This is our plan!
Added 2019-08-08 23:05:29 +0000 UTCSince there were quite a few complaints about the different art styles between the animations and the portraits we gave it a lot of thoughts about how we should resolve this issue and this is our conclusion.
We are just going to give you both art styles and you will get to choose what you want to see. But there is a catch. Only the more simplified and cartoony looking art style by "LNSC" will be animated, at least for now.
Since the more complicated art style we are using for the portraits is much more difficult to animate, we will only include a few static CG images for you to enjoy during the "breeding events" if you choose to see the monsters only in the more difficult art style created by "Julioalqae".
This should serve as a good compromise for now.
Eventually, with some more support and time, we will get the chance to animate those static CG images as well, but right now this is all we can give you for this game.
Let us know what you think.
Do you agree with our decision? If not let us know why.
Sincerely
Team Bieno.
Example of what a cow monster looks like in the new art style for those who haven't seen it yet.

That might be a good idea. Yeah, we are interested in having those traits at some point, but right now we will focus on doing the scened we already can do with those monsters we have before we add more work for us than we can handle.

2019-09-18 14:30:11 +0000 UTCThank you for letting us know your concern. You are right, it's been a while, that's why we have made a new post explaining the current situation and what's been done so far

2019-08-29 18:51:40 +0000 UTCThis could come in much later updates for sure.
Bieno
2019-08-29 18:50:11 +0000 UTCTry to update us a little more, not too much to ask for progress once a week, your last entry was 20 days ago.

2019-08-29 09:50:18 +0000 UTCAdd stallion / centaur race pls
2019-08-21 16:34:38 +0000 UTCUhh dude this game similar breeding season, and breeding season never use egg mechanics😅
2019-08-21 16:33:57 +0000 UTCPlease do not use egg mechanics. All breeding games I play use the tedious egg mechanics. Since when are mammals born from eggs?
2019-08-21 09:55:07 +0000 UTCThe neoteny trait is unlikely to come in our game, since our animator said at one point, he does not like to draw the child like looking monster. But who knows, maybe it could come at one point in the future anyway.
Bieno
2019-08-20 23:28:26 +0000 UTCThank you. That is appreciated. As of now, we are more open to story ideas. If you have some let us now in our discord server.
Bieno
2019-08-20 23:22:18 +0000 UTCJust like the "Feral trait" in Breeding Season!
WH_BlackPanzer
2019-08-19 01:39:15 +0000 UTCYou have earned my support, adding it the first of next month. I also helped in the story writing for Strive for Power, cleaning up the writing, fixing grammar, et cetera. I wasn't the only writer on it. I was the first a native English writer. I am willing to lend a hand since both of you run Ren'Py, I am familiar with it. I am no longer active on that development team. My last writing for them was over half a year ago.
2019-08-18 11:29:04 +0000 UTCI see some massive positives but would love a more feral style eventually be added via a trait tag. Doesn't have to be completely animal, but more a bestial appearance. Another flaw, I believe with games like this is the absence of the human breeder to earn traits. These could be either ones from the monster or specific to the human breeder themselves. Could this be considered?
2019-08-18 11:18:41 +0000 UTCNeoteny trait is trait which is make the monster looks like children version of that monster. Sorry for bad English 😅
2019-08-17 08:01:54 +0000 UTCCan you give some explanation as to what that is? We've also probably excluded the notion of providing a debug code. We think absolute power corrupts, absolutely. Lol
MorahBieno
2019-08-17 07:42:17 +0000 UTCAnd some neoteny trait as well 😅
2019-08-16 11:30:01 +0000 UTCPlease add debug code, just like breeding season 😅
2019-08-15 15:29:28 +0000 UTCSorry, what do you mean by "with digitigrade legs" Do you mean the cartoony art style of our monsters? But yeah, there will be different body types.
Bieno
2019-08-15 14:22:15 +0000 UTCAre you planning on making different body types like Breeding Season? Humanized ones as shown as the cowgirl, and feral ones with digitigrade legs?
WH_BlackPanzer
2019-08-13 02:27:48 +0000 UTCWell, we will eventually try. But I can't promise anything.
Bieno
2019-08-12 19:31:36 +0000 UTCYeah, that should be easy to add.
Bieno
2019-08-12 19:30:48 +0000 UTCWell, this sure would be a nice thing. But it would be a lot of work since you obviously would need to create more animations and scenes for those variations. None the less, we are aiming for more variety in the future anyway.
Bieno
2019-08-12 19:30:09 +0000 UTCThere is the link to the free discord server https://discordapp.com/invite/UJ6x9Xj

2019-08-12 19:27:57 +0000 UTCA free to join discord server would be great for the game
Rose
2019-08-12 19:24:14 +0000 UTCOne thing i would like to See is variety since breeding is the core feature it would be cool if could get trough breeding different variants as example for cat girls : phanter ,cheetahs or tigers , gen fusion could also be thing like fuse a catgirl and a doggirl on order to create a wercat or harpie + cat = griffin .
Rose
2019-08-12 19:23:11 +0000 UTCAnd restock button 😅
2019-08-12 02:04:49 +0000 UTCYep just like breeding season 😅
2019-08-12 01:59:43 +0000 UTCWhat do you mean? Do you mean cutout animations?
Bieno
2019-08-12 01:20:21 +0000 UTCCan you add some animation on it just like breeding season??? 🙁
2019-08-11 12:37:21 +0000 UTCСпасибо, мы постараемся все возможное
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:12:13 +0000 UTCThat is a good idea, this should probably come in the future.
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:10:30 +0000 UTCYeah, It seems to be a bug. Thank you for letting us know.
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:09:39 +0000 UTCThank you. We will do our best.
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:08:43 +0000 UTCThat is a great idea. We will discuss it further in our team.
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:07:38 +0000 UTCWe probably won't ever move away from the cartoony style, that's why we have decided for this compromise
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:06:19 +0000 UTCThat's great to hear.
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:03:44 +0000 UTCYeah, animations are rewarding to find those kind of games and we thank you for the compliment, but what do you mean by " info on each stable animal"?
Bieno
2019-08-11 08:03:17 +0000 UTCИзвините за мой плохой русский, но да, мы собираемся оживить его, как только у нас будет достаточно поддержки.
Bieno
2019-08-11 07:59:45 +0000 UTCЯ согласен с решением на включение обоих стилей. Так те кто хочет видеть анимацию будет доволен так же как и тот кто хочет видеть более сложный портретный стиль. Предпочитаю именно портретный стиль. К тому же со временем его ведь тоже будут анимировать?
2019-08-11 06:32:53 +0000 UTCThe first art style will be easier to animate so i'd go with that, bc we all want those animations. Maybe some info on each stable animal, perks and what not. Game looks very promising. Better to have the first artsyle with more frames in the animation then the new one with less also. The first style doesn't look bad at all imo.
Repost121
2019-08-10 04:34:35 +0000 UTCI really like this decision since I like both art styles. I look forward to seeing more of this game!
2019-08-10 00:39:20 +0000 UTCJust played the public. This has promise and would be great to have a well-managed reboot / resurrection of Breeding Season. I do second the observation that the difference in art styles is jarring. Really should be one or the other as those two styles don't mesh well. The new style proposed above would be more consistent. In longer term you should move away from the cartoony style. It doesn't go well - hopefully that artist can migrate the style.
Felix
2019-08-09 19:56:11 +0000 UTCHere's a thought, one of the things that I disliked about BS was that the breeder could never get traits. Actually, you could, but it was honestly quite frustrating to do, and it was clearly an exploit. I'd say turn the "part-time assistant work" with Talia into a chance that you'll mutate the breeder with traits, alongside the obvious affection gains.

2019-08-09 19:44:15 +0000 UTCThat portrait looks absolutely phenomenal, and its art is fantastic, when I saw this post a giant grin spread over my face, I can't wait to see where this project is going to lead. I have a little cash I could give this month so I'll subscribe to you for a bit.
2019-08-09 15:05:39 +0000 UTCI have noticed something that seems like an error to me, but might not be. When looking at the Job board for selling monsters you will see X number of days left. If you start a morning with 3 days left to fulfill then advance to night you go down to 2 days left. Then if you sleep, the next morning you have 1 day left. Seems like an error in time, you shouldn't be charged a full day by going from morning to night in the same day....right? Did that all make sense? Am I just not understanding what is happening?
Dipper Pines
2019-08-09 14:34:27 +0000 UTCIs there a way to give your MC traits? Maybe have the monster seller's part time job events give them?
Nope.
2019-08-09 10:58:46 +0000 UTCДобрый день. Очень люблю игру Breeding seson. Как понимаю это ее так сказать перерождение, причем очень хорошее. =) Сразу видны огромные планы с большим расширением игровой механики. Желаю вам огромных успехов. Буду спонсировать по мере своих средств. По поводу изображения, предпочитаю более сложный стиль. Пусть он и займет много времени на анимацию, так как в этой игре это далеко не самое главное.
2019-08-09 08:57:51 +0000 UTCThank you.

2019-08-09 08:28:54 +0000 UTCThank you that is good to hear ^^

2019-08-09 08:28:39 +0000 UTCYou are welcome.
Bieno
2019-08-09 08:28:03 +0000 UTCI think I understand what you mean. And for your question, I am sure we will get the chance to add more furry like monsters in the game, but for now we are only going to work with what we have.
Bieno
2019-08-09 08:27:33 +0000 UTCThank you that is good to hear ^^
Bieno
2019-08-09 08:25:06 +0000 UTCI thought about it, but it might be more fun and beneficial if you could switch whenever you want, so you can be sure you won't miss any scenes if you choose to find them all. So yeah, there will be only one version.
Bieno
2019-08-09 08:24:29 +0000 UTCWill be there ferals or "more furry" characters,species,variants in the game ? And in your eyes,monsters/furries could live together in a same world (lamia,centaur with fox could be nice to see too, but as I think, cowgirls isn't full furry,so I think, they will come in time :) I hope they can,that means more girls in future ! :) Sorry for bad english ! :( Love ya !

2019-08-09 07:40:05 +0000 UTCgood plan and well thort out
Yaoi Gardevoir
2019-08-09 06:11:46 +0000 UTCBravo, thank you guys for not giving up and listing to us. As a question, is the idea that you would release 2 different versions or would it be an option in the game?
2019-08-09 01:55:23 +0000 UTCThank you for giving us options to choose, that is very nice of you! I love your idea!
WH_BlackPanzer
2019-08-09 01:27:48 +0000 UTCI really appreciate that you listened,and are willing to do what is necessary to accommodate the audience. I will be increasing my pledge shortly. Keep up the good work guys. :)

2019-08-09 00:38:18 +0000 UTCI love the idea, keep up the good work
2019-08-08 23:13:32 +0000 UTCGreat compromise I'd say!
MorahBieno
2019-08-08 23:11:12 +0000 UTCI'm fine with having two different artstyles, since like you said, one style is harder to animate than the other, so I'm fine with either decision you make with.
