Hi,
here is an image I couldn't pass by...
Turned out reasonably well imho...
Pumpkin and the knife I made in Blender.
Will post a 4K Version in VIP & Upper Tier Section too as soon as I have rendered it...

as transfer of goods and items to the upcoming V1.10 is on the horizon I made a small patch to V1.00.

Hi,
the BETA test is completed with all major items addressed and fixed. More than 20 issues were found and fixed.
Special thanks to Jeff2PointOh, Sean MacDonald, bacchusplateau, Damian Crowe, Sadik, Oniros, kicks6666, ID, mrdennings and everyone who submitted bugs, suggestions and hints to improve the game (and Vandour for the great QuThor Station model)!
Tomorrow I'll do the Walkthrough and Release Notes.

Hi,
I played around a bit with human figures and renders in Blender today. This figure was made based on a figure generator tool I bought.
I sculpted the face details (nose, jaw, cheeks, expression...) and some body details afterwards.
The render engine of Blender is a 1000 times better than DAZ with easy lighting, nice post processing quick setup and fully supports my hardware on top. Not to mention that animations are a breeze in Blender.
I wish I had migrated my c...

Hi,
the BETA is running since yesterday.
Game continuation from new Day95 point was mostly fine but a number of issues in Early Game were detected.
Most issues are fixed already and BETA2 is up!
Thanks to all Beta testers for the quick feedback!

Hi,
while wrapping up the BETA integration testing I decided to make a last minute addition. BB-2 being the experienced perv that he is, will now think about suitable actions during disciplining which make up possible combos...
The combos all exist but make not always sense in a specific situation, so judgement is up to you!
In the screen shot you can see that the initial action (hand) could be continued with heart or crop, both can still complete to a combo...
Makes it l...

Hi,
today I have completed testing the V1.10 BETA. No major issues should be left (but I assume the testers will find them anyway...)
On a side note, I have also integrated all the new audio. You should be able to click on the audio header and listen to the new Intro. There are custom space ambient tracks, battle tracks, the cantina and spacebar audio has been redone and there is an intro...

Hi,
today I finished the Code for V1.10 BETA! Only one Galaxina image to render then the art is also done.
Won't post any more renders to not spoiler it... ;)
BETA on 20th, VIP Release on 25th.
A VIP Poll on who you would like to see next after Verity on the Dance Stage will follow.

Hi,
Good News!
I have successfully integrated the content of the main V1.10 Quest just now!
This quest - in the end - will enable you to hire Dr. Moira as a new and much requested Crew Member. That quest was was a lot of work, encompassing a full new Star System, New Character, 2 new Ship Locations, ...
With that quest most of the work is done and in the next two days I'll render out the missing anims and integrate and test some smaller stuff.

Today I wrote all the main quest (Moira) dialogue and quest database code which was a ton of work. Testing and some remaining triggers for that large quest will be done tomorrow.
To relax, I coded a QoL item that was requested quite a few times by testers and lately also added by a modder on F95: Dedicated shell slots (see screenshot)
It has the advantage that only shells pop up if you click on the first (shell) slot and not a zillion other parts. And you gain one more effective...
Hi,
created the stage scene in the Mess Room today and while doing so made a bunch of Verity Pole Dance Renders...
Thinking about making it a mini-game where you meet her in the Mess Room, replicate a few drinks for her and if the sequence of drinks is right she'll get in the mood to show of dancing.
I'll make a bunch of alternate poses so it stays interesting and maybe there is some progression.
Also, there'll be a VIP Poll shortly about who is going to be the next (...
Hi,
while integrating Verity into the game I came to the conclusion that some workout area would be nice on the ship. As the previous owner was somewhat eccentric, the workout is a dance platform in the mess room. :)
Also helps with some enticing scenes and if a crew member feels like it after having a drink dancing is not off the table...

Hi,
while docked in Iltari you can (if you did the Verity Quest and rescued her) invite Verity over and give her a "Tour" of the ship :)
Verity will wait for you in the mess room if you contact her while landed. Play your dialogue choices right and you get a proper ending :)

Hi,
I noticed that Patreon a few days ago added to every Creator a free, publicly available (SFW-Only) tier. It has the advantage that you can subscribe to a creator and watch the public (SWF) content and decide whether to upgrade to a paid tier based on what you see
I'll occasionally post concepts like this (Dr. Moira, coming in V1.10 end of the month) in the publicly accessible area of the Site. You can also see the latest release plans pinned in the 2023-10-13 13:48:19 +0000 UTC View Post

Hi,
as I have received a few questions as to the 3 Zealots + Precursor Core combo level here is a help video that shows the strategy. There is a bit of luck to it as you need successful AOE multiple hits for the first two zealots but it works out 50% of the time.
TLDR:

Hi,
while starting on the Galaxina Scene I finally reworked the model. I had not been happy with the hair colors, the texturing and the makeup of the old model and I redid all that and did some more adjustments.
Finally got the hair to be proper blonde and also a better makeup(similar to Laureline from the Luc Besson movie a while ago).
Way better imho.

Hi,
no major problem since releasing 1.10 DEV for testing. Thanks to everyone submitting found issues so far!
I've been working on the Main quest script, a few assets and Seraphine's content a bit. As she is getting bored with nothing to do (see test render) she gets the new shopping task assigned.
Also I decided at least to have the interior of Qu'Thor Station as part if the Medical Quest / Moira's quest, so I made that today as well.

Hi,
today I added the last major element for the 1.10 DEV version, the fully functional Voron Hyperdrive and the Modular gate on the Player base.
Using Voron Beacons (equipped into the Voron Hyperdrive, see screenshots) you can jump from any Space Loc directly into the Base (if you have purchased the Private Gate) _and_ back!
Will be testing DEV version a bit more today and probably posting it later today into the Beta channel.

Hi,
as Seraphine felt off for some patrons, I had a VIP poll on her character.
It seems the bratty character worked better in the Tower setting with her as the principal, but aboard the ship it doesn't really work as continuous crew member.
As a result I will rework her earlier qu...

Hi,
today I finished a new Star System necessary for the V1.10 main Quest: Qu'Thor (Drengarian). You need to help the System to combat a deadly virus and enlist the help of a Medical Researcher (you may guess who...).
Special thanks to Vandour for custom designing Qu'Thor Space Station for the game, which looks awesome (see landing approach Screenshot", have a look at it fullscreen)!
As to V1.00 Official, I finished packaging it and will release it later today. Thanks for al...

Hi,
today I implemented a new combat mechanics, area denial mines. They are deployed around your ship, deployment takes up one AP and on collision they cause as much damage as a photon torpedo (w/o AOE), effectively taking out seekers in one hit.
I found them very convenient tactically, as you deploy one set of mines and, if positioned correctly, you can maneuver around a bit to line up the real mobs without having to worry about the seekers, which get taken out by the mines.

Hi,
today I've done the character sprite for Dr. Moira and the two locations that go with it ( Crew 2, Med Bay). Med Bay will be on Deck 3 on the Hallway Right. Also I noted that I never posted the Voron version of her outside of the VIP Poll, so here you go :).
As to V1.00 Official Release I am still analyzing two stubborn quest purge issues which are not blocking but annoying. Think I need some selective playthroughs to isolate the issue.

Hi,
Short update on EA2
Two gameplay issues and a bunch of dialogue editorial issues submitted so far. Already fixed in V1.00 Official Release Candidate Code (Plan: 06.10).
Outlook V1.10
I selected the primary features for V1.10. This release will be a stabilizing release, so no massive mechanics changes, rather a focus on NSFW and story.
Hi,
today I started the code baseline for V1.10. After planning the main features I'll publish a release plan. Feedback for Early access 2 seems good so far (no major issues) so official Release 1.00 on 06.10. will be OK I think.
Also, as the red-haired Doctor seems to be quite popular, I decided to bring her in with V1.10 already. That means I need a sickbay as well. I made the design today (see screenshot).
VIP Poll Result for the doctor was overwhelmingly clear
