Hello friends,
I hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. I've been busy cooking up Build 6 (version 0.6.0). in studio. Here is what I am developing for Build 6.
Vehicles Are Drivable
One of the main features I am implementing in Build 6 is drivable vehicles. I've been working on this for a couple of weeks. I got the mechanic to work now I just need to flush it out. There a few things that needs to be fixed. When Build 6 releases, I might have a few vehicles drivable or maybe just one. This is just the early stage of this and will be improved as I push updates.
Improved Animations
One of the main issues I am tackling right now is better animations and models. I am working my way towards the quality of models I would like for this game. Animations are not quite there yet. I was using my game editor to create animations but I am not satisfied with the results, so I switching to a different process. Once I get this down, I should be able to create high quality animations.
Introducing Fluids
Fluids is something I have been trying to implement, but I haven't discovered a good way to do this until now. Earlier versions I had a little bit but it was barely visible. I discover a way I can implement this now and I can't wait to see the results of these when I implement them.
New Art
I have a new way I'm doing art now as well. The old way of create even concept art was long and took a lot of time. I found a faster process and it will allow me to create art while focus more on development of the game.
With the new method of doing art, I can create the mood and the environment I would like for Love X Lust with more accuracy. You will notice the benefits of these as I continue with updates.
New Music
I have new music as well and this is much better than the ones I had before. I felt I wasn't getting the vibe or mood that I wanted with the older music. The music I've implemented is retro wave and it will fit with the theme of the game.
When Can We Expect Build 6
I shooting to release Build 6 at the end of the month, but the new features I am adding might take longer to implement. I felt my recent release had a lot of issues and I'm trying to avoid putting out a lackluster build. I want to thank those who have been patient.
Patreon Page and Membership Benefits.
I will be making some changes to the Patreon page, improving some of the graphics and the about me section along with some goals I have in mind. Also, I would like to start posting polls and get better feedback from patrons. Expect some changes to the page in the coming weeks.
I am planning to create exclusive development videos for Tier 2 and Tier 3 members. This will be coming maybe once every two weeks. Only members Tier 2 and Tier 3 will be able to view them. Higher Tier members will get an in-depth view of the development of the game. My first couple of videos probably won't be that exciting to watch at first, but I will improve as I get adjusted to putting these videos out.
Thanks for your support!
I would like to take the chance to thank everyone for supporting this game, this community is growing and I want to show my thanks to you guys by giving you all a great game. This is a very ambitious project and I really enjoy making it. I hope it becomes enjoyable to play. I will be created polls and ways for you all to have an impact on the development of the game. I have a discord, if you have any recommendations on what you would like to see in the coming updates please feel free to share them. I would like to hear more reviews and suggestions.
