royal Court and city NPCs will reach their Total Corruption (currently only Mary & Marina are left) This will also updating character dialogues so they are reflective of being totally corrupted (only a few characters currently have this). We also want to add in "district based corruption" where certain events can raise the corruption level of that district unlocking scenes with the random NPCs who inhabit that district.

Moving on from that we are finishing off the Rival Party members with Noelle and Veilbane. Followed swiftly by some focus on some of the main story and major side quests (that tie into the multiple endings - Goblin city & Library). After that we are returning back to Royal Court one final time for some extra scenes and their "Fallen Outfits" which can be made & unlocked. 

On from there closing out the year we will be looking at introducing the 2 Queens progressions into the game (and they heavily tie into the main story & side quests for multiple endings). I know a lot of people are looking forward to these 2! And to close the year we'll be returning to the Rival party again starting with Drunah and Calypso. 

2025

2025 is where we begin to wrap things up, finishing off the Rival party and then moving on to finshing off all the main Side Quests that tie into the multiple endings and then implemeting the different endings themselves. And then bug fixing everything we possibly can for a Steam / Itch release in September! During this time we'll be announcing our next project and possibly thinking about maybe doing some additional DLC depending on what people would like to see. 

Questions?

What about animations?

Animations will keep continuing to be added in their current manner. Keep in mind the amount of animations we can commission in a month is completely dependent on our level of support! Once the game reaches its logical end point any remaining scenes will not be animated for the end game. However they might come later, depending on sales of the game. 

Voice acting?

As a minimum before the game completes I'd like to have each of the major characters (Royal Court, City NPCs, Rival Party & the Queens) have their own unique moan files. Unless support for the game gets to a crazy level, this will be the only voice acting added to the game. 

Where the threesome / group scenes at?

Out of all the remaining content they are the one thing that may not make into the final version of the game. While I'd like them to be there of course, it may not fit into the schedule and may have to come at a later date (maybe even as FreeLC or something similar.) I'm not saying they are definitely not happening right now, but they are the lowest in terms of priority. 

If you have any more questions please leave them in the comments below or drop them on discord! I'd love to hear your thoughts etc!
