hey i've gotten a lot of really sweet asks that i feel awkward answering individually bc it would just be me saying thank you over and over (and i also like keeping them in my inbox to read lol) so here's one big THANK YOU to everyone for your support, especially over the past year!! it's been a rough one but dreadnought is one of the things keeping me going and i'm really glad people enjoy it!
the next few updates are gonna be a little spread out-- i'll try to have the voting results/post-trial ready for next monday, but after that it just depends on how long the execution art takes! i've been working on it off and on for a while but there's still a ways to go ๐
thanks again for sticking around and i hope you enjoy the rest of the chapter!!
despite everything i still like the energy of the old version lol
sorry this is late i had a depressive episode and have lost all sense of the passage of time. but im still mostly on track to have this out by the... end of the month?? maybe first week of july?? progress as of 6/14 under the cut:
WRITING: ~99% done (with the first draft)
ALMOST THERE... the last chunk of the trial has the most new stuff so it's taking a little longer than the rest, but i've also been editing/proofreading the earlier sections as i go!
MINIGAMES: ~80% done
still wrestling with anagram gambit
climactic deduction DONE
nonstop debates now have skippable text
all selection screens are workin
the newer minigame is a bullet time battle equivalent and the code is almost done!!
ART: ~60% done
CGs (1/4)
sprites (10/20+)
banners (12/14)
climactic deduction comic (14/14 DONE!!!)
minigame art assets (2/6?)
MUSIC: ~90% done
13 tracks pretty much done
1 in progress and 1 to go!! there's a couple more i may add if i have time tho
also been experimenting with sound effects! it'll be a lil work to get everything set up but OH the serotonin of the little danganronpa noises playing as you scroll down the page
WEBSITE: 100% done
bf found a couple bugs after i sent him a wip build but i think i got em fixed!
experimenting with hosting on itch.io so it's easier to download a standalone version-- 60-70mb is still less than a 5 minute youtube video, but stuff will always load faster if it's already on your hard drive haha
this week i wanna try to finish the music and get the minigames working!! that's gonna be the biggest factor in a release date so hopefully by next week i will actually have a Day and Time
art fight is over so im back to working on dreadnought, but i had a couple of unexpected commissions pop up over the weekend and this update needs more art than i thought. i'll try to have it out this week but it will be done when it's done pretty much lol
in the meantime i'll queue up another batch of stuff!! pls @ me in art fight attacks i would love 2 reblog em

CLASS TRIAL 1 - Progress Report #6 (the last one hopefully!!)
i don't rly have any other art i can show without spoilers so please accept this cute vash sprite
progress as of 6/30 under the cut! one of my beta readers is out of town and there's one more song i want to add anyway, so i'm gonna say the official release date is JULY 7, hopefully around 6pm CST!
(i'll also be doing art fight this year, [here's my profile!] mono-9000 made me be team cyberpunk)
i finally finished the ending and brace yourself folks... i'm excited bc it's the way i've always wanted to end the trial (i just didn't know how to code it before) but it is also an order of magnitude more upsetting ๐
anyways i'll finally be able to send it out to beta readers later this week!!
MINIGAMES: ~100% done
code's done for all the minigames!! just finishing up art for the bullet time battle equivalent
ART: ~98% done
CGs (5/5 done!)
sprites (25/25 done i think unless i missed one??)
banners (14/14 done!!)
climactic deduction comic (14/14 DONE!!!)
minigame art assets (5/6 you will SEE why these have been taking so long YOU'LL ALL SEE)
MUSIC: ~95% done
bumping this one back down to 95% because i have an old wip for a song that im gonna finish up and add in!
i'm mostly done adding sound effects but i'm still tweaking it
WEBSITE: 100% done
i got a downloadable version of the trial working that i'm gonna go ahead and recommend as the best way to play it-- having all the files on your hard drive means there's no waiting for images to load or sound effects to play! there'll be downloads for windows mac and linux
but if you only read on mobile don't worry! there'll be a low-bandwidth version without music if you're worried about data usage, and the version with music is playable in browser on itch.io too!
just gotta finish up the last lil bit of art and music and then get it in front of beta readers!!
sorry folks i need another week for the next update! art fight will be over by then and also i thought of an emotionally compromising cg to maybe add lol
next update will hopefully be august 2! and ill let y'all know about the status of the execution then too!
