Hey peeps, sorry I'm so late with this post but life stuff happened, and it took some time to make the new Animation previews. Because of Patreons rules these previews will be in a separate post!
I'm sorry it's been way too long since a build release, but this next one will be the biggest update in a long while.
New sex sim content, new UI, new outfit features, all kinda stuff.
There may be two builds this month as kaitou wants to do a test release for the rewrite of the outfit system, but besides that there's a TON of implementation stuff being worked on right now.
And the goal is to get it all done as much as possible before the end of the month.
But a lot of things have to fall in place cause they tend to rely on each other. Like for example the new UI requires some new functions for it to work, then that ties in with new shop stuff for unlocking outfits, and that ties into new saving functions, which ties into story progression. It's all a big pretzel and often when it comes to making a release, I usually make temporary fixes so things work. But sometimes that causes issues on their own later.
But all that said I'll be doing my best this month to get a build release with at least some of the new content functional ASAP.
This may mean I'll have to hold back on my Animation nit picks, so please forgive that if there's some quality issues around there. Maybe lacking camera angles and stuff initially. it could take a few forms but will at least be functional.
I am currently intending to have some visual upgrades as well but we'll see how that plays out. Some of it depends on if Unity 2020.2 comes out of beta soon. I actually seriously need to make new promotional images due to all the changes with the UI and stuff. And I hope I can do that after I get the visual upgrades done!
Please check the other post for previews!
I haven't named the animators yet but they are Kabangeh and Voimond! Both are well known for their own animations, and have done a great job with the animations so far! Besides the new sex sim animations Kabangeh as also done some dialogue animations as well!
Voimond may not be doing sex sim animations after this set due to how demanding those can be (17 animations each set!) but I'll have them do animations for dialogue scenes instead which is much less demanding.
In fact to meet my deadlines in general I may simply include some simpler scenes rather than sex sim stuff to fill the rest of my content demands. We'll see.
There is also a third animator, but I wont announce them until I have more previews :P
Besides sex animations, I'll also have then working on some of Naomi's daily animations too.
As a last note A LOT has been done on the writing front, I found someone named V who is very eager to do Sex Sim dialogue so that's been going very well!
Everyone else has been on boarded and work is being done. I don't know how much will be finished before the build release but things are looking good.
I have some surprises in store too, while sex sim currently lacks progression type features for now. There are things I want to do that have some measure of progression involving choices you make. But I'm very cautious about these want want to keep them mostly self contained.
I'll update on stuff like this in the future as now content is largely what I'm concerned about. I hope soon we'll be focused on just content rather than small functional things. Cause I have many ideas I want to talk about, but I don't want to discuss things that may end up far off. :P
I sadly don't have as much to say in this post as I usually do, but I'm probably also forgetting something. Hopefully the preview animations are enjoyable, I tried to make them look really good to make up for the lack of a build.
I hope next post will be more exciting as I can show things in-engine!
Thanks for your support and patience!
