On The Perils of Over-Ambitious-osity... AND I'VE LEARNED NOTHING!!!
🕑 Added 2021-11-17 02:03:50 +0000 UTCSorry for the lengthy bout of radio silence.
I always kind of intended this to be something that I could work on when I wasn't crazy busy with other things... so in that sense I guess it's working as intended?
However, in this case, I actually have been working on a lot of related stuff in the meantime:
- I have finished writing a full HTML5 3D game engine that can run smoothly in-browser, and I'm planning exactly what I want to do with it first.
- I have hugely upgraded my animation systems for faces, hair, lipsync, and voices.
- I've been experimenting with a number of different animation techniques.
...But, to be honest, the major timesink - which I've unfortunately had to shelve for now - was that I became pretty much literally obsessed with trying to make a much lighter-weight version of something like "AIDungeon", but trained on all my favourite transformation-themed stories. After approximately three months and 30 failed prototypes, I've had to accept that that might be a longer-term project (though if anyone has a couple high-level supercomputers they're not using, give me a call...)
So, basically, despite the particularly chewy taste of recent failure, I have a lot of completed small things and 90% completed large things, all of which should be appearing soon.
Thank you so much for your continuing support, and please keep in mind that even when I disappear I'm still working on insane and insane-ly overambitious projects.

Wow that AIDungeon Idea sounds amazing! Take all the time you need, I am certain it will be well worth it in the end!

Take all the time you need, if six months of silence is what it takes for some good quality content, go for it.
