Fortnightly Progress - 18th October

All the releases for Tw0.3 have now been done, and it's now onto Tw0.4

Direction Polling for that has a week left to run, and this is how that's currently looking.

Just one vote in it currently. I did mess up with setting up the poll for t...

The 127th No Haven Commission - Iron-Clad Maidens

Murr returns and with a seriously gorgeous gobbo gal.

I asked them to go for opulence to really sell that this is one wealthy goblin and they sold the hell out of it. So many nice delicate details. Also yes she's from a rich enough family to afford a goblin sized dressing screen rather than one of those oversized human ones.

You ca...

No Haven Tw0.3 TF Edition

This is the same version that I posted two weeks ago today for the Discord tier and above.

Wow, that was a ride and a half. I'll talk about it more in a day or so in a Fortnightly. (Which I did not last Thursday but the one before)

Discovered a massive amount of variable issues from the first import when I was working on thi...

No Haven Tw0.3 N

This is the regular reiease edition of the version that I posted two weeks ago today for the Discord tier and above

Wow, that was a ride and a half. I'll talk about it more in a day or so in a Fortnightly. (Which I did not last Thursday but the one before)

The 126th No Haven Commission - Master and Cum-Catcher

I'm probably going to change the title yet again when I do get around to doing this assignment the way I keep flip-flopping on this one.

Xoicom returns with a wonderful depiction of why wearing random stuff found in the Deep Mountains is a terrible/amazing idea depending on your point of view. Still at least this valk is still getting a d...

Alternative September Commission Poll

Yes, it's totally still September. Do not look at the calendar, it's really not that interesting, it's just a bunch of numbers that only have what meaning we assign to them. Also see the most recent Fortnightly. That has the all important actually meaningful context.

To do a catch up on where we are as I left that out of the Fortnightly a...

Fortnightly Progress - 3rd October

So that was not the amazing start to the whole new post RAGS era I hoped it would be.

Basically I discovered a massive amount of variable issues from the first conversion from the earlier RAGS version when I was working on Tw0.3. So much of it was inconsistent or just plain broken. Had a bit of a freak out as you do, not helped by some o...

No Haven Tw0.3

Wow, that was a ride and a half. I'll talk about it more in a day or so in a Fortnightly.

Discovered a massive amount of variable issues from the first import when I was working on this . Had a bit of a freak out as you do, not helped by some other contributing factors, went mostly radio silent, and then after about a month of pretty much...

The 125th No Haven Commission - Completing the Collection

Yes, this will make a fine addition, etc, etc.

Croc returns with a lovely drow very much on display. They're such a pleasure to work with as this needed a fair number of adjustments over the course of the commission to get it right along with making some improvements to the initial pitch, and they were great about making all the changes as...

The 124th No Haven Commission - Callous Doctrine

Yes, I know the title really doesn't at all fit with the amusing non-cannonical dialogue that Rammionn came up with for this one :D

And what wonderful art they came up with too. Absolutely nailed the pose, and I also really like how the background came out which takes elements from several different Dreadsea Coast based commissions.

Fortnightly Progress - 15th August

All the public releases of the last RAGS update are now done so we're officially now in a whole new era.

Thanks to that I've started up the Picarto streams again. Currently I'm working on converting the 0.991 RAGS export into Twine code as I have in mind a new mechanic that I'd really like to include in the next update, and I know I've cha...

July + Aug Commission Poll

The full list of previous and outstanding commmissions can now be found here.

To save you a click the winner of July's was Demi-Angel - Forage for Supplies so yes my stacking of the poll did work to finally knock out any kind of Foraging, but it was a dang close...

Alternative July Commission Poll

Please check out the Fortnightly I posted yesterday if you haven't done so already. That's going to save me repeating myself here for why the July commission poll is going up on the last day of July.

First three are from the Alternative May Poll, next three are me trying something new in trying to come up with a decent pitch for Forage fo...

Fortnightly Progress - 30th July

Sorry about going radio silent there. Combo of a surprisingly stressy time away from home, discovering after getting back my mum needed to go in for major surgery (she's on the road to recovery now thankfully), and a certain amount of just general brain frazzle to do with this being the last ever RAGS thing I'm hopefully ever going to do after b...

No Haven 0.991 - TF Edition

Now this, all being good, is really the last RAGS thing ever. No plans for anything that's not in Twine from now on unless something majorly wrong in here forces my hand.

Sorry it took a bit. Will talk more about that in the Fortnightly.. That'll be Tuesday with the Commission Poll Wednesday, as tomorrow is going to be breathing the big...

The 123rd No Haven Commission - Basic Sissy Training

Starli continues to be such a star with the first NH Fae done that wasn't either contributed by a patron or was funded by one as a bonus.

As a bonus they sent over a version without wings, and I asked if they were changing their eyes. So now they match the city elf cheerleader Murr did, and while city elves have incredibly diverse eye colo...

The 122nd No Haven Commission - Green Daze

I'm still away but if I get art that's finished then I can certainly post that.

And what lovely art it is too!

This was such a wonderful process as for once I didn't need to provide a full document and all the refferences which can take several hours or even more to put together. Instead I just gave Rammionn the gist of what I wante...

Fortnightly Progress - 14th June

Currently sitting at an airport gate so will make this short and sweet.

Got the last (not counting hotfix) update for RAGS in No Haven 0.99 out yesterday. You can find the full text of the post including the changelog on both Twitter and Bluesky.

My plan now is the commission poll will go up in the next couple of days presuming I su...

No Haven 0.99 - TF Edition

This is it. RAGS updates after this are officially over, and it's going to be all Twine, all the time.

Well, not counting the final hotfix which I'm aiming to be out in about two weeks, and definitely before the end of the month.

But still yay! Ding, dong the RAGS is dead!

Due to that I didn't look into how to solve the follow...

Fortnightly Progress - 26th May

To get the main thing out the way before I talk about my feelings and work process. The final Rags update will be out second week of June, next Twine update will be out before the end of July.

Reason I'm so actually confident for once in that is the writing for one of the hardest writing task I ever had to do is finally entirely done. Thi...

Alternative May Commission Poll

Password is 'NoHaven' if you happen to be on my Picarto tonight at 8pm UK time, or in just under 4 hours from when this post goes up. Should be a fun time, and at the very least you can enjoy being there with me consuming the usual provisions needed to cope with yet another forgettable ballad.

First three are from the Alternative March Pol...

Fortnightly Progress - 26th Apr

Slightly stretching the definition of the word 'fortnightly'. Not quite more than three weeks though so a very mitigated yay?

Did have some trials and tribulations with the work on the RAGS update, not helped by some unfortunately timed living condition stuff.

Don't particularly want to dwell on that though as that's not fun for you...

Mar + Apr Commission Poll

Sorry this one was a bit late. Will run it for a bit longer than usual because of that.

Glad it was though as it inadvertently led to some really good ideas after some brainstorming from the discord for some new Assignment names and concepts. Thank you to everyone who contributed as that was some lovely inspiration.

Also this is the ...

The 121st No Haven Commission - Spite Fire

And we are entirely caught up with all the outstanding commissions, woo and indeed hoo!

Also what a one for which do it as Starli shows they can do fierce as well as they can do cute.

Helmet design is the definitely highlight for me here. That took some iterating on until ending up with this.

Fortnightly Progress - 4th Apr

Man this has been going so much better.

Glad I held this back a week, as then the constant hitting of my head against the wall that is the final RAGS update, well, the wall was basically winning.

Now though things have been going much more swimmingly to the point I'm seeing some more cracks that aren't in my own personal sense of w...

The 120th No Haven Commission - Strictly Confidential

Rammionn provides, and oh man does he provide, as I easily think this is the best one from them so far for the game.

Very occasionally I get some art, and think this is it, this is not just what I imagined, but this is actually better. This is the best possible realization, and when that special pieces of art happen, the ones that really ...
