 PROGRESS REPORT

FrougeDev has been just adding various bits and pieces to the build; come Jan 1st though, he's going to concentrate solely on the Ice Boss before going back to work on more features for the game.

Triangulate has been working on the effects for the powerups and visual polish in general; you can see one of the new animations above, but he's also gotten another 10+ animations done for other effects that powerups grant. He's also been working with me with the Ice Boss game over animation to match it up with dialogue and the like.

I've been trying to find a SFX person as well as writing up the dialogue for the Ice Boss game over sequence, fleshing out cutscenes more, refining the storyline, and re-balancing powerups, as well as various odds and ends.

Rtil has finished the first CG image, and is almost done with the variations of it; they'll be starting on a new CG image soon, and once the holidays are over, they should be knocking out a new CG every 1-2 weeks.

====================

INSTANT CHARGE REMINDER

Starting in January we're going to have Instant Charge enabled, which means that there'll be no more waiting until the end of the month to get new demos once they're out!

====================

NEW POWERUPS

As you can see in the GIF above, Talia is doing a new move! Specifically, she's shooting downwards while in mid air, but that's not all; as she shoots downwards, she's slowing her descent while keeping her horizontal momentum.

You can see a similar move (and where this ability was inspired from) on this video; https://youtu.be/U2CuvNuPGJE?t=6m20s 

This is one of quite a few Utility powerups we have coming in the next/later builds that will allow you to actually change, even if only a little bit, how you can navigate around the maps/interact with enemies.

====================

NEED A SOUND EFFECTS ARTIST

We're currently looking for a Sound Effects artist not only for Future Fragments, but for the other two games I'm working on too; a lot more info can be found in the post below. (I'm also seeking a GUI artist for Reclaim Reality , too!)

Note that new sound effects for the next demo might not be in, depending on whether or not we can find someone for this position or not, but we will eventually find someone. (All current SFX in the game are either freeware sound effects, which we want to eventually phase out, or were made by Cheshire, which we also want to phase out.)

 ====================  

And as usual, thanks so much for your support; we're aiming to give you nothing less than the best game we can do!

The new demo, v016, will be out January 30th, and will have the Ice Boss in it, along with a number of improvements :)

(As an extra note too, if you wanted to check out the other two games of mine (especially if you're a yuri or a futa fan, respectively, since we're not doing either of those in this game), they're at http://www.patreon.com/reclaimreality and http://www.patreon.com/hentaiwriter.)

You guys are working so hard! I'm really interested in the downward shot; it reminds me a little of the machine gun from Cave Story. I ah... hope the Ice Boss puts the Celodst's "cold skin/hot 'innards'" bit into play ;)

Jason Bill

Can you clarify? The powerup allows you to shoot down? Or is that something you're adding anyway, with the powerup slowing her descent when you do?

SirRetinee

Geez, I remember seeing this on ULMF forever ago, only recently found the Patreon. Good to see it still going. I've read a few comments so I know I won't get the .15 demo until Jan, but could I bother you for the .14 demo until then?

Joegamer1

So will the boss battle make it into the next demo, or should we expect it in the demo after? I believe I asked this before cuz the boss looks quite interesting to me :)

AustynG123

So where can I get my demo

The Dayum Machine

So about the SFX, is it all sound effects, or specific ones you need? I know this obviously doesn't include Talia's voice (duh), but I could ask a few people if they could make some. I did a year in music production but I'm a metal fan, as SFX design is more a dubstep and DnB based area, so I could ask a few of my friends if they could come up with a few. Though, none of them know I like hentai. That... could be an awkward situation. That being said I could give it a try myself, but I'd probably not come up with anything, or anything I would come up with would be trash. Unless of course you want to have a rock-based boss theme, that I can do, but I figure you probably already have someone on that sort of thing, and with the feel of the game it feels more like it'd be better fit with what's already there :P Either way, if I had an idea of what to look for I might be able to help with the SFX artist. No promises though. :/

Hey HW, I've been following your progress since I caught the game on Kimochi. Amazing work and the test demo for the ice stage is stunning. I think it's been long enough since I started pledging to receive the v015 demo, is that possible?

RAID!

Good to see you found an SFX artist! If you ever find yourself with too much work on your hands just message me I may be able to help with something.

Ryan Smith

Bronyel

I had change my pledge at 5$ last month so i've paid 5$ today. Can I have the newest Demo please ?

Vent

Not sure where else to say this: I've noticed an odd graphical glitch with the Ice Grunt. During their idle animation, the ice symbol on their armor flickers and turns back into the circle from the Fire Grunts.

Syntherios

I'll take one of those Ice Demos too. TIME TO GET MY FAP ON

Oscar Isaacs

Excited to get my hands on that new Ice demo.

Windbolt
