Developer Diary 7 (Patreon)

After last week, I picked myself up and figured out a temporary solution for my problem relating to clothing layers. I thought some more things through and currently I cannot offer you 2 layers of clothing on top of the bra, so for now it will be Bra + Top. This should still give you plenty of options though :)

On to what I managed to get done this week:

I continued working on clothing and she is finally fully dressed (if she wants to be, lol).

That means I implemented pants, but also one extra piece of clothing I suddenly wanted in the game: Dresses!

If you wear a dress, the bra, top and pants will disappear. I gave some thought to allowing bras under dresses, but for now they are simple hidden. In the future this will more than likely change to give you full options.

Beyond that I added more options for things that were already implemented: eyebrows, lashes, eye shadow, etc..

I redid the art for earrings to allow for finer artwork (the lineart made earrings look a lot chunkier than I wanted) and I also took the time to update them to work with my coloring technique.

I also added a few more locations, like a home (bedroom) and a store for selecting clothes.

Finally today I implemented face makeup (think blush and highlight) and also reworked lips so she could have different colors lips (lipstick). I also reworked how her arms are positioned so her posture is more elegant (this is especially obvious when she wears dresses).

I also did a bunch of code reworking and optimizing, but this is less obvious to talk about :p

Next week I am looking into printing dialogue in a simple text box as well as adding a day and night cycle. While those features will more than likely have either little or no function in the demo, I still feel like I want to have them in there. Unless it ends up taking too much work. I’m coming close to being in the position where I just need to add more options of everything I’ve implemented so far, so you get more options.

Probably I will also try to get 2 more hairstyles in as well as a few more hair colors which should mix things up quite a bit :)

Thank you for reading and for the support and I will see you next week!
