I cleaned up my topology, rig, and textures for Som's model, so I thought I should make a quick little animation to test things.
Really happy with how it turned out!

Hey everyone!
I'm back with another dev notes video!
For June I want to focus mostly on writing for the true endings of the game. Endings that require multiple playthroughs and represent the peak of the experience.
There will be three endings (Purity, Corruption, and a third one for players who have completed everything).
To me, this is what's missing for us to reach the Alpha milestone. So I'm really excited to have those put a nice bow on the whole thing.
I'l...

I was messing around with mods while waiting for roulettes and thought... Why not share that mask mod I made some time ago?
So here it is, enjoy the overwhelming powers of Corruption responsibly.
Replaces Crystarium Halfmask of Casting.

Hey everyone! Now that the new version is out, I'll be looking into making another animation in my free time.
Last time, I wanted to test out Fluid Simulations in Unreal 5 and do something with 2 actors.
This time I want to improve my workflow, have better rigging for my model but I don't have a particular idea for the subject of the animation.
I did model a Sombreve Mask, which would be a device to trigger massive growth/corruption, but I'm still thinking about who would wea...

Hey everyone~
Lots of fun stuff in this one, including setups for the true endings of the game, and new art for Kanathar and Lukka!
I'm super excited to finally have the skeleton of what will become the endgame.
Gonna make sure it's as good as it can be <3
Enjoy the new version!

Added option to "inspect the Eye of the Void" after it's fully repaired.

Hello!
I'm trying out a new format for the monthly production updates, something more like a Vlog.
Lemme know what you think of that format~
Cheers and have a good month of May!

There's always a bigger monster out there~ 😈💜
Ever since I saw the Fallen Venom design, I knew I had to make something with it. It's so good~
Really wanted to have fluid sims working in UE5, and have an animation with two characters going at it. Took around a month to get there but I learned a ton.
Enjoy~ <3

Hello!
Got another hotfix version up to fix the issue with the broken flow of Ethrex's storyline.
Once again, I recommend redownloading the files from the itch page and reloading your save file with it.
This hotfix won't require a newgame+ reset.
Sorry for the issues!

Hey everyone~
Got some pretty cool stuff for this version!
I've been planning to add some new content featuring Lukka for the longest time, and this month felt like a good moment to give him some love.
He now has a new quest after you've acquired your symbiote, complete it and you'll gain some much needed buffs for it to scale into the mid-late game!
Also, huge thanks to Winty for the new Ethrex art, I wanted him to grow into the biggest character in the game and his a...

Hello!
I hope you enjoyed the eclipse~
I always liked them as a powerful imagery but seeing it in person was something else. 💜
As of DoC, I was originally thinking about continuing the story with the Eye of the Void, and how it leads into the late game, but I need design it some more before committing to it. My idea is to have the Eye "reveal" certain parts of the game, showing the player the truth about this world and the universe its a part of.
But for this idea t...

Hey everyone~
Setting up new content for mid-late game that considers and adapts to the many choices players has been pretty challenging, but so rewarding <3
All that to say I got a fun new quest for you guys!
Make sure to visit Abel after learning about Nyx to get it started~
Enjoy the new version!

After learning about Nyx, you can now let Abel know about your discovery.

Heyyyy it's finally done!
Hope you enjoy this monstrous growth animation, I had a blast working on this.
It was a huge opportunity to learn Unreal Engine 5 too, I definitely feel like it will be my engine of choice from now on~
Cheers everybody <3

Hello everyone!
Spring is already here, but part of me still feels like it's 2022, crazy how time flies! Especially now that I don't have the stress of two jobs looming over me, I can really focus on the good stuff. <3
So what's the plan for March? Well now that the Abel story arc is split between its corrupted arc and its pure one, I wanna make special quests for each that will lead into some special content, stuff that will eventually become the "true en...

I finally took the dive and brought something I animated to Unreal Engine 5, and man, this engine is very promising.
DoC is still my focus but I try to spend around an hour a day into polishing this beast, hopefully it'll be out this month for Macro March. I forgot it was a thing until a few days ago, but now I can say it was the plan along (keep my secret pls).
Next steps are to put some lighting on the city, some spotlights on Som, more explosions, and look into ho...

Hello!
If you've been following my work outside of DoC, you might have seen that I've been learning the whole 3D art workflow in my free time.
Few months ago I finished my most recent Sombreve model and I'm slowly chipping at a new growth/macro animation with him.
Part of my goal is to be a better animator, but I also want to use this opportunity to have my model rendered in Unreal Engine 5 for future game projects.
Would you guys be interested in seeing some wip...

Hey everyone~
Got lots of game flow improvements and balancing for this one.
I'm finally working on the game full-time as of this week, so versions are gonna be bigger from now on~
For real, it feels amazing to finally have the time to do full playthroughs over and over and be able to tweak stuff ❤️
Enjoy the version!

Hey everyone!
It's gonna be a big month for me. This week is my last week at my day job and I'll finally be able to start working on Patreon work full time!
I gotta say, it's as exciting as it is terrifying, but this is something I needed to do for a long time. Honestly, I can't wait to be able to invest myself fully into my own projects and make then as good as I can.
My plan is to mainly focus on DoC, while exploring some future concepts to prototyp...

Hey everyone~
Loooooooots of stuff in this one, not sure where to even start honestly.
First of all, I really weanna give massive thanks to Myst and MuscleMage for their help on a bunch of improvements on this build.
They're beyond awesome <3
Story wise, we're inching further towards building Abel's arc.
Finally you'll be able to corrupt him enough for him to join you on your adventures, but to defile the herald appretice comes with important consequences...
