0.12 Devlog #2


Hey, hey, hey! Another progress report coming in.
This'll be more of a short progress report. I don't have anything too fancy to show because most of the work has been towards writing and coding, the visuals will come later. I spent the majority of the past two weeks finishing the writing of that "IMPORTANT PLOT SCENE" I mentioned in the last devlog, and I think it ended up being a very cool scene for the game's tipping point. I won't be spoiling it yet, maybe once visuals start rolling out and I can show some of its sneak peeks.
Work now will be focused on making the visuals for this scene, and then writing the other ones. That, and further refining the planning for the events that'll make it into the update, which I'm still deciding on a few of them.

Another exciting thing I've been working on is:

Translations

Up until now, Academy: Live! was only available in English. I've finally found a good way to add translations to the game, which ended up proving to be way harder than it seemed at first, given how enormous the scripts are at this point (around 200k words in total). These new languages will be added as I continue working on the new update.
The new languages to be added are:
  • Brazilian Portuguese (100% finished. Just some edits needed)
  • Spanish (50%~ish finished)
I will be looking to include other languages as I continue working on the update, though I don't think they'll make the cut for this next version.

Alright! That's it for now. Hope you're all having an awesome time, and until the next one!
