Hi everyone!
It's been another busy month and I'm ready to share a bunch of new things with you!
Succubus & Incubus
The succubus and incubus will be part of the PvE overhaul, where you'll be able to encounter either or both depending on your sexual preferences as part of a set of demon-themed encounters! All sets are designed to have three encounters that chain to create a progressing storyline within a run, and I expect that this set will start with a hoard of imps an...

Hi everyone!
We're getting an early dev log this month! Last month, I talked about spinning plates and how I've had to consider a number of future systems all at once in order to make sure everything would properly play together, and I've now gotten to a point where I've started implementing several of these systems.
Character traits and effects overhaul
One of the toughest things to change has been to alter how character changes are tracked, stored, and displayed in prepa...

Hi everyone!
Wow, it's September already! Time sure flies and I'm doing what I can to keep up without burning out! The summer has been rough and I haven't been able to do what I set out to do. What I thought to be a sprint soon turned out to be what felt more like running a marathon with water up to the knees, so I had to slow down and reconsider my approach. Sometimes going slower is how you make it to the finishing line faster, which is something I'm trying to be better at.

Hi everyone!
I continue to work on moving the avatars into the new version 2 system that will support the dynamic avatars and in many ways pave the way towards a much better avatar system that will be used in the future.
Because of some differences between the two systems, I have decided to make the current avatars support the new system as well, instead of simply falling back to the old system. This means that already with the next system, profiles and inspect summaries will be u...

Hi everyone!
In this month's dev log I'd like to show you some sketches we've been working on for the PvE overhaul.
PvE Encounters
While you explore the campus you will run into different challenges and encounters, and with time each of them will have an illustration associated with it to help set the scene. Multiple chance encounters are planned for each character, in this case, a maid, mermaid, and a gorgon/medusa, which you will be able to encounter in di...

Hi everyone!
Another update is live and with it, four new item sets have been added to the game and players are now able to trade items with vendors and other players! This includes through the new item market, where players can list items for purchase by other players through the website. All players have also received an account-wide stash for additional storage and moving items between characters on the same account.
Backers from Student and up also receive an additional stash ...

Hi everyone!
May has been a busy month and I've been doing a ton of planning and designs in preparation for the dynamic avatars, which I will be sharing with you today.
Animated Avatars — Live2D
Many of you are probably already familiar with Live2D from VTubers, which I also use for my own streams and the animated avatar on the game's front page.
While looking into the requirements for dynamic avatars, I've learned that Live2D Cubism comes with eve...

Hi everyone!
After 12 hotfixes for the prepatch, I have moved on to the next update, which is planned to feature player trading, stashes, vendors for buying and selling items, and new clothing sets!
I initially thought I'd release the clothing sets promptly after releasing the prepatch, but with the changes to NPC trading, selling, and buying in the next update, I thought planning it into the new systems was wiser.
Stash, Vendors, and Player Trading

Hi everyone!
I hope you're all enjoying the latest update and the many hotfixes! Earlier today I updated the game's entry on tfgames.site which means many new and past players will enter the game in the next few days, and I expect this influx to last into the next week, so the coming weekend might be a good time to play if you're looking for new RP partners!
In preparation of the Steam release, the Patreon page URL has changed from battlemageroyal to battlemagetinon, as the game w...

Hi everyone!
Last month was a busy one, what with the finishing up of the latest update but also because I've had a few design breakthroughs in preparation of the Steam release!
With the latest update out of the way, I'd like to take a moment to talk about some of the things to be added in the immediate future!

We've been working on sex toys for a while now, and we have a great assortment of toys planned, including dildos, vibrators, f...

It's been a long time without an update, but it's finally here!
Improved Performance
This update meant having to dig deep into the foundation of the game and rewiring things that lead to the rewiring of other things in a long chain of ultimately unthreading everything I've been doing since I first started developing the game, and the good thing about this is that aside from a few hiccups in how things were reconnected, the game is in a fantastic...

Hi everyone!
New month, new year, and time to work on the update at last! I have most of the next three weeks open, which should give me the time I need to finish, test, and roll out the long-awaited update for the game!!
January did turn out to be an exceptionally busy month for me because I had agreed to help out some friends with their PlayStation and Xbox ports. I never had the opportunity to work on a PlayStation or Xbox game before and the money was difficult to pass up with...

Instead of doing a January dev log, here's a Yule dev log in time for the holidays!
Testing Testing Testing...!
Just yesterday I finally managed to finish up the overhaul of all the database functions for the game. Next, everything needs to be tested thoroughly, which thankfully is a much smaller task, but no less important. Since I've had to rewrite all functions for loading, saving, and processing character and item data, among many o...

Hi everyone!
Another month, another development update! I'm really liking how these are turning out and how they help me share the progress I might otherwise forget about.
I have started developing the next update with purpose, and expect it to be out in two weeks or so. I have also decided to name dev logs after the month they are posted, instead of the month that passed. So no one missed out on the November dev log!

Formal Wear & Wedding Outfits
The next update will introduce a wedding outfit complete with a big dress, gown, ring, and a few other accessories! There are many fantasies to enjoy that only get better with the right outfit; whether it's playing the lost bride, playing out a romantic wedding, or corrupting something some pure as a bride-to-...

Hi everyone!
I'll try to do this new thing where I release a dev log near the beginning of every month to let backers know about progress, status, news, and future plans ❤
Because I often share upcoming content with backers on Discord, instead of Patreon, I feel I have neglected backers who isn't active on Discord in the past, and I hope this will make it easier for backers to follow the game's development.
Let's do this!

The conference was absolutely packed with business events, meetings, parties, and foremost people. More than 250,000 people attended the conference, and I am now mentally, socially, emotionally, and physically...

Hi everyone,
As you can probably imagine, I've been real busy with both developing BMR but also life in general, as is peak season for social-life and visiting family. But this year it's also busy for another reason: I'll be attending Gamescom as part of my engagement with one of the studios I work for, and it has allowed me to make meetings with a couple of people who might be able to assist in expanding the success of BMR!

Hi everyone!
The backgrounds for the ward are now live on the test server, meaning there are no longer any locations with missing backgrounds in the game!
I really adore the warm colors and the implied softness of the cushions for the location. I wanted to have something that resembled more a nurse's office and a sort of standing admission counter than an actual ward. There are still curtains and beds, but for the most part, students are not expected to be bedridden for long enoug...

I usually share work-in-progress images, but she worked so fast that I barely had a chance to share anything before she was done with the entire look. You may also notice that the new sprite is a full-body drawing, which will be used for NPC entries in your discovery collections.
Currently, she's working on Moira, the...

These are bought using an assortment of candies, which are plentiful around the campus these days, and Hilda herself will also be handing out candies to trick-n-treating students 💞
I also implemented a new way for coloring items, which takes another source image than the base-colored item. This allows me to cha...

With hotfix #1, I also added in the ability to change the location of an encounter without having to end the encounter, allowing players to mor...
