General:
Anax, what does it mean when you keep saying ‘ideally’?
I’m glad you asked! Throughout the Q&A you might hear me say ‘ideally’ often. Simply put, ‘ideally’ means that - my patronage is enough per month (minimum of $2,500), and that there is enough time in the world to do it. Money and time, my friends, these are the only limiting factors for a man with an endless passion!
The next Developer Q & A live stream is TODAY Thursday, November 8th. It will begin at 7pm Eastern/6 Central/5 Mountain/4 Pacific time.

Thank you, to my new patrons! I am trying hard to reach my goal so that I can produce the Factions game! I thought I would make a public post showing some of the other playable factions that the real game would have (and if you are just learning about this there is a free proof of concept demo you can play to get the gist of what I want to do). Anyway, as you can see, if we can afford to build this game, it will also allow you to play as a male character! These are ...
2018-11-01 20:51:40 +0000 UTC View PostFirst of all, happy Halloween to all you dark, depraved lot! It's that time of year again when the Anax's shares treats with the community! So, what can you expect today?
C:I - My $30+ Patrons will soon be enjoying their final version of the novel, and it shall go down the line per usual!
F:CoC - In just an hour, I shall public ally release the demo version of Factions: Crystals of Control!
So, this year some of you get two treats, but e...
2018-10-31 23:18:41 +0000 UTC View PostThe poll has ended after almost a month- and it looks as if clowns and succubi will have to wait as the monsters come out to play! Desideratum won! If you have any questions about this new project, which I shall start working on right after Halloween, please ask here, and thank you!
2018-10-26 17:50:06 +0000 UTC View PostC:I - Still working hard to get this finished by Halloween. The entire story is written and as of tonight I only have about 20 more character unlocks and then program it!
F:CoC - This will be released on Halloween as a finished proof-of-concept. We will have a Windows and a Mac version as well as an adult and a "safe for work" version. This means there will be a safe version that you can share with family, friends, or in whatever c...

Blank got Chieko working, though she does not have her conversion scenes yet. However, if you play as Justine or Dion and follow the needed requirements, you should get a short conversion scene.

The $5 patrons and up have been voting, but only 65 have done so! Right now, it is a very close race between Desideratum and Giggle Night! But, as we have seen before, Noir Nights could suddenly spring up at the end to win. If you invest $5 or more in my patron, please vote! Or, please consider supporting your hard working bogeyman and help choose the next novel!

C:I - I LITERALLY just finished rendering the final screen! I will do the character sheets next and then ALL artwork for C:I will be done. I feel that sense of accomplishment growing! I took another seed and grew it into a sturdy tree. It feels good. I love completing projects! As I always say, I will release it as soon as I can, but I have done NO programming yet (random fights, character unlocks), so I am expecting at least one more week of ...

So, over at Hypnopics, someone was talking about Daz models. When I mentioned the thousands of dollars I spent on them to get everything in order for the entertainment I create for you, they said they did not think things were as much as I said. I told them, it's probably $400 to $500 per character. Then I went ahead and broke it down for them. I thought I would share it with my fans in general so that everyone can follow along with what I do. Mind you this...

C:I - I have been hard at work! The finale of Cereborgs is very story intense, as you might expect! It is coming along and I have some very cool action renders if I do say so myself. I will keep working on this and then put in all the character unlocks! After that, I can release it to everyone. I still say Halloween at the latest, but I think I will be done early.
F:CoC - Blank has promised me that this weekend a NEW ...

The polls are open! Which title will my patrons choose for us to enjoy next? Who can say? It is always surprising! So, if you have not considered investing in me, now would be an ideal time, as for a mere $5 you could help shape the next few months of entertainment!
2018-10-05 03:45:22 +0000 UTC View PostAs always- you get to vote on what we all get to enjoy next? Only three original novels remain unwritten. So, with me working on the final chapters of C:I, you have a could of weeks to decide the next project!
(I forgot to make the poll where one can only vote once, so I am reposting where only one title can be voted upon)
2018-10-05 03:43:07 +0000 UTC View PostC:I - Not much work here again with the release of Factions and promoting it, I have not been able to work on this, BUT, now I should be able to devote every day to it for the rest of the month, so expect the finale no later than Halloween (sooner if I manage to get it done faster!)
Faction- This has been the meat and potatoes of the few weeks. Everything has been done, YouTube videos made, demo released, and the live developer Q&A was fun. &nbs...
The first live stream will have both myself and Blank and will this afternoon, Thursday, October 4th. It will begin at 7pm Eastern/6 Central/5 Mountain/4 Pacific time.

The Alpha version of the demo, which is playable, has been released to my highest patrons and will work it's way down to be FREE on Halloween to the public in a finished state! Thank you for your support patrons, and if you happen to not be one of my investors, watch the video and consider helping me build video games for the rest of my life for your entertainment!

F:CoC - I have been doing more art and trying to help Blank with testing it. It will be released by this time tomorrow. I have spent the last couple of days creating a YouTube video to also describe it for the public. The post for my $30 patrons tomorrow will have info...

Just a head's up, I will be releasing the first look at the Factions: Crystals of Control demo on Saturday to my $30+ Patrons, and then it will trickle down. By the time it goes public for Halloween it should have more options and be considered the "complete" demo. I look forward to seeing what everyone thinks!
2018-09-28 02:16:06 +0000 UTC View PostInvestors and the general public, I wanted to take a moment, and make this a main post regarding the future releases from me. I will have to charge money for the video games at least at first - but the remaining HTML novels will still be free after a month from when I do a new release. Regarding the video games, like F:CoC...
The games have actual overhead cost - thousands of dollars
Those costs are: programming, commercial music/voice over rights, ...
Blank is putting the finishing touches on the programming, cleaning up a few rough edges, and we are on schedule. Patrons- expect this to release by next Sunday at the latest! (Sooner if I can!)
2018-09-24 23:07:54 +0000 UTC View PostI am already working on the final chapters! Thank you for your support and enjoy! Soon it shall go public!
2018-09-22 17:55:56 +0000 UTC View PostC:I - I am writing Howard's story at the moment. While I was writing Chieko's I came up with a cool, hot bad end idea, so I am also rendering those images at the moment. I am really happy with how C:I is turning out. Yes, it is more linear than some of my titles, but there is so much story with all these chapters, and the lore will be fun because with so many Cereborg unit types, it will be fun to write about how they work and why they exist in these incarnatio...
2018-09-20 19:30:23 +0000 UTC View PostC:I - I have the art finished up as of today for Chieko's final chapter. Things will be coming to a head! I will work on the writing for the next couple of days and then begin rendering Howard's finale. It feels good to be this close to the end of this project. It's had a different flow to it than all my novels, just as they each do, but I have made some very hot scenes and a story that will lead to many questions of the futures of the characters. &n...
2018-09-13 22:32:02 +0000 UTC View PostThanks to my patron, the fights seem to be working on Chapter 3 for Howard. Originally, I wanted to have Chieko have some fighting as well, but when I looked at it with the story, it really became something thatw ould be put in for the sake of being put into it. It really would not have much of a point, so I believe I am done with the third chapters.
As far as the final three chapters go (Chap 4's) they will wrap up everything! Then, the story of Cerebrum will be complet...
C:I - Still working on Chapter 3's. I released most of it to my $30 patrons, but as usual, all the programming required for the fights has slowed me down as my brain melts trying to get it all into the right place. So, tomorrow, I will release them to the 20 patrons, with whatever I am able to program into it. Once I get this working, I will start the final chapters (chapter 4), and then C:I will be finished! So, expect a new poll in a month or so with me...
