Update 10/15 - H:TP 4 Preview starring Characters from the Pub Audiolog and Earndil's Musings on the Mage Game
🕑 Added 2023-10-15 13:32:00 +0000 UTCGreetings everyone, it's your favorite bi-weekly ogre writer, Earndil (if I am not your favorite, please leave your name and address in the comments and who you would prefer, so I can go to their home and shit in their toilet) back at it again with the Patreon Posts!
WHAT is going ON folks? I've been away primarily because Alfa insisted on doing the last few updates, and also work being evil and powerful against my will, but I am back now to write this blasphemous thing for Alfa's sake!
ONTO THE CONTENT.
HUNTER: THE PARENTING UPDATE
Work proceeds at pace, as is our usual modus operandi when we get this far into the project, everything has been collected, collated, and now artists are producing character art, backgrounds, and panels as fast as we're using them!
Unfortunately, a lot of our illustrators are still stuck in Fullbody Purgatory.
That means drawing fullbody versions of each character, depicting them from all angles and with different emotions, hand gestures, etc.
Both useful as references, and for a significant amount of scenes going forward.
In fact, you can see a few of these fullbodies in action in the video above!
Due to the amount of people showing up in this episode, there's a lot of characters that need fullbody'ing.
Fortunately, only a few are left!
Specifically, if you've listened to the Pub Audiolog, we got the big weebo Grimal, the hooliganoid Brok and his inexplicably belgian father Remold Blacklaw, as well as two totally new characters called Amanda and Matilda, that are left.
With those characters finally finished, things will immediately go faster, and that goes for ALL episodes after this one as well. These are assets that will be reused immensely.
With that though, have still no real estimate on release date (as far as Alfa has informed me), so keep your ears peeled as we go forward for updates.
NORFOLK WIZARD GAME
Beyond HTP #4, we have made strives in the MIGHTY NORFOLK WIZARD GAME HOSTED BY RESIDENT INSOMNIAC AND N.W.O. AFFICINADO SPEAKERD!
We've had three real, full sessions with him so far, and they've been rather fun, filled with entertaining characters, and an interesting plot that has all of us very much in his thrall (don't tell him that, it'll make his head very large and that's dangerous, the big head cutting man is loose!)
Chapter 1 is currently being edited by Dr. White (you may remember him from his role as Pyotr in H:TP, his YouTube Channel, and from the hit tv series "Not the face!") and we're working on getting that squared away in due order.
Response to even the Awakenings we released in Podcast format on Spotify and other Podcasting Apps has been quite positive, and that's EXTREMELY GOOD TO HEAR because we LIKE POSITIVITY.
As you might or might not know I am playing as Samson in the Wizard Game and, on a personal level, I've been enjoying the Magery very much since we've finally gotten into it.
Speaker proves to be as good as I've heard from all of his FRIENDS COMPEERS AND ALLIES, and he so far has lived up to EVERY EXPECTATION OF BEING A GOOD GM.
Except he needs to make more battle maps because I NEED VISUAL STIMULUS OR I IMAGINE THE WRONG THING.
But that is a minor quibble, it has been very good and very entertaining.
Samson is fun to play because being a combative jock whose only understanding of magic is through nerd crap is very funny. Also basket ball...
We haven't much else to report, but work is going well.
I will advise everyone to check your Patreon stuff to ensure it's all up to spec since this site has some VERY ENTERTAINING ISSUES SOMETIMES, and want people to get the most out of their support for us.
Oh wait there was another thing!
KEVIN PLUSH PROTOTYPE IN PRODUCTION.
YOU BASTARDS WANTED IT, SO YOU'RE GONNA GET IT.
MORE INFO TO COME SOON.
That's all I've got for this week's update, keep your ears peeled and your eyes opened for any further updates as we get on with everything!
Hope you all have a poppeng rest of your day!
Until next time, have a good one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kind of a weird random happenstance, but I am now head over heels into Masayoshi Takanaka and that is entirely because of Ogre Poppenang and I will forever be grateful for that. Thanks Grim!

I'll be honest, I find Elise really attractive. That smile is just really infectious and the way she dresses screams "STYLE!". That aside, I can already guess how Git and Spit got those cushy jobs, lol.

Norfolk Wizard Game is something I NEED. I listened to all the awakenings and now I gotta know where this game is going. Every part of the narrative description is fantastic, and Speaker giving the dark, Eldritch descriptions before revealing it to be something absurd, but mundane is fantastic, I love it.

Oh man, Harry looks so much more huggable
