hey all, as promised, I have big news re: the future of Chonky Mod I've become 1) increasingly tired of being limited by Oni's art, animations, and ideas and 2) more and more eager to accelerate progress towards making this a playable game/mod that meets my lofty expectations. so, I've decided to bite the bullet and a) hire some people to help me out and b) fully break free from Oni's shadow in favor of a new vision for what the game should look like this means a couple things. first, instead of a mod for Rogue-Like, I will be shifting the systems and mechanics I've developed towards the making of an entirely new Ren'Py game with some commonalities and many features distinguishing it from the original game to make this a clean break, it makes the most sense to no longer use Oni's base art. I expect that this will be disappointing to any artists who have been working on outfits for the base art with the hopes of it being included in Chonky Mod, but I truly believe that having our own art source from now on will give us miles more creative freedom in the long term so far, I've arranged standing commissions with two new artists who have started to chip away at setting up the main characters and outfit sets. I've found another writer to help with the story and scenes, since we're going to have to start fresh there as well. finally, I have at least one new programmer who will be helping me with core game functionality, with another one who I'm assessing to see if they can help with animations this document goes into some further details about the project:

I'd like to clarify that I won't be abandoning getting Psylocke set up for Oni style, though I will likely wind up making another version of her as well and I will continue making UI and other assets
Just means she might not get as many outfits from me but she will be workable for others to make stuff for

@ ...... and @ ...... I hear your mixed feelings here, and I think I can partially allay them! since the game mechanics that will serve as the basis for the new game are the same that have gone into the Chonky Mod, it's actually... not that hard to mix and match characters designed by different people. therefore, you can expect us to release an optional "DLC" package containing Oni's art. the idea being that you can download a zip file containing Oni's art and the code required to support it, drop it into the new game's directory, and in-game toggle that you would like to use, say, Oni's Jubilee instead of our new Jubilee

I don't know, it seems a bit too ambitious. Discarding Oni's art being one of the game's best assests doesn't sit right with me. Including a story mod which might lock certain interactions behind storywalls or missions is something I'd really dislike, because this game being a date sim-sandbox is it's other greatest asset. I hope that whoever takes the art role makes a faithful imitation of Oni's style but with different positions so that the fucking Jean Gray Spiderwoman-like monstrosity stops haunting us all (and also to do justice to Jubes, ffs). And make story stuff optional, too, so that we can keeps our daily lives of haremblobbing anything that looks womanly.Ron Chon — Today

I have to agree, im hooked on the designs and the fact that you can do whatever the fuck you want in the game, Want to tell all other girls to fuck off and declare your undying love to rogue? you can.
I don't want to paint the devil on the wall. I smell trouble there, so far it was more or less a free mod, but now they are trying to make money through oni's preparatory work. I think they should contact oni first if they could work together or something similar. there are still copyrights. money changes everything. in the worst case, lawyers will have to be paid in the end.Ron Chon — Today

I'm curious how this will turn out I'm really hoping for mystic (it would bring a lot of new possibilities into the game) psylocke would be nice too. I would also like a further development for dancing and striping. A side view and a rear view of the normal posing for dancing would be nice instead of just the up and down so that it looks as if she is turning, of course a little breast wiggling should not be missing. more clothes and maybe missions and a combat system, destructible clothes in missions would be nice. to be honest right now the long term mutivation leaves a lot to be desired after the status bars are full it gets kind of boring and you start over.
