A double Friday

In all my time making this game, I don’t think I’ve ever actually missed a post before. I apologize, folks.

Between my surgery recovery and being away from home for a few days (boy is that a long story), I kept meaning to find time to write one up, and it just kept evading me until it was already Thursday, and the idea of writing a Friday post five days late was just silly.

So this week’s gonna cover two! Unfortunately, they’re two uneventful posts; for the same reasons ...

Slight delay

Hey howdy folks, nice to see you on time for a Friday for a change.

Unfortunately, I come bearing ill news: I had an unexpected surgery a few days ago, which has sharply limited my range of motion for the next two weeks. So even using my computer can only be in short bursts, and therefore development is going to take a bit of a hit.

This news is as unwelcome to me as I’m sure it is to you, but unfortunately was unavoidable. So I’m gonna rest up, hopefully heal fast,...

Damn, I just don’t know my Fridays anymore, huh

To make up for another delayed Friday post, here’s a sneak peek at some of the art for Captain’s Orders. I decided for this game I wanted to blend the simpler cut-in style cutscenes from Spoonful of Sugar with a handful of the more detailed, full-rendered scenes of Demigod Trainer; I showed off one of the former with the announcement reveal, and here’s one of the latter.

Work is still underway, but I’ve nothing significant to share yet. Hopefully that’ll change soon!

Just Pretend it’s still Friday

WHOO boy, it’s been a busy week. Always tough when real life responsibilities rear their ugly, ugly heads.

Unfortunately that means I did not get half as much done this week as I like to, but we’re still chugging along over here. The good news is that with the amount I already have prepped, work should go quickly once I’m able to crack down and get to it: the bad news is, I have to be able to do that first.

But we move as we can. Hopefully I’ll have more optimistic news ...

Slightly late Friday post

Good morning, everyone, I hope you’re having a good one.

I don’t have much to share this week; I’ve been busy, but I’ve gotten a little bit of time to work on Captain’s orders. I’m definitely enjoying working with Amelia; while more naive characters like Moana and Mary are fun, it’s a change to have someone worldly and travelled, who wouldn’t blush at taking off her shirt— even if she’s outraged by the fact that she has to do it.

I don’t have much ...

Next Up: Captain’s Orders!

Here at last, a sneak peek at the next game by the ever-expanding Shagamon Studios (it’s still just me) !!

Play as a young man crewing on the ship of Captain Amelia, an uptight, rigid, by-the-books leader if there ever was one. You signed up to this crew for adventure and excitement, but it seems those hopes have been dashed— that is, until you find yourself in possession of photographic evidence of the dear Captain in… less than savory activities. And while the photographs may be...

New game info next week.

I want to finish a little bit of extra prep work before I officially announce it; but worry not, progress is still going well and I'll have some real meat to show off soon.

In the meantime, we're now a couple weeks out from A Spoonful of Sugar, so I'm working on its Itch page, but I was curious; if you were to see the Porcelain Edition, or another game's Gold Edition or the like; do you consider that a whole new game, with a new page? Or would you rather it just be additional downloads...

Pretend it’s still morning.

Whoo, really missed my usual schedule today, huh?

Not that there’s too much coming- like most Post-Release Fridays, today will be a brief one. I hope you’ve all liked the Porcelain Edition! If there are any bugs, small issues, or even minor suggestions for additional content (we’re talking real small here, but it isn’t set in stone just yet) then as always let me know.

I have little to share today; I’m not quite ready to disclose details about the next project I’m wo...

Spoonful of Sugar: Porcelain Edition [NEW RELEASE!!]

At last, the day has come! It took a bit longer than I expected; time makes fools of us all, I guess. But we're here, with the definitive version of A Spoonful of Sugar, featuring;

  • A few new H-scenes

  • Extended scenes and a (slightly) longer story

  • An Affection System, where your choices will affect how Mary feels towards you

  • Split Endings, based on that affection system

  • And a f...

Okay, so next week.

I’m sorry, folks, I really wanted to have it done by today, but I keep getting wrenches in my plans.

I have made progress since last week, and I don’t anticipate any significant delays, so we’re for sure still looking at April, but it’s gonna be just a bit longer in the oven.

Thank you all for your patience, and I hope you love the finished game when it releases. Until then, sayonara!

Soon.

This was a turbulent week, and that's the only thing stopping me from saying with certainty that Spoonful will be out next week. That said, I also wouldn't count it out; if it's finished by next Friday, that'll be a pleasant surprise, and if not, I guarantee the Friday after that.

But with that, I'm going to keep things very brief today, and get back to work. See you soon*!

Morning, Folks

How's everyone doing? I hope you all enjoyed Dick's Long, Hard Night. The idea of an April Fool's game was very entertaining to me, and I enjoyed how it turned out. I liked the one description of it as "a well-constructed and even fairly sexy shitpost."

Anywho, just know I didn't really spend too long working on it, and I have been making progress both on Spoonful of Sugar, as well as the NEXT game I'll be releasing, all the while. Mary isn't far from fini...

Dick's Long, Hard Night [NEW GAME!]

Crime in Gotham City is a disease. A disease that can only be wiped away by one man. 

Dick Grayson. The Nightwing. 

Play through the night as Dick traces a mysterious piece of tech across the city, sniffing out injustice and running into a few beautiful damsels as well. Your choices in dialogue will influence the outcome of this dastardly plot! 

  • Meet 3 beautiful DC women! 

  • Your choices shape the conclusion!

Check back on Tuesday.

Due to extensive traffic on the 405, today's Friday post has been delayed until this Tuesday. Please check again then, and have a lovely day.

Soon, I promise

I got through some of the new scenes today, and boy am I liking how the Porcelain Edition is coming out.

I don’t wanna leave you all hanging too long, so today I’ll share another new feature: due to several requests, the new version of Spoonful of Sugar will have an affection system! The choices you make will now raise or lower Mary’s affection; get low enough, and she may even threaten to quit! But get high enough… well, don’t wanna spoil everything. But itâ...

Coming Along Nicely

Good Morning, everyone, happy Friday.


I don’t have a lot to share today, but Poppins Premium is coming along nicely. I’ve been working on that, as well as the next project afterwards in the background (and even a secret little bonus project too.) It’s startling to me just how invigorated I am to work on these new projects; I love Moana, but a change of scenery makes all the difference.

Speaking of, her new movie is evidently on streaming now. I really should wat...

New dawn, new me.

How’s it going, everybody! Happy Friday.

I hope you e all enjoyed the new update of Demigod Trainer: as always, any bugs come up, please let me know. I’m already sitting on a fix for a missing scene from the gallery, but I want to catch everything at once so I don’t release ten incrementally different variations.

But after that, it’s on to new projects! Like I’ve said, Mary Poppins: Porcelain Edition is next in line, but I’ve already begun working in the background o...

Demigod Trainer: Feeling the Love [NEW RELEASE]

That's right, folks, against all odds the day is here. A new release! I thought that these were just a myth.

In this newest, tastiest version of Demigod Trainer, you will receive;

  • 3 ALL NEW Fully Rendered H-Scenes
  •  1 REMASTERED H-Scene
  • 1 Expanded H-Scene*
  • 1 New Outfit!
  • 1 New Decoration for Moana's Bedroom
  • A new, more efficient way to earn gold
  • And, as always, plenty of titties.

Now, you may have noticed a l...

Next week. And then something new.

Alright, I'm committed. I'm locked in. New Demigod Trainer release in February, or die trying. I have tomorrow off work, so I'll probably finish off the last bits and spend the next week bug testing and whatnot.

Then, on to March, and first things first I'm going to spend some time on what I've decided to call A Spoonful of Sugar: Porcelain Edition. I'm thrilled with the response to it, and glad to see that most peoples' main complaint so far has been 'I wish it was longer.' And I'm ha...

Love is in the Air, Folks

Good morning, everyone, and Happy Valentine's Day!

I don't have a much to share today; although this marks the public release of A Spoonful of Sugar, so that's nice. Thank you to those of you who've filled out the survey on that one; and to those of you who haven't, feel free to! I like to keep up with how y'all are feeling.

As for how I'm feeling; no tremendous news, unfortunately. But I've made some progress, and the next update is still on track for February. This'll be the l...

Post-release Survey

Good morning, everyone! I hope you've all enjoyed Spoonful of Sugar; and if you did (or didn't-- really just if you've played it) I have a quick survey I'd love for you to fill out!

I just want to get a feel for how you're feeling; both about this new game, or anything else I have going on. How Demigod Trainer releases are feeling, any understandable frustrations with the release schedule, anything like that.

I promise, I do try to get these releases together quickly; unfortunat...

A Spoonful of Sugar [NEW GAME RELEASE]

That's right folks, on schedule for a change I've got a short new game for y'all!

This is A Spoonful of Sugar, featuring none other than Miss Mary Poppins. Play as a precocious young (but not TOO young) man who is content to live out your life relaxing and enjoying himself rent-free in your parents' basement. But mom and dad want you out, and have hired a new nanny to help you clean up your bedroom, and your life! Thankfully, she's got a system of rewarding those ...

Something is coming soon...

...But it's not Demigod Trainer.

That's still coming along, though, don't worry! I had been hopeful that I might squeeze in a January release, but I don't think that's going to be the case; that said, I'm confident in February. Hopefully early.

But, outside of the time I allot to working on Demigod Trainer, I was trying something out in Ren'py- I've mentioned that I sometimes make little game prototypes to test features and mechanics that I don't often use, and this was one of t...

Shush, it's Friday.

There's only so many mildly cheeky ways I can say "whoops, I shit the bed, it's Saturday and I'm writing a catch-up post," so today we're just calling it like it is. Happy Saturday, and here's the post.

I have nothing to share.

Work has gone well though! I promise, we're making progress slowly but surely. And this last week has even been a bit less slowly; like I said last Friday, I think being over the holiday hump has left me a bit more free for TnA (That stands for tProgrammi...

Getting Back on Track

Good morning, everyone, welcome to the Friday post.

It's been a while since the last update, and I'm a little behind my usual schedule for turnaround on these; between holiday prep, New Years prep, and my job prepping for both of those to the same degree, I've been swamped since mid-November.

But at last, I've found an oasis, and have been getting back into the groove of making good progress. I got a lot done yesterday, and I have today off work, so it's going to be a full day o...

Saturday is the new Friday, huh

I’m not planning on making this a constant or anything, but that’s two Fridays in a row I’ve missed. What can I say, the weekend calls me with its siren song…

Anywho, this is going to be brief since I have no news of note, but as promised, here’s a little peek at an upcoming scene! I already showed off a revamp to an old scene in the game, and now Moana’s finally gonna unlock the good ending to her little crisis. Relaxing, enjoying a beverage, and doing something nonspecifi...

Extremely Casual Friday

No one look at the calendar, I said it’s Friday so it’s Friday…

Any hypothetical lapses in Friday posting would be because I was thoroughly bogged down by Christmas ham. I hope you all had a merry holiday, and got everything you wanted- I myself found a beautiful Polynesian woman tied up under my tree, which is exactly what I wished for.

Unfortunately, aside of some charming banter, I have little to share. Work is still ongoing, and I’ll share news as soon as I have it. ...

No news is good news, right?

I sure hope so, because if so, I've got a heaping of good news for you.

Like I said last week, the holiday season has been incredibly hectic, and while I've made progress, it wasn't anything noteworthy. I was hoping to make a bit better than my usual schedule and get a new update out before the new year, but alas, it seems that won't be happening.

I'll keep trucking away though, and I promise you'll all have an idea of when it's coming as soon as I do.

In the meantime,...

A simple Friday.

Good morning, everyone, I hope that this winter season has been treating you well.

I don't have any news to share today; I had been hoping to turn around a smaller update more quickly, but the holidays don't seem intent on letting that happen, so it's going to be a bit yet. As usual, though, I'm now at work pivoting into stuffing as many goodies as I can into the next release.

Here's fingers crossed that that comes sooner rather than later, and I'll be back with more info abou...

A much needed redraw

It’s been too long since I’ve had something of substance to share, and I just whipped this up today. I wasn’t even planning on redrawing this, but this scene has been driving me crazy for a while, and the muses struck. I like this new version a lot better- and I may be expanding upon this scene soon, so keep an eye out. I mean, you’ll only see what I want you to see, but keep an eye on here anyways.

Before I go- I can’t imagine that anyone who follows my work is unfamiliar wi...
