State of the Game - November 1, 2025

Hi there, everybody. Welcome back to another progress report. It's a short one, but progress nonetheless.

I've got the inner workings of the State Machine up and running. A citizen can now alternate between walking and idle states. Other states like eating, drinking, etc being added in the coming few days. Some of the animations initially weren't displaying correctly, and it took many a trial and error before finally finding a solution (setting the "Simplify" slider in Blender on the FBX export to "0"). A new food system is in the process as well, but I'll hold off on talking about that until it's a bit further along. I'm contemplating whether to release a mini build of just the character creator, or develop for a little longer until I get rudimentary feeding and gaining implemented. Let me know what you prefer.

Aside from that, expect some new art drops later today. I really wanna try to make this Patreon feel like a fuller experience in general (open to any other ideas as well). So I'm gonna try my darnedest to try to get out at least one new pic a week to you all.

That's pretty much it for this progress report. Sorry again for the short length. See you in the next one!
