This week in the Forest! #20

OOPS Almost forgot to do this today! 

Let's start with a word from Vixel!

3/22 weekly report

Started last week by adding in Maverick's solo story and gossip, Bucky & Gus' date number 2 with illustrations, and the full color Finley & Rascal loop from their WIP sex scene.

Then it was time to do builds! I originally made the builds on the 18th. Then we found bugs, fixed bugs, found more bugs -- by Sunday night, I'd done build...

V0.17! Memory Revamp!

Get the build here! 

We're a bit light on content this month, but this has a ton of improvements in the back-end of the game!

v0.17 CHANGES:

• Bucky and Augustus date #2 (M/M) with two full color illustrations! (Dates spawn near Maverick's shop. This date spawns with a 2...

10$+ March Poll!

OK FOLKS! We need more ladies! So let's make some ladies go on a date :>

Same rules as before! Vote on however many as ya like, and it'll become a date with an illustration!

HMM, we don't have a ton of ladies just yet (ACT 3 LETS GOOO) so it's a smaller list.

This week in the Forest! #19

Yo folks!  Hope your March is going well :>

Let's start with A word from Vixel!

3/15 weekly report

Found and fixed some problems caused by my memory optimization work last week. One bug broke all the illustrated critter stories. (You could start them, but the game would softlock.) Also looks like there's a lag in WebGL builds when loading sex scenes, so we'll probably need to introduce a mini-loading screen for WebGL...

This Week in the Forest! #18

WHATS GOOD BBs? 

Here's what's good with us. Starting with a word from Vixel!

3/8 weekly report

Finished my memory optimization tasks! This was a leap forward and solves some tricky problems we were facing as we added more sex scenes to the game.

[The Background]

Previously, sex scenes (and music tracks) were preloaded into memory and stayed there the whole time t...

YO FOLKS~! Welcome to March!

Let's start with a word from Vixel!

3/1 weekly report

Made some bugfixes and updates to the earlier monthly build! Biggest bugfix is one to stop date conversations from playing for critters who are not currently out on their dates. The new builds replaced the February ones on dropbox.

Currently making a big optimization pass in the areas we need it most! The game ...

This week in the Forest! #16

YO FOLKS! We released our build earlier this week, but here's what we've been up to since then!

2/22 weekly report

- Added critter callouts for gift items! (These are the little "Hey Rascal!" cartoon speech bubbles you see when critters have a gift to give.)

- Fixed some last minute typos, portraiting issues, and a few stray bugs prior to builds.

- Made the monthly builds!

- Still bug...

Man, where does the time go!

Hope y'all are staying safe if you're in that cold snap! 

Let's start off with a word from Vixel!

2/15 weekly report

New stuff:

• Added Central Forest fast travel perch. This was a bit of an undertaking because I'd always assumed just one fast travel perch per scene. (Penny lands on the 'ground perch' until the bridge is rebuilt, and the new wooden perch is across ...

Exclusive Poll! New Date!

Let's add another Critter Date to the pool!

The first one was Mabel and Dustin, the 2nd one was Bucky and Peter (which kinda had scarlett in it)

I'll re-use the same list as last time since there's some good pairings in it :>

Same rules as before, vote as many times as you'd like, and the top one will get a date with an illustration!

Public Patreon Poll! New Story!

YO FOLKS! 

Time to add another Critter story to the pool :>! Last 2 times were ladies, so lets get some boiz.

Like last time, you can vote on as many as you'd like, and the top one will get a story and an illustration to go along with it!

Let's get votin'!

This week in the Forest! #14

YO FOLKS!

Let's chat about what we've been up to the past week.

We'll start with A word form Vixel!

2/8 weekly report

Finished importing and scripting the new critter dates! (There are 4 total, one with a full color illustration.)

Also brought in part 2 of the Lanora legend. (Another full color illustration.) Some minor scripting to go.

Will finish importing the remaining gossip ...

Kickin' it off with a word from Vixel!

2/1 weekly report

Fixed the bug causing Mabel and Dustin's date to spawn in the wrong places! (It was showing up in the lake and mountains instead of just central forest by the otter shop.) Will have the fix in the upcoming build. ^^ There are still a couple bigger bugs left to fix (Ollie won't let you ride, and a softlock when delivering Gus' ottershop package) but I know what's ca...

This week in the Forest! #12

Yo folks! Hope the weeks starting well!

Let's jump into it with a word from Vixel!

1/25 weekly report

Added Red's sweater animations and transition. (This won't appear until we start Act 3 of the story!) The transition will work similarly to the swim floaties transition: Red will automatically don his sweater when you step into the snow.

Added a "New" label to the interact ui for the gossip interaction. Now y...

This week in the Forest #11

Yo folks! It's Tuesday again!

We did just drop the build yesterday, but we promised weekly posts, and we will deliver!

Let's start with a word from Vixel!

1/18 weekly report

Finished scripting the bunny cuck scene!! This is the first scene with a background character (Peter) running his own independent set of loops. There's a nifty little AI script I wrote to control him too that I'll share more about in the coming days. ^^ 2021-01-20 01:44:55 +0000 UTC View Post

v0.15 - Introducing Critter Dates!

AYYY~! Look it's here :>! 

This one's a bit late, but we blame the holidays |3. We'll be bringing the releases back to early in the month over the next few months to get back on schedule. That's the plan at least ;)

Download it here! 

Changelog:

- Introducing CRITTER DATES~! So...

Exclusive Patreon Poll!

OK! This month we'd like another Critter encounter!

I think moving forward, we're just gonna call them Critter Dates. Originally, I didn't wanna include "date" since it might imply that YOU are dating them. But I suppose there's nothing wrong with Rascal having a date of his own in the future. Just more stuff to play with as time goes on!

Last time was Dustin and Mabel! So what shall it be this time?

Vote on however many you want! Th...
