Road to Conway Update 4
Middle of the month, so we're full steam ahead toward Update 4 of Conway! And while Update 3 was a bit of a minor one given the whole work-to-earn money thing, it meant that for Update 4 I was able to commit the whole month to it again.
So it will be a major addition once again! And a steamy one at that as the attached teaser might suggest. It still was a bit of a struggle that month and some art just took way too long and wasn't even finished in time, but what could you do. Sometimes the art gods just are cruel like that.
So what is to expect in the new update?
First off, we got the major choice and story continuation for day 2, basically like the Dinner choice on Day 1, unfortunately we only have one choice there for now, and that is to pay a visit to that painted dog! What was his name again? Num...Nom...Nomax I think? Weird name. Who'd call themselves that?
His Character artwork is also the first one that got the proper layered treatment. My coding knowledge before starting this game was quite literally 0 and Character artwork just had to get put into the game easily and quickly. So up until this point all of them were just entirely separate images. That of course works if you have a few different ones as we had so far, but as soon as you involve things like nude versions, blushing, this and that with all the different expressions then it just becomes an unmanagable task very quickly. So proper layering had to follow suit at some point and he is the first one of the bunch to receive that treatment.
That'll allow much more flexibility in the future and of course the other characters will all follow suit.
What else is new...how about...SOUND?! Yeah!
Yep! I was honestly a bit surprised by just how prevalent the requests for sound were honestly. I usually just turn them off myself since I always have my own playlists running anyway, but it's one of the points people ask about pretty frequently. So having some time right before needing to upload it I ended up dedicating that to answering those questions. For now the sound implementation is pretty basic. For the most part just the background ambiance plus a handful of sound effects. I didn't have much time for this, so for now that is all there is to it. But naturally as things progress it'll be expanded upon.
So yeah! I hope you are looking forward to it! The release will of course be the first of the month again, so a little bit of patience is still required.

I'm glad you added sound. I cant get immersed in the gay while listening to my metal music. :P
Its also hard to match the tone of a vn with music before I even play it.
Yeah absolutely fair! Just one of those things where I didn't really consider how others might play it.
Looking forward to dating Wolf, I like Dominant Tops.
Hah, yeah hopefully you'll enjoy what's planned for him!
Somehow (despite following you on FA and Twitter), I only found Conway yesterday :D
Impressive work so far with the writing (and the art goes without question!). Have you got a definite idea on romantic routes (as in how many choices and who they will be) or is it still evolving as time progresses? :)
Hah, plenty of things going on so I don't hold it against anyone missing out on some things here and there.
Yeah, it's mostly laid out with 6 main "dateable" characters, namely Sam, Julian, Wolf, Arthur, Rajeeyah, and Nomax. Though side characters may end up with some smaller, more casual scenes here and there, and of course it is just a case of feeling out how this project goes, how successful or not successful it'll be, how much work it'll turn out to be and all that jazz.
There are certainly some future timelines where a side character or two may get lifted up to potentially more major roles, but that's of course very theoretical at this stage.
