Weekly report 66
Added 2021-08-13 21:56:12 +0000 UTCHi everybody.
Last week we had the straightforward plan of finishing all of the sex scenes, and I'm glad to say that we have completed that objective.
The update, as promised earlier, will have six sex scenes: one with Simmone (hand-job) and five with Lana (tit-job, blow-job, and three vaginal scenes). I will have a long night tonight since I want to prepare the frames for corrections and adding bodily fluids during the weekend, but we count those as edit tasks since they are relatively simple.
Speaking of designing, we had a bit of a challenge for the last sex scene in that we saw that the characters didn't fit in the frame as we wanted to since we like to show the face of the character, when possible, and doing so in this particular scene meant that Lana and the MC had to be relatively small on the screen. It is not the first time that we have ran into this challenge. To solve it, we borrowed an element from 3D animations and first made a larger vertical image and then tilted the camera up and down (or rather moved it) to show the whole figure. This image should help demonstrate what I mean:
This is an experiment, of course, and we'll see if you will like it, but we're happy with the result so far. So much so, in fact, that we redid one more of the already finished sex scenes with Lana using this approach (and I think it improved immensely).
Next week's plan:
I'm done with the writing but have more editing and fixing of the old poses to do (I had stopped those tasks while working on the sex scenes). So, starting tomorrow, I will go back to playing and testing the game and editing every scene, making sure that all the dialogues and poses are as good as we can make them.
Chestnut plans to work exclusively on cutscenes, both some of the earlier ones that she had left for now because they were more challenging as well as the pre-post sex scene artworks.
I will, of course, stop whatever I'm doing when an artwork is ready and add it to the game.
Anyway, that's all.
Have a great weekend.
Cheers
P.S. This Sunday is our wedding anniversary! 🎉

2021-08-20 06:12:58 +0000 UTCHi there. The game is free and being a patron doesn't unlock the content automatically. We're currently working on the next release and it should be ready soon (see the progress tracker on the main page). It seems like you joined by mistake and I'll send you a direct message to refund your pledge if that's what you want.

2021-08-14 17:48:53 +0000 UTCInteresting feature. I'm not going to redo the code of the current sex scenes (plus I'm sure we'll need to edit the current artworks to enable that feature), but it's something to think about for the future. thanks!
MagicNuts
2021-08-14 17:48:38 +0000 UTCA few other games have implemented a autoscrolling camera like what I *think you're working on(gunsmoke games does it with "something unlimited", as their art is mostly the aspect ratio of a magazine pinup) and it works great to show a more close up view of a longer.. Area of interest, but it also prevents us from seeing the whole picture. While it enhances the detail we can see, it can also take away a sense of volition, which in some games feels immersion-breaking. I've played some Japanese games that have a scrolling feature that can be turned to manual, which is sort of a nice middle ground, where the player can stop the autoscrolling, and manually move the camera. I imagine that is probably too much work in renpy, for what it would accomplish. I was just suggesting a button that would switch between full frame and your scrolling view. (Pardon if that's what you were already intending) Regardless of what you end up doing, I'll have zero complaints. Your games always check every box. Keep up the good work!

2021-08-14 17:13:18 +0000 UTCSome games have basically a button to change between perspectives in a sex scene. Reading between the lines, I think your solution is already more advanced than a "press here to switch perspectives".

2021-08-13 23:50:52 +0000 UTCGlad to hear there are so many sex scenes with Lana. She's been with us from the beginning and we've only had the briefest glimpse of what she's got under that ratty old cloak, so this feels like making up for lost time. I dig it. Many happy returns to you both.
