Tifa Trainer progress

Working on having a demo towards the middle or end of February. Trying to focus on making  main hub for the game right now. 

Tifa Trainer Progess

Nothing to major right now, just working on the background for the main hub of the game. Also working on models for Shanttto and the main character which is going to be anonymous Shinra employee(was originally Hojo). I'll try to post another progress post in  7-9 days but right now I'll try to get a demo update out end of January or mid Febuary.

Tifa Trainer Progress

Working on a few environments in 3d for the hub area which is inside a submarine as well as plans for a few dungeons although I have no photos right now. Also working on a better toon shader that makes it much easier for me to place Black lines where I want, much needed for Aeris because I didn't like how her jacket looked. I wont be able to update anything at the end of the month though but the next demo will be the actual game with story and more H-scenes and actual battle character sprites...

Progress for Tifa Trainer will resume very soon

I still don have a PC case yet but its not an issue anymore, found out that I can turn on my PC without using the button by shorting the pins  that trigger the power button. I'll try to post some progress in 7-9 days. Pretty happy to find out its just a PC case issue and I felt  stupid after my friend explained the alternate way to turn on my computer though.

Tifa trainer progress delayed

Computer not starting and my laptop isn't strong enough to continue the project with it since I'm working on 3d for backgrounds. Power button on my tower seems to be the issue so no internal HDD issues or anything so I should be able to continue once I get a new case for my PC.

New HL Demo released

Update just includes the Visual Novel elements of the game. Nothing too major just a quick little choices and a couple of CG shots. Next focus might be adding the Battle sprites to characters and the first bit of story, and of course a Happy Halloween to everyone.

Link for demo is below the second part (# and onward) is the decryption key so just copy/paste it where its needed.

Tifa Trainer progress update

Wanted to have a demo out by now but I still need to adjust the rig for Tifa's model for CG scenes. Coding for the VN elements going good, should be able to put out a demo in 5 to 7 days showing off how the CG scenes system works and once that's done I can work on actual story.

Demo delayed til mid October

Been struggling with how to implement Visual Novel mechanics and scenes using RPG maker. Found a good solution but I wont be able to get anything worth showing or playing till later, trying to aim for something around the 15th of October .

Tifa Trainer Update

Final model for TIfa (poses and expressions) is pretty much done as well as working on a Yuffie model. Most the actual work right now is just working in extra stats and setting up scenes so I can get a visual novel setup going inside RPG maker which is a bit easier than I thought it was going to be. If everything goes well I should have a update to the demo by the end of September.

Heartlocked and old Model projects

Aeris and Tifa's models are almost ready for CG scenes.  I used to make mods for brawl ages ago and just found a few unfinished projects might make it available for download for anybody that wants to use it for whatever purposes in the future. I'll post another update in 3-4 weeks.

Heartlocked Demo Release

This demo is just for the battle system and dungeon possibilities of the game . 

The battles system is a mix of classes from FFV and FFVII's materia system with 

some spells from other Square-Enix/Squaresoft games thrown in. The character 

sprites in battle are just a place holder for now. Will post another update 

around 3 weeks  from now. Get the demo from the link here:

Switch from Renpy to RPG Maker MV

I spent way too much time working on the Renpy version of the game with very little progress and constant issues with the first person dungeon crawler battling concept. I finally had enough and decided to make a regular rpg with RPG Maker MV.  I've been test to see if I can make sprite work from my 3d models as well as CG for scenes using Blender and a bit of touch up work in Photoshop with much better results than what I originally was working on. Hopefully I can have a demo by the end ...

Gameplay Update Tifa Trainer

Finally got the coding for dungeon exploring down but the actual look will change in the game. The premise for the game will be a dungeon crawler with a simple turn based system I'm working on.  Both the coding for the dungeon exploring and battle system are about done and once they are I can add the art. I want to have a demo with a story and gameplay by end of december or mid january but I might actually release a demo with just the dungeon crawling and battle system to see how people lik...

3d Work, Bowsette and others

Been absent for quite a while but I'm still going to work on Tifa Trainer along with some 3d models I might release for others to use in Blender. Images for the other models can be found on my Tumblr and or Deviantart:

Tifa Trainer Progress

This is taking a bit more time to get things done for the demo, it should take a week or two to get things done. I'll try to post some in-game gifs of the dungeon feature once I get the code running properly.  

Heartlocked and the somewhat switch to 3d

Although I'm using 3d models the game will still be using renpy and will still be images of those models. The images will replace the cgs and other images and it's a lot faster to do . I'm going to be able to release a demo at the end of january.

Tifa Trainer progress

New title screen and  working on artwork for CG and coding. The bottom screen is some practicing on animation for future use for other projects but for Tifa trainer I might use it a little for some CG scenes. Unfortunately, as for now I've got a lot of work to do before announcing a future demo release date. 

Game Progress 2/2

This is a bit of testing for the strip club once you can obtain it in game. It's pretty simple each day the crowd will have a certain taste of girls(up to 3) in mind. If you assign girls fitting the demand you earn more gil. Not shown in the gif is the option to watch after you've assigned a girl which will lead to a shot of one of the girls dancing or you can take them to a private room for a more personal experience although it will only be an option once you own the club. 

Game Progress 1/2

Still have tons of art ti finish up before I release another build of the game. The images here are some of the CG scenes for favors I'm working on. Along with these I'm redrawing some of the older CGs to fit more with Tifa's update I posted previously along with the chibi sprites needed for the menu and battles.

Update delayed

Coding is pretty much done still need a bit of time for finishing the artwork and dialogue. should be done by the 27th or 28th.

Heartlocked progress so far

Been mostly working on CGs for Tifa involving the strip club scenes and once I'm done with that I'll work on the battle arena part a bit more. So far I have the chibi images for fights below the updated look for Tifa. The update to the game will be on june 20th and will not work with old saves from before considering I have to rework events that happen as well as adding new ones that wont work with the code I have so far released. Thanks for being patient with me, if you have any questions just ...

game progress as of now

 Wish I could release a new update but have been constantly losing motivation to keep working on this project. Feeling like I've finally got a focus on what to do now it's mainly getting artwork done. I think I'll stick with just having the strip club and save the battle arena stuff for another project considering I've spent too much time tinkering with it. The next update will be a bit of a separate game so old saves aren't going to work properly. Trying to aim towards in the middle of jun...

Tifa trainer progress

As of now I'm working on a ton of artwork right now for scenes and the battle system. The next update wont include the battle system but will include a few CG scenes for for a couple of character(Aeris, Lightning) along with a few new costumes and jobs for Tifa (Soldier 3rd Class, Turks Uniform)to gain more money and a CG scene for each  costume.  The next update should be released within 3 weeks.

Tifa Trainer Progress

A lot of the work I've been doing is focused on coding a battle system  and story elements  and making sure things work properly. Unfortunately there is nothing I can show off visually yet, this is just a post to let people know this project is still going.  Thanks, I appreciate your patience.

Heartlocked Progress

Now that I have a good grasp on what I want to do with the game I realized that I want to make a ton of changes to how things work along as give the game a proper story and corruption progression. In short I will be taking a considerable amount of time doing this so there wont be an update this month.

Heartlocked small update 9/30

This is a bit of a smaller update only adding a CG scene for Yuffie and making it so your job does not reset after 7 days. Still need to work out the coding for battles and still need to finish up the artwork for Aeris and Lightning as well. I'll try to get those in as soon as possible(probably another week). thanks for your patience.

Heartlocked Progress

Cameo characters will be a part of a strip club in which they'll have a 1 or 2 CG dance shot and one CG scene only. As for now the only characters I have added are Lightning and Myuria (Star Ocean 4). I'm still taking request for two more characters right now the only requirement is they appear in a SquareEnix game just to somewhat keep it related to FF7.

Heartlocked Progress

Currently working on CG scenes for Yuffie and Aeris.  I'm also reworking the portraits for characters in game as well.

Tifa Trainer Progress

Along with 3d I've been working on adding Aeris to the game and CG scenes for Yuffie and Aeris and adding scenes to the whipping minigame and adjusting the mechanics. I'm trying to add a few more missions with a bit more difficulty and adjusting the assign job to stay assigned after a week.  The update will come at the end of september.

Smash Mods and SFM update

Been working on a lot of 3d projects recently along with learning Blender and trying to use all the things I learned from Maya.  Since there is a plugin for importing to SFM (Source Film Maker) I've been trying to get used to Blender and will be updating these models with some more details and releasing mods for Brawl and or Smash4. Some of them like Koopagal,Vivian, and Marina will get revisions for SFM described on the main page for NSFW.
