Gold Edition?

Alright this is a patrons-only post because at the end of the day your opinion is the only one that really matters since you finance my projects directly.

I created this poll because I want to now your opinion. This does not mean that I will change my plans depending on the poll results. At the end of the day I personally should be interested in the project. That being said I am still curious to see what opinion you guys have on this.

THE QUESTION. What would you personally want me to work on next?
1. Queen Trainer GOLD EDITION?
2. STAR CHANNEL Season 02.
3. Some other project? (Reporter Trainer, or Ashelin Trainer or some such.)

P.S. There is no setting to make the results private (so that only I could see the results), which is a shame. Try not to let other's choices affect your own choice too much. This is not about which position will get the most votes, I just want to get a feel of the general consensus on this issue.

Comments

The Leonardo figure is very nice, April is ok.. i like April so i buyed it, when it was cheap after christmas. Maybe i should read the comic.

annonyme

He-Man/TMNT crossover is a real thing, actually. They made an official comic, and they're in the middle of a line of action figures for it.

Martin Whitmore

Yeah...i too realised that later...and let's just say that she was among those characters from pop culture who influenced my taste. And the cover art of the Brood War expansion really did not help things back then. :D (my mind contains a lot of less known characters as well from old ass games, so...yeah...those were the days... *old people noises* )

Stenonis

^_^

AKAMAN

I used to have a crash on Carrigan while playing the original StarCraft on my outdated PC 20 years ago or so. I realize now that I am not that special and everyone has a thing for her XD

AKAMAN

This reminds me of the emotions I went through with Persona3FES ending. I fucking hated it, but I loved everything that was leading up to it. After a while I sort of just excepted it, and after some more time I have learned to appreciate the dark nature it. Although I still sometimes thing that maybe I just coping XD

AKAMAN

Soon* XD

AKAMAN

i hear its good. its got all the ELEMENTS of a great trainer game...

Hellfire1396

Seeing this too late, but the results reflect my preferences well. SC34 Hooray! April, Ashelin, or Lara trainer would also be awesome..

Iggy

You mean do like Witch Trainer GOLD EDITION or something? Maybe one day.

AKAMAN

Witch Trainer will always be my favorite. Do you have plans to ever go back to that sort of like how you did Princess Trainer?

Koranuso

yes lol, as soon as they were mentioned i wanted to see them in your art style. but honestly ill play whatever game you plan on making!

Zzzpin

If you do go a QTGE route, maybe consider sprinkling a few CGs into the existing content? In the first 30 minutes it's basically all sprites, and giving the player a taste or two would make it a lot more fun (IMHO). Adding new content is great, of course, but buffing out what is already there would be a big win.

Dubsington

I know. And I was probably just as upset during my first playthrough. That is the thing about story telling though. It is often the controversies that we remember. Hell, I thought a lot about what Hermione would do after the genie left.. how would she react when the old headmaster came back.. Oh wait. That is a great setup for a sequel. Finding the genie in a school that looks down upon her slutty behaviour.. Anyway, thanks for your hard work and for taking your time responding!

kebabman

Just preferences i guess, no issues 🫠

FanHarem

I know there's a poll that's got sc34 in the lead but I feel like something new would be more fun to work on. And the possibilities with jak and dexter are huge and barely tapped into by other artists. It would be funny if genie was accidentally swapped with jak like dumbledore in witch trainer and everyone thought he was jak. I'm just spitballing ideas.

Kalashx39

Well, more along the lines of getting zerg infestation onboard via some teleport mishap or something and then having the great idea to grab Kerrigan to help out. Because according to my math, more redheads on a ship = better. Turning the girls into aliens sounds more like some sim-room-stuff...which still could be culturally enriching.

Stenonis

I am pretty sure a game like that exists already. And I hear it's pretty good too. I forgot what it was called though.

AKAMAN

I know it's a sore spot for you sorry for bringing it forward. I know a lot of the negative reception came from similar criticism that queen trainer faced. The CGs. (Queen Trainer is awesome btw) I know the votes are pointing in the Star Channel direction (especially with QT's secret ending) but honestly an Ashelin game still seems like the better play. Something in a different setting might be nice for you to work on? Idk but as always I'll support you, been here since og princess trainer days ain't changing anytime soon.

Dragoon

Noted! Soon* XD

AKAMAN

Noted. The good thing about Star Channel was that thanks to it's linear nature I had more time to work on the art.

AKAMAN

That "melancholy of the plot line" brought me a lot of hateful comments back in the day. Kind of rare to hear that somebody actually enjoyed that aspect of those games. XD Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on this. There are many things I need to consider when starting a new project, so I can't just do whatever the hell I want. If I could I would probably create something completely original. Maybe one day :)

AKAMAN

Indeed it does :)

AKAMAN

StarCraft "infestation"? What you mean? Turning girls into aliens like Carrigan?

AKAMAN

Noted ;)

AKAMAN

Naruto is one of my all time favorite anime but for some reason I don't have that sort of interest in the female cast of it. I am not even sure why.

AKAMAN

Agreed. I love that universe and very familiar with the characters. To have an Ashelin trainer with the rest of the girls (Tess and Kiera), as optional love/training interests would be dope. ^^

AKAMAN

Witch Trainer Gold Edition? I don't know... Maybe some time in the distant future. -_- As for Ashelin, I definitely plan to give her a lot of screentime in the future.

AKAMAN

All sorts of things that got cut in favor of sooner release.

AKAMAN

Noted!!! :)

AKAMAN

Yeah, I like the flamboyance and childish nature of Peach, but that would 100% get me in trouble for one reason or another.

AKAMAN

I hear you. Don't worry more stuff with Ashelin is definitely coming, as for Iris, she is not going anywhere, obviously :)

AKAMAN

Tifa/Aerith? Are you saying this because I sort of kind of put them into QT? Hm... Well, I think we should start with Ashelin first. She was waiting longer.

AKAMAN

If all goes well April will be getting her chance to shine soon :)

AKAMAN

Agreed XD

AKAMAN

bit left field for you but i would not mind seeing an avatar trainer with the OG girls. if anyone can train them to help the avatar/save world and combine elements be you. be a nice way to see azula broken and tie in the other babes. i know MITY did a game like this a while back but love to see your take on theme.

Hellfire1396

fair call. maybe a post grad reunion trainer?

Hellfire1396

I am sure eventually AI will evolve into a tool that I could use, but as it is right now I don't see much application for it. If I can help it I plan to draw the backgrounds myself or commission somebody to draw them for me like I did in the past with SC34. If I have no time or run out of money I could try using AI I guess, but very sparingly because I can always see when a drawing was created by an AI and 99% of the time it doesn't look that good. P.S. TrapHunter69, you are my totem animal.

AKAMAN

Hermione is one of my favorites. :) I love the school settings.

AKAMAN

Coming soon * XD

AKAMAN

Soon* Maybe. Or some new content involving Lara at least :)

AKAMAN

Noted :)

AKAMAN

Don't give me 4th wall breaking ideas like that please. T_T

AKAMAN

Absolutely, I've no doubt you would! That's why I think a narrower scope on the next game could benefit you more. :) you'd get to focus more on what you want to create the most, and we'd get a more cohesive and rewarding game. Thanks for taking the time and going through my wall of text, btw. 😆 ❤️

Icytoed

Hey no worries, work what you know. Like if I suggest the Jetsons its a suggestion not a commandment! Im just happy to be along for the ride

tanktreads

That's quite a request. But I'll see what I can do. (By that I mean that you will see more of them in my future projects, not that I will actually start working on a trainer game featuring both April and Hermione at the same time as the main characters.

AKAMAN

Oh man, Night Dog was a small demo, but it had such a cool atmosphere. Wandering through a midnight dreamy city, meeting girls and other strangers... It could be a nice small game

TrapHunter69

Sorry, I am not very familiar with the franchise, so I won't be able to do the characters justice. That being said, didn't somebody already create a game like that involving Teen Titans? Or am I confusing this with Something Unlimited?

AKAMAN

A trainer where Ashelin and Lara compete for popularity. Now that is a game I would play. XD

AKAMAN

Ashelin is a lucky girl. I never would have guessed that she would get so popular. Don't you worry though, I plan to give plenty of screen time in the future. Promise.

AKAMAN

Noted, noted and noted. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed feedback. I agree with a lot of what you are saying, but I hope that you understand that he only reason for the lack of art is the time limitations. If I could I would illustrate EVERYTHING XD

AKAMAN

Yeah, I am VERY interesting in creating something like that with Lara. So many possibilities :)

AKAMAN

Also know as the slut from channel 6. XD

AKAMAN

I am pretty sure I already created a game like that. I believe it was called Witch Coach or something like that XD

AKAMAN

I am glad that you and me seem to agree on so many things it seems. Don't you worry, I have some interesting plans for Season 02 :)

AKAMAN

Yes. Star Channel wasn't perfect but it had a lot of good ideas in the way the entire set up was presented. It also taught me a lot. With season 2 I plan to put that new knowledge to use :)

AKAMAN

You mentioning The Night Dog really took me aback. I didn't even realize it was released publicly at some point. This was just a little DEMO game a wrote to illustrate what you can do with Ren'Py. You mentioning it made me nostalgic. I asked Smersh to send me a copy and had a short playthrough: bought the teaser, saved the girl, ordered sushi, had sex and moved on with my life. Good times. I need to get back to my roots and keep things simple like that. (But with some CGs :) Yes, I want to get back to more straightforward VN-like stuff since it will allow me to be more productive. I still hope to keep a certain level of interactivity in a form of multiple endings.

AKAMAN

I agree options are endless, unlike my resources. Don't you worry though I have some exciting plans for Season 02 :)

AKAMAN

I completely agree with Trap. I found you because of Hermione, sure, but I honestly don't give a shit about any of the existing IP characters besides her and Iris and that's almost entirely because there's a through-line with the games that keeps the characters I've become attached to. I'm also an already established fan and there is a major portion of people who only care about IP characters from their childhood, but I just want to say there's at least a minority who would support an OG game. I also prefer love routes and less humiliation/sharing but that's just me.

Marshall Iblis

Ashelin trainer sounds great, but I would personally would not be interested in April anything. I voted for the star channel season 2 option.

b

👏👏👏

MrLazare

I guess you need to send Lyk more text with more typos.

MrLazare

Yes !! Play with the character dolls 🥹

MrLazare

1000% ok

MrLazare

And Vivi’s mother? If it’s the case I guess I will have to change my vote for QT… I like dolls way more than chibis that’s why QT gold is not my first choice

MrLazare

I mean u could do some side project for fun then sc2 for hearvy contents then small content and gold QT or WT

not NAH

Yeah me too, just recently i decided to join in but in the past i just enjoy then dip.

not NAH

Wait iam dumb she in sc34 the alien girl

not NAH

Who is she

not NAH

Lara or April trainer would be awesome!! But SC02 would also be nice, I like personally your use of CG in the last episodes of SC, more than when you use chibis (I think its called) thats why i prefer any of those 2 instead of QT GE.

German

I think a Queen Trainer Gold edition might be too early yet. Maybe leave the project on a backburner once you're satisfied with the state of the game in regards to bug fixes, then keep a notebook with things you would want to add / fix if you got unlimited time. I am, however extremely curious to see if you would come up with something new, or another story you would feel like adapting. Personally I always wanted to see something around lola / lula. I feel like your strongest suit have always been when you get to focus around the corruption / trainer part. The real kicker for me personally in your two best games imo, witch trainer and princess trainer is the combination of corruption aspect with the melancholy of the plotline that eventually has to end.

kebabman

a Ashelin Trainer sounds promising

WarXan97

I think SC S02 would be fun, but probably a biiig task after QT. So, maybe something smaller... with Ashelin and/or Lara. (someone mentioned a turtles + He-Man crossover, that's an interesting idea imo, even as a little fun something :D ) QT Gold sounds nice but also smells like burnout by monotony. Aaand speaking of SC...we could have a Starcraft "infestation" there. [:

Stenonis

Ok, just know that we love your games not because they are based on popular things. I've never watched Alladin, never played Ashelin or Lara Croft. You make something very special. I started playing WT because of Hermione, but at the end my favorite bits of the game was drinking wine with Severus in front of the fireplace. Often 18+ VNs go in one of two extremes - it's either just generic midless porn (a lot of western VNs) or romantic story-heavy 50-hours Japanese VNs where hentai feels like собаке пятая нога. But you somehow make games that can be funny, heartwarming, emotional and full of high quality h-energy at the same time! You create such vivid likable characters, such atmosphere - I have no doubts any your original project on Steam would be a hit.

TrapHunter69

That is also good to encounter.

Hivedragon

Totally fair. I think the one thing I want to leave you with is that across any game you work on, the biggest reason most of us discovered you and are here is the art, your art specifically. The writing/corruption aspect is a solid second place, but I think it’s fair to say we came for the art and stayed for your character development. As one of your earliest patrons, I think it’s fair to say we have come a long way with QT. You have developed your writing and coding skills so much in the years since PT. It’s a hell of a “game”, and your prowess in those areas has excelled. Many boners for sure, but in terms of actually being able to cum, I think I’m not alone in struggling to finish with mostly just text. If I was to rank the “fappability” of your games, PT:GE ranks far above the rest due to the much higher volume of art assets. It has lots of full CG scenes and scene progression. If the art aspect is still the most enjoyable to you, then I highly encourage you to invest more time in that, be it SC34 or a new trainer. We will all definitely appreciate it! My girlfriend is actually a game developer, and taught me a lot of things- one of those being the concept of a “reskin”, which is simply taking the code/design of a game and porting it to a new setting with very few changes. What if you did that with QT? Basically keep 90% of the code you’ve written, replace the art assets and write new dialog, and create a game that plays the same as QT but with new characters/story/setting? I certainly won’t care that it follows the same gameplay, I’m here to watch my favorite characters get corrupted!

Ragnarok

Thank you for always culturally enriching us! Have a great evening my man.

Nepurin

Noted!

AKAMAN

Surprisingly enough I see a lot of people asking for more Ashelin in the comments. You are not alone fellow man of culture.

AKAMAN

Agreed. The framework took too much planning and coding, but it's there now. Adding more content is much easier. But I will probably take a short break by working on something else first. I feel like if I return to QT right away, I will burn out.

AKAMAN

You made me google for "Goblins curse". And I found nothing. -_-

AKAMAN

It is very nice to see another man of culture. You have a good taste, sir.

AKAMAN

I will be honest with you, that's not very likely. I have very little knowledge (or interest) in modern western animation. Everything after year 2000 is a no-go zone for me.

AKAMAN

Noted. But not on the menu at the moment. That doesn't mean I couldn't steal one of the girls from that show for my games.

AKAMAN

Noted noted and noted. Thank you for your support and your feedback as always, Nepurin.

AKAMAN

^_^

AKAMAN

#^_^#

AKAMAN

I appreciate you are worrying about me. Indeed adding stuff to QT would be much easier than creating something from scratch.

AKAMAN

Noted! ^_^

AKAMAN

Yeah. The more I go through these comments the more I see that people are ready for SC34 Season 02 XD

AKAMAN

By now I am well aware that somehow Ashelin has managed to gather quite a following. I better give people what the want I guess. Good think I am all up for it myself XD I love the Jak universe and it would be interesting to explore it more.

AKAMAN

Those two girls staring together in game? Now that sounds interesting XD

AKAMAN

XD

AKAMAN

Well, Jasmine shows up pretty much in all of my games, so you are in luck ether way :)

AKAMAN

^_^

AKAMAN

Got it! :)

AKAMAN

Lara needs more training. Agreed.

AKAMAN

Yeah, I pretty much agree with everything you say here. ^^

AKAMAN

I am so blessed to have so many true men of culture among my fans T_T

AKAMAN

He-Man and Turtles cross over. XD At first I was like: that's such a weird idea. But then I was like: Hm... He-Man show had quite a few sexy girls in it. Not to mention She-Ra.

AKAMAN

A noble aspiration!

AKAMAN

I did in fact. The problem is that would be have to be a very successful project, it's risky.

AKAMAN

The usual: more stuff. Cut content, Atamansha stuff, some events.

AKAMAN

What would the Golden edition have?

BadSpider

I've heard that there are books and movies with Hermione but I was introduced to her world through WT. Maybe one day I watch those other sources and see if they got much inspiration from Akabar.

Deonast

People like you called artists lazy when they started to work on computers instead of scanning paper work. As I said, AI for background, icons and objects wouldn’t lower the quality at all. Of course the characters, sexualized or not, should remain totally hand made

Vauxe

Ew. As Gaben says, "late is just for a little while. Suck is forever". Akabur's game are the window into the world without modern crappy video games. World where developers actually care about what they are doing, and were actually putting effort in it.

TrapHunter69

Did you consider making someing not based on existing IP? So you could go on Steam? Or at least based on public domain, like Alice In Wonderland

TrapHunter69

I WANT TO DEBASE ASHELIN

captain fantasy

I Like April... So SC or even a small turtles game would bei nice. Maybe even a He-Man and turtles crossover would be nice :-)

annonyme

let's start a riot. WT was the one that made me aware of you and the whole genre in the first place.

Eoraph

I want whatever gives me Ashelin saluting in a topless military uniform.... or a reporter doing a broadcast naked to increase her ratings. So.... either of the second two choices would be culturally enriching.

Dug

An Ashelin or Lara trainer would be awesome and I'd completely be on board with either (April already got Mating Season), but Star Channel coming back I think is the right choice. It gives all of the characters some content, gives Akabur some freedom expand on the great premise already there in SC, and it gives the fans some steady episode releases to enjoy which would be a welcomed change for a while after the 3 year development of QT.

Dahlheadlands

Yes, that's what I meant by a "challenge". Obv a lot of work :)

Ham

I'm down for a Tomb Trainer

AngryCosmonaut

Yeah.... SC01 felt like it was great.... but the scope got too big to resolve normally and was suddenly curtailed. That also seems like the exact type of problem that won't happen when you make a sequel and you know what you want to avoid from the start. It felt like a great vehicle to introduce tons of loved characters and easily be able to explain things.... but what it wasn't very good at was getting to a destination. It was too easy to add so much that would take way too long to finish. Even with all that.... it's still my favorite... if for no other reason than seeing Ashelin salute in a topless military uniform. A man of culture, indeed.

Dug

I would absolutely love an Ashelin Trainer. I really enjoyed QT, but I waited 3 years and I want to see you take on something else.

P

Just use SC as an Intermission before the next big project. Do one chapter and then a new trainer afterwards. This way you have an achievable goal with limited planning and commitment and it gives you more time to think about the next big project.

Max

Reporter Trainer 100%.

Roadman

Now I feel a bit guilty, that I enjoyed it silently) And I know, how that feels, people play my game more, than they leave positive feedback)

Глеб

for me Princess Trainer and Queen Trainer is the best i love all of jusmine and other female character stuff and wish to see more of it

Lazyboyz1458

yes, all 3 at the same time so that you will not have any health issues... :D

Marcelo Nery

😌 well even at the end of the poll and having shared my 2 cents, 😊 I will still respect any decision you make so long as you’re comfortable with it AKAMAN

GamerLegend09

To be able to "enable" the girls to wear each other's costumes I would have to redraw those costumes. Sounds like too much work for a funny gag...

AKAMAN

Thanks. Only the times have changed. Even back in the day I have received a lot of hate initially, and that was then. Now, if I release a game with only one chibi background and two character dolls, normies will eat me alive.

AKAMAN

Yeah, I was quite exhausted by the end of season 1. Which is odd, considering that it's structure allowed me to add new content relatively easy. The problem was that it never felt finished. That being said starting season 02 is much easier than planning a whole new trainer game right after I just finished one. Decisions, decisions... Oh well, that is exactly why I decided to post this poll. Thank you for the input.

AKAMAN

I am pretty sure I will be getting back to it, since there are so many things I could add. But I think I need a little break first. Good to know that Gold Edition is in demand though.

AKAMAN

^_^

AKAMAN

What makes you think that? To be fair I didn't pay too much of a close attention but since QT has been released I have gained like 1000+ new Patrons.

AKAMAN

Noted. I will probably end up doing something like that. Probably.

AKAMAN

I hear you. And to tell you the truth I myself do sometime dream about creating something completely fresh. Only it would still be very VN-like project. I am not very interested in creating fighting system. I like to tell stories :)

AKAMAN

Always nice to meet a true man of culture among my followers.

AKAMAN

Yeah, I am a bit tired of QT by now, but I think eventually I will start to eel nastalgic and will be happy to return to it. I often feel like that about my old projects. I remember feeling extremely exhausted after I was done with SC34, but now I kind of miss working on it. Nastalgia is one hell of a drug.

AKAMAN

So basically you are saying I should do all three... Did I wrong you somehow? Why do you hate me so much?

AKAMAN

Yes, that was the general idea. Also community did add some of the stories in the form of the simulation room events.

AKAMAN

Cool. First few years of development I have received quite a few negative comments over SC. But it looks like the nature has finally headed and maybe the world is really for the season 02 :)

AKAMAN

Agreed. The only problem with SC that I personally have is that it never felt like my work is really done. With QT it took 3 years, but at least for a couple of days after the release it felt like I am finally done with it, with SC it's like never ending conveyer belt. That being said there are many good things about the whole SC setup that I like, including these with which I can add all sorts of content and character is too it. Also you could play dress up with the character dolls :)

AKAMAN

There are multiple reasons why it can't be done. I need to play it safe if I want to be able to continue to do what I do.

AKAMAN

much as i prefer jasmine stuff and want more SC i do feel we owe it to hermione to do a full plot with her/rest of school.

Hellfire1396

I'm just a big fan of Lara and Ashley. A trainer for one of those would be great, but I feel like with SC you have a great framework already and could bring more content easily. It also allows to easily bring in more girls, like Hornelia for example :P

Max

you convinced me to change my vote...not that it matters because gold trainer is the clear loser.

Drakeulous

SC is most interesting, as it has some fascinating central plot and many cool girls, with the spotlight constantly shifting between them.

Глеб

SC season 2. I remember you mentioned in an old post you tried to make it kind of a framework that you could more or less easily add more content. It could be interesting to allow the community to add short stories.

Marcelo Nery

Very interesting results, maybe a mix of the options is possible.

Lyk

Honestly good with whatever you decide but Reporter trainer sounds promising (April O'Neil and the fake news :) Stil Keep Queen Trainer gold edition on the cards (I'm sure you are sick of it for a while anyway and plenty of time people can give feedback that might give you ideas there)

Deonast

Ashelin Trainer for me

Arrowmage

Well, I wish you can do something new, brand new, not constrained by any of your former works. For example a fighting system, or a rogue-like structure. No offence, but for me, replaying a progression game goes a little boring... I know you are talented and can revive vintage stories to life, but trying new things is always exciting and promising. Just for your consideration and send my love to you❤️

stardust

I liked Witch Trainer very, very much and i will be overjoyed with another trainer game.Reporter Trainer or Lara Trainer or Witch Trainer 2 are my favoritie options.

Zeromus

This is definitely my vote. I enjoyed QT, but it absolutely does feel like an awesome framework with just barely enough meat. I feel like you could make it significantly better by just adding art to the existing framework.

Andrew

BTW, just some thoughts - probably, some part of patrons (including old ones) unsubscribed after QT release if they were not happy with it. Probably, their votes would shift poll towards option 3 or 2. I mean, yeah, they unsubscribed, so one may call them "traitors" or whatsoever, and ignore their opinion, but they still may be Aka fans, just unhappy with latest game, and will potentially return. Obviously, I don't know how significant their share was, so I just speculating that poll results will be slightly shifted without them.

Johny O

Tell how to raise her ratings... then watch the nightly news!

Dug

Yes, Reporter trainer!!! It would be dream come true!

Johny O

I love Jasmine, so I'm biased. But I think Queen Trainer is your best work by far. I'd love to see more of it

Vutaboss

Personally I think Queen Trainer gold edition might be too soon to at the moment, and I’m torn between the other 2…Season 2 of Star Channel looks very attractive (😅 though I am a little worried that the project will drain you physically just like last time you worked on it) But an April Oniel, Lara Croft, or an Ashelin Trainer has a promising Temptation I personally wouldn’t be able to resist (🤤 I always thought April Oniel was hot)

GamerLegend09

The granular corruption in Witch Trainer will always be my favorite, at least it felt very nuanced to me. A simpler setting with more emphasis on changing reactions and faces to repeated tasks. And witnessing your progress through the outfits from tame to ridiculously slutty was so much fun. I would have liked to play dress up doll for hours… well maybe I did.

Danny

This is so close to everything I would have tried to put into words. +1

Danny

And if you do Star Channel, it might be a fun art challenge to enable the girls to wear each others' costumes.

Ham

Personally, I'd like a status screen where I can see my strength level, culture level, and interaction scores with the various ladies.

Ham

This would indeed be useful.

Ham

If you need to take a break from QT I totally understand. I'd like to be able to level up on Atamansha and a status screen would be nice, but I'm voting Star Channel since I've been waiting even longer for Hermione to get a webcam show.

Ham

oof spoiled for choice is an understatement

ScytheKitten

Jessica-Fucking-Rabbit and Holli-Fucking-Would. Your portraial as Rose in Princess Trainer was very... educative. Creating some sort of old-school retro vibes would be interesting, considering the other characters from the universe in your style. Can be some sort of old New York style gangster adventure or such, Old Man going in time for whatever, testing the "I am not bad, I am just drawn that way" theory and such, would be instersting in my opinion when you would put your hands on it.

Doom

Damn you, I love Ashlyn, but she's already in SC so I had to choose that.

DeadMan

It is a really tough call - so many nice characters and games to chose from. Star Channel S02 makes sense, it would bring everybody something and the episodes were still well done. I wouldn't mind seeing where the Ashelyn + Lara and Captain story goes! In addition, I remember it as you being able to release every 2-3 months, think an approach like that would be good after QT.

Henrik

Definitely some hard decisions to be made here so I'll voice my thoughts here as well. Personally I would just like to see anything with Hermione in it as she's just my favorite character you've drawn.

MafiaTaco

I'm going with Queen Trainer Gold only because it seems like the least amount of work for AKABUR to accomplish right now. I figure, the art that would accompany an expanded relationship with Atamansha and maybe some chibi art with the new brothel employees and the employees of the various businesses around Agrabah.

J

April and Ashelyn all the way!

pro7h3us

Star Channel 2!!!

Mark Brady

I am very torn between QT: Gold and a project involving Hermione. While I loved QT, WT is peak of peaks so WT:2 would be a dream come true. I could settle for SC season 2 however, the first one was great and I was really invested in the story

Nepurin

Wouldnt mind something like a Teen Titans trainer. Where Robin assembles trains the girls.

Hivedragon

I would like a rick and morty trainer where morty is trying to train summer and his mom without rick the smartest being in the universe finding out.

I think two specific games would be best. 1) An April Trainer where you help her increase her viewership ratings. 2) An Ashelin trainer where you help her develop an incentive program for her troops. In either case.... it would also be wonderful to see the broadcasts or troop rewards in action... at least for the major ones. Put a TV in the room to click on? Of course a Star Channel sequel could put both of these questlines in.

Goblins curse expanded edition?????

Queen Trainer Gold for sure! All that it needs is more art. Everything else in the game is excellent, but without visuals for so much of the game just makes it way too difficult to complete the “educational” objective of the games. I thought that your favorite part of the whole process was the art, but it really feels like you made yourself suffer so much with the amount of coding and writing and a nice “break” for the next half year or more just working on art assets. That’s also a smaller thing than any of the others, so it would be better to get that out of the way and be fully ready to move on.

Hermione is drawn in a way that makes her the hottest character I've ever seen in any game.

I'm referring to Queen Trainer for the examples in the comment above. Also, I think that what really made WT fun and interesting for me was that it was a corruption story where most of the hotness (for me at least) came from seeing the girl's face and attitude to her retelling of her missions change over time, from serious, strict and dismissive, to eventually blushing and smiling slyly with a horny alutty attitude. Subtle stuff like a blushing smile could be enough to make it hot that she was telling about giving a hand job during class or whatever. I really don't mean to disparage your hard work and fantastic craftsmanship. I just don't want you to spread yourself too thin, if that makes sense.

Is that a game where we train Akabur to produce the games that we especially want to see?

John Hall

I'd love a short Ashelin trainer but I'm probably in the minority there. I think a Queen Trainer Gold is something better to come back to after another project.

Whilst I would enjoy a QT gold, I feel it is too soon. I voted SC 34, but wouldn't mind a short game as well

EventSpawn

Star Channel IMO have a lot unused potential. First iterations with Ashley and her daddy was something else! More interactions with ship itself would make deeper immersion. Also unlocking new dances next to outfits. Outfits in dance area. Sneak peak to rooms on ship. Man options are endless. Also thought about dialogues like in Hades, everytime you would sneak peak there would be new dialogue. I know. Lot of work ;)

Ночной Пёс 2, please 🌚 But seriously, I think switching back from "gamey game" QT to more straightforward story-focused VN - Star Channel 34 Season 2 - would be nice. Probably you had enough programming and complicated planning for the last 3 years, so maybe personally you would also want to have something with more streamlined development. And I just want to see what happens in ST34! That was the greatest cliffhanger in the history of video games! ST34 Season 2 doesn't have to be a linear VN, but something smaller in scope, something more focused than QT, closer to WT - which was a "game" with mechanics, stats, but focused and limited in scope - and I think that's what makes it many people's favorite.

SC34 season 2 definitely. The periodic release schedule, the multiple storylines, the variety of characters, the freedom to jump into any universe...I could go on. Season 1 has so much going for it

DMMelik

Situationally, Star Channel was such a good setup. Having the ladies be suddenly interviewed and broadcast lends itself to such good content. I'm not saying that you should do another Star Channel.... but anything that has that type of public-facing element is beautiful.... Should it even be a "trainer" game. April O'Neil being a reporter lends itself to this. So could Ashelin if it contains a regular "Address the troops" segment.

Dug

Would Heroine Trainer make the most sense? Almost like a Star Channel Trainer situation

David Robak

April 🤤

Dandalord

If you are going for a trainer, Let Lara be first choice. We have grown much hate because of the recent Tomb raider games. We must release that hatred in one way or another. We can train her all over the world. Otherwise Star Channel Season 2. Seriously you just put the Lara Trainer in my mind. Can't stop thinking about that. So much potential

MUPLUR

Tbh I'd like to see something smaller in scope again (like witch trainer) that can be higher in quality for the main path and maybe also mean you can focus on a shorter project and stress less. WT remains my favorite game of yours and I think it's in no small part that you have both the chibi gal and the detailed fullbody illustration on the screen during the scenes with the girl. Lots of scenes in these latest games are hot af and fun in the idea/concept/writing of the scenes but the visual reward aspect is kind of missing or lacking. Like, for example, it's awesome that there's all these exploration things you can do in Agrabah and the clubs and people you can encounter, but many if not most of them don't even have a simplified chibi version of the naughtiness going on, meaning you don't get the visual reward that could otherwise keep the interest going. We've got a bunch of poses for the girls and beautiful quest-end illustrations, but the quest progression that will lead there offers less in terms of visual reward and variety, meaning things can end up feeling grindy and repetitive quicker, despite you putting a lot of effort and work into the game.

What the hell, all of those are brilliant. Choosing one of them is impossible. I would love to see Ashelin trainer tho.

GodHasAbandonedUs

SC34 needs its conclusion / season 02. Oh what I'd give for that. BUT some kind of action trainer that pits Lara and Ashelin against each other would be epic in such a twisted way.

Zach

I would be SO happy if you did teen Titans. Raven is my absolute favorite

tanktreads

Hermione and April trainer. The gradual persuasion in witch trainer is excellent, just like the awkwardness of the april scenes in star channel. If that can be conbined with the lewdness of mating season then you have a perfect game.

Carsten

Akabur Trainer

Cold Popsicle

Anything with a focus on Lara would be A#1

Noah Wilson

I would to see a Lara Croft trainer.

Daring Warlock

I want more starchanel, since you get a bit of everything there

Jon Hansson

More hermione!

Hey, I love your work. Maybe you’ve answered that before, but do you consider using AI for your work ? I don’t mean to use it for 100%, but it could make you earn time for background images, icons, objects…

Vauxe

April O’Neil trainer be so damn good with the amount of stuff you could do with the news channel aspect of it.

James Shmo

I couldn't vote for anything but an April trainer!!! Especially after rereading your comics where the turtles blackmail her just with a picture and that Shredder and his gang are never that far away…

MrLazare

Ashelin is too good to pass up but a Tifa/Aerith trainer would be awesome

Zzzpin

If it makes you feel better we can't see the results until after voting. But yeah, Ashlin or a game focused on Iris.

Daniel

Would prefer star channel season 2 personally. If a standalone trainer, Lara every day. I'd like to see a peach trainer but not worth messing with Nintendo really

elmagio

April Trainer gets my vote!

Martin Whitmore

What features would QT Gold have?

Daring Warlock

It is time Akabur... I know you said you'd never touch it again. But it's time for Witch trainer gold.... Or Ashelin trainer 😂

Dragoon

Ashelin trainer would be kino. I liked how you wrote her character in star channel. A trainer game set in Jak and daxter would be awesome.

Kalashx39

Ever thought about someone from anime? Like sakura trainer with the homage genie and tsunade partner?

FanHarem

SC34 season 02. I love ya man, but for whatever reason QT just didn't do it for me like your other games..... not enough art, maybe. I'd love to see more SC though, I was enjoying that game quite a bit.
