Thought I'd share another render creation video. Another time-lapse shows me creating the image below (there was a little bit of post work).
Comments always welcome, the Youtube page isn't monetised but I do intend to post other videos going forwards - so Subscribe if you want to be notified.

Lot's of scene creation and rendering over night. Current road map follows. its mildly spoilers so you might want to skip and look at the picture of Cassie below.
Many of you following this project may be wondering when the next update to Dreams of Reality will be coming out. I will give an indication of this at the end of this article, but for now some details:
Chapter One had a total of:
775 static images;
141 seconds of animation (8460 rendered frames);
10 bonus images;
5694 lines of code;
26957 script (word count).
Chapter Two: Part one had a total of:
529 static images;...
Work continues as it always does, rendering almost all the time. still a long way to go, however I am aiming for another update release this year.
Further details on this will be forthcoming. In other news AB has created a walkthrough mod for the game that allows access to the gallery and replay scenes, It also highlights choices that provide the most 'scenes'.
His mod is accessible on this 2020-10-23 18:25:45 +0000 UTC

Just a short mid month update on progress this week. Currently working through creating and rendering scenes.
Stats for nerds:
Chapter Two: Part Two stands at 262 static renders and 52 seconds of animations (3120 animation renders).
1403 lines of code written.
Probably around 30% completed for what I intend to include in this update. I should have a poll for those higher tier supports up next week.
Also spent time fixing the save game naming system. I'm actually q...
2020-10-16 17:56:16 +0000 UTC View PostOn this developer log I’m going to talk about the music used in Dreams of Reality. I will not cover every single song or musical track, but intend to focus on the overall collection I have used and the reasons behind this.
Historically AVN’s don’t tend to have music, or if they do its generic and often doesn’t always fit the scene that you are seeing. Not everyone plays with sounds enabled, however a well-produced auditory accompaniment to a scene can really help add to...

Here is Octobers image for all you Danielle fans!
You can see how this was made and worked on via my you tube channel (cenc9).

Hello,
Seems there was some interest in my previous video showcasing my work on the Danielle Render that will be available for members on Friday.
I wanted to release the post work for Patrons early as I intend for the video to be public on Friday.
There will be a development update and the aforementioned render released this Friday as well.
I have a special render for those who are subbed to $20 or higher tiers. It's called 'experimentation'.

I thought I'd share a video this week. This is me working on a promotional render of Danielle that will be available to members next month.
The video has been sped up slightly, It's not intended as any guide on how to use Daz, it's just a bit of fun.
I'll be uploading a video of the post work for the render at a later time.
Take care all

Cassie is 18 and has just started university. Her hobbies are music and following the latest trends of fashion.
In fact, materialistic is a term that would be used to describe Cassie. Her attitude towards those around her has earned Cassie s...
Hello! In this poll I'd like you to decide which style of outfit Louise will be wearing. Eagle eyed viewers will notice she has her 'younger' hair, this dress is for a flash back scene where you and her go on your second (official) date.

I wanted to thank you guys who support me, and to the new fans of Danielle (of which I'm one) I wanted to give you a good 4k image.
She can give me a sponge-bath any day!
Phew busy 24 hours. Ch2: part one released on here last night, it was leaked almost immediately.
It's difficult to know how to feel about that, on one hand it shows there's a demand for the game, on the other it means the supporters that pay each month lose out. I know that the game is free, and you guys are supporting my development as a whole but early access is part of the $5 tier and I really wanted you guys to have a few days to play it before it went public.
For that I'm t...
I present to you the released version of Dreams of Reality Ch2:Part One.
In this chapter we see the fallout from what happened at the end of Chapter One, Depending on your choices with Louise there may well be other issues that need to be addressed.
The title for this part chapter is 'Descent' and as that suggests, things may take a darker turn. How dark depends on you. Being a part chapter it will be shorter than Chapter One, however splitting it up into 2 par...

This week has been very busy, Members that are on the discord will probably be aware of just what sort of progress has been made with Chapter 2: Part One. (this is now its official title!).
Last week I teased a possible 'big news' update this week and I do not wish to disappoint. As of now Chapter 2: Part one is out for Beta testing! What does this mean? well, baring any real big bugs, or last minute adjustments then I'm putting a 2 week timescale to the public release. Of course Patro...
Is this Sebastians gallery? just what is Emily doing there!
Here's Septembers render, I will be using this location in a later chapter. a more NSFW image is available to $20 + supporters!
You will have seen the recent update where I introduced an image of a new character that will be part of an up comming chapter.
I asked for name suggestions and I have received some so will include them here for you to vote on.
Attached is the working image of the model so far. A little background on her, she is young (around Emily's age) and is 'attached' to the Purple Orchid but doesn't work there.
Poll will be active for a week.

Today I'm going to talk about why spelling variables right and versioning correctly is important!
Usual caveat applies, there may be some slight spoilers to Chapter two but I will try to avoid that. Chapter one will be spoilt, but at this point I won't worry about that.
This will probably only really interest those who enjoy the development side of things, but that's what these logs are all about!
Okay, so, story time with Cenc. As I'm drawing towards the...
2020-08-21 11:35:46 +0000 UTC View PostHi all, Sorry no Developer Log this week. I've had a few computer issues (sorted now) that has meant I'm behind on where I want to be so I'm working hard to play catch up.
I do, however have a couple of bit's of news to share:
Kimiko's hairstyle voting is over and the Flame look won overall, it looks like many were torn between the ash and flame effect.
I plan to do a full write up about Kimiko in the future, but it will probably be after ch2:p1 is released.

I'm going to reduce the public development updates to once a month, I will still keep posting updates for patreons and those on my discord. This will allow me to have a bit more to talk about rather than just "did more renders". And perhaps make these updates more interesting to you.
Speaking of Discord, it is free for anyone to join even if you are not a supporter: LINK

Before I get to the meat of this update, a couple of news items:
The poll for the bonus scene is now closed and I will be detailing what it will include in an upcoming Dev update.
The poll for Kimiko's hair colour is still on going and (as of typing) the Flame style is in the lead. I of course in no way wish to influence anyone's vote (you ...
Kimiko is a character I've introduced previously, but I will be going into more details about her in a future Developer Log.
For now I've made some changes to her hair and I'm going to open this up to a vote from you. There are four colours, please vote for your favourite and It will be used in game.
First up is "Minty"
Next is "Flame"

Hey all.
Interesting last couple of weeks. I had a couple of days break and it was much needed! A lot of renders have been completed and are added to Chapter Two: Part One. As well as an 8 second animation.
Going forward I will be creating all animations at 60 fps, this is a substantial increase in time but I feel the smoothness of the animations look so much better. I may if time allows go back and redo the older anim...
2020-07-24 18:53:40 +0000 UTC View PostHi, Just wanted to let you all know about some changes to the higher support tiers I have made.
The $1, $5 and $10 will remain the same, however the $20 tier has had its early access time reduced to the same as the $10 tier. (7 days). This should allow me to better focus on the full public release and might minimise the chance of it leaking early.
In order to boost the rewards for that tier I have added the inclusion of access to the bonus scenes inside the game, These are not j...
