Wallpaper Galleries

A collection of well over a hundred wallpapers from Love of Magic, Morningstar: Book of the Fallen and Wings of Empire, in 4K, 8K and Ultrawide resolutions.

Ever since Imgur nuked my wallpaper collections I've been looking for a good replacement (one that handles 5-10MB 4k images, and doesn't mind the occasional nipple). I'm now testing out Google Photos, since I recently upgraded file storage there.

They're arranged by game, and I will try to remember to upgrade it as I go.

Localization update

Looking at the process, scripts and gotchas in using LLMs like ChatGPT for bulk-translation of AVNs.

A while ago I did a post on Localization; with the first pass of Love of Magic's translation entering the wild, I figured I should do a pass through it, look at what worked, and what hacks and solutions were employed to make things work.

There are essentially two core parts of the translatio...

September Wallpapers

I made the mistake of using Lin as a model when I wanted to illustrate something; by the time I realized what was happening, a day had gone by, and I figured I'd share them with you all.

I was discussing poses and facial expressions for a character encountering an accidental wet t-shirt moment (as you do), and Lin volunteered to model the shirt for me.

I liked the resulting look eno...

Wings of Empire Act II complete

With Act II now complete done, I'm doing the first "public release". It contains the first 38 days of mainline content, about 3-4 hours worth of gameplay, and romantic (err...) encounters with the first 6 girls. The Sandbox is fully set up, the first three minigames (tactical map, racing and shooting) are done, and now it's just a matter of writing the rest of the story :)

Like Love of Magic this is planned as a trilogy, spanning more or less 15 acts in 3 books. The journey's just gett...

Wings of Empire Wiki + Act II release candidate and Steam Keys

(The title feels long enough to belong to one of those Japanese Animes).


So, the big news is that Act II has a release candidate. There's a lot of content here, so hopefully you all enjoy it :)

I'm also done setting up the Steam Keys for Wings of Empire (it was previously sitting on the Development Branch of Morningstar), and have started handing them out to supporters. If you want a key,...

Wings of Empire: Act II Main Story complete

It's taken a while, diving into Unreal Engine 5, rendering and writing, but Act II's now complete, with day 39 marking the end of the first big arc.

So what's left, before I mark the Act fully complete?

All three wingmates belong in the Harem, of course. So far Astrid has raced ahead, with two scenes... I need to balance that up with romantic events for Arya and Amber as well.

July Wallpapers

Looks like Bella and Elanora won the Wallpaper competition this month, a result I'm totally okay with. I made SFW-ish and full nudes in 4K and ultrawide format, playing around with reflective glass for these.

I also got inspired to keep... going, as it were, making a couple of me and mom shots for ...

July wallpapers

I really enjoyed the June wallpaper challenge, so I'm doing it again for July. Vote for any girls you want, top two gets a new wallpaper.

If the girl you wanted to see isn't in the poll, drop a note in the comments and I'll see what I can do for August.2025-07-02 05:17:23 +0000 UTC View Post

Project update: Wings of Empire

With day 33 now done, I'm closing up on the end of Act II of Wings of Empire.

The last few days has been much more space-focused, with lots of cutscenes shot in UE5, like the cover video. I quite like how the colors came out on that one.

Act II is intended to end on day 38, though I have a couple of big events to fit into the last 5 days. It'll also mark the first 'public' release, though...

Wallpapers

So, I did a poll last week for who people wanted a special render of; the winners were Emily (perhaps unsurprising) and Cass (who did surprise me). I did however enjoy the idea, so I sat down and put together a couple of wallpapers. Base resolution is 8k, with 4k and ultra-wide versions attached underneath.

I'm aware that not everyone wants semi-naked girls on their desktop, so I also...

Special renders

I've been pretty focused on Wings of Empire recently, with most of the effort going into finishing up Act 2. With Day 30 and 31 done, I've got another 3-4 days left before the act is done (depending on whether I cut before or after the cliffhanger)

Occasionally I do 'special renders' (like this day 30 4k wallpaper), but it tends to be a case of images that catch my eye as I work.

Setting up Localization

I've mostly been working on Wings of Empire recently, where the main story has reached day 30 (and most of the way to the end of Act II), but I took a couple of days to integrate a Chinese localization a Patreon sent me.

I've had people attempt localizations before, from quick google translate passes to a Russian team who approached it with loving care but buckled under the sheer scope of the story. Across the 3 games Love of Magic's got more text than the Lord of the Rings books combin...

Roadtrip to Edinburgh

I recently re-visited Edinburgh, and figured I'd do a quick video sharing some of the real-life places that inspired the game. Includes the real-life inspiration for the Crowley, visits to to Khukuri, The Last Drop, and a night-time hike up Arthur's seat to catch the sunrise.

Omnia vincit Amor; et nos cedamus Amori.

"Love conquers all; let us too yield to love." (Virgil, Eclugues).

A slightly delayed Easter greeting :) Cass (from Wings of Empire) and Lin (from Morningstar) wishes all of you a fruitful and enjoyable Easter, and an amazing spring.

Since I'm busy coding the combat system, the GPU was feeling lonely; here's a quick 4K of two of the best side-girls, and a small lighting experiment with more abstract lights.

Behind the scenes: UE5

I quite enjoy making these little behind-the-scenes updates; this time I'm looking at how space-based cutscenes are being made in UE5 for Wings of Empire.

The logic for doing them in Unreal Engine comes down to a few things:

• Realtime rendering. This is a huge improvement over Blender or Daz, with a 1,500 cutscene rendering in ~3 mins instead of 24 hrs.

• Better support for scripting. I intend to automate a lot of the heavy VFX lifting (think capital ships...

Wings of Empire: Act I (The Eagle)

After tinkering with the Sandbox for a while, Wings of Empire's Act I (Day 1-17) is now complete. It introduces the major characters, a whole lot of sandbox content and of course some spicy scenes.

While there's only 17 days in-game, there's ~40 days worth of additional sandbox content, mostly centered on the gym and the bar. Get to know your wing-mates, spend some time flirting with the Legion girls...

The Ladies of the Fae

With the work on Book 3 New Game+ wrapping up (I'm hoping to push it live early next week), I got a request for a wallpaper of the three Fae Ladies.

I hadn't ever actually planned on making sexy content for the Morrigan, but somehow she snuck in a scene. Should hopefully be in today's build

Wings of Empire update

With day 17 complete, the main story content of Act I is done. I've still got a fair chunk of work to do before it gets its public debut, but I'm happy with how things are coming together. The goal is a public release in early March 2025.

The central harem have now all been introduced, and you've gotten to know Valeria, Cass, Keira, and your Wingmates.

What's in so far and what's left to do?<...

Wings of Empire steam page live

I've been beavering away over Xmas, and quite a lot of things have been updated.

First of all, the Wings of Empire steam page is now up.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3203710/Wings_of_Empire/

If you can give it a Follow and a Wishlist, those are huge thing for helping it have a successful release down the road. Each is a sign to the Steam algorithm that this is a real gam...

Merry Xmas and a progress update

It's the time of the year when we eat too much, drink too much and decompress a little.

I figured I should do a quick status update, where I am on the various projects. It's been a pretty crazy couple of months, but at least I figure I've been productive :)


Love of Magic Book 2 NG+ is quietly beavering away, having added two new scenes (one with Kath, and one with Kath/Bella), and comple...

Ask me anything... :)

I'm doing an AMA over on reddit today, come keep me company, and ask any questions about development or marketing of adult games.

Amber from Wings of Empire

It's not really suitable for a wallpaper (too much white color), but I liked the lighting and pose enough that I did a quick 4k render of this closeup for Amber.

I've always had a fascination with eyes, and facial expressions; it's one of the things I really enjoy about rendering.

I also accidentally stumbled over this pose for Astrid, one of the other Wingmates. This is from her a...

Morningstar direct download links

I know not everyone wants their adult games associated with Steam, so I've updated the page of direct downloads with the latest version (1.0.1b) of Morningstar.

The last week's been pretty crazy, lots of bug-hunting, and a big influx of new players to my Discord, which is always a treat :) In the background I've been quietly rendering away a...

Wings of Empire

With Morningstar now complete I've started working on what hopefully will become the next big game; a Space Opera called Wings of Empire.

Wings of Empire takes place in a world where the Roman Empire never fell, and eventually clawed its way to the stars. There it is locked in a Cold War with the Chinese-descended Commonwealth.

Morningstar: Story complete & Localization

I finished the story last weekend, and now I'm spending the last few days before 11/11 tinkering with the main game.

One of the the most frequent requests for any AVN is localization (Chinese and Korean, especially). I've used Google Translate before, but honestly it sucks. With the new generation of LLMs (Large Language Machines, like ChatGPT) I figured I'd take a second stab at it. So far it gets 95% of it really quite well... that only leaves ~5% to manually fix :|

I'll see i...

Morningstar Progress

With launch a few weeks away it's busy days for me. I'm still on schedule for 11/11, though it's a little tighter than I'd like :)

 I'm finishing up the last dueling date of the game (Day 109); a lot of times both Katie and Emily has a date-night on the same week-day, which in retrospect might have been a poor life-choice :)

It's a little melancholic to know this is the last date I writ...

Progress Update

I wanted to let everyone know how things are going; it's been a busy couple of months.

The main thing on my mind is of course Morningstar. Day 101 is being written right now; it's hopefully going out to the Development branch tomorrow.

I spent some time over the weekend doing achievements; the goal is to get the achievement build out tomorrow, along with day 101. Morningstar's right now got 42 achievements, through some of them can't be completed yet (finishing the various path...

I think most of you have seen these as they were created, but I figured I might as well collect them all in one place.

Morningstar Act V: Kingdom Come complete

With the testers reporting less issues today, I think Act 5's more or less complete. It's gotten... bigger... than planned :)

I originally planned to make an Act+ release (so not moving the main story forward); that's all in here, with new stories for Lin, Snowdrop, Saoe, Saffron and Mu Lau.

I did, h...

Morningstar update: The Maze

I had a plan to make a replayable dungeon, similar to the Paths in Love of Magic (and the Shadow World of Persona, where I originally borrowed the idea from). I decided to theme it on Katja's tarot cards; I really enjoy how that ended up working out.

There's more writing to do there; unique individual stories to explore, more allies and monsters to add to the mix, and treasure to collect, but the fundamentals are now working pretty well.

Apart from that, I've got a few optional ...
