Bimonthly Update, May 21, 2022
Hello My Friends
I’m starting to get back on track, but life keeps getting in the way. Events are going on that are taking up my time.
Yesterday I was moving along trying to get something done when I was reminded that I needed to get to work. Really cuts into the flow. I kind of forgot how to deal with actually having a job.
The good news is that I am making progress. Slow progress but progress nonetheless. My stress levels about our finances are lower than they were. Not gone, but lower.
Big Scene
From the beginning I had the idea for a scene I knew would take some work. Mostly due to the landscape. But I decided to wait until I needed it expecting, or at least hoping, that my skills would improve by the time I needed it. Mostly because I thought I could get it done quicker.
Well, I did create the landscape. Took some work, but I do believe I did it quicker than if I did it at the beginning of the project. I still need to create the scenes, but I believe the landscape is ready.
This scene will be in the next update. Hopefully it won’t be the only thing in the next update.
Tweaked Characters
Tweaked Mary Ann… yet again. (I can’t seem to help myself.)
Very Minor tweak for The Skipper.
I intend on taking another look at Ginger.
I attempt to limit my time on these tweaks. I spent a day on Mary Ann, and about an hour on The Skipper. So, if I look at Ginger, I will only spend a day on her. And as always, I compare the tweaks to the previous look to see if I actually improved things. But the changes are becoming more subtle.
Final Thoughts
My slowdown should only affect this release. It is taking a little more for me to get used to this new paradigm, but I am adjusting.
Next Update: June 4th
As always, enjoy life.

Bimonthly Update, April 16, 2022
Hello my friends
The idea of burnout was brought up in one of the comments by a supporter, which wasn’t too far from the truth.
I sat down to write, and just wasn’t feeling it. Admittedly I had a lot going on, but if I feel like this, it is a sign of potential burnout. So, I shifted focus. Being burned out one thing doesn’t mean you are burned out on all things, just that you might need a change of pace.
Instead, I focused on learning. I had 2 tools I wanted to learn in DAZ Studio, (3D posing software) but ended up learning 3.
I also spent time learning Blender (3D modeling software). This is the next logical step for me. (Unless I could afford Maya.) I don’t plan on using it real soon, but would like to in the future, and this prepares me for that.
Also slowing me down, and adding to my stress levels, is the fact that it is tax season and I was woefully behind. (I mentioned this before.) One of the problems is that I keep making it more complex, and keep putting it off. So, I have been scrambling to get the documents together, and put together notes that I need. Tuns out I owe a LOT more than expected.
Also applied for a job. Yes, just one, but I have a good reason to believe I’ll get it.
I’m done whining…Any Progress?
No.
Stressful 2 weeks, and nothing moving forward with the game during that time, at least in creating the actual game.
I did create a few expressions for the characters based on the expressions they had on the show. I try to use those scenes as a reference so I can get them to look as close to the show as possible. But I always modify based on the scene.
Honestly, I have probably been overdoing it with the number of images for the characters I have for the last update. I like to give them a little more personality, and really wanted even more but I held myself back.
Getting back to writing
Don’t be worried about me getting back to writing. As you can see from this post, I don’t seem to have much of a problem putting words to paper. (I even rewrote it, and still had to edit it down.)
I have much of the story planned out, and a bunch of ideas brainstormed that I can draw from. I have plans. I have plans within plans. Yes, I am the Kwisatz Haderach.
Wait, a Dune reference for a Gilligan’s Island Parody? (Great, now I’m thinking what happens if we merge the show and novels?)
Goal for the next game update – 25th of June
There needs to be more consistency with the updates, so I decided that I would put out a schedule of about every 3 months. Hopefully I can get that down further.
In the past I would keep going until I had whatever sections I created done, but now if the time is coming up, I will release the parts I have done.
Next update – 25th of June (Earliest release for my supporters.)
Public Release – 2nd of July
Final Thoughts… TLDR:
This is definitely a long update. Hopefully not too boring.
To sum up, nothing done on the game, other than creating expressions.
Focused on learning to improve my skills. I am happy with my progress.
Tax season sucks, and I need to be more organized.
Since I update of the first and third Saturday of the month, the next update will be posted on May 7th.
As always, enjoy life.

Bimonthly Update, April 2, 2022
Hello my friends
Yes Bimonthly. (Twice a month, not every two months.) I have been thinking that updating every week might be overkill. Although if people want me to keep up the weekly updates, I will.
My plan is to now update on the first and third Saturday of each month.
Sometimes my posts feel like I am just inching along, and by updating each week, I am just putting out too many updates. This week is a great example of that inching along, where I did work, and yet it looks like I got nothing done.
My motivation for doing the weekly updates was to let people know that I was in fact working on the next update, and wasn’t going anywhere, nor that I was abandoning ship. There are too many abandoned projects out there.
Reconverting webp
In the last update I converted most of my images to webp, mostly to shrink the size of the file people need to download, and the size taken up on your system. But apparently, I set the quality too low.
I work with 2 HD monitors, but they aren’t 4K. When I converted those images, they really didn’t look bad to me, but was informed that they were quite noticeable on 4K monitors. So, this week was spent re-encoding those images.
It could have gone a lot quicker, but I rename all the images in my visual novel, and that made it harder for me to find all the images. Plus, I could probably have turned this into a batch conversion, but I went through each image, and made sure it was the right one.
I also found a few things to fix, so I re-edited almost a couple dozen of the images so they blended in a little better. I believe most of those problems weren’t noticed by most people, but one person did notice it, so I went back and edited it.
That is something I hope to avoid, since I want to move forward, and fixing things I already did is kind of looking back.
I did get this finished. I was also slowed down because it’s tax season in our country, and I should have dealt with this stuff much earlier. But I have quite a complex situation, plus my organizational skills are atrocious. But that’s enough of that.
Final Thoughts
Because of all these fixes, my VN has improved this week, and yet I feel like nothing was accomplished. I am unhappy that I need to fix errors and mistakes. I expect things not to be perfect, and hope that I am constantly improving. But these mistakes are things that I should not have done, and should have caught earlier.
Next update is on the 16th of April.
As always, enjoy life.

Saturday Update, March 26, 2022
Hello my friends
As you know, I released an update to my visual novel (VN) last week.
I’m happy with the reception, though I would have liked more people to have experienced it. I know fewer people are familiar with the show today than in the past, especially with the growth of streaming, but it is still surprisingly popular today. More popular if like me, your parents were too cheap to get cable TV.
Progress:
I have about 1/6 of the story written, and placed into the visual novel… assuming it will be the same length the previous update was. That includes the code, and places for me to place the images. I actually had this part pre-written, so it was fairly quick to add in. I just needed to rewrite it in parts, clean it up for Ren’Py, and add in some code to make things work.
I have more pre-written storyline that will be included in the upcoming update, so that will help a little with speed.
I will need to write the connecting story lines, and sections. I have most of the story in my head, I just need to flesh it out.
I was informed that converting the images to webp had made the images fuzzy, at least to one person. I figured I should convert the images at a better quality. This should hopefully be only a couple days of work.
Changes Coming (TLDR below if you want to skip):
Yes, I’m still working on this VN, but there is the potential for delays.
Events have caused us to deplete our savings quicker than I had hoped. So, I am taking the horrible action of getting a part time job.
The reasons are medically related, and this caused a big reduction in our income.
When I started this journey, I knew it would be an uphill battle. I also knew that most people just never get to the point that creating VNs is enough to give them a living. But I had an “ace up my sleeve”. Actually a few.
Years of saving money gave us savings to draw upon. I also created a few alternative sources of income, that while not significant, still helped cut the amounts we were drawing from our savings.
The third was my wife. The person I called my “Sugar Mama”, since she was willing to support me. But now she isn’t able to work, so her income is less than half of what it was.
I do want to make it clear that this is not any sort of a “sob story”. I mean the gist of it is that I need to get a job, and it will result in a reduction in my productivity on this VN.
I do not have any issue with getting a job, I just have an issue with how this will affect the speed of my updates.
Plans and goals:
My goal was to get the next update out about 3 months after the last. That would be a month and a half quicker than the first update.
I decided to keep that goal, but making sure people are aware that I have a new impediment to working on this. But I am going to try to limit the part time job to 20 hours a week, including commuting.
Another potential drag on my time is that I may be working on improving those alternative sources of income. This will take much less time, but it will still take up some time.
Final Thoughts… TLDR
1/6 of the writing and coding is done.
I am both speeding up due to improved skill, and slowing down because I need a part time job.
I don’t want a job because I’m a lazy bum.
I believe I can still hit my goal of 3 months from the last update... I hope.
As always, enjoy life.
