Haha, yeah, I think estimating workload is an extremely important skill. Technically speaking I completed more in the last two years with Ristorante Amore and Witch/Knight but this time round I was going to be working in a more complex style and I knew my life was going to be a little upside down with moving and everything, so I toned down my ambitions significantly to make sure my workload was achievable. Even then I had my worries about the CGs, but they actually went over well. So yeah, it's important to not be too ambitious, expect everything to take longer than you think it will and ALWAYS expect life to throw obstacles in your way. Plan for them.daikiraikimi wrote:Dang! Seven CGs. O.O I've got two so far.... But they're only sketches. XD I found during this NaNoRenO that I have no idea how to color backgrounds at all and that I should learn that.
(I've done seven sprites inked and colored, another six sketched, another five designed, plus ten background sketches and mockups, full GUI, and two sketched CGs. I overdid it on the sprites, since that's what I knew how to do... But after listing that I guess I don't feel as bad about my progress. In the future, I'll just have to be more careful to plan my projects appropriately for the time I have, though!)

CGs have been finalised and saved out and the last GUI stuff is done! So I have achieved everything I set out to do. Since I did not write myself off it means I have time for extra stuff now.

All the game's writing and art has been done so now it's just a matter of furiously coding everything and having it tested. I'm pretty sure the game will be out tomorrow (April 1st) without a hitch, just probably later in the evening (CST) since I have class earlier in the day. Please look forward to it! *_*

Oh, I also got that extra CG done last night (though it was a different one from the one I original sketched >_>) so there should be a total of 7 CGs in the game
