Rack 2 / RackNET Update
Hey folks! I already mentioned this over on twitter, which is where I post news and updates more regularly, but this one's important so I wanted to make sure to post it here, too:
As part of development on Rack 2's MP update, RackNET's ability to sort custom characters by species is offline - at least temporarily. This is being done for boring tech...

Eyo! Just droppin' a sneak peek at a little side animation I'm working on. Check the attachments! <3
This'll be the climax of the Names comic.

Ey folks, checking in!
As a reminder: I don't really use patreon for regular news / updates very much these days, especially given their recent attitude towards adult content. (In fact, I suspect it's only a matter of time before they get hissy about Rack).
If you want more frequent updates, hit up the telegram channel or twitter. &...

Hey folks! Just a little check-in over here, for those who don't follow Telegram/Twitter/etc!
- The Spellbound v219 update is live, with the better mobile support, cheat mode, etc.
- Unity did end up rolling back the TOS changes for *existing* versions, which means I've downloaded the latest LTS build and I'm locking in there. In other words: thankfully, it won't be a threat to existing projects.
- I've been contacted about getting some of my comics published! I've been wor...

Eyo!
I'm sure some of you have heard some buzz about Unity (the game engine Rack 2 is using). If you haven't, the short story is that Unity is rolling out an extremely exploitative and ridiculous monetization model that's especially bad for indie developers of F2P games - and importantly, they intend to apply it retroactively, to games already made (or in development) using the old licensing model.
Needless to say, this blows, and everyone (including me) is extremely upse...

Hey folks, quick checkin!
First up - I've got a QOL update in the works for Spellbound, and there's a beta build available over at: https://fek.onl/spellbound/beta/
I've still got a few things in the works for it, but this build includes better touch support on mobile devices, a better konami mode / cheat mode (which is especially handy on mobile, or if you're uh... just trying to get to the good stuff...

Eyo! Been workin' on a little animation for the Mirror Image comic, and you guys get a sneak peek. <3
Still workin' on the games in the background, too - Rack 2 MP stuff and a fix/QOL update for Spellbound. But figured I'd drop this off while it's hot!
Enjoy! (WARNING: NSFW)

Eyo! It's been a bit; checking in on things!
Rack 2: Starting to set up some of the "pretty" parts of the MP update, like a proper teleporter room, connection UI, etc.
Personal Health: Adjusting to the CPAP has been very bizarre, but it seems to be helping. I'm finally getting some normal sleep for the first time in years, and it's had some pretty noticeable effects on my energy and memory. I've got several more followups with ENT over the next mo...

Hey folks!
Quick followup to my last post: I got the results back from my sleep study, and they confirmed that I have severe sleep apnea/hypoxia; bad enough that they're basically trying to rush me through the system. I'm on the road for getting some treatment / a CPAP as soon as possible. I'm really hoping it helps with energy levels; I'm sure it's no secret that I've been a bit of a zombie for a while.
Anyway - nothing serious or in need of major concern; I'm mostly just excited...

Hey folks! Had a couple people asking about R2/Spellbound, so here's another quick update!
Spellbound is back on the backburner so I can focus on Rack 2 again. It's very likely to see some small updates eventually, but I wanna put more energy into R2 and try to get the MP update out with this push. We'll see. After that, it's likely Spellbound will get an update to make Locket more interactive; that's one of the top requests!
On a small personal note - over the pandemic, I've had ...

Ey folks! This minigame / side project is nearly complete, and you guys get to check it out first! The three main additions since the initial demo are:
Music and Audio - I buckled and scope creeped a bit! The game now has music and audio.
New Spell: Project Image - The game now begins in the Spellbound lounge, where the gang is putting on a raunchy show for charity! But with a flick of the wrist, you can suddenly send the volunteers somewhere much...

Hey folks! Good news!
For a very long time, one of the most-requested features for Rack 2 has been the option to serve as a test subject. This has been the primary focus of the big multiplayer update I've been working on, but it involved two challenges: the networking side, and the teledildonics side.
Most of what I've been focusing on over the pandemic has been the networking stuff, but this month, I took some time to start digging into teledildonics. I grabbed some of the toys y...

Hey folks!
The R2MP update is still not quite ready for testing, but I've taken the past couple of weeks to work on a little side project to avoid burnout. If you're into exhibitionism / enm / cfnm / cmnm, take a gander!

Hey folks, just checking in!
Hope y'all had some wonderful holidays - I was able to spend a little time with family, thankfully, but also ended up getting hit by Omicron for a week or two. Even with the shots, it knocked me out real solid for a while, but I'm thankfully recovering smoothly and getting back into the swing of things.
The MP update is still in the works, and still not ready for playtesting, but I still wanted to check in and confirm that the 'rona didn't get me!

Ey folks!
While we're still waitin' on the Rack 2 MP stuff to be ready for playtesting, I figured I'd swing by and post a sneak peek at some animations I've been doodling on the side. These are gonna be used for the finale of the Everybody Wants to Be a Cat comic, which has been my backburner / personal blowing-off-steam project for a couple years now. Since it's finally wrapping up, I figured it should end it with a bang - or seven!

Hey folks! It's been a while, and I wanted to check in! I'm still alive, and still working on the big multiplayer update. Nothing playable yet, but I'm getting to the point where some of the technical details are out of the way and I'm actually able to start experimenting with "okay, how is this actually going to WORK?" and I wanted to get a little feedback from y'all.
If you could, run through this list and check anything that applies to you!

Ey folks! Just checkin' in; I'm trying to get better about doing it at least once a month or so. Those of you who've been following a while know that it's never been my strong suit.
My current focus, as mentioned with all the Flash EOL conversion posts, is back on Rack 2! I've been working on a feature that I've been keeping secret up til now, because I don't like getting folks' hopes up on something that I'm not sure I'm going to be able to deliver. And even still, there are ...

And with that, the last of my old Flash games has been properly ported to downloadable/Android formats, and I'm back on Rack 2. Thanks for your patience, everyone. <3

Ey folks!
With Flash's official EOL finally upon us, I've been scrambling to get all of my old games ported over to other formats. I took that opportunity to do a content update for Rack 1, and I'm happy to say that Rack v1.2.0 is ready to go!
Here's what's new:
- First and foremost, the game is now available in several downloadable formats: Windows EXE, Mac APP, AIR for Windows, AIR for Mac, SWF for offline flash players and emulators, and - wait for it... APK for Android! ...

I had hoped to have the actual update done by the end of the month, but as seems to be the trend this year, I ran into some issues. Either way, I wanted to keep y'all posted.
The next update will be primarily focused on my flash games: Rack 1, Bedplay, and Midnight Fireworks. Specifically, focused on preparing them for Flash's scheduled end-of-life, which happens in a little under 60 days. The update will include cleaned up downloadable and mobile versions for each game, and I'm also lo...

The v0.2.12 update focuses on electrostimulation, a new pain system, interaction reticles, and some quality-of-life updates
Changelog:
- The pain system has been entirely overhauled. All pain-causing interactions have been rebalanced/polished. The realtime HUD now indicates how much pain a subject is currently experiencing, as well as that subject's "maximum pain threshold" - the point at which their sexual experience is ruined. As you might expect, subjects who e...

Hey folks! Realizing that it's been a while since an update, just doing another quick check in. Things have been crazy, and I hope y'all are staying safe and well out there.
I've been getting over some sort of sickness. The doc says it's probably not C19, but some form of bronchitis or infection. Test results should be back soon, then I'll know for sure.
Either way, I'm still alive and kicking (and coughing, mostly).
Stay safe! <3

Just a quick status update, because someone pointed out it's been a long while!
I'm still alive, and still workin'. Not fast enough, as always, but I'm not dead.
Thankfully, not C19 positive, but I've got two family members in nursing and one who got quarantined, which has been weird and a little scary. We've also had to make some changes with the housing situation. It's been busy and hectic. But I'm still chippin' away.

Changelog:
- This build is mostly focused on polishing the interaction reticles for all of the game's body-on-body interactions: making sure they're positioned properly over the interaction point, that they adjust as expected based on the subject's position and the camera angle, and that the player's movements line up with their input pattern.
- Feedback is now displayed intermittently while interacting with a subject via particle effects, so you don't need to kee...

Ey folks, just checking in!
The next build is coming along, and I hope to have it out before leaving on a short trip mid-February. In this build, I've finished refining the pleasure and arousal values for all body-on-body interactions (and fixed a few that were off, thanks to your reports!), and I've started running down the list and cleaning up reticle positioning and input bounds. In other words, I'm polishing the interaction interface so that the mouse movements feel natural when tou...

The full release of the earlier development builds (plus a little more)!
Changelog:
- At long last, I'm beginning to hammer out the subject sensitivity, endurance, and orgasm numbers. 63 of the game's interactions should now behave roughly as intended in terms of getting the subject (and the player!) off - check the spreadsheet to see which ones are still being worked on: 2019-12-07 11:10:13 +0000 UTC
