FindingBuddies

WIP 40

In the past few days, I’ve been improving several things in the game, and one of the updates I’m most excited about is the new facial expression system. Now, both in animations and in still images within the game, the characters’ faces look much more convincing and natural. I also refined their overall appearance — some had proportions that looked a bit off, like heads that were too big. The eyes, eyelashes, eyebrows, and textures have also been improved and now look much more realist...

Soldier Matheus is back, and this time it won’t be just a quickie in the barracks bathroom.

Matheus will serve as a tutorial — the first of many experiences Daniel will have throughout the game. Through these arranged encounters, Daniel will also have the chance to dive deeper into the stories of sec...

For the new chapter, I’ve been working on several environments — and one of them is this bar 🍻.
I want it to capture the essence of Brazilian aesthetics: plastic tables with beer logos scattered outside, a TV playing soccer, shelves packed with drinks … the kind of place where many meet after work to enjoy the night — or end up making it their second home .
To achieve this, I’m building everything from scratch, exploring textures, colors, and lighting that convey this atm...

WIP 37

Matheus, the soldier from the first chapter, along with other outdated characters, is still undergoing a remastering process. In addition to improving the graphics, materials, textures, rig, facial expressions, hair strands, and body hair, they are also receiving unique and distinctive features to make each one stand out.

Recently, I upgraded to a more powerful computer to render more characters in the same scene. I also acquired Character Creator and iClone to assist ...

Chapter 7 is coming

I'm thrilled to finally share with you the arrival of the long-awaited Chapter 7, which marks the beginning of a new phase in the story: the investigative arc. In this chapter, Daniel begins his search for answers, determined to uncover the mysteries of the past and the recent events involving his father. Along the way, characters he met in previous chapters may help him on this journey — or they may not.

My original plan was to relea...

WIP 36

For all returning characters from earlier chapters, improvements need to be made to match the graphical quality of the newer characters . After all, it would look odd to have the current Daniel standing next to Nicky’s old model from Chapter 3 . This is also a great opportunity to refine aspects I wasn’t happy with before and define each character more clearly.

The improvements include enhanced facial features and better facial harmony, while still preserving the characters’ ident...

While working on the remake of Finding Buddies, I've also been developing the next chapter of our story—Chapter 7! 📖 I'm thrilled about what's coming up: intriguing plots, deeper mysteries, and significant character developments, especially around Daniel and his relationships!

However, the remake is proving to be a bigger challenge than initially planned, and it's likely to take more time to deliver the final polished version. ⏳ Therefore, I'm consideri...

I’m thrilled to introduce the latest addition to the Finder app – Neremias!

He’s the third guy you can go on a date with—and hook up with. A rebellious, mysterious young man with a sharp sense of humor, a night with him is guaranteed to be unforgettable for Daniel.

Neremias also brings the longest and most detailed sex scene in the game so far, featuring nearly 20 videos, multiple loop videos, and a variety of sex positions. This will set the new standard for future sex scenes with ...

Hello everyone! 👋

I want to share more details about my plans for this new year of 2025, which I briefly mentioned in the YouTube channel video. 🎥

Finding Buddies started in 2022 as a test, without major intentions of continuing. At the time, I didn't have much knowledge, experience, or a well-defined workflow for development. Over time, the project became messy, bugs appeared , and the difference between the first and latest chapters became evident, bo...

Chapter 6 is available

I'm excited to announce the release of this new chapter! You can finally play it now—the sixth and final chapter of the first part of Finding Buddies.
You've been introduced to the story and its characters, and now it's time to dive into the main focus of the narrative. This will take center stage in the next phase coming next year

I hope you enjoy this new update.

Thank you for making it possible!

Chapter 6 is coming

I'm excited to officially announce that a new chapter of Finding Buddies is on its way!

This chapter is a major milestone, marking the beginning of Daniel's journey that will unfold throughout the game. It also signifies the end of the first season, paving the way for an exciting new season next year.

Expect the return of some familiar characters who will play a crucial role in the development of the story.

WIP 33

One of my long-time goals for Finding Buddies has been to integrate fabric simulation for character clothing. Not only does this add realism, but it’s also a significant time-saver compared to my previous animation methods. Before, I animated clothing folds manually using shape keys, sculpting each frame to create the look of fabric movement, which was very time-intensive.

To achieve this, I’m using Marvelous Designer, a tool I’ve worked with in the past. I had to br...

WIP 32

Some characters didn’t quite meet the visual quality of the main characters, and this needed to be addressed since they will appear more frequently in the game. As a result, they underwent a full remaster. Their hair is now more realistic; hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes are rendered separately, strand by strand.

The eyes play a crucial role in adding realism. Previously, the lack of shine, iris concavity, tearline, and proper shadowing made the eyes appear lifeless. These details have ...

Please note that the smartphone system is still a work in progress and may contain bugs. It's an ambitious feature that requires further development to be fully integrated and meet expectations.

Cláudio Quente has entered the Finder App, looking for some fun during his break from saving lives. With an extended sex scene, complete with looping videos and a climactic finish, this update is sure to raise the heat.

WIP 31

The scene with the new character from the Finder App is already in full development, along with the next chapter of the game. After considering the amazing suggestions I received from you, I’ve finally settled on Cláudio's profession. The idea of making him a police officer was quite popular, and although it fits his personality well, my intention is to keep the Finder characters separate from the main plot.

Additionally, I’m excited to incorporate more videos into the game—not j...

Meet the new Finder app character

The new character in the Finder app will be... Cláudio Quente! 🔥

Based on your suggestions in Discord, and taking a different direction from the previous character who was more of a twink, the new character will resemble Clark Kent, which seemed like a perfect addition to the game. With his popularity, stunning appareace, and muscular build, Cláudio, now in his 40s, is covered in body hair and fits perfectly into the "daddy" category. 🧔‍♂️💪

In the next chapter, new locations will be explored, including Daniel's house, specifically the bedroom of his father, Carlos, which had not appeared in previous chapters.
Carlos's room is disheveled, disorganized, and he never finds time to tidy it up. He sleeps amidst the clutter, not that he minds; he's more concerned with his work, cheering on his favorite futball team, drinking away his troubles, and having sex

In the remastered versions of the first chapters, environments like...

WIP 29

More penis models need to be created or revised for the new chapter of the game. Just as the characters eligible for relationships have diverse physical appearances, I also want their penises to be varied and to match the character's traits.
To enhance texture quality, I've decided to invest in paid height map skin textures, which have helped make the penis skin appear more realistic, especially in its normal map.
This penis belongs to a character who has appeared in previous chapters....

WIP 28

Development on Chapter 6 has already begun, and it will feature revisits to locations from previous chapters. However, the quality of these locations no longer matches that of more recent chapters, necessitating a remake. One such setting is Daniel's house, initially created for the game's second chapter. It was crafted hastily, with limited detail. This scene is also the most challenging and labor-intensive one yet, in both its versions, as it was built almost entirely from scratch, without ...

Chapter 5 is available

The new chapter of Finding Buddies is now available to play! I'm excited to show you what I've been working on over the past few months. Although it has been an extensive and ambitious chapter, Chapter 5 concludes the cycle of introducing the main characters and will start focusing more on the central storyline.

I hope you enjoy this new update.

WIP 27

One more app was needed to complete the smartphone system within the game. With Driber, Daniel will be able to freely move between the city and its surroundings.

The purpose of adding this feature is to make the campaign less linear, create points of interest, and progress in the story across the map that can be visited at the player's leisure. Secondary stories that don't necessarily need to be completed to reach the end of the game can be added to the map. This also integrates with th...

WIP 26

Animation is something I hadn't practiced until recently, and it has quickly become one of my favorite aspects of game development. It certainly takes more time to pose and keyframe each bone of the characters' bodies, sculpt flexed and relaxed muscles, and create facial expressions, compared to posing for a static image and rendering. However, the result of having a video between scenes is incredibly satisfying and much more immersive. It really makes the game stand out among other visual no...
