A couple of weeks ago, I decided to get a nice big library of Daz figures poses clothing and accessories. Here's some pics made with that stuff.
I decided to start experimenting with couples poses, starting with Female-Female couples. These involve poses to apply to two figures that are supposed to match up so they are interacting. It rarely works that easy.
The figures are ju...

The heavy cold this week made me feel less than creative. The next thing I need to do is write the beginning of the first date between the player and Relay and I'm struggling with inspiration, so I decided to try and making some test shots.
First I decided to give Relay the casual outfit, with the purple top and black capris. Relay greets you and invites you in to sit on the couch.<...

This is the first Patreon exclusive update of Dating in a World on Fire. For this very incomplete version (there is only one added scene to the demo) I am offering it to all levels of paid Patreons. The next version will be Dater level and above.
I'm offering two ways to get it:
1. You can download an attached version below
2. You can log in to itch.io and get it at...
I'm mostly done with chapter 1, the introduction of the game. The second chapter focuses on the first date between the player and Relay. I haven't really started making it yet, just making test images, so I thought I'd share some.
What I wanted to experiment is Relay's "First Date" outfit. ...

After the public release of the demo for Dating in a World on Fire, I of course started working on the game this past week. I got the second section done this week except for voicing it, because I used up all my voicing to finish Ariane in Paradise last week so I need to wait for next weeks reset.
I decided on my website to do a picture of the week with a re-rendere...

Hopefully this will be enough ...

Boss lady wasn't that thrilled to participate since she wasn't nude in the game anywhere. Paula answered, "Well neither was I,...

I finally finished the "voicing" of Ariane in Paradise, and did basic testing to make sure it works. The patch works best with version 1.20 or 1.21, with only the Spanish translation still broken. I have a plan to fix it.
Because the combined patch is too big I had to split it up. Go to this post and dow...

Last year I did a holiday picture featuring the characters from games I made on 2022, so I decided to continue the practice for 2023. This first picture is from assorted games. Relay is made in Daz Studio and I had to "billboard" her in. I'm guessing she will be more prominent next year.
Last year's wall picture was from a Ukrainian artist. This years is a Banksy street art photo pa...

I wanted to finish the voicing of the Day 2 section, but I don't get more allowance until next week. That gave me a week to finish doing code corrections and redoing some graphics like I started last week.

Last week I showed you a new "Christine" in Ariane in Paradise. I realized there is one more place where she shows up: The final party in the "bonus".

This week I have been voicing the Day 2 hiking trail path, and I'm done. That means I only need the Day 2 beach, coral reef, taco stand, casino, bird sanctuary, and sailboat ride left to voice.
Anyways, as I voice and replay the game to test the voicing, I am finding the occasional detail I probably should change. The character of Christine, used an experimental model that hasn't worked out. H...

More nude pics in the bedroom, this time experimenting with different lighting and trying to sit on the bed, instead of lie in it. Again mostly doing these to learn Daz Studio better.
Learning Daz has not been much of a focus as I have been working on getting the voicing updates done.
October was a busy stressful month IRL, but I've cleared the decks for November to focus on my games. I've got 3 projects to bounce between. First, I'm starting the voicing of Ariane in Paradise, Second, I want to generate a broad outline for my next game, and third I want to learn Daz better and produce more test images that I can share with you patrons.

With actors and writers strikes damaging movies and TV this year, it seems for 2023, video games are the exciting media. Several new titles and sequels, both good and bad have been released this year.

I'm still very much in "research mode", in other words playing other games, to get ideas. Part of which is also learning Daz Studio better.

The theme this month has been currently popular video games, so lets finish it out with a little Cyberpunk in honor of Cyberpunk 2077 getting 2.0 and a new DLC. I haven't played the new version yet, but I played the hell out of the older version.
Anyways, thought I'd use a new "Cyberpunk Club" set I haven't shown off yet and a black leather outfit to go with it.
As promised, I finished a first draft of voicing the entirety of Date Ariane Remastered. You need version 1.2 (the current version on Steam and Itch.io) or 1.3 (the "patch" from last month). This patch includes last months patch, so you don't need to patch twice, if you didn't get it.
If you are new to Patreon patches, it involves downloading the zip file and extracting to where yo...

In the "Nude Date" Diner scene, the waitress takes off her clothes too, for no explicable reason.
