Largest update yet with 476 new renders creating a new day in the game's story!
Important Note:
This update continues from the "The Manifest: Shadows over Manston Retold" framework, prior saves from just 'The Manifest' or 'Shadows over Manston' prior to the 'Retold' releases will not work with it.
Thank you for all your continued support, I hope you enjoy this update and please let me know any errors if they occur or feedback you have on the update.
I hope you are all well and have a Happy Halloween this weekend!
I'm very close to completing the latest update of The Manifest: Shadows Over Manston and it is going to end up likely in the 400 render mark, making it one of, if not the, biggest update I've done image-wise for the game. Whilst it has taken slightly longer than planned, I think it is worth it to complete the extra images and not just cut the day short and release it now.
I've still got two scenes to complete, and these will likely each take me a few days so I will set a release date for this update to be Saturday the 7th November at the latest. Should it be completed and finished beforehand it will release as soon as it is done.
Thank you for all the continued support! I'm nearly at the point now with supporter's I can ditch my part-time work and instead work on this alongside my studies which is incredible and entirely down to everybody supporting me, so thank you!
Look forward to uploading the update and hope you will all enjoy it, as always if you have any feedback please let me know.
Currently, I've completed 275 Renders for this update, previously I said I was expecting the update to be 200-300 renders long so it looks like it will end up bigger than planned as I still have about 100 or so to go.
This month's $10+ exclusive renders will be Halloween themed, and as I've noticed some characters are getting a vote or two consistently but not winning, I'll make a shot of every character who has received a vote on the previous three polls.
Thanks again to everybody that is supporting to me and I'll post again in a few days to give you a release date!
This month's update will be one for The Manifest: Shadows over Manston.
This update will focus primarily on the 'Submissive Fiancee' & 'Penelope' paths along with advancing the story, and will likely end up between 200-300 renders long.
As previously mentioned; this update and future updates will be labelled v.2, v.21, v.22 etc. so that you can differentiate between the old v.18 versions before the "Retold" reworks which are incompatible. The "Retold" name will discontinue going forwards as well as each update will be new content.
So far, I have completed 115 renders and am planning to release the update near the end of the month.
As part of the ongoing changes to the website (will be revealed soon) whilst this month's renders are ongoing, I've decided to make an Instagram for the games!
All the posts will follow their ToS, but occasionally as if there are any renders that don't make the games, along with some of the girl's in-game posts, they made end up there.
Just to let you all know that v.08 of Defending Lydia Collier will be released tomorrow!
I just have a small bit of editing and testing to complete which tends to be far more successful in the mornings rather than late at night, so as soon as that is complete the update will be out. Hopefully about mid-day but definitely before dinner time!
Just a quick update to let you know I'm about 30 renders away from completing Defending Lydia Collier, and then just need to do a bit of post work so will have the update out in the next few days (before the end of the month).
This update features significant advancement in the story, and also in both of the Ellie and Steph's relationships.
This update also adds a new animation to the mix, which by itself is 280 renders long, although unfortunately with animations the time spent rendering vs the animation time is very poor.
Let me know what you think regarding the animation as I feel it is significantly better quality than the looped two second one previously made for Steph, however it is still fairly short. Considering most scenes in the game are roughly 30-100 renders, at 280 for one animation if you'd rather just still images and more scenes then let me know, one the flip side if you want more animations, let me know that too!
After this update I'll make the September renders (make sure you've voted in the poll if you're a $10+ Subscriber!) and then begin work on the Shadows over Manston update for October.
Hope you're all well and thanks again for the continued support!
As I mentioned in the progress, this update focuses on the story-line and some Ellie content, other character's paths will be continued in future updates.
Defending Lydia Collier is entirely made at 1280x720p as originally this made it quicker to render. With this update the majority of the renders are rendered at either 2k or 4k and then downscaled to 1280p. This means they took significantly longer, however those that are downscaled should be a higher quality. Let me know if this is something I should continue, or revert to more renders but at 1280p.
I've also removed some renders from this update so that it ended at a more suitable story point, however these will be included with the next update.
I hope you enjoy the update and apologies again for the delay!
As many of you will know, a while back I set up and created whitephantomgames.co.uk as a place to host my games general releases and because well I wanted to create a website as it is something I'd never done before.
Several thousand people have visited it this year, up a few hundred percent on last year and I was wondering if there was anything new you'd like to see on there?
I'm not talking about anything currently on Subscribestar like change-logs, updates, download links, bug fixes etc, monthly polls and renders, that's what this site is for and nothing will be leaving here.
I'm more thinking of anything not currently available. For example character biographies, wallpapers, maps of the locations I've made up, things like that?
If there is anything new you'd like to see, it isn't going to affect development speeds because I can render and work on that at the same time, so don't worry about it slowing me down, but let me know!
So I've been working throughout the month and now I'm at the point that v.07 is nearly done.
This update will be roughly about 300 renders long and focuses on the game's story and some Ellie content and I should have it done in the next few days, I just need to do some coding, editing and a very more renders and it will be complete.
I'll set a release date of the 31st, but if it is done and tested beforehand I'll release it then.
Looking at the results of the poll across all the sites it ended up with the result that by a ratio of 2:1 people would like a Shadows over Manston update, so that is what I will do after the completion of v.08. August will be v.07, September will be v.08, and then October will be an update of Shadows over Manston. I think this will be a good idea for myself too as it is always good to work with different characters and environments and have some variety.
The next update will be Defending Lydia Collier v.07 which I am currently working on.
This update will be more linear than the previous update and will be about 300 renders long, however it won't be split in 3 different paths like Sunday was. This means whilst it is likely to be slightly smaller than v.07, it will have more content on a single playthrough.
This update will feature further storyline development considerably, along with progression with Ellie.
There are also some coding plans I'm going to try and look into, such as making the social media function work a bit better so rather than watching TV etc. you can instead check up on your favourite character and see what they are up to.
Thanks for all the continued support and hope you all enjoyed Defending Lydia Collier v.06.
Over 100 spelling and grammar changes from v.01 to v.06
A complete new day in the story, with 379 new renders added
Change log for v.06.1:
Fixed a bug where you could never kick Jenna out of your apartment
I hope you enjoy this update and please let me know any feedback, good or bad and if you encounter any errors so I can fix them. You can do this either here with a comment or at my website
A huge thanks to everybody supporting the game and everybody that has given me feedback to help me improve the game.
