Rogue-Like 4/11 update
🕑 Added 2015-04-11 06:24:55 +0000 UTC Ok, this element is not done, but I got something decent enough to show for it so I figured I would. This is the basis of the first bespoke sex scene. I figured this pose would work for a couple of different elements, and for the time being this pose is what you get when you go for any of the direct sex sequences. This is intended to work with all costume options, facial features, etc. I still have to draw in a few of those and get them working right, and I also have to write the code and dialog for the actual scenes themselves (currently I can only play with the options in the editor), but I think it's a good start. Btw, you may notice that Zero (the default player name, but you can change it) is green. I decided to go with green to sidestep any distracting conversations about race and all that, remembering back to my youth when I could easily identify with a blue fuzzy elf, even though I'm not blue myself, while a lot of people seem to have trouble identifying characters that come in some human color that is not their own. I hope this works for everyone. I'm also, btw, strongly considering doing a female player avatar. So far that wouldn't actually involve a ton of extra work. I'd just need an alternate player sprite for this scene, using a strap-on or futa dick (player's choice, eventually), and a few altered options throughout the game. Most of the content is relatively gender neutral, and designed in such a way that I could just slot female alternate actions in where absolutely necessary (like orgasms), adjusting the reward mechanisms a bit (for example HJ's would be a lot less rewarding), and then adding in some straight lesbian actions, which would probably be needed by the time 3P support comes in anyways. Don't expect male love interests though, it would be a strictly lesbian female avatar. To that end, here's another poll, about which features you'd like me to focus on after finishing this sex scene. These are all things that are likely to happen, I just want to know which you'd like done FIRST. As for the first item, what I mean is that I will have pretty much every sex scenario I can think of in the game as mostly text-and-sprite scenarios like in the beta version, but would you want me to focus on adding more completely unique art assets, like say a scratch-built fondling or BJ scene, or would you rather I focus on newer elements? Btw, feel free to suggest any other scenes that you feel would require a unique image treatment. http://strawpoll.me/4095570

Patreon isn't great with sorting long term files. Check the activity feeds for those little paperclip corners. Here's the link for the game: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/creation?hid=1984031">https://www.patreon.com/creation?hid=1984031</a> the download links are right under the picture.

okay, I can't seem to find the download links anywhere

Thanks! I've actually been giving it some thought, and I might have a way to add some additional options without bloating the project too much. I need to test some things.

No objections to the green here. You just keep doing what you feel is right.

Well, the work involved on my end wouldn't be the largest part, I mean it'd take a little time to set up, but not a ridiculous amount. The problem is that the color of zero's skin plays a role in three different layers of this scene (as well as in other scenes), and needs to be checked constantly as the sprite renders. Each additional skin color would involve doubling the amount of conditional checks it would need to make at each phase. On my end, that's as simple as copying and pasting a bunch of stuff and tweaking a couple of numbers, but I'm concerned that it would make the game work harder each time. I'm really not sure how efficient the compositing process is, but I'd rather not push it if it can be helped. Now you will be able to rename the character. I call him Zero because that's the default, like Commander Shepard, but you'll have the opportunity to enter whatever name you like at the start, and you can have Rogue either call you by name or by a pet name. As for appearance, remember that in this world, you are a mutant. Just assume that you were born with whatever skin color you have now, but when your mutation appeared, your skin went green. The character is you, just a green you. ;) As for other colors, I considered blue, but we do already have Nightcrawler, Beast, and Mystique in that world, that's a lot of blue going around, and more blue might lead to confusion, you know? And white just doesn't contrast well with certain "fluids." I am more flexible on choosing one color that isn't green, and I'll try and figure out a way to more efficiently add in multiple color options though.

It would be extra work i know. But for me, i like to pretend the guy is me, and that's hard to do if i can't use my name (Though Zero is a cool X-men name so that's fine for me) or if he doesn't have my skin tone. But maybe this matters less for most of the patrons, and certainly i could accept a strange skin tone as a compromise. I think blue would be better (if a bit similar to nightcrawler) or even pure snowy white, which has a 'zero' feel to it. No colour.
Oni
Well, even having two different tones would require a whole bunch of additional condition checks in the sprite, a bunch of new sprite elements, artistically it wouldn't be that hard, but it would really bloat things up.

I agree with this

I am not sure about the green. Would it be too difficult to give us a colour palette for the player character to choose from? Just three or four separate skin tones?
