Gwynn Concept Rev. (NSFW)

Hi,

something bothered me regarding Gwynn model and I revised it a bit before there are any scenes that need to be redone. 

The original body looked too scrawny and too young(-ish). Physique is a bit more sturdy now and imho a good counter-balance to the skinny Thief and the perfect Princess physique.

Daily Screenshot V0.5.1

Here is the final room in the tower, The Attic.

Room I made with blender, the furniture is from the awesome Medieval 3D Packages of Roguey (like most of the other furniture in this game)


It will enable some interactions with Nyx and Gwynn in the versions to come.

Daily Screenshot V0.5.1

Hi,

did the Nyx tavern dancing cutscene / renders today. Here is a screenshot. I did the series with 1920x resolution and scaled it down to game resolution of 1280x.

Sharpness should be a improved compared to the early art of the game, though I kept a bit of the grain to not have it appear too slick.

A fully nude version will also be in the game (I'll post in the All-Access section later).

Screenshot - Inventory

Did the toy scenes art with the Queen today and also revised the inventory, now scrollable with large capacity

No more inventory overflow problem for collectors out there, who hold every item they find... 

When testing it, I realized, that now there are almost 70 different items in the game. 

PS: If you look closely, you'll see 5 new items, which will appear in V0.5.1. ;)

Wrapping it up for today. 

Finished the game gallery feature and integrated it into the quest log screen.

Site Promotion

Hi everybody,

to expand this site further, I would like to focus promotion activities to channels, where the game attracted the most interest, aka patrons.

It would be great, if you let me know, where you found or learned about the game!

A few words regarding "Early Access..."

Hi,

after struggling for a bit with the automated Patreon "Early Access Feature", I found it can only be used to allow privileged access to items, which later go fully public.

As all the game stuff is NSFW it can never go public here, hence the "built-in" Early Access Feature is kind of moot.

For All-Access and VIP-Patrons, I will implement the Early Access for game releases manually, i.e.

  • VIP patrons with confirmed status will get links to pre-r...

Final Character Lineup

Spent some time today to clean up my files and 3D assets and completed the character sheet with the final models.

PS: For everyone reading this: There was an issue reported regarding the portal charging/opening in V0.5. Check the game release post, I added a patch file.

Concept Gwynn - Final

Changed the outfit to be more witchy and cartoony. Also the physique adjusted slightly. I think that'll be the final version.

Minigame Preview

On popular request in V0.5.1 there will be some progress regarding Irith's belt. Minigame preview attached. 

Successful completion will result in the belt being removed (temporarily)

Concept Art- Gwynn Version

As there were some comments on schoolgirl uniform i did a quick version, also slight face changes. Not sure it works... Something is still off imho

The witch hat definitely doesn't work. For that she'd need to be some Journeyman wizard and not at the Academy.

Will do some other parts of V0.5.1 and revisit the Gwynn topic by end of the week.

Character Concept - Gwynn

Before starting with the content of V0.5.1 next week, I reworked the new character (Gwynn).

First made a goth version, but this conflicts with the queen, so I went for a more normal style.

This is the revision I think that will be it. Feel free to comment.

Portal Game - Bookkeeping

Hi,

for everyone who wonders, what the odds in the portal game are, I attached an on-the-fly update to V0.5. 

Just drop the attached file into your "game" folder, confirm overwrite and you will have the "Wins / Losses" tally at the bottom of the screen. It counts individual gems.  

Has no impact on savegames etc. Once the file is in the game folder, encounters are tracked.

The example you see from my try-out (15 wins vs. 16 losses) is close to the statistical...

Concept Art - Misc

Did some test renders on a new machine today as I retired my laptop yesterday. Here is one of them. That's  a  zoom of the "Nyx waiting in your room" sprite used in V0.5. 

May be able to crank up image quality a bit now in future cutscenes... ;)

Before there's complaints that there is still graininess ;) 

Render was done CPU only in DAZ with Rosetta/Intel translation layer on my new Mac and took less than 60 sec and the fans on my machine didn't even ...

Concept Art V0.5.1

After battling only slimes in the dungeon levels, in V0.5.1 there will be a new level type with some new mobs. Access will be through a portal location you discover.

Behaviour and pathfinding of the new mobs will / should also be a bit more challenging.

Small test render with one of the guys I made in Blender just now...
