Evening report.

Not a lot to report today.  Had internet down most of the day and friends were over for a good part of the day as well.  Needless to say, I didn't really spend much time with any projects.

The new coder bailed on us today.  Not a huge deal, he finished up some work related to merchants, and he was working on Aftermath (Which is secondary to Inheritance at the moment.)  Thankfully, the person who did the Futa Apocalypse comic knows a bit about the Unity game engine and seems...

Game Breaking Bug

Looks like we have a game breaking bug in the latest build of Wanton Cove that's messing with character creation.  I'm working on it now.  I'll update this, and the previous posts once its fixed.  Doesn't look too bad, so I expect to have it fixed within the hour.

UPDATE:

Bug has been fixed.  If anyone experiences any further trouble, please let me know and I'll get on it as soon as I am able.

Futa Apocalypse Comic: What do you want to see?

Since the original post on this didn't generate much conversation, I figured a poll was in order.

The artist who did the original comic page I posted yesterday was hoping to get some feedback.  Please take a moment to vote in the poll to show your interest.

Futa Apocalypse Comic/Fanart

Wanted to share this with all of you.  This was sent to me this morning from one of the guys who helped storybaord the Aftermath game.

Normally, I would share this with $10 Patrons first, but in this case, I wanted to get as much feedback as possible so opted to share it with all Patrons from the start instead of giving early access to some.

Not sure how often the artist plans to release new art, but they HAVE expressed an interest in possibly making it a long term projec...

General Update

Normally, I make the Wanton Cove status updates public and reserve the rest for Patrons.  Today, I thought I'd share it with everyone since I have a little personal news to mention as well.  

Wanton Cove:

Took care of a reported bug last time I opened this up, but otherwise haven't done much work on this the last couple of days since we're nearing release of the next build.  The current plan is to have a new build up on the 22nd or 23rd.

Fanmail!

Now, I've given a little shout out to this artist before, but today I have a little something different!

A little while ago, I received this lovely image of their model just because they love Aftermath Team and the work we do here.  Needless to say, I was thrilled and flattered.

And just to make myself clear:  This is the single most awesome piece of fanmail I have ever received!

For those of you who are unfamiliar with sexbook, they are a talented artist, and ...

General Progress Report

Spent some time working on pretty much everything BUT Wanton Cove today.  But that's not all bad.

Inheritance:

Spent a little over an hour working on this today.  Almost exclusively "Time" related stuff.    Found the source of a bug that was causing time to not progress properly (Typo in the code, . . . you'd be amazed how hard those are to find sometimes.)  Also started coding the "Wait" option into the game so that players can p...

The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

Day got a bit crazier than I had originally hoped, but still made some good progress.

I had planned to write a pair of smallish scenes for the game today, instead I worked my way though about half a dozen rewrites and a pile of spelling errors instead.  I felt that was a fair trade off.  My plan is to hit version .9 within two builds after this one.

Just sent the test build out to Patrons at that level, and lacking any serious problems (I don't foresee any...

What's coming down the pipe:

The last 24 hours have been nuts.  Mostly in good ways.  As such, I wanted to take a minute to kind of explain what all is going on and what to expect moving forward:

The Allure of Wanton Cove:

The Allure of Wanton Cove is coming along nicely.  With two more updates, I hope to push the game into Day 7, at which point things will progress quickly.  My best guess right now is 6-8 builds before the game is COMPLETE.  

Once the game is complete...

General Progress Report

So, its been an absolutely crazy day today.

Wanton Cove:

My original plan for today was to do a bit of work on Wanton Cove.  Ironically, that's the only thing I didn't accomplish anything for.

General stuff:

Had three coders who reached out to me about possibly helping out with my projects.  I replied to all three (The more the merrier!) and have since heard back from one.  I've been talking a bit with the...

The Therapist release.

https://www.patreon.com/posts/public-release-11733316

My friend rfpnj has finally released the latest build of The Therapist, on the two year anniversary of its original release.  

Thought you guys might like to take a look at all the new content.    Among the new content are some scenes that I've written for the game as well, so take a look if you feel so inclined...

Next Project: What do you want us to work on next?

I wasn't going to post this poll for quite a while yet, but on the grounds that I've had three different coders express an interest in assisting me with projects in the last day, I felt maybe we should start figuring out what to work on once Wanton Cove reaches completion (After all, its never too soon to get the framework of a project up in preparation of adding content to it, right?)

As you all know, I'm hard at work in the background trying to get Inheritance up and running. &nbs...

General Progress Report:

Been a busy day today, even if I don't have as much to show for it as I would like.

In order of what I worked on:

The Allure of Wanton Cove:

Spent about an hour working on this first thing this morning.  Fixed a couple of small bugs, did two minor rewrites, and worked my way through a couple of suggestions at the same time.  End result is a couple of scenes should play out a little smoother.

The Virgin Games: 2017-06-13 20:47:06 +0000 UTC View Post

The Virgin Games proof of concept.

I mentioned a while back that I was going to toss some of the Virgin Games story into a game format and pitch it past all of you.  It took me about three hours to plug close to 34k words of content into story format in Twine (The program I use to make games) but I've finally taken the time to do it.

Think of this as a proof of concept.  Let me know if the setting interests any of you and share your thoughts on it.  It will likely be a while before I start p...

The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

Write a decent amount of content for this earlier today.  About 5k words, bringing the next update to around 7k so far.  I'll be working on this one more day later this week (Going to get back to the NPC reworks and plug away as some minor bugs and suggested improvements that were made since the last public build.  If time permits, I'll write a few more ambient events as well.)  So far for this build, we've got several more small scenes like comprised the former build, a comp...

Inheritance: Scene Suggestions

Its been too long since I posted something specific to this pledge level.  I figured now is as good a time as any to remedy this.

Here's your chance to tell me what you want in the game!  

By now, you all should have had a chance to play the movement build of Inheritance that was posted last month.  So you should all have some understanding of the setting.  What I am looking for are some scene suggestions related to Anna for the game.  I have a short list started...

General Progress Report

Thought I was mostly done for the day when I posted earlier.  I was wrong.  

The Allure of Wanton Cove:

Did a bit more work on this today.   Had apparently screwed up one of the new ambient scenes in the tavern and that's fixed for the next major build.  Mapped out a hand full of new minor scenes to be written.  I'd have been happy with just accomplishing that much.

Inheritance:

Got a piece ...

Deep One Ending Concept Sketch

Received a sketch for the first of three "Deep One" ending art pieces (I commissioned two pieces for this month, and will commission the third one next month along with the art for the "Madness" ending).  I asked the artist to make a few minor changes, but was fairly happy with the concept overall.  I'm pretty excited to see how the art as it progresses.

Enjoy the art!

The Allure of Wanton Cove progress report.

Haven't received any bug reports from this latest build yet.  As such, I started working on content for this today instead of running down bugs like I had originally planned.  

I wrote about 500 words of content today, basically creating a database of physical descriptions of various NPCs in the game.  In addition to that, I have nine small scenes ready to be added to the game (Same kind of scenes as appeared in yesterday's build), the start of one major scene for the next updat...

The Allure of Wanton Cove .83 Public

Since I have been on vacation the last couple of weeks, this update will be slightly different than most.  Instead of a small number of major scenes, this update includes a host of smaller scenes instead.




Changelog .83
-Added several new options fo the Cheat Menu, including additional options related to Taint, ability to remove Mutation, and ability to restore your own female virginity.
-Wrote and added 16 new scenes related to the Park.  Many of them ...

Home

Got a lot of chaos to deal with on the home front, but at least I'm home.  

Been a long trip.  My plants are all dead, and I'm pretty sure my cats aren't far behind.  But hey!  Looks like the person I hired to watch the animals at least mowed the lawn in the last week, . . . . 

Now, putting my own personal issues aside:

This morning, I finally got the commissioned images into the game this morning (Yeah, I know I was going to do it las...

Long day, but one day closer to home.

Had a pretty interesting day today.  Nothing terrible, just a lot of little things that wore me down.  To top it off, the motel I'm staying at tonight blocks "porn" sites, which apparently includes nearly every link I have short of Patreon and TFGamesSite, . . . go figure.

Because of this, I'm going to try doing just a little writing (Going to call it an early night, so I don't expect to accomplish much) then get to bed.  Odds are better than not that the next time you ...

Thank you!

Before I get to the meat of this message, I wanted to let you all know, the trip is going good so far, and it looks like I've got some half way decent internet this evening.  Not expecting to actually accomplish much, but I do plan to answer messages at the very least.  :D  Should be home in another 48 hours.  Home is where the wi-fi connects automatically, . . . . right?  :P

Now, on to why I came on here in the first place tonight:  

We have anot...

Return trip

Going to be leaving for my return trip tomorrow.  I'll try checking in along the way, but no promises.  I'll be sure to let you all know when I get settled back in at home.

See you all on the flip side.

The Creator's Club

Kravenar Games was kind enough to shoot me a message this morning about a new site called "The Creator's Club."  Its a brand new community intended to cater to creators and allow people to collaborate or ask advice from other creators.  

When I say the site is "Brand New"  I mean literally, the oldest post I saw on the entire site was less than 4 hours old.  Needless to say, there isn't much there yet, but the idea of it becoming a thriving community is very exciting.

Taint Ending, Human variant

Third of three.  Will be adding these to the game for the next build.  They will appear (Dependent on stage of Mutation) at the end of the game.   This one will appear at relatively low Mutation.

Taint Ending, Partial Mutation variant

Second of three.  Will be adding these to the game for the next build.  They will appear (Dependent on stage of Mutation) at the end of the game.
