Weekly Wednesdays #3/19

So here we are, three weeks into 2019 and I'm already behind with my plans of more frequent updates to Patreon (pesky new years resolutions, right?).
In this new blog style post I will share game development progress on a weekly base to get back into a more steady cycle and more regular news updates.

Now you might ask ...

Welcome to 2019!

Happy New Year to all of you

and thank you for the amazing support in 2018!

Special thanks to the long time Patrons who stayed over the past months of silence, your contribution is greatly appreciated!

Moving into 2019 there is some exciting news to share regarding the state of my game projects.
Some mig...

I started rendering the new locations and scenes and this is a first sneak peek of the quarters at the asteroid mining outpost.

Reinhard the Mechanic

say hello to Reinhard!

He is the Mining Outpost's mechanic and might help you out with certain tasks... if you do him some favors first!

And speaking of the Outpost:

this will be the main navigation screen for the Outpost coming with the ne...

This is Aurora

say hi to Aurora!
She is part of the human crew at the mining outpost and operates one of the drill rigs.

She needs to be trained in order to help you out with the essentials there and to make sure that the outpost reaches its mining quota.

Patrons [Tier 2+] have seen her in a sho...

Space Bugs!

looks like I screwed up one of the "last minute" additions I made shortly before releasing 0.0.5

If you have already downloaded 0.0.5 I'm sorry to say that you will need to remove it and download the 0.0.5a update instead

I will put in a better file handling system for the next release so "updating" on...

version 0.0.5 is live!

this update features the missing parts of the interrogation story line. It also adds two pastime activities that can be performed at the quarters featuring a solo yoga session and a duo yoga session with the new NPC Kira.  

All existing renders have been remade to fit the new MC outfit and the new female pirate outfit that were added to rese...

release 0.0.5 almost done

the last remaining renders are prepared and queued to be rendered!

this will take another couple of hours but after they are done the new version 0.0.5 is good to go live!

it took a little longer but stay tuned it's almost ready

Yoga with Kira

check out the upcoming pastime activity you can do once you encountered Kira

this is a repeatable activity and each time you get a random 5 poses (out of 10)

I'm half way done with the missing renders for 0.0.5 so the planned release window for the new version is still the end of this week!

new release incoming

later today I will post a preview version of the next release for all Dedicated Patrons [Tier 3] and higher

this preview version is mostly complete with content scheduled for this release (0.0.5) but will be missing some of the new renders since they are still in the queue to be rendered.

I'm busy working to finish th...

new UI

I'm busy finalizing the new UI and other background game mechanics for the next release.

The Missions system got an upgrade to a more modular and expandable system and the Action Points system is also ready to go including the new "Yoga Session" pastime activity (which you can totally do fu...

Space Junk will have a combat element and she will be an enemy to fight

and what you do with her is totally up to you then

Kira is waiting

the new NPC Kira is waiting for the player at the shuttle bay

new suit

the main character will get a new standard outfit with the next update.
the old one was not up to par with the increased render quality settings so I swapped it out with a better looking and more detailed suit

secBot high quality upgrade

alongside the human characters the various Bots also get a new high quality upgrade.

the secBots don't show the "POLICE" tag anymore and got more details to their framework.
the other Bots will get similar changes too.

Yoga in Space

does Yoga in artificial gravity even count as exercise?

you will find out with the next update of Space Junk

4k high quality upgrade

check out this high quality re-render of the first scene with the new outfit

new Outfit

the female space pirate got a new outfit!

the previous one was hogging too much render power while not looking that particularly good...

so: this new outfit is not only looking way better but it is also easier to work with

Kira the cargo shuttle pilot

this is Kira
she is a cargo shuttle pilot and will be available for different tasks if the cargo shuttle is docked

reboot

as you might have noticed by now, Patreon suspended my creators page.
this was already expected to happen sooner or later due to the incest content in Twin Star.

What I didn't expect was the other changes they wanted me to do to the game in order to allow it on Patreon.

But since the support team apparently can't be assed to give a...
