Hey everyone!
It's been a while since we made an update post for XXXIV!
Through June and July I was heavily occupied with getting the environment pipeline for Pure Onyx up and moving again, now with emphasis on integrating 2D painting into the workflow. With things progressing well there, I've put effort in making sure XXXIV's goals match our strengths.
In August I further refined the direction I want to take XXXIV, and decided that to make it special over the l...

Hey guys!
Expect the next Pure Onyx release tomorrow night! There will also be a XXXIV update early next month -- we're making headway in quite a few areas there :D.
As for the PO release, the two major features we're adding are traps/environment-based damage, and with some luck the first iteration of the dodge ability for Onyx.
We have a lot of new character artwork progress to go over this month! Demonu has completed the Splicer FK-Doll sculpt, and Kame ...

Hey again!
We've updated the July 31 Test Release download links with a patched version!
It fixes an assortment of AI issues (most related to post-H scene or post-grapple behaviors), and two are pretty facepalmy ones.
The first is that the new 2x Vioreaper scene couldn't be accessed in most gameplay situations because two Vioreapers co...

Hello again!
The next release will be by the end of the month as usual, and will feature a new 2x Vioreaper scene for Onyx. It will also include improvements to the previous Vioreaper scenes, AI improvements to FemCop and Larva/Crawlers, improvements to destructible objects and the H system framework, and a Help screen + early tutorial framework.
This month we have progress on the 3D sculpt for the Splicer female enemy! Our environment pipeline is also picking up pace,...

Hey guys,
We've updated the June 30 Test Release download links with an important patched version! I've also added some new Known Issues now that we've gotten to test more thoroughly and received feedback from Discord users.
The patch resolves some strange enemy behavior that emerged after the actor initialization overhaul -- backend work from last month that optimized actor...

This release will include a 2x Larva variant of the Vioreaper H scene for Onyx, as well as some improvements to the standard Vioreaper scene for both Onyx and FemCop. We have a lot of work done on 2x and 3x Vioreaper scenes as well, so expect at least one of those next month.
The release will also feature destructible objects, as well as the water / splash system. You can read more about those...

Hello everyone!
As usual, we have quite a bit of artwork progress to show off this month. The next Pure Onyx release will also be posted in the next few hours! The $10 crowd may want to pass on it as there isn't a lot added beyond last week's release, but it does contain some fixes, and even more enemies added to the new AI system.
For those that haven't played the mid month release however, it's a pretty substantial update, and includes FemCop's version of the ...

I had hoped to have this update out at the usual time during the first half of the month, but I've just now gotten the chance over the last couple of days to process Olga's renders :D.
(Please check the attachment for full size 8K lossless renders!)
On the plus side, Penapsquat and I finished the conversion of the Vioreaper H scene to FemCop this month, which you can check out now in the Pure Onyx mid-month release, but will also be ava...

The April Pure Onyx release will be later today!
This month we've been working on new H scenes for the Vioreaper, and as such a lot of work this month went into H scene storyboards, experimentation, and animation. The first scene was released with the mid-month $10 tier version on April 22, and we are planning on making a double team scene (and possibly more) for next month ^-^.
For today we have more progress on the muscle lady boss, syndica...

A bit late this month, but we have the new Pure Onyx release with the first Vioreaper H scene ready :D.
Hey guys!
So, a few days late, but I've been pushing the first Vioreaper scene for Pure Onyx through the pipeline and I'm just getting around to posting this @_@. But yeah, you guys can expect the first Vioreaper H scene in the mid-month Pure Onyx release in a few days :D.
Anyways, we have the results for Poll #2 as well as a bunch of progress to show off on XXXIV content this month :D. Check it out below!

I'm sure most of you know the drill by now, but I'll give the rundown again for those who aren't caught up ^-^.
In February we began an experimental Rule 34 art/animation series called "XXXIV", and for now we will run it both here and on SubscribeStar alongside our usual content.

I want to start by reminding everybody that we've added a SubscribeStar, and are still working towards our funding goal that will allow us to migrate Pure Onyx and future games over there so that we can manage our own content. Please consider pledging there if you are able :D. P.S. We aren't leaving Patreon, so don't worry.

We have a lot of progress to show on the XXXIV side of things :D.
For those of you that haven't checked in for a bit, XXXIV (pronounced "thirty four") is the Rule 34 series we're working on getting off the ground. We're looking at a variety of things, including animations in the style of PO, high quality still image sets, and potentially a gallery app utilizing Pure Onyx's cinematic mode framework for animations.

We have more to show off than usual this month I think, as this month marks the beginning of the combat overhaul. This means we have new moves concepts for Onyx to show off, on top of those for two new upcoming enemies.
We also have a lot to discuss in terms of planned changes to the combat system, both near-term and down the road. In addition to functional changes such as control adjustments, we're improving combat animations as well, so be sure ...
