State of the Episode 5


Hello everyone, I hope you'all are having a blast during these hot summer days. I couldn't update the status of the project earlier since I was very busy with irl job. Let me tell you a little about myself; I'm a mechanical engineer, right after I started the project for episode 5, I got a job offer locally for neutral gas infrastructure. I accepted the job in mids of the May. In mean time I was already done preparing the 368th scene. I even rendered all the scenes upto scene 50. While episode 5 was close to the completion, I thought I'd easily finish it by sparing couple of hours everyday after irl work. Well, the first afew days worked out well but then my pc's power supply started to fail while taking renders. I replaced it a month ago or so and the gpu was becoming an issue this time... GPU Vram is 11GBs so it can't handle my high quality characters since every other new episode a new character is being introduced and I am so strict about the quality of my characters and environments.  My mentality has always been "QoQ; quality over quantitiy". 

Anyway, back to the present time; I'm free of the job contract since the work is over and couple of days ago, I got a new powerfull gpu with high Vram. Actually I just finished the stability tests of new gpu, everything looks good and healthy so far. 

I want to spare 2 weeks for myself and take a break before summer ends and have a holiday. After that, I'll be back on the project. Things will move faster once I get to working with the new setup. 

Shortly; you can expect to see the new release at the end of September.

Wish you all a good day and have some more fun before the summer ends!

See you soon!

Will you have to start from scratch or from saved Game looking forward to it Happy Holidays 

Episode 5 will be a stand alone episode.  Probably every episode will be a standalone episode now on since the size of the images are really high and so is the quality. Btw let's say you've got to start playing from scratch for instance, if you hold your ctrl key, you can skip to new episode in less than a minute :) You just have to eneable the skip option in preferences.  Thank you!
