Ava Updated
Ava has 5 new body shapes available in game as of "Right now"As you can see, one of them is 6'9" and quite #Bustilicious!Excelsior!
Back to work with a vengeance!
Hello Testers and supporters,Let’s get started with the development progress. This weekend was dedicated to some hardcore coding both on the client side and the server side. Getting story-mode to work as something fun, and creating more meaningful dialog conditions, requires reworking some of the ...
What a difference 30 inches make!
Hi, I'm Snotling. (CEO of Bloopers Studios.)This is, as promised a double sized rendering update, and then some. A typical renders update has 5 body shapes, this one has 12.With this update, testers can grow Olivia up to 8 feet tall (!!!) and get a 'height accurate' image on screen.Thing...
Where is my update?
I spent most of the weekend working at recovering parts of my DAZ library. Collateral of the last system failure.There are lots of things in the computing world you learn not to put your trust in when you're actually depending on your tools to deliver content.Cloud services : They just don't...
Release A7, bugfixes + Game Reset
Hi Patrons,I managed to get a release out, to address the recently reported bugs, despite the computer problems I had this weekend.Game Client: http://bit.ly/SetupFSI strongly advise removing the previous version before installing. Since I had to reinstall everything from scratch for my PC to run, t...
Bad news : No coding or rendering this weekend.
UPDATED: Repairs seem successful, I'm fixing bugs. I might be able to release A7 on Monday night after all.-----It seems my venerable machine is truly reaching the end of its useful life. Looks like it might be the motherboard... If it's truly the case, the project will be on hold until i ca...
How should spice be balanced?
As a side note, 5 new Body-shapes for Jack have been uploaded. I know, they're not the most exciting but they certainly were the most overdue. Next week, it's Olivia's turn so be ready for a new record height in the Funky-Spice PC-game.Question:How should the Funky-Spice effect be balanc...
Cleaning-up
Hello followers,Since A6 is online, most of my time has been spent fixing various minor glitches and issues as they were reported. I also just wired Extra funds to players in need so that they may keep on pushing the game into the 2nd semester.A bunch of renders have been added as well but they'...
Release A6 is ready for download
Hi Patrons!This is quite a big one, I spent one more day than I planned in Quality Assurance doing regression testing but if it means no game-breaking issue in the package, then it'll be all worth it. (If issues are found, well at least I tried...) Link: http://bit.ly/SetupFSAs you can expect, s...
Just how tall is Ava?
Well, ever since she started eating more and more spice and outgrowing the people around her... Ava kind of changed attitude as well.Her opinion about high heels changed too. Or maybe its just that she's wearing Olivia's hand me downs to save money. Ava is only 6'4" on the picture bu...
Olivia has been eating her spinach!
Either that or some Funky-Spice and she must have been hitting the gym or something because those look like 16" Biceps!On her 7'1" and almost 350 pounds frame they don't look out of place at all, you'll only notice it when she flexes for her brother at the gym!But everything is n...
Olivia can now grow to 6'9"
This is the latest op 5 body shapes patrons!She's also gotten a little thicker where it counts ;-) Of course, she's wearing stripper boots to make it even more dramatic!On a more serious note, a tester has officially confirmed that the game crashes when you reach the first semester's fin...
Top 5 requested body shapes uploaded
Hi Supporters,This is how it mostly goes every week or so. I create and render the missing body shapes the most requested by the game client. Each of these top 5 batches (excluding Oliver) are roughly 40-50 renders, its a rythme of production that I have judged to be sustainable, One time I tried to...
Next Patreon reward Poll
Hi Patrons!its already the middle of the month, so I'll be working (or not, depending on this poll...) on the monthly reward.Now, would you guys rather:
Release A5 uploaded
Game client: http://bit.ly/SetupFSHello Patrons!Release A5 fixes some Spice bugs where some spice effects would not apply once an attribute was maxed out.Also, I'm using this opportunity to bring the movie theater into the game , along with a cosmetic upgrade to Oliver's laptop (Thanks to La...
Version A4 is Released!
Hello Testers,This is a big one and it had its load of issues leading to it. First off, my venerable computer had an incident in the middle of rendering the August reward, which Required me to spend two days repairing it (Had to reinstall windows, DAZ and Visual Studio…) Getting everything to work...

Hi Guys, I just sent the rewards, so check your private messages!I have also updated the Alpha access rights, so the new Members can get in the game.If there is any kind of problem, just write me a message.
Olivia at 6'7" in flats!
No, its not a camera trick! 40 new renders of Olivia have been uploaded minutes ago.Right now, you'll need luck on your side to see them but build A4 coming after labor day will make it much easier to see her tower over her brother in game!
Almost 2000 renders uploaded!
Yeah... just don't get too excited, over 1800 of them are renders of Oliver. Mainly because whenever Oliver has a new body shape, this body shape needs to interact in 3 outfits and with characters ranging from 5' tall to 10' tall, his eyes and head following the eyes of the other charact...
Game development choices...
Hi everyone,there are good things things going on in the alpha test.1- Some testers are really enthusiastic and have grown the girls once again beyond the 2nd set of Renders!2- There are fewer game breaking bugs than I expected.3- Someone has sort of offered to give me a hand. I'm not saying who...
Game client updated!
You can download the most current version from this URL: http://bit.ly/SetupFS Remember this is "alpha" software, backwards compatibility is not supported so saved games of previous versions are lost.This is both to avoid unfortunate game play issues and to bring testers back to early game f...
Catching up on renders
Hey Patrons/Testers!thanks for pushing the game forward, you have grown the girls beyond my pre-rendered sizes, now I need to catch up.So if you encounter a point in the game where you have an invisible character in the scene, its because I'm working on it.yup, that's why they call it ALPHA!...
Alpha Game client updated
A few bug fixes I made during the weekend.Testers can use the same download link as the original build.An unfortunate but necessary drawback is that all saved games from the previous game version have been made obsolete.here is an extract from the release notes:Release A3----------------------------...

Has Oliver been outgrown by his mom?
Or is she wearing heels?Doesn't she look younger, curvier than before?In any case, I've been rendering images for conversation actions in the game this weekend! (Except during that darned power-outage...)The game now has enough images to compose conversation events for the alpha test startin...
Back in the saddle.
Hello Patrons and followers!After 2 weekends with no work being done on the game because of real life interference (moving to a new apartment) I'm back at work and rendering!So as you will soon see for yourself, the game relies on pre-rendered images to create the scenes. Each character needs to...
July Reward!
Hey there Patrons!This is the only work done this week, I'm moving to a new apartment and as you might expect it limited my capacity to work on the game, also I'm a few days without broadband until my ISP comes for re-connection.The ZIP file contains all the images fora sample "date"...
The game runs fine on Windows 7/8!
I can't promise perfect support for those who will chose to run the Funky-spice game on windows 7 computers because I don't have a test machine on hand most of the time. Also, well... Not even Microsoft supports Windows 7 anymore. But today I had an opportunity to make a test run on windows ...
Fixing Bugs for Alpha release
Besides rendering as many game images as possible before real people actually get to try the game, I'm also working on the first alpha build... I encountered a bit of a snag related to DateTime format compatibility between the Client and the Database when installed on a computer running on other...
Hosting is all set, including images!
So, last week I setup the server hosting game data. This weekend I started working on compiling the installer, Good thing I still have a couple of weeks before Alpha launch because I've encountered an interesting challenge with the game client after install, the images folders were broken.I thou...
