Progress 10.08.2026

Hello all!

Ehh... yeah, okay. Rendering is going decently. I have one scene left to render; it’s... a bit more complex than I expected, but eh, it’s just a minor annoyance in the grand scheme of things. Next one is probably even more annoying.

Writing is progressing. I have a plan for tonight, so all should be good on that front. Not that the plans have been holding recently, but alas, that’s life.


Sooo... I really had to find an image that wouldn’t be a major spoiler. This is actually from the last scene. For the first time, I rendered scenes out of order, partially because I wasn’t in the mood for building a complex set on Sunday... which I ended up doing anyway after rendering this scene. And thus, chat between Detective Randall and Agent Smith... and giving the good detective some extra gear so she can protect herself. Some basic things, anyway. Right, a shortish break and then finishing this part and writing.

Progress 07.08.2026

Hello all!

Good news and bad news; the good news is I’m making progress and the bad news is I managed to get sick. Interesting, well, that would explain the irritation I’ve been feeling for the last couple of weeks. Nothing to worry about, just having somewhere north of 25 temperatures for a few weeks and then suddenly dropping to closer to 10 tends to do that. Ah, well, more tea it is then.

Rendering is going okay. Render count wise I’m slightly behind where I would want to be, but in relation to the script, I’m about there, but as usual, things will get done.

As for writing? It’s going on, hopefully I’ll get it to where I want it to be over the weekend. But not that concerned about it at the moment.


A preview? Wow... sorry, the fever is breaking so my sense of humor tends to be a bit off. There is a quick trip to the Orient in the next three updates. It’s funny how easy things are when you have "at-will long-range teleporting" available. And the cult plot moves forward as well. The next few updates are mostly about the cult, with some minor side of others... Anyway, you all have a great weekend. I’ll take a break, and then continue to do stuff!

Progress 03.08.2026 and Changelog for Sorcerer 2 0.15.0

Hello all!

So, yeah... as usual, things happened as one would expect. And the release is happening more or less on time... Yay?

Meanwhile, rendering of 0.16.0 has started, writing is moving to 0.19.0 so I’m mostly content with how things are going on that front. And now... some other business before all the fun stuff.


There were some comments that this particular scene might be hard to read. It’s fair criticism. So I did something about it. Notice the ? In the top-left corner? Clicking that will bring up a clearer version of the thing on the phone.



As you can see, easier to read. In the future, when there is something similar, the ? Will be in the corner for a clearer view if needed. And then that led to something else as well..
 
Occasionally Alexander looks at his phone; this is mostly just for scene filler and nothing important. Once again you notice the ? In the corner, you get to see what is on the screen. Mind you, it isn’t anything story-related as is; if it would the phone screen would be shown. So world building. And if you happen to miss them? Not a problem. 
 


There is, opportunity to read (note at this time only ones Alexander receives at this stage) whenever you want, basically. It has issues at the moment since it is first iteration. Some text is currently different in the game than in the next version. But you can access the phone from the quick menu.


 The blue icon (when highlighted) opens it. I’ll add an icon variant when there are new things to look at in there. But it’s more of a "history" feature for some world building if you will. There probably won’t be much in there, and it can be ignored and you don’t miss anything story-wise, but it’s something "nice" to have in a way. Note: This doesn't currently work on Android as it threw up... interesting error message. But rest are there and working. I'll try to get it working there ASAP. 

Then added the delete icon in the save/load screen in the pictures. Hooray... And then the fun stuff.

Somewhere nice and warm... This is a test for a future scene. It is missing things, so no spoilers yet, story-wise at least. And yes, I am bringing Marella back to the game with a larger presence. So there is that. And now the important bits.

Progress 31.07.2026

Hello all!

Well, if last week wasn’t great... neither has this one. I’m somewhere around 500+ renders, but rendering is mostly done. Rendering some fixes now, slightly annoying. And then I have three auxiliary renders (and the hidden render) to do, but none of those really hinders testing. Beyond that, post-work is done. So it is mostly coding left. Yay...

Writing is in an okay state; I should be able to finish things over the weekend... after coding the thing first. So there is that.

And this is a minor spoiler, but not really. If you chose the right option, you knew it would be coming eventually. Nurse Steele. She... amuses me in a sense. She was just a character quickly thrown in for the Sorcerer’s epilogue, and that was just to give a break between the slides... Well, there you have it. Anyway, I’ll head back to rendering and coding things. You all have a great weekend!

Progress 27.07.2026

Hello all!

Monday! It was... decently productive weekend. For the most part. Rendering is on the final scene, as long as a couple of characters load in to fill the background. Somewhere around three-hundred renders, minus some annoying fixes. But overall, I think I’m where I should be, and it will still take a bit longer than I want. Eh... happens.

Writing is in decent shape, had some time to write and got over some annoyance, so it’s flowing again decently. Had to rewrite a few pages because I didn’t like where it was going originally, but nothing new.

A preview? Yay! There are a couple of choices in this update that might seem odd. They have their purpose in the grand scheme of things. There are two larger goals. To become a Great House, and obviously survive the ordeals thrown at them... Every other plot is in the ordeals part, mostly. Some intertwine. Although the guys hair is black and not gray for some reason, despite applying gray textures... annoying. Anyway.

And then continuation from Friday... of sorts. Some of the comments brought this image to my mind, so had to get it out... So have fun with it... And now short break and more rendering... yay.

Progress 24.07.2026

Hello all!

Ah man... this week hasn’t been good, bleh. Anyway. Rendering is... somewhere technically a bit behind but nothing too drastic. I had to rerender a portion of the first scene, I spotted something I didn’t like, so... had to redo the renders to keep my brain from nagging me to death. Anyway, I have two scenes left... but those two scenes are half of the update. But it shouldn’t be too bad.

Writing, it’s somewhere. I should get done what I need to do over the weekend. So nothing there really.

And I can’t really show what I’m working with at the moment, so... something else. Internal title: dog sitting. Yeah, not the most likely pair I’d pick for dog sitting, but mother wants to believe the best of her boys... That and demands daily pictures of her precious dog being still alive, safe is optional. Anyway, short break and more rendering and writing. Have a great weekend you all!


Progress 10.08.2026

Hello all! Ehh... yeah, okay. Rendering is going decently. I have one scene left to render; it’s... a bit more complex than I expected, but ...
