This Week in the Forest! #219 (Patreon)

YO FOLKS! Sorry for the silence! Been juggling a lot! Not a good excuse, but yeah.

COUPLE BIG THINGS.

BLFC BABY!

I'm going and I'm bringing a Mabel and a Scarlett to show off! AND maybe a little dev version of our newest Horsing Around stuff. So if you're going and wanna meet, hmu! OH YEAH PLUS MY COOL NEW BUSINESS CARRRDS!

The Forest of Love

We're about to drop a the first part of Act 4! There's no smut, all story. It's all the build up to what's going down and what we got planned for the "end" of the game :>! I'm gonna post it probably today. Obviously spoilers, but nothing too crazy.

Horsing Around

I'm gonna do some restructuring with our plans for this game. I originally wanted this to be a glorified 3D gallery, but then feature creeped it to being kinda ran like a small TV Show. In theory, this would've been really cool, but as y'all saw in my previous post and the "Game Dev Bitchy" - this ended up balooning out the work load EXPONENTIALLY. And it's something barely a two person team could do, but DEFINITELY NOT as a side game.

Instead we're going a lot simpler and kinda returning back to the glorified 3D porn gallery. I'll be focusing on animations and content, and Sprout will be focusing on level design and platforming shenanigans! The idea/loop is you go platform/collect stuff, come back and redeem your pick-ups for sex scenes! Easy!

This'll also let me focus more on animation, and actually getting some fun stuff for y'all to see, and even vote on. Trust me, I miss the interactivity potential with these games, and tbh, the lack of it is reflecting on our patreon support xD. But I can't blame anyone. (Btw, y'all sticking around are absolute heroes! It's been a tricky path navigating this stuff, and online presence has been falling through the cracks. It has been for years, but now it's starting to bite us.)

Anywho, this "returning to the roots" for Horsing Around should be a good way to kill a few birds with one stone. The above scene is from a minute and a half full animation I just finished up.

We plan on getting a build out to y'all very soon, and it'll have 2 fully fledged sex scenes so y'all can see what we've been wanting y'all to experience! That and, all the other platforming shenanigans, a bit of fun writing and some mini cutscenes.

TOYS!

The toys deliver just after BLFC!! So i'll be shipping at the end of THIS MONTH! Big W!

MY HANDS!

Y'all. I've been struggling with this wrist pain for a LONG fucking time now. It's killed my WASD Gaming days, and it's been making animating in 3D a huge pain, computer work in general. Even typing.

BUT WE FUCKIN FIGURED IT OUT. Bro. It's the "finger spreading" that I needed to work on. Like those weird rubber bands for your fingers that you just open your hand? That's been a fuckin GAME CHANGER.

I still got some work to do for them, but I've been actually able to clock decently long days of pure 3D work again. It's been SO NICEEE!

It's been about two weeks since I started working on that, and literally like, day 1 things were noticeably different. I kept my hopes in check as time went on, but I think at this point I can celebrate xD.

All in all, a lot of Ws! So I'm thankful for that!

OK! I fly out tomorrow, so I'll see ya guys later!
