Holidays Development Update - 24th December 2020

Ever since I released my plans for v0.1.4, I've been looking at other Sci-Fi universes for inspiration and worked through a few of my checklists to smoothen the next version's development. All the while, I've prepared the lower resolution & less revealing images for the public build and after I post this I will try to prepare the public build for an earlier release. It feels kind of bad to release a public build at the end of the month, considering that the new pledging system charges patrons when they subscribe and then again at the beginning of the month, leading to a potential double charge in a short timespan. Because of this, I will try to release the public build earlier than it was supposed to be, as soon as it's ready.

Now, for the checklists I went through:

Art: 

• Finished the ripped variations of the explorer outfit and I also finished separating its top from its bottom (for the blackjack minigame and not only).
• Finished drawing the three new expressions for all the skin colors. Surprised, Frown, Puzzled. I hope you can figure out which is which in the attachments 😅

Writing:

• The diagram for the Exotic Beast Hunting Quest is 90% done. It will be a pretty big quests, separated across 3 days, like an expedition. Each day comes with its own unique enemy and there will be many choices you can take along the way, leading to potentially 4+ playthroughs of this quest to see all the content. Because many have asked for bad ends in the game, this quest will have its own unique bad end and I hope you will like it.

That by the way, is as I said, only 90% done. Considering this and the festival are the last quests of the village, I really want to give them the attention they deserve.

Coding:

• For the Competitive NSFW Mechanic, we now have a concept work. The coding of this will not be easy and to not let it distract from the main content, it will be one of the latest checklists I go through. When the time comes, it will have its own post, since it brings another mechanic to the table just as the combat and the blackjack mechanics did.

Now for the last important aspect of this development update, I wish you happy holidays, great health and as much joy as there can be in these trying times!
