[Progress Report]: 25th of December

Merry Christmas, everyone!

Above you'll see an image of Riley, the star of this update and whose Move-in Arc you will be embarking upon shortly!

This update was a little shorter than usual. It has the nine events I wanted in, but the events aren't terribly long. Still, this was all done over the holiday season, so I feel pretty good about getting this much work out. All of that said, I am...

Hey everyone,

A hearty congratulations for Riley winning the poll for her Tactical Cuddling Event! The above image is, of course, the mandatory cat conversation before the event commences.

As an aside, it's Christmas this weekend!? And the early build release!?

As you can imagine, I'm quite busy, but I am still planning on getting the early build release done on Christmas Day. I thi...

Hey everyone,

I think I've just about recovered from that lighting mishap, and work on Superheroes Suck is continuing apace! I don't know how it's continuing apace. You would not believe how much "business" picks up during the holidays when you work in a hospital. Still, I think things are getting back on track and I'll try and see if I can get those textbox changes I mentioned on the Discord i...

Hey everyone,

Jeez, it's December already?

First, I've been asked if there will be a delay to the release schedule given that the actual early build release day falls on Christmas weekend this year. The answer is: no. There will be no delay. I am planning on traveling next year, the date is undecided as of right now, and so I don't want to take any unnecessary time off until then.

Hey everyone,

I hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving! I had the usual meet-up with three people important in my life along with food for twelve people. Needless to say, I spent most of that day either eating or incapacitated.

Regardless, development on the next update of Superheroes Suck is progressing! As you can see from above, we are entering Riley's Move-In arc, which actually involv...

Hey everyone,

The Early Build version is uploading right now and, I have to say, I'm very pleased with the outcome! I was quite concerned for a while there, given the week I was gone. That extra time away made me forget just how much work I put into the game before I left, and seeing it all during my bug-catching playthrough gave me a great sense of relief. I think some of these events are real...

Hey everyone,

It's the week before the Early Build release! Above, you can see Valentina, our lucky poll winner for the Tactical Cuddling Events! I'll be working on those events for the upcoming week and up until release!

It's been a little rough getting back into the swing of things, but I think I've finally manged it. As you can tell by now, there will be no delay and we're looking at a...

Hey everyone,

This is a short update: just wanted to let you know that I'm back in town, rested, and that work on Superheroes Suck is resuming!

Work on the Video Game Arc, as well as some preparation for the future Poll winner, is underway!

[Progress Report]: 22th of October

Hey everyone,

An early Progress Report since I won't be here tomorrow! I touched on this but I'm going out of town for a week starting tonight and I should be back by next Saturday. As I said, there will not be a delay in the game's update - I took two weeks off of work to focus on one of those weeks on crunching the game and another one for the trip. As such, I am a week ahead of schedule as I...

Hey everyone,

So begins the Chrys Video Game Arc!

Before that, though, I just want to thank you all for your kind messages over the latest version of Superheroes Suck. I knew that the Cuddle events had been hotly anticipated for well over a year now, and it's nice to see that so many of you enjoyed the first one. Also, much of the uncertainty I had over how to fix many of the problems in ...

Hey everyone,

The early build is currently uploading!

I'm pretty happy with the release of Version 1.300. I was able to push out to about ten events, although quite a few of them are short, and this does finally catch up Valentina and Chrys to the current content of the game. You know what that means, right?

That means I'm finally able to start the Sandbox part...

Hey everyone,

It's the week before the early build release and, as usual, the screaming begins anew!

This week actually went pretty well, much smoother than all of the others despite the new lighting issues. I've finished up about three events which brings up the total to seven now, and I'll be trying to hit that nine to ten mark this week in time for the early build release. Above, you'...

Hey everyone,

I ran into a major problem this week with the lighting. I needed to update from version 4.10 to 4.20 in Daz3D for some new assets, and it botched the lighting in basically every scene. I managed to find a "fix" after a lot of tweaking, but it was definitely an unexpected hurdle. I lost one to two days to it. Thankfully, I had already written the script for this week so once it was...

[Progress Report]: 11th of September

Hey everyone,

There's been a slight delay in development in the this week due to the heatwave causing several power outages in my area. I switched to doing the story during the day and the renders later on in the night, but I didn't get as much done as I wanted this week. That said, all of Chrys' animations for her sandbox event have been completed and will be in the next version update!

Hey everyone,

I've received a lot of good feedback about the game's first sandbox event and I can confirm it's finale is coming in the next version! Also, the Patreon poll this cycle has more sandbox events ready to be implemented in the game, so vote now! The poll is quite close.

I mentioned a little while ago how I was going to use the feedback I received to improve the game's H-scenes....

Hey everyone,

The early build for Superheroes Suck version 1.250 is now uploading and should be live within an hour or two! 

This development cycle has been a strange one. Without the stress of the main story bearing down on me, I was able to lay out the foundation for a lot of important upcoming events, but I've been developing with that stress for so long that the lack of weight ha...

Hey everyone,

We're entering into the week of the Early Build release and this one kind of surprised me. I'm typically filled with an overwhelming sense of anxiety, but this time it just feels like business as usual... Not sure what I think about that. I have taken this development cycle a little easier in terms of scope in order to recover from the balancing act the was the Power Reveal, but I...

Hey everyone,

I don't think I need to announce who is about to win the poll for this version, but with Chrys' Bathroom events in such a commanding lead, it looks like I'll be starting on those events tomorrow!

Work on Version 1.250 is progressing smoothly with Valentina's events having made it into the release as of yesterday. I'll be putting the finishing touches on another one involving...

[Progress Report]: 31st of July

Hey everyone,

Progress on Version 1.250 is proceeding smoothly and it has been a welcome break from the past two development cycles. Working on Chrys and Valentina's stories have been far less stressful than tying together the fight with Lovestruck and the Power Reveal events. While not quite a vacation, it's been good to recharge with the less intense storyboarding. It's also felt good to rec...

Hey everyone,

Well, with the power reveal out there's been only one topic that you all have been wanting more information on and that is:

Hey everyone,

The update is finished and the early build will be going up soon! My internet has been having a bit of a crash today, but I see the numbers going up, so I have hope. I'm fairly exhausted after these past two development cycles, so I'm going to be getting some rest Monday, but I will still be available for bug reports! Send them in and I will fix them!

Hello everyone,

It is the week before the power reveal, and it's implementation into the game is finished.

I still have a lot to do this week. It looks like we might get six events, but I'm going to try hard and push for the seventh so that the update doesn't feel short. Most of the development time was spent on the power reveal event which underwent several rewrites and reimaginings duri...

Hey everyone,

Above you can see Harper enjoying something I can't: sleep! Two weeks until the release and the screaming continues! My earlier prediction of five to seven events for this update is looking accurate, and the finalized script is being turned into renders as we speak. It will be a shorter version update compared to the previous ones, but easily the most impactful in the story due to...

Hey everyone,

The power reveal events begin this week and the screaming starts in earnest!

I'm not sure if they'll also take up the following week as well. I am planning on two, and I'm fairly happy with the rough draft of the script, but I'm going to do a final pass on a few segments tonight. My brain is reaching maximum capacity with all the threads I need to pull together for this mome...

Hey everyone,

It's been really great to hear all of the theories and the general discussion of the game after the latest update! It also looks like the confrontation event with Lovestruck was well received, for which I am incredibly relieved. Now, onto the next, and most requested, update in Superheroes Suck's history: The protagonist's power reveal.
