Hey Patrons,
I hope you are enjoying V 0.2. Got any comments or feedback for me? I appreciate feedback from you guys, so if you have suggestions or questions please start a conversation below or PM me here on Patreon.
Back at the end of June, Daz and Renderosity had end of year sales and thanks to your wonderful support I was able to buy a bunch of new assets for the game at good prices. A few new locations, and also some new outfits for the ladies. I’ll make a few wallpap...

Hey Patrons,
A lot of The Keymaster is about sexy ladies, but there’s magic too. And what could be more magical than unicorns?! This is one of the new images for V 0.2 that you'll find when you visit the forests of Tolnissa.
I'm pleased to tell you that I've just loaded V 0.2 into the Ren’py engine. Almost 40,000 new words and 500 new images overall. Now I need to go through it a few times to look for bugs, do continuity checks and smooth all the “rough edg...

Quick update guys.... I’m pleased to say that work on V 0.2 is coming along well. I’m up to 450 new images for V0.2 and working on the last couple of scenes, which unfortunately have slow render times. I demo the content-rich images then render better copies (it takes up to 3 hours per render).
Still tweaking the text; after being immersed in image making for the past few weeks and matching these to the draft of the text I am now reviewing it all. You find that as you write th...

Hi Gold Patrons,
I'm doing images for Friday night in V0.2. Lucy has just been out on the town in her new dress. It looks good on her.
And it looks even better coming off....
And of course, Lucy without a dress is the best of all....
Hope you like the images, guys. Now I'll get ...

As you can see, it’s not all magic in V 0.2; there’s time for some good gaming as well.
V 0.2 will cover another week in The Keymaster, with new characters and new places, so some time out for the MC and Lucy seems well-deserved. As to progress….I’ve written most of the words and done most of the images (over 250 at this stage). It still needs some organising of the plot lines, and there are several scenes I’ve been mulling over before I do their images, but I'm on...

Meet Sirenne,
You’ll meet a few new characters in V 0.2, including Lady Sirenne. She’s the other half of the pair of evil mages that are causing so much concern to Lady Mallory.
Sirenne dresses to kill, and unfortunately she is known to enjoy actual killing too. Lord Derath needs her support, but at times he finds her hard to control.
I have around one hundred images for V...

Hi guys,
No game about magical worlds would be complete without fairies….so meet Rose! She comes into the game in V0.2 and has a major role in things. She’s magical, so she can control whether her wings are there or not.
And, needless to say, with a healthy sex-drive she can deci...

Hi Patrons,
I hope you are enjoying The Keymaster. I am busy on new images for V0.2, with around 90 done so far. This is one I actually did a while ago, but my funny side thinks it is kind of appropriate now, with the polite concerns here (and less polite on F95) about how to let female characters behave.
MC? Derath? Nah….screw ‘em both! Teddy is Lucy’s true love!
More seriously though…please give me any feedback you want; I really appreciate learning wha...

Hi people,
Well, V0.1 of The Keymaster is out with the public now and has had plenty of downloads. I hope everyone is enjoying it. I’m busy on V0.2 so I’d appreciate feedback on V0.1 to help guide me as the game develops.
So, feedback please! What do you like? What do you NOT like? A couple of starters:
1. Sometimes the menu offers you a single choice rather than a multiple choice. I like this approach after playing DMD, a classic game that uses it...

Hi Patrons,
Here’s the front page for The Keymaster. I’m super happy to say that apart from a few final images I’m ready to put V0.1 together. I’ve started loading it into Ren’py and this week I will format all the text and images. Then proofing and polishing, and then I can get it out to you guys!
I’m looking forward very much to sharing it with you.

Hey people,
Time for a decent update on my new game, The Keymaster.
When I started making Naughty Magic, I had the outline of a story, some characters and a broad idea of how the magic would work. But I made most of the detail up as I went along, and that was a difficult way to make a game.
So, with The Keymaster I’m getting the story and the characters much better sorted at the start. That means:
· A spreadsheet showing every day in the game and five columns for tr...

Hi gold and silver patrons,
I’m busy rendering for V 0.1 of the Keymaster, with around 200 renders now done. But I took a quick break to do these ones for you guys.
After posting recently about lingerie for our lovely girls, the subject of nightwear comes up. Well it does for me anyway :). As you can see below, Eleanor and big sister Jessica are not really trendsetters when it comes to PJs. This could change as the game progresses but for now they seem happy in...

Hey people,
I’m busy doing images for the new game. I’m trying to improve the lighting in my renders and the learning curve is slowing me down. But I’m still making progress, and I’ve completed more than 100 images already.
The first version of The Keymaster will establish the characters and the plot, which combines magical drama and the mundane world. I don’t want to spill the beans on the magic side but here are a couple of images from the “real” world. ...

Hi Gold and Silver patrons,
Here are some more visuals from The Keymaster. I’ve done more than seventy images for the game so far, and I’ve just been preparing some that focus on our mystery lady:
Firstly, wearing one of her new outfits:
And again, without that pesky outfit hiding her obvious assets:

Hey people,
I'm making good progress with The Keymaster:
I’ve set out the whole game in some detail (which will stop me going down rabbit holes like I did when making Naughty Magic!).
I’ve written most of the words for Version 0.1, as well as a lot of Version 0.2 to ensure continuity.
Now I’m finalising locations in the game and working on images.
Here is the MC’s sister, Eleanor. Ellie is not the greatest when it comes to dress sense but hey, she’s bee...

Hey guys, hope you are all enjoying Christmas & New Year as best you can after a very difficult year. Here's to a really great 2021!
And here's another character from The Keymaster for you. With those dark eyes and that sultry expression, she's more than a bit mysterious. She'll play a large role in the story and the enjoyable 'activities' that you know will occur, b...

Hi guys
I’m hard at work on The Keymaster. Part of setting up each character is choosing their clothes to match their personalities, right down to the basics. These images give you the idea.
Eleanor is a teenager who likes pink:
And for a bit of variety.....

Ellie has an older sister, Jessica. She's the next character in The Keymaster for you......
Jessica's easy on the eye, but she's also kind of serious and a bit bossy. The upside is she organises the family. Relationships with her can change gradually through the game, hopefully in a way that we all find enjoyable 😉.

Now it's time to meet Lucy. Lucy Brightwater to be precise. Lucy likes fun.... and adventure..... and lots of you know what. I developed her for a project a few years ago but I abandoned that project so I could make Naughty Magic. I always liked Lucy as a character so I’ve resurrected her, aged her a couple of years and updated her look. Now she can play a big role in The Keymaster.
Hope you like Lucy! Jessica to come next........

Hi Guys,
I'd like you to meet Eleanor, or just Ellie to her close friends. She’s one of the main characters in my new project…. “The Keymaster”.
The Keymaster is my game after Naughty Magic. It has magic too, but the magic is quite different to the genie-led stuff in NM. The Keymaster also has pretty girls, travel and adventure, sexy girls, excitement and danger, and …. girls like Ellie. It will be a visual novel in the sense that the storyl...

Finally got V0.8 loaded! I've cleaned out all the glitches in the code and script and now I'm running through the many alternative paths to check for bugs and crappy dialogue or sub-loops or images. I make a list of additional images that I need as I go, so there is still some tweaking needed, but it's getting close to release!
Also time to make a few bug fixes identified in V0.7, mainly by a couple of the smarter dudes on the Naughty Magic game thread at F95. Some goo...

Sorry I haven’t posed for a while. I’m in a region that’s gone into severe lockdown and it’s really messed with my routine.
Good news is I have managed to do a lot of work on the text for week 8, which is now at around 45,000 words and a lot tighter than it was before. New images too.
I go into loading mode next, taking all the text out of a Word document and putting it into Ren’py. It’s a total pain in the arse, as almost every line needs “ “ marks and...
