Rough of the week#36

Still working on that short scene for chap 3.

The conversion of chap 1 is well on the way and we should start testing on mobile devices fairly soon. Can't wait!

Chapter 3 has always felt a bit short to me, so before jumping head first into the fifth part, I decided to write a short extra scene that sheds some light on Francesco's life.

Rough of the week#34

A lot happened in the last month or so.

First of all, chapter 4 is done!!! I'm happy this is behind me and I'm (for once) quite happy with it.

Secondly, the guys at turbointeractive are taking care of all the computer stuff for chapter 1.
No release date yet, but it should come reasonnably soon.

and finally, Song of the sea is nominated for an oscar!!

I finally seem to have found some sort of balance and for a week or two now, I've been on a mission!
I think it helps that I'm starting to see the finish line and that the technical issues are (slowly) being solved.
There was also a big important scene that I was dreading and that is now 90% behind me, which helps.
Now, I'm not sure I'll be done by christmas, as I had hoped, but I'll get pretty close...

Still steadily working a little everyday, but I must say that a lot is going on outside and I can't find the time or energy to blog...  November is at an end and I think I might still be on target to finish chapter 4 before the end of the year, at which point I think I will take a long break, waiting impatiently for the series to come out. Me and my friend are still loooking at ways to turn it into something that will work on about everything and I hope I can announce a rough guestimate of a date soon.

Rough of the week#31

Friday was off and  even though I was tempted to rest, I managed to do quite a bit of work and move forward.
That's good because I was starting to feel a bit impatient with how slow everything is moving. I think I still have difficulties adapting to the long commute and work at the studio, even though it is really easy, is actually very tiring...

Rough of the week#30

I've been back in Europe for a couple of weeks now and found my desk at home just where I left it, but it took me a while to get back into Violince.
While I was away I've worked on other projects that I'm still trying to push forward, but little by little I've started working again. This here is the first drawing of Francesco I did since January and I was a bit worried I'd lost the feel for it, but so far it's been okay; it's funny how some things have just become automatic overtime...
I'm hoping to finish the fourth chapter before the end of the year and release 1 to 4 in quick succession after that, but I'm still struggling with publishing formats and a whole bunch of computer things I can't (and don't really want to) understand.
All in good time I guess...
