Just a little talk (in fact a ton of talk)
🕑 Added 2023-07-26 22:30:22 +0000 UTCWhenever I don't post stuff I start to feel a little restless. --- a shitload of text, just wanted to share some stuff. I dislike keeping you all in the dark.
Despite not having much to show anymore, take a look at some cgs that I think I didn't share. As you know the game has almost 2000 CG and more than 100 animations and I'm kinda lost in what I've shared.
As I keep working very hard on this update, I start to wonder when I'll really finish this. Now almost all scenes are on the gallery and working, it's missing some stuff, mainly test if the big events are starting properly, I have to play the game from the start many times to see if stuff are working as it should, as I've added sound effects and polished some stuff related to 0.1.
I've been cleaning the version from bugs and testing it out a lot, but the game is so damn big that testing it takes hours lol
I've made a code where you can tell for your doll to change bodies faster. Instead of sending it to the lab every time, you'll need to send them just once, after that you can tell them to be strong, dominatrixes and all... By choosing a simple menu you'll be able to change her body and mind status. This will make the game less grindy. I had also to realign the whole game, since I changed almost all screens.
However for this version I'll have to cancel some stuff. I've added a third time to the game, it was midday, but as I play I notice that Midday is empty. So I'll hold back new day time for 0.3 I need to produce several scenes for it, doing simple math it would need like, 500 CG more, so no way I'll do that now.
Some other game aspects I'll have to postpone for 0.3, mainly clothing for Judy and Misty, Judy has now 2 options with 4 scenes I guess, and Misty only 1 with two scenes.
I had to hold back a little Because I planned a quest line for each clothing, for each character, and this will take a while to produce. Many items will have usage only in events for 0.2, but for 0.3 they will be used daily.
I've add a new gig for Mimi and advanced the story in Ava's gig. There are scenes specifically for MC when he is working on his reports. The game is absurdly big so it is taking far longer than I thought.
I've also added some blockers for people who doesn't like lesbian stuff or anything else, really, there is now an option called "super vanilla" where you can send your dolls to gigs that have story and they will not be harassed at all. It's like people will avoid lusting after them, but the story will go forward, you'll just not see sexual things going on.
As I finish the scenes and all I also notice that I've been missing 1 cg here, other cg there so I'm working on the quality of everything, filling all the holes I left behind... As I changed the way animations are shown, I had to redo all animations from 0.1- the lines they say when fucking I mean - and I'm currently finishing the lines from all animations for 0.2. Adding sound effects to all of them will be impossible for 0.2, but this will be solved on 0.3. As sound effects don't sync perfectly with the animations I've been editing the sound effects on After Effects, but this takes soooo long. So I'll save many of this for 0.3
I hope that next time I write stuff like this is to announce the game release!
Tks for being patient with this project and with me! For me personally is really bad that I can't say a precise deadline! Something I'm definitely change for 0.3

tks man! you guys are awesome really! As I'm getting proper rest at night, the day seems short! I've been doing so much in this project but in the final part of it, feels like I'll never conclude it! But each hour I work on this, is a hour closer to release, so we're getting there!

Oh yeah, I do have tons of fun even though it's a crazy amount of things to do. Editing sound effects it's been frustrating but I'm learning now how to do it properly, so we are walking forward very fast - In fact the only one to blame is myself, as wanting to provide a very good version, I go overboard lol but tks for the kindness honestly, I start to fret a little but everyone is really supportive.

Everything seem really promising. Don't hesitate to take a few days for you. Thank you for keeping us in touch.

Kind of relatable in a sense. During my day job I get restless about wanting to finish some role-playing stories, and what not. And some cases I wonder what I gotten myself into. Don't feel too obligated, and take a break if it starts feeling like work rather than fun. Like I said, no rush.
