The Allure of Wanton Cove: Progress Report.

Got some stuff to share on this front today.

Took me about six hours, but I wrote a roughly 3k word scene for Wanton Cove today.   I'm pretty sure it is one of the darkest scenes I've ever written.  The scene can play out five different ways depending on your current Taint and Depravity levels.  Also wrote a couple of new entries in the "People" section of your "Case Notes" to include Lady Anne and her husband.

Received an update pic from our Wan...

Let me introduce our artists (And a short update):

In no particular order, I wanted to introduce the artists who have joined Aftermath Team to help us with the art for Inheritance.

This artist is taking the lead on background art for the game, though they will also be helping out with foreground art from time to time.

Wanton Cove AND Inheritance WIP Art!

Got some WIP art related to Wanton Cove just a little bit ago.  I've asked for some small modifications (Lips look a bit off, so I asked that those be redone a bit, plus a couple of other minor things that were brought up.)

Tanya WIP art:

Left side is going to become the bust pic for Tanya in the game, the Right side one is going to be related to one of the naughty scenes.

General Update

The Allure of Wanton Cove:

-Spent about an hour trying to run down that last combat related bug today.  Fixed it, only to have another crop up in its place.  I sent out a message to some of the people who help out with the game and stepped away from it for a bit.  Rfpnj was able to isolate the problem so I could fix it (And since I'm pretty sure he follows me here, I'll add: You're awesome!  And don't you ever forget it!)

-Started going over my notes for the next upda...

Creator Shout Out! ThaumX

Its been a while since I've done a Creator Shout Out!  and I wanted to remedy that.  

Today, I bring to you ThaumX.  They are a creator that I stumbled across only recently.  Their current project is named Accidental Woman, and while its still very early in development, its already a gem in its own right.

For those of you who are familiar with SplendidOstrich's NewLife, the t...

Sample Art for Inheritance

I told my $5 Patrons that I was planning to share a couple pieces of art with the public just for an excuse to show it off a bit.  Most of it is being reserved for Patrons though.

As some of you may already know, I just brought three artists on board to help out with Inheritance.  I asked each of them to look at the original cover art, then give some sample art based on how they see it.  Now that I've got a bit of art, we're discussing what art style(s) will work best...

Inheritance Concept Art

Got a couple of sketches from one of the other artists today.  As we're kind of exploring each artists strengths and weaknesses, this is kind of their homework assignment at the moment.  The idea is to let each of them present some art related to how they see the setting, then decide what would work best.  

I have to admit, I really love the way this artists does the eyes, and some of the detail work on the clothing gives me some ideas for the future!

The Allure of Wanton Cove .90b Public

 Alright, just a quick fix.  I've tested it repeatedly, and it looks like the Lady Anne bug is FINALLY resolved.

Be sure to let me know if you stumble across anything else that is not quite right.  If its game breaking in some way, I'll get to work on it as soon as I am able.  If not then it will appear in the next major build.

Inheritance Sample Sketches and early art!

As you all probably know, I've been talking with three artists about doing art for Inheritance.  Yesterday, I set them about the task of doing some sample art related to the title screen of the game, and I'm starting to get some art and sketches from them now.

I'll share a few of them with you now!

This first image is the CURRENT title image.  I'm posting it again for contrast.  While I love this image, we plan to redo the cover image for the sake of ...

Quick Update

Someone reported this morning that some of my bug fixes didn't take the way I had expected.  As such, that has become my priority for today.  

I'll be getting to work on Wanton Cove in an hour or two and intend to stick with it until the reported issues have been resolved.

The Allure of Wanton Cove .90a Public

Alright, spent a great deal of time working through the bugs reported since yesterday's release.  This should resolve the bugs related to both combat and Lady Anne, as well as a hand full of smaller issues.


Known issues:
-Money bug at end of combat.  Still have not found the source of this problem, but will be looking into it in more detail tomorrow.
-Background image moving slower than scrolling in some browsers.  I was offered a possible solution to thi...

Progress Report.

Don't have a fix build for Wanton Cove ready just yet, but I'm making good progress.  I've worked through the worst of the items on my list. I have one more issue to look into, and I want to tweak combat again.

I'm taking a short break right now, then I'll come back to this.  My hope is that I'll have the last two items checked off of my list with another hour's work, then get an update then get an fix out either late tonight or early tomorrow.

On the Inheritance fro...

Exciting news!

I'll start with the more exciting piece of news:

I reached out the other night looking for artists who might be willing to work on Inheritance full time.  I received three replies, and all are talented artists who seem authentically interested in participating in the project.  We've been in talks the last couple of days about details and its looking increasingly likely that they're going to make a good team moving forward.  I've got them doing a little art right now so we can us...

The Allure of Wanton Cove .90 Public Build

New build is ready to go.  Hope that you all enjoy it! 

Full Changelog. .90

-The usual minor fixes.  Dropped everything up to the arrival in Wanton Cove into a spell/grammar checker and made some fixes/adjustments where needed.  Also worked through everything but the cheat menu associated with the sidebar.  Elsewhere in the story, if I saw it, it got fixed. 

-Added a new cheat option for Mutation that does +/-2 and can serve to sh...

The Allure of Wanton Cove .90 Patreon Build

New build for all of you wonderful Patrons who help make this all possible!

The Cheat Menu has some new options for Patrons. It is not only a new way to gain Mutation a bit faster for those of you inclined to do so, but there has been a completely new set of scenes written for Mutation related transformations when you increase the stat at a faster rate like that.  They are the same scenes that would appear in the loss scenarios for the Deep Ones.

Hope you all enjoy the ne...

General Update

Lets start with Wanton Cove today.

Been skimming over some code in the game today, but having not received any further bug reports I'm green lighting it for release.  I'll be releasing version .90 of Wanton Cove tomorrow as I should have plenty of time to make the release, AND should have quite a bit of time to address anything that comes up in the aftermath of the release.

With the staggering amount of interest in Inheritance, I'm almost frothing at the mouth wanting to get started...

The Allure of Wanton Cove: TEST 3

Got (hopefully) the last test build before the public release of the game.  

Fixed:

-The bug related to Lady Anne should be fixed.

-No link when entering combat under certain circumstances should be fixed.

-MAJOR rework of the combat intros which should resolve the other combat issues reported.  This also streamlined the code and removed some redundant text which ultimately slimmed the game by a couple thousand words. (Still leaves us with 27k more than t...

Inheritance

Got a new build for all of you.

Some notes:

-This build includes a major rebuild of the movement system in the game.

-This build includes multiple spelling and grammar fixes.

-This build does NOT include any significant new content.

For those of you who have played the last version of the game and want another look or to play test, I hope you enjoy the gam...

The Allure of Wanton Cove: Tanya Sketches

Received this bit of concept art from Silverjile earlier today and wanted to share it with all of you.  The first image is for the profile image in the case notes.  The second is a concept piece for one of Tanya's naughty scene.

Silverjile's Site:

http://www.hentai-foundry.com/user/Silv...

General Update:

Two hours of code later, I think I've resolved the combat related bugs.  Turned what I did over to a couple of friends, then I plan to look it over again tomorrow evening.

The plan right now is to fix anything found between now and then, then throw together a test build tomorrow with the intent to release publicly on Thursday.

Received a concept sketch from Silverjile earlier today, will be sharing that in a little while with $5 Patrons.

Got a bit of work done on Inheritance l...

General Progress Report

Don't have as much to report as I would have liked, but I wanted to share all the same.

I received a bug report for several issues related to Wanton Cove.  A couple of them had already been addressed, a couple were easy fixes.  But the others were a code heavy issue that I simply didn't have the patience to run down this evening.  On the other hand, once I am able to track it down in one place, it should only take moments to run down the problem in the other places it appears. 2017-08-14 04:02:59 +0000 UTC View Post

General Update

The Allure of Wanton Cove:  Had a bug reported with the most recent Wanton Cove test build.  I think its fixed, but I'm waiting for a little more information (or a chance to play test it a few times) before I declare it fixed.  Will likely drop one last test build on testers tomorrow once I'm more sure its been resolved.

Inheritance:  Grayelf sent me an updated bit of code last night.  Going to be diving into that shortly.  Basically, they rebuilt the m...

The Allure of Wanton Cove .90 TEST2

As promised, an update to the TEST build.  This fixes the issue that was preventing the followup content for Lady Anne.  This also increases the difficulty of combat just a little bit.

Other than that, the build is mostly the same as the previous build (Some minor other things were dealt with, but mostly it was just spelling issues.)

There is a shortcut in the cheat menu for combat that will take you to each of the scenes that include combat.  This will make it ...

The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

So, I wanted to share with all of you what has been going on the last couple of days.

Since releasing the test build of the game, I've received a single bug report (Error with Lady Anne's new content.  Was causing the intro scene to play normally, but the followups were never triggering because of it.)  It was an incredibly easy fix.  From the time I saw the report to the time it was fixed was literally less than three minutes.

Other than that, nothing has been reported. &...

The Allure of Wanton Cove TEST Build

New test build.  The bulk of the new content is related to combat.  

What I would like you all to check out: 

-I added a cheat option to the cheat menu that can take you to any of  the random fights currently in the game.  

-I had a couple of errors crop  up in the first page of combat, I think I found and fixed them, but I  didn't have time for a through testing, so its likely there are  lingering issues.

-Did a completely...

The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

Got off to an early start today with all of this (Surprisingly, I usually have 5-20 messages related to my various projects every morning and it usually takes a couple of hours minimum to reply to everything.  Today I had two, and both were quick replies.) and jumped in with both feet.  Cranked out about 7k words of content (Bringing us up to about 29k for the upcoming release, and 269k total for the game) today, finishing up the new combat scenes.  I intend to spend a couple of d...

The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

So, today hasn't gone quite the way I had planned.  This morning was all shot to hell, and this afternoon isn't too far behind.  That said, I just crammed in a three hour block of work to complete the new TF scenes and plugging them into the game.  That's the biggest hurdle towards the next update of the game.  Also got the new combat added to one of the four places it will appear.  All said and done, we're currently sitting on about 19k words of new content currently in...

The Allure of Wanton Cove: Progress report pt 2.

Thought I'd check in one more time tonight.

Between Thursday and right now, I've managed the following:

-Combat intro for a new enemy in one location.

-Combat for one enemy in one location.

-Win scenario for new enemy in one location.

-Loss events for high/mid/low taint related to new enemy.

-Three of ten new Mutation TF events (Basically a secondary set related to the new enemy, since they can cause more than one point of Mutation, a new set of TFs nee...
