Up Next For Whitemane
🕑 Added 2020-10-17 00:00:17 +0000 UTCIn my first update post, I stated that my plans for game releases after Whitemane's Inquisition would be to make Whitemane's Inquisition Part II and Part III. I've had some time to consider how I'm going to make those and decided to do things a little bit differently than as originally planned. Instead of releasing the new Whitemane scenes as separate games, I'll instead incorporate them into the first game as major updates. I have a couple of reasons for wanting to do it this way, but mainly it allows me to easily provide updates for the original two scenes while also making new ones. My main goals for the first big update to Whitemane's Inquisition are as follows:
1. Convert the game to HTML5
2. Add a paizuri scene
3. Incorporate Patreon rewards
The first part, converting the game to HTML5, is particularly important to me. I built the original game in Flash because it was easy to learn and animator-friendly, but as you may know Flash is going to be unsupported by most browsers at the end of the year. This doesn't mean that Flash content will go away, but it does mean it will be harder to share it online, so I'd rather move my game to a format that is not treated as obsolete, with the added benefit of allowing the game to be compatible with mobile browsers. I've only so far dipped my toes into HTML5, converting snippets of the Flash game into the new format to see how it'll work. I can at least feel confident that I can get it to look and perform largely the same as the original, but I won't know about all of the limitations of HTML5 until I actually convert the whole game over.
The conversion process will be a bit of a wild card in terms of how long it will take to finish since I've never done it before. Obviously all of the assets and animations are still there but I'll need to re-build the game with new code and ensure that it functions the same as the Flash version, but once that's done I can focus on the new content.
As previously stated, I intend to make a paizuri scene next, but I'm also going to add $10+ rewards (in-game acknowledgements) and $30 rewards where applicable. If you're set to receive in-game acknowledgements and want to use a name other than your Patreon name, feel free to message me and let me know. Similarly, if you're part of the Solar Storm tier and want to request a customization option, try to send me your request as soon as you can so I can have it in mind before I start making the new content.
Once I launch this update, I still plan on doing at least one more update with a new scene and probably some new features, but I'll figure out the details when I get to it. Also, after I release the second update is when I'll consider opening up commissions of some sort, either for unique animations or YCH scenes or both.
As always, I'll do my best to keep everyone updated on my progress. I really appreciate the early support you've given me, so I'm hoping I can live up to your expectations.
