Introducing: SprinkleQuest!
🕑 Added 2019-05-01 06:33:23 +0000 UTC:D Alright guys, this is the big enchilada. Not the giant enchilada, but it's still a pretty big one. I'm incredibly nervous about posting it, not really sure wether you'll find it as fun as I hope you do. Basically while obsessing over game development and working on Legend of Danica (more on that in the next post!) I started a side-project just to mess around and experiment with mechanics and features before porting them over (else there's always a bit of a risk of things breaking or interacting poorly and ironing that out can be quite the struggle) and as I was importing sprites and trying things out, it took on a bit of a life of its own. And thus was born, SprinkleQuest(tm)! A fully immersive 3d exploration game. There isn't any fancy combat, action or complex character management. Instead it's like a comfy adventure game where you get to explore a world inhabited by futas (and who knows what else) in their natural habitat. You will learn about their stories and maybe help them solving quests or puzzles to unlock new areas, dialogues, scenes, and art. The game will be an endless work in progress, but I think it could be pretty cool and allows me to tell more of a story around all of the characters. At some point it could also be fun to hide secret commission codes in the world and whoever is the first to find it gets a free commission or something like that :D
Every scene will be a chapter in itself, with all of the storylines and dialogues contained within it. Eventually I'll add save progress and an indicator to show how many quests you've discovered and finished, and how much art and secret animations you've found. The first scene brings you to Futaville, a tiny gated futa farming community, where the girls are having a party just that very night. And apparently there's quite a bit of rivalry and jealousy going on. Next scene (in the works now) will take you to a superrich elite futa breeding mansion on an island, where different kinds of futas are bred and trained. The kicker here will be that you're on a mission to buy some of the best endowed futas the facility has on offer, and you have a secret X-Ray device to help you on the quest.
Now the build you can download atm is still really rough around the edges and there isn't much content there yet. But all the code and systems are in place, meaning that adding content and story (the fun part!) will be pretty smooth from hereon out. This scenes goal will be to get into the barn where the party is going on.
Now there is one obvious issue with my use of sprites. And I really wanted to ask you guys how you feel about this, wether you think it's working well or not so much. Because while I can by now do basic 3d models, animating them (and in such a way that they are sexy and lifelike) is a whole other beast and would take me ages to learn). I can do sprite based animations somewhat decently, but there's always limitations and they can never be fully organic... so I will be limited to 'static' animations that breathe some life into the characters but will never have them jumping around doing acrobatics in full 3d space ._.'
Anyway, let's hear how you guys feel about this whole thing first! Hold F1 ingame to display a help screen with all the controls. Other than that there isn't much to be aware of, just hop around and check the place out! The character face sprites don't change yet during dialogue, as I add more content of course they will get a wider set of emotions!
Oh and also, what's perhaps even more exciting is the fact that we might get real mutiplayer much sooner than I thought at first. Not sure how exactly I'd fit that into a game, but either way it opens up some exciting possibilities!
Okay, clicking that post button now. Please, do give me all of your feedback (also regarding performance and wether you find any bugs or issues!)

ive tried for a while and i cant find a way into the barn am i missing something? I talked to all the people outside and the only thing i found to interact with is the gate but doing so doesn't do anything.
