The club is...
Added 2024-08-04 15:30:03 +0000 UTCNot the best of weeks in terms of progress :(. I have some trouble with the lighting in the club and the duration of the render time. I think I am splitting the club in 3 areas: Dancefloor, lounge and fun.
Fun being something like this:
Early artwork: I call it the blood tank. Problem again: Water+Lights=Long ass render time. Also lots of reflections and I feel like not all of them are needed. Also bubbles are still white instead of red...
The lounge area is what I am unsure of. It should be an area where the vampires hang out with their subs and suck some blood. Here is an early artwork but I will probably change it, I am not really satisfied with it...
The dimmed lights look pretty cool, though...
If you have an idea on what should be in the vampire club or what has to happen in there, let me know! I can still add 1-2 scenes if I make the places a bit more render time efficient!
Have a nice sunday and stay kinky! :)

2024-08-12 17:39:20 +0000 UTCThis scene in your game would be quite a tribute to Tarantino's outstanding work and to Salma Hayek's most outstanding role ever.
Frank Kuschmann
2024-08-06 18:25:20 +0000 UTCExactly, right after that arousing scene with Quentin Tarantino, when she announced him to become her slave.

2024-08-06 18:19:19 +0000 UTCha! i remember the times when you could switch in older games for a OpenGL option. Usually it crashed the game :D
Darktoz
2024-08-05 17:22:09 +0000 UTCno, all good! it is great that you provide feedback!
Darktoz
2024-08-05 17:21:11 +0000 UTCThe dark ambient is good but the choice of what color are in the club could be change, that's what I meant. Sorry if the word tone wasn't the right one.

2024-08-05 17:18:19 +0000 UTCIn 1990, I took a class at SGI in Sunnyvale on what was to become the home of Google. They provided a flying Sim with us adding objects. I added a cone with a texture mapping of the Mandelbrot set fractal on it. So when I flew through a plain cube - no prob. But flying through my cone and it ground to a halt. Our computers were the same as a group of Berlin Germany artists and a compsci genius built Google Earth before Google cloned it. It was a brilliant invention. Netflix made a three part series but I only saw the first episode on how it was made. Yes, I used to program in GL which today is Open GL. (Graphics Language was made by Silicon Graphics Inc which was a spinoff of Sun which is now Oracle.) My comment explains why it presumably takes a while to render. But also those workstations have the computing power of this cell phone. So yes, the good old days really weren't.

Darktoz
2024-08-05 16:39:17 +0000 UTCit's not that much work tbh honest, most assets come reflective out of the box, you just have to fine tune the surfaces and the lighting in order to make it fit your project
Darktoz
2024-08-05 16:39:02 +0000 UTCinteresting, but wouldn't that make the mc a kind of strong, dominating character for a while?
Darktoz
2024-08-05 16:38:05 +0000 UTCi think the tone, the dark ambient will stay. but i agree that at least the lounge area needs to be different, i will come up with something better
Darktoz
2024-08-05 16:37:23 +0000 UTCyes, i love that scene as well. especially when she's transformed :D
Darktoz
2024-08-05 16:36:12 +0000 UTCThank you for your tireless work for the sake of us, even if it hasn't been a successful week like you wanted! I know I've mentioned it before but that scene is literally burned into my mind ever since I watched that overpowering vampire movie "From Dusk Till Dawn". I mean of course the most arousing scene in the whole movie when Salma Hayek let Quentin Tarantino drink booze from her toes and pushed her foot at his mouth at the end.

2024-08-05 07:56:47 +0000 UTCDrinking a vampires own blood in vampires the masquerade is also portrayed as making humans feel really good so perhaps that could be an idea?
Lost Soul
2024-08-05 01:10:02 +0000 UTCOr on the dance floor your could have the protagonist be hired a stripper. His payment being that he gets unlocked for his duration working. His work place being a set of stairs that lead up to a raised platform with a stripper pole, where he has to dance. Maybe even have it be like in that one blade scene when blood sprays down on top of him, and the vampires then eventually come up the stairs and lick the blood offf of his body. Having like five or seven sexy vampires licking ever inch of your body at once while taunting or teaseing you sound pretty hot to me lol.
Lost Soul
2024-08-05 01:01:32 +0000 UTCOkay so what I am thinking perhaps for the lounge area as well as it being a hang out place you could have subs like either tied to the tables , and used as chairs, and the vampires could just chill and have conversations while nonchalantly playing with or fucking the subs bodies or occasionally taking bites to get blood. Maybe it could be sort of be a restaurant type deal where the vampires eat food off of a humans body like one of those naked Japanese sushi places. I know vampires need to drink blood to live but potential they can still eat food for the taste even if it doesnβt provide them with any sustenance. Perhaps you could even make the lounge into a semi a restaurant deal with waiters and stuff. Maybe our protagonist could even take a sort of job offer to be a table or seat with the reward being he gets unlocked during his time on the job, which means potentially one of the vampires would play with his cock? Perhaps this could spin off into the protagonist getting regular a job at the club any growing closer to those who run the place!

2024-08-05 00:39:22 +0000 UTCI'm with the others that the club at the moment doesn't feel like a vampire club, it need more "Gothic" stuff and another tone.
Francois Champagne
2024-08-05 00:38:25 +0000 UTCI remember one of those cw vampire shows had a vampire club with a drug that made you briefly "feel" what it was like to be a vamp.

2024-08-04 23:50:39 +0000 UTCoh, great , the downtown will be terrific :D
elchacal51
2024-08-04 22:53:57 +0000 UTCI'm amazed at all those reflected surfaces. Quite a work of art.
gg
2024-08-04 21:16:21 +0000 UTCTo be honest, I'm not that interested in vampires. It's clear to me who is the most anticipated :)
Ivan Shishkov
2024-08-04 21:00:20 +0000 UTCOk so the main theme needs to be obviously red... we need red LED lights, red carpets, red drapes, maybe fountains of blood, maybe a blood Jacuzzi in some VIP area, coffins, upside down crosses, lots of decorations like skulls, brass candle holders, anything gothic themed, etc... Obviously i imagine most of these things are very taxing to produce, but employing just a few of these or putting them in separate areas might work in the end. Like could you really have a vampire themed lair/club without coffins in it? Hell you can play a lot with that idea alone as in thats where they store their "food", you can make it a whole bad end by itself, or the MC wanders around an area he shouldnt opens a coffin and finds a vampire sleeping in there that doesnt want to be disturbed... There are actual vampire themed clubs around you can google them to see how they look, i know there is one in Stockholm, one in Tokyo, etc... might give you some inspiration.
NeroZee
2024-08-04 20:48:27 +0000 UTCwell the main thing is still missing which are the vampires themselves. I agree with the lounge area needing a rework, though. so what kind of lounge area would scream "vampire" instead?
Darktoz
2024-08-04 19:31:38 +0000 UTCthx for the input, i think instead of tinting the woodwork it might be better to rework the area and make something new/else instead. I like the blood idea but that sounds like a bad ending because otherwise the mc would need an option to clean himself entirely again
Darktoz
2024-08-04 19:30:12 +0000 UTCOk it works. No matter how long it takes. I can't wait to play it. Have you found translators in French and other languages for the game?
Noah
2024-08-04 19:28:14 +0000 UTCyes, i think the lounge needs an entire rework
Darktoz
2024-08-04 19:27:21 +0000 UTCthx, some of your ideas already happen in downtown but not specifically in the club :)
Darktoz

2024-08-04 19:24:57 +0000 UTCi am still not sure about a release date and when exactly but your guess is pretty good ngl ;)
Darktoz
2024-08-04 19:24:47 +0000 UTCthx
Darktoz
2024-08-04 19:24:06 +0000 UTCYes vampires are split between the high class who would do the masquerade balls with a more precise form of sadism and more refined things and the lower class who love their blood orgies and animalistic sadism. I can only assume that one day we would also see Belletrix's family manor and have the other side of vampire society but I am not sure.
Jack_Just_Jack
2024-08-04 19:09:44 +0000 UTCHmm it doesnt really give off the vibes of a vampire club from these previews at least. I feel like there should be more vampire themed stuff throughout it. As someone already mentioned bamboo trees dont really scream vampire to me. But i am sure you will make it work in the end. Just as long as there are plenty of opportunities for some vamps to feed on me i am all good.
NeroZee
2024-08-04 18:30:22 +0000 UTCThe bamboo and Asian-inspired lounge feels like an odd choice for a vampire club. I would have imagined it looking more cathedral-inspired and full of red neon lights, rococo furniture in black and gold, etc. For activities maybe there could be a more feral/carnal area with things like the blood rave scene from Blade, scratching words/names into their victims, sexual feeding frenzies/orgies, etc. and then an area with more classy activities, masquerade masks, body worship, drinking cum/blood from wine glasses, etc.

2024-08-04 18:20:38 +0000 UTCLooks great. Incredible in the effort to make the reflections work properly that most don't put in so much effort. I like the splitting but I have no idea what fun means I could guess that it might have something to do with a Carey/Wednesday style raining blood on the dancefloor but I am doubtful as that would take ages to render. The lounge area looks amazing and very nice and dimmed but if I was to suggest anything maybe having the Bamboo tinted slightly red and brown and maybe say it is dried stained blood from previous vampiric nights of debortuary and in closer shots have the lampshades covered in a small amount of dried blood. For scene ideas I think use of vampires powers like hypnotic eyes would be interesting to make some more trippy scenes of falling deeper and deeper under her control and soul bonding(A bit like Hotel Transylvania). Maybe you could have a bad ending where you leave with a group of young vampires who are thirsty and to go to a wood party before they suddenly turn and start to hunt you though the forest causing a really fun horror chase sequence ending with you getting drained completely. Another thing you mentioned before was that a large amount of the Iron Maidens where vampires and maybe they take time off in the vampire nightclub so due to their sadistic nature I think they may like their blood collected in a different way maybe by whipping you and licking the blood off your back. Generally more vampiric bdsm scenes maybe with a group of Iron Maidens is probably a good idea that would go down well with everyone. Another fun thing would be to use the vampires other traits such as sharp claws for scratching scenes and other things of that sort. Also as it looks like you might get covered in blood in the Fun room you could walk though the club covered getting heckled and attacked by vampires who try to lick it off of you and take a bite. Great work as always I hope the next day in Blackmore takes us to more interesting places like this day and not just the tower like what happened the last few days. Maybe do the desert or the mansion and focus on the occult either way I can't wait to play day 4!

2024-08-04 16:54:47 +0000 UTCsome ideas , maybe one you'd like into it : The club must be their cattlepark for blood and service so : 1) deshumanized guys kind of "nailed" on the wall , outstrenched hands so vampires can put their glasses on it ? 2) lot of footrest and footlicker leashed pets while vampires chatting each others at vip tables ? 3) Blood of vampire could be also a drug : slaves begging for it to bliss , and in the meantime totally under her hypnotized control and being at her mercy of ? Or their piss contains the drug ? 4) milk machines of blood relied on living slaves while vampires making as an US drink contest ? also a kind of "blood-pong" where glasses are replaced by slave's mouth into a game table ? 5) pegging holes wall in the toilet ? 6) milking semen on dick so much that blood come with and vampires find it tasty ? 7) a bad end where we finish as the object of their cruelty forever in the club ? don't know if the ideas are in the spirit you have for the V. Club , but some ideas coming now in my mind
elchacal51
2024-08-04 16:23:12 +0000 UTCLooks good, but by scenes do you mean something involving the protagonist? Or something that he would be witnessing?
Lost Soul
2024-08-04 16:07:25 +0000 UTCI'm so excited to play the next update. How soon do you think the update will be ready?. Mid September?. and keep up the great work.
