Hi Everyone!
I'm still working on emails so thank you for your patience. I just wanted to drop everyone a line to say that we're safe, though I anticipate we're going to need to evacuate sometime in the next 48 hours.

Hey Everyone!
It's Monday! Let's take a look at what went on last week!
Since my first full day of programming was Saturday last week (late start plus tons of emails) I decided to put my nose to the grindstone for the last 10 days and get as much done as possible. I got quite a lot done, too! The ability to make completely new friends and avatars in the Besti SDK is functioning now, and...

We're building a larger dedicated production space out of the garage. Very shortly we're going to need to have multiple people here working on things, so we need a place that can have multiple people in it comfortably.

Hi Everyone!
It may be Wednesday but the build came out on Monday! Sorry it took some extra time to get the rest of the week tied up and get this post (and others) up!
This week has a new build of Besti 9 with a bunch of new AI behaviors! Surprise! I realized Sunday that I wasn't going to have the new Besti X build done, so I switched gears and created content for this week.

Hey Producers!
Here's a 4K render of the painting I made for the build on Friday. It turned out super well, I think. While the idea was to make the IWTCIRD pose shown from underneath, it kind of looks like she's about to take off and go flying. Very dynamic.
It's attached to this post as a file!

Hi Subscribers!
This is a pretty special video this week! Not only is it the normal director commentary, it's kind of a behind-the-scenes documentary on what a relatively normal week of working on Besti looks like for me over here. It's probably pretty dull if you're not into this sort of thing, but if you like to see how things work/come together you might dig it. The goal was to kind of invite you over to the off... 2020-08-04 00:53:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Last week was a pretty busy one, and while I worked on Besti X stuff for some of it, I also finished setting up the awesome voice pack that was written and performed by Dalken. From the moment we spoke on Discord I knew he would make an incredible one, and he definitely came through. He wrote it as both a Besti 9 and Besti X voice pack, so it's a fully... 2020-07-07 01:45:00 +0000 UTC View Post

I was hoping to have this done today but it's just not ready yet. The avatar system ended up getting more features this week so that pushed this out a little bit. I thought about rushing it and I just couldn't. We've spent too much time on it and want it to have more polish and more of the Besti X systems in it.

As for the b-roll footage I used instead of visibly demonstrating stuff: it's not a secret I'm a huge fan of StarCraft. I'm not particularly good at it though, because I don't have enough time to sit there and play it. For whatever reason, people always curse me out when I win.

Hi Everyone!
It's Monday! Servers are updated, but I don't have any new builds this week. EVERYTHING took longer than it should have and what I scheduled to take a single day (avatar creation in the Besti SDK) ended up taking the entire week, and I was even working on it until this afternoon. That's just part of development sometimes, and sometimes it works in the opposite way, too.
Usually when this happens it's due to featur... 2020-06-22 23:24:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Done now though and it's lovely, functional, and doesn't make a sound unless I'm doing something CPU intensive.
