Development Update 4.28.2024 (Patreon)
Content
Hello friends,
I know everyone is waiting for this next build to drop, but I'm working very hard on getting a test build out soon. I said in my last post I'll be dropping a test build at the end of the month for Tier 3 members. I would like to release a test build with all the features working. I don't want to release a test build with some of it not working. As for that, I will be pulling some late nights this week to get a test build for Build 7 out at the end of the week.
Conversation System Improvement
Some nice changes in the dialogue system. The camera view while in conversation mode now changes randomly to to perspective that focuses on both the player and NPC engaged in conversation. Sometimes it has a close view of just the NPC. Compared to the previous version this will make the user feel more engaged in the conversation. Also minor tweaks to the UI and more coming soon closer to the release of the official build. Also, there have been improvements to facial expressions as well so they don't look so lifeless.
Changes To the Intercourse System
Tons of focus on the new Intercourse system flushing out animations and features. I've been working night and day making the animations look clean and there is no culling of the body.
The test build is delayed due to the factor of different body sizes and animations. I have to create adjust animations to compensate for different body sizes and types.
Beautiful Sunsets
The sky has been changed to give more of an artistic synth-wave art style and looks great. I especially wanted the sunset to look amazing like a synthwave sunset. Sunsets are not the only change, throughout the day they will have that Synthwave aesthetic.
Main Menu Changes
I made changes to the Main Menu giving it a better look and reducing clutter. Upon entering the game you're greeted with a nice little dance. The developer mode will not be in the official build or the test build. Maybe a feature in the future.
Character Customization
The Character Creator is starting to look good and I'm in the process of getting this working before the test build. Also one of the reasons for the delay is that I am developing in this area. Overall it is starting to feel like a real character creator and it's only going to get better. I wish I had more time to implement a better camera system for this but I think I will hold that off for the next build. Not a priority for me right now. Also, there be more clothing options as well.
After viewing the nice screenshots I made of the game. I noticed I'm finally coming across a good synth-wave theme for the game and it looks great. The game is transforming or headed in a wonderful direction.
I'll be putting a lot of effort this week to put out a test build, hopefully, I can get it done and released at the end of the week. I feel like the core of the game is almost done and it be easier or quicker to add new features to the game.
I also need to find a new File Hosting site other than Mega, due to my game increasing size. Yes, this game will probably be a lot larger due to the new AI feature in the game.
Thank you for reading, I will be up night and day working on getting the test built out for Tier 3. If you have any questions feel free to ask or ask me on the Discord server.
Thank You,
Blast
