But if you don't want to read, here is the short version:

- Cyberpunk Game not going to come, new artstyle with new render engine!

- Changing Tiers from 2-5-7-10-15 to 3-6-9-29-89

- Gamers now have access to the new CbDE version!

Hi,

Gamers click here, the new CbDE version is available for you now! 

I have news for you, and these news are pretty important. First of all, the giant, dystopian cyberpunk game that I teased you with (remember the trailer?) is NOT going to come. Maybe it will at some point in the future, but right now it is too big of a thing to handle. I have realized that a week ago already.

I have commited to only working on one game in the future, and I want it to be top notch in story but most of all I want it to be full of Femdom and Futanari Domination Scenes and Animations, and that is what I will focus on. I do not think you need stuff like an advanced battle system in an adult game...and let us be honest so far I haven't been able to deliver a really good battle gameplay experience.

I quickly get excited about new stuff, ideas and things to show, but we have to be realistic, I have to be realistic. In april it will be 3 years since I have started this project. It isn't wise to commit to a project that is bigger than all previous games combined, the risk of delivering an empty open world is too big, and the first steps in my new world started to feel exactly like that. Also, I have to finally accept that RPG Maker is not the right engine for such a game...and I'm one that usually hates all the RPG Maker bashing!

I will keep quiet on my new project for a while and focus on my 2 current ones.

So, what we do is taking one step back and two steps forward. I will finish Captured by Dark Elves and Femdom City MANTIS first. Femdom City MANTIS will get a pretty big update next.

And I will change my artstyle for the future game, and for my future artwork in general. In particular, I will change my render engine.

I have used Poser Pro 11 in every game so far. Every artwork that you've seen in my games is made with Poser. I have made my own figures, but I also have one of the biggest libraries of 3D assets out there. I think it might be the biggest. Seriously.

And abandoning that is very hard, and I always pushed that thought aside...but the reality is that Poser Pro 11 is dead. No one is producing content for this engine and for the old figures anymore. When you look at adult assets and props, the other engines have all the fun stuff (undressing clothes, wet bodies, genitals, fluids, overweight women that can actually wear clothes without poke throughs...the list is endless) while I have to come up with serious magic just to attach a cock to a woman in my render 3D engine (and most of the time it still looks detached). I've already started to render in the new engine, and I cannot really show you much because these are my first walking steps (and because patreon is going to ban me if I show you some nipples and cocks in a public post), so just trust me on this one...it will be worth it, especially if you want to see things like chastity devices and bdsm props, but also more variety when it comes to the models).

(sorry, currently I don't have any exciting assets to show...just have the standard characters and outfits that come with the engine and a bit more...I mean, that is why I'm making this post after all)

So, that is why I am changing the Patreon tiers. I wanted to change it for a while because the Kinkster Tier is currently getting only little value (I only very rarely do polls and when I do they're so meaningful that everyone should be able to vote), and I thought that some rich generous souls out there might feed my render addiction in the first months by selecting one of the big tiers :D.

Currently it is 2$-5$--7$-10$-15$

and it will change to 3$-6$-9$-29$-89$

so 3 instead of 2$, 6 instead of 5$ and 9 instead of 10$. The 7$ tier vanishes.

The 29$ and 89$ tier won't get you any real benefits apart from the wall of thanks and being mentioned in my games. It is just for people that say "Hey, more money for Darktoz means more unique characters that dominate me...in even more ways than I can imagine!"

The change for the lower tiers might bother some of you because it is one dollar more now, and I can understand that. Money sits tight these days.

But I am putting a lot of time and effort into this project, I post updates every single week and I answer to every question, whether it is on here, on discord or on itch. I am asking for this because I think I can deliver a much better final product when I will use another engine in the future. It is up to you if you trust me on this or if you say that I'm now asking for too much. Changes take place in the upcoming month (march).

If you say it's too much, just wait until the end of march, when Captured by Dark Elves will be released free for everyone on itch.io again.

That's all! Thanks for your support, guys!Stay kinky!

For those of us currently on Kinkster tier, will we automatically end up in another tier or do we need to manually pick a new one?

Darktoz

Good question. The answer is: I don't know. Sorry. I have actually never changed the tiers before in these 3 years, I will make the changes on the 29th.

Darktoz

But I think you will have manually pick a new one, because the prices are going to change. Otherwise I would be able to just put all Kinksters in the new 89$ tier :D :D

Vilian0Vic

A shame about Dark Fetish World. Sure it was just a distant blip on the horizon, but it looked promising. Hope that we can still experience it at some point. The new render engine looks really good though. Can't wait for some shiny latex. :D

Darktoz

Yes, can't wait to get my hands on some latex suits :)!

Patreon_of_the_Arts

I appreciate your honestly dude, also the new render engine looks great, better looking futanari chicks for the win! ;)

markymike

for we are Humans, the new is always kind of scary for us. But I think most likely we will like it althrough non the less.😁💪 And of course it is always nice to actually finish a project. BTW, I have found a (old?) picture of (female?) centaur with curled horns drawn by you. It realy looks intresting for me, triggered my imagination. Is it a thing for later, or is it a dead end idea for you?

Darktoz

the woman in the 2nd picture actually is a futanari...had to cut the interesting parts off because of the patreon policy for public posts but will show you guys in the next one ;)

Darktoz

It was dead in the old render engine. Because the centaur couldn't move or even take a good pose...but in the new engine, centaurs are totally possible again...in the highest detail. in fact, almost anything is possible in that engine. I will be finally able to satisfy my mermaid fetish for example :D

Angelos Keramidas

Too bad. The new project was the only to offer some "gay" scenes (even optional). I hoped so many times so far the protagonist to be caged with another male hostage and do something to offer pleasure to the kidnapper. Gj for upgrading your engines though

Darktoz

I still plan to do that for the next project, optional gay and forced bi scenes. and thanks :)

A

Speaking of which, what is your next project going to be? Could it be a Visual Novel-type game set in the Cyberpunk world? I hope you still plan on having voice acting, that was a really exciting prospect.

Patreon_of_the_Arts

Dang Patreon, let us see the interesting parts damnit! ;)

NanasBananas

Honestly, it makes a lot of sense to me that you're abandoning the cyberpunk game. When you first teased it I was both excited and a little worried about it. Excited, because it looked awesome and I wanted to see it turn into reality. But worried because, like you said, go too big and you risk ending up with a lot of empty space, I understand that very well. So you won't hear any complaints from me. I think it's good that you seem to have a grasp on what you can do and what might be a bit too much. It's not like whatever else you decide on won't be filled to the brim with femdom anyway, so I'm just excited to see what you'll make instead! It also has to be hard changing render engines after amassing so much experience and assets in your current one, but it sounds like a change that has to be made. I'm just excited to see all the new assets and models you'll now have being put to use to deliver some femdom, hehehe... This does mean I'll have to add a dollar to the two I'm currently giving you a month, but I suppose that's okay. You're one of the devs who deserves it, I can't deny that...

Marcus Berggren

i hope much på femdomcity thats style i love and will you working whith. Thanks for all good jobbs you done

Darktoz

I cannot tell too much because right now I have literally 0 assets of the world that I want to build. But it is going to be a visual novel, yes...it will have story elements of all previous games.

Darktoz

Yes, Femdom City MANTIS will keep its artstyle. I'm not a fan of having to different artstyles in one game. Thanks :)

Bootsfetish

MMMh ok, I mis something or? Two games in progress, they keep their artstyle. An ambitious projet abandoned (I undestand, np). But new artstyle with new render engine for what? A new game in your mind? ^^

Marcus Berggren

I mean the team whith just Femdom no war or weapens ,Just real femdom .

Darktoz

Yes, but it will take a while. I have to collect assets first and really learn the new render engine

Darktoz

not sure if I understand you. Which team?

Marcus Berggren

Take the time you need !! I really just wanted to say that I like the type of game that femdomcity is. Where it is about femdom to 100%, you make absolutely other good games but it is my favorite.

Darktoz

ah, I see. Thank you :)

Darktoz

Honestly I do not know many creators who are working on more than one game. But I can say that juggling more than one game is something I do not recommend :D

astinad

Completely 100% agree with your thoughts on battle systems in adult games. I don't think - and maybe in some contexts I'd be wrong - that the purpose of adult games really is to challenge oneself like a traditional game. Maybe in some specific contexts but not in a unilateral way like traditional RPGs might require you to constantly level up.

astinad

Or maybe that's not the right way to word it, and it's just an issue of the mechanics specifically relating to enacting physical violence in a battle system when outside of that system you want to be submissive. The two seem to clash to me, so maybe it's the mechanics specifically that could be tweaked, but evem then, I'd say it's optional at best, and should maybe even be used sparingly or for specific contexts.

Nanus

I totally embrace and support your decision to refrain from the giant, dystopian cyberpunk game, as I actually share your concerns. As I was afraid that you gonna burn your talent, your motivation and your ambition on such a huge, never-ending, and extremely demanding game, I also voted against it at that time. Don't get me wrong: I am fully convinced that you have the ability and are well equipped to carry on such a game for a certain period of time, but at the end you might face a gigantic animal, that eats you off and get out of control.

Nanus

I am currently on the tester tier and used to pay usd 10,00 per month, which I think is a fair price for your services, as you create fantastic games, respond promptly to each and every comment, and keep us informed on a regular basis. If I understood it correctly, I have to pay usd 9,00, i.e. usd 1,00 less, in the future, which causes me a bad conscious. In order to compensate the cut in price, I think there should be a possibility to pay certain amounts, beside the regular payments, as appreciation for exceptional performances (e.g. successful updates, introduction of a new game, etc.).

Nanus

The pics you posted look promising, more realistic, and might put your work to a new level. I'm looking forward to see your new engine in action in one of your future projects. As always: THANKS A LOT !!!

Darktoz

you can always do that. Patreon allows you to do that. They also allow for example to pay 11$, even though you only get the same rewards that the other 9$-tier patreon supporters get.

Darktoz

thanks. I have just started with the new engine and there is a lot to learn. it will look even better over time

Darktoz

I don't know. Depends on the kind of game, of course. I do think that battle systems can serve a purpose in adult games and can even add to the erotic encounters in the game, but it is no use if they are not fun to play in the first place.

snoupy

The new prices are fair!!! I hope to see more more femdom and foot fetish scenes!!!! You are the best creator of femdom games... I wonder how far could you go

Dorian Benkoil

I can see postponing the big mega-game, especially while you're still juggling MANTIS and the additional endings for CbDE. But I'm a little confused. What will the new render engine be used for. Since it not for either of them it'll have to be for some unspecified future game? Anyway what's the plan, expanded MANTIS, do another CdDE ending, and alternate like that until CdDE is done? Then finish MANTIS (a huge task). Then do something else unspecified with the new render engine? Like that?

Darktoz

yes, like that. CbDE only needs 2 more updates...3 at max. alternating means when CbDE is finished MANTIS has 2-3 updates as well. And the we will see.

donserdal

What is the new engine?

FemDoSLand

Render look great. More realistic. Skin and hair. Good work!

BeneathUK

Personally, as long as the game is good and the artwork pleasing, which has always the case with your work so far, then I am happy. I don't mind paying an extra dollar if it means that you continue your great work.

John

I like the look! And your work is always amazing, you have my full support!

elmanin

I totally love the honesty and your work. I wonder if you name your new render engine and if you want someone else to help you? I really love to help in your projects especially those with Futa on Male contents.

Darktoz

Oh, of course, the engine is Daz3D. In regards of help, financial help is the one I need the most right now because I overcommitted a bit, bought a new pc and the assets of Daz are expensive. Other than that, I would accept contributions like drawn femdom // futadom artwork that I can display in my games.
