Hello! 👋
We're coming up on the end of the Pokégirls pack now. Flannery should be finished sometime in the next day or so, making a total of ten characters altogether. $10+ members can see those here.
I could keep drawing Pokémon ladies forever, and I'm sure there will be more eventually, but... gotta move on!
So what comes after this? Well, I've got something new I've been wanting to try.
Interactives!
These would be "playable" versions of my drawings, with items to click and drag, extra gag options and such, sound effects, maybe a little light animation, etc. Basically "mini-BL3s" that I can put together much more quickly than a full game.
I whipped up a quick proof-of-concept using the Alex pic from April. If you're curious, $10+ patrons can play around with it here. It should work entirely in-browser, no download necessary. (Desktop only for now though.) Click and drag to use items, right-click to remove them. Bear in mind there's really not much to do yet - it's just a quick little prototype right now!
I'll be fleshing it out some more in July. Members in the VIP tier will get another little pre-release build or two, after which the finished work will get published to everyone at the $10 tier and higher. There will also be a downloadable exe version. Altogether I don't expect it to take more than about a month.
After that, I'd love to keep making more of these. I think they seem really fun, and having an existing foundation to work with makes things move a lot quicker. What do you think though? Is this something you'd like?
Otherwise, I was also considering the possibility of finally getting down to work on another full project like BL3. I'm not sure what that would be yet. Probably not BL4 - I'd want to do something new. Maybe it'd be fun to bring back Dolly and Luna?
I'm still in the stage where I'm just coming up with ideas for stuff, so any suggestions would be more than welcome. Let me know what you're thinking.
Like with BL3, VIPs will get access to early test builds and provide suggestions for features. This goes for whichever route we end up taking, whether it's a full game or more mini-interactives. Slots are limited and they filled up very fast last time, so if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, don't wait!
Thanks everyone! ✌️
