Patch 0.9.2

Just a few tidbits before working on the new contents for the next release:

  • This patch removes a serious lag issue caused by inefficient use of character material layers, now allowing players to spawn multiple orc fantasies on the scene. If placed correctly next to one another, they will also engage into foreplay between themselves. Removal of fantasies can be done by holding Ctrl before spawning a new one
  • Lighting rendering was changed to deferred mode, removin...

Patch 0.9.1

This patch version tackles the following issues:

  • Fap+move bug
  • Foreplay engagement while seated/laying down/etc
  • Beard stubble not showing on the player's orc

This version also comes with a full and optimized rework of the arm and leg IK system, relieving a great deal of computing performance.

Version 0.9.0

Taking into consideration the feedback provided by the players after the previous release, the following issues were addressed:

  • Removed thousands of landscape boulders that seemed to be redundant and mostly invisible, but forcing framerates to take a dip.
  • Changed rendering mode of the UI, from pixel-perfect to smooth. It appears the feature tends to cause slowdowns.
  • Optimized some of the processes in the Orc's code, though there are still many ...

Patch 0.8.4

This patch version addresses critical performance and interface issues reported by the community, such as:

  • Inn scene loading multiple times and causing a serious overlap of assets and framerate drops
  • Interface lockups when pressing Esc while running
  • Movement lockup when pressing Z or X while running
  • Restoring old shadows shader in order to gain some frame speeds
  • LOD adjustment to tree meshes around forested areas of the game
  • Optimizations of I...

Patch 0.8.X

A critical patch addressing the deformation and texturing issues in 0.8.0 is now available in the downloads section. Please let me know in the comments below if this solves the aforementioned issues!

EDIT: Newer version 0.8.2 now available, since the previous one didn't quite solve the problems.

EDIT: 0.8.3 now available. Patches the following issues:

Version 0.8.0

This version features shy (yet internally hardcore) steps towards basic foreplay through a simple kissing mechanic that can be triggered near other orcs. To use it:

  • Approach your favorite orc and stand close enough in front of him. (I do not recommend trying this while seated)
  • Press K to "lock on" him. An alternative camera mode will be enabled if done right.
  • Mouse button 1 to play between two different kiss animations....

Patch 0.7.3b1

After a hard session of work and going back and forth between my development PC and a borrowed iMac, I managed to get rid of the texturing issue that was affecting most iMac and MacBook users (at least, fixed for most of them). Your orcs should once again be properly rugged.

You can grab the fix here

Patch 0.7.1

Patch upgrades Unity engine to version 5.5.2 and addresses the day cycle issue when using an old settings file. It also limits the texture sizes to the maximum resolution allowed by the system that is running the game.

Servers have also been restored to their usual speed, so hopefully it won't take you eight hours to download this one!

Texture issues

 As you may know, recently the shader in charge of rendering character textures has been modified in order to take advantage of hardware accelerated texture mixing, right now mostly used by the character's hair patterns.  

The reason behind this change was that I was running out of texture space for other features, and needed to find a way to mix some of those textures into one. Unfortunately, graphics blitting (the technique in place right now) does not seem to be compatible with ve...

Version 0.7.0

This new version brings closure to Bo's quest line (the third orc) and also throws some extra exposure about the events taking place around the weird realm of smex they are all trapped in. Other changes include:

  • Rework and optimization of materials and their respective shaders, in order to allow more flexible layers of color and skin details (better tattoos and markings, the system for the current ones sucked)
  • Rearrangement of Celik's quest line at the very beginning, in order t...

January status update

Since development was focused on changes and improvements done under the hood, such as optimization of shaders and animation, a payout release candidate with elements relevant to the interest of all of you (more sex scenes, more story updates, etc) could not be prepared for this month., and I felt it was better to leave it for a release coming later during February.

Another big reason for this delay will be that I needed to take it easy during January, after a long year of work pretty muc...

Version 0.6.0

I'd like to start this update by wishing you all a happy new year; 2016 was quite the weird one, misunderstood and overshadowed by tragic and bizarre news happening all over the world. Heads up, our ozone layer is finally recovering.

Bonfire quietly received it's usualy dose of development during this busy month full of celebration and family gathering; really hoped I could add some seasoning to it (a santa hat here and there...). This time I decided to focus on polishing rather than cont...

Version 0.5.0

A new version featuring the third quest line on the first steps of implementation is now available!

Rough around the edges and still needing dedicated animation work, but already exposing a lot about the backstory, through dialogues delivered by the new orc, Bo, who can be found right away without needing to complete the previous quests (for now). 

He has actually been there on the previous two versions for the alternate missionary sex pose. This time though, he will instruct you to...

Patch 0.4.4

This patch update will not charge any patrons

A critical update that attempts to reduce the chance of encountering a crash that happens when trying to fuse with Oriol, as well as while closing the game.  Given that it is entirely Unity's fault, it is still likely to happen even after this: just restart the game as soon as it happens, your progress will be saved and the fusion sequence can happen as normal after the fresh restart.

Other implementations in this demo:

Patch 0.4.3f

 This patch update will not charge any patrons 

Attempts to solve the following issues:

  • Spinning camera bug when holding down the left mouse button. Still not sure if this will solve the issue as I have no way to reproduce it myself.
  • Broken hand animation during oral sequence (Oriol)
  • BeeSwarm de-spawn bug, after punching beehive

As for the new features:

  • Changes to the skin shader in order to render sweat, which will appea...

Patch 0.4.2

This patch update will not charge any patrons

This version enables fusion with Oriol, after the 2nd quest is completed and synchronized orgasm is achieved.  Aftermath dialogues have also been included, which should bring closure to the little bee adventure involving the red guy (for now!)

Minor details include the ability to change the thickness of your junk and an option to limit it's size (for NPC characters) found in the game options, for those who don't really fancy ver...

Version 0.4.0

As usual, download it from this post

This version includes a preview of the next sequence: a front variation of anal, which can be found in one of the stone circles near Oriol (right where some of you found a mysterious white cube; now it comes in the form of a sexable orc!)

Much like the oral sequence that came before it, right now it's missing its respective quest, just to allow you to tast...

Patch 0.3.1

It took some days of nasty and extensive fighting against catastrophic bugs in order to upgrade the game engine to a newer version (Unity 5.4.1), and while I'm not sure if it's perfectly stable, I can't let it grow into a bigger disaster without having you all test it. This version of Bonfire is pretty much the same as the previous, but with a few things related to quest events fixed, such as the beehive bug.

Version 0.3.0

Available in the downloads section ò3ó

Implements most of the quest line elements related to the second encounter, which becomes available right after Celik's awakening and his respective fusion are completed. 

Oriol, the red guy, can be found somewhere near his original location from the previous demo, and speaking with him will kickstart the new fetch quest.

Summer break is over

I got involved into some family-related travelling back to my hometown for the entire month of August and part of September, a period which I decided to use as a vacation (but then not really, as I literally kept working on this almost every day).

Progress on the next release, regardless, remained steady but without the possibility to release minor demo updates thanks to my currently limited connection speed; quite the load, this game is!


Currently working on the 2nd quest, w...

Version 0.2.0

As usual, available in the downloads section!

This version was intended to be the first one featuring most of the visual and audio changes seen in 0.1.2, but given the heavy use of new shaders and sky system, I felt it was necessary to test them prior to this release.

Other than those, the elements that will form part of the 2nd orc encounter have been established, and can be fou...

Version 0.1.2

Mostly featuring graphics and functionality changes and overall polish on the previous version. Some of the additions are new and not optimized, which calls for proper user testing! Features include:

- A day-night cycle is now in place and can be enabled in the game options; disabled by default, as it is a bit taxing on lower end machines

- Procedural music engine

- Patron totems

- Orc shader texture baking changes in order to include a tattoo layer

- New nose f...

Viral threat report

I am getting a few reports from people, mostly using the public version of the game (0.0.3) that their antivirus program labels the game as a threat.

I am running multiple scans on each of the files, and can guarantee that they are compiled on a perfectly clean computer and that my Windows Defender (any other AV, quite honestly, acts worse than a virus itself) reports nothing.


If you do find a threat, or kindly offer to scan the files and downloaded zip archives, please let me kn...

Version 0.1.1

A new version is now available here! Featuring ability to save multiple orc profiles, automatic quest saving and a free sex camera mode, as well as the reward of automatic sex mode (without orgasm, for your viewing pleasure!) after successfully achieving the first synchronized climax and the whole fusion scene.

Other internal changes include full OS mouse support, with the removal of virtualized mode:...

Character profiles

Since many of you were wondering if at some point the ability to save many characters would be available, I've decided to implement it together with the character savestates, another feature that keeps track of character relationships and quest lines.

Other new details include changes to the interface for better readability, and implementation of EverLoop's procedural music package.

Release deadline delay

I should inform that the deadline for the next major internal release has been pushed from it's originally intended end-of-May goal by a few days.

To put it simply, the amount of work was overshot and I fumbled up! many of the new features implemented during the last two weeks require a considerable amount of polish, which I felt was essential for a proper major release.


The issue is mostly related to unfinished interface and mechanics, and one or two sexy animation clips ...

Development blog

Right now Patreon offers a very poor posting system that barely lets me show any digital content other than one image and many (almost hidden) attachments that tend to go unnoticed  by most people. I pretty much found myself flipping tables as I kept trying to understand it.

 

While important and exclusive demo content will still be delivered through here, I've decided to create a tumblr development blog for small highlights. A link to the blog can be found 2016-05-21 16:30:12 +0000 UTC View Post

Patch release 0.0.3

Another small release featuring an in-game options screen that, for now, only contains one setting that will allow players to switch mouse input to standard OS control, meaning that it will no longer be "virtualized" and mixed up with joystick input on some setups.

Additionally, changes were made to the way body hair is distributed on your character, after many suggestions were given. The body hair slider now affects how far the hair pattern spreads rather than just the opacity of the whol...
