"Altered Destiny V0.02" Progress 4/21/20

Hey everyone,
Currently getting through V0.02 scene work. Progress has been going well scene wise. I just really need to catch up on text / polish. I've just been more motivated and creating animations/images right now, heh. Should begin streaming again in the next day or two.

Above is just a peek at a new character introduction that didn't quite make it into V0.01. An older gal. Here is her model during the past. You'll see her model age up about 20 years or so in present time.
I'll also be compressing images down quite a bit in V0.02. I just want to make sure the programs I run will reduce size without losing any kind of quality in the best way possible. So with V0.02, You'll likely see a smaller jump in file size (or even less?) as I'll be compressing what I can from V0.01's content.
ICCreations a suggestion for compression - lossless webp. No quality loss, better size than jpg.

Man, I keep seeing these other devs who just never stick to making and finishing one game with a full story. Even if it's short. And when challenged, they just give up. This guy makes good stuff, but I just wanna see a finished product that's longer than a 10 minutes.

I played all those. They all end way too soon and should've been 1 game.
In 2016, total size over 3 gigs for the 3 parts of The Artifact? No, they should have been split. I disagree with "end way too soon" - I was happy with the length.

And IA isn't part of The Artifact; no way it should have been included with the others in 1 game.

Don't bother, goobdoob.
I thought about answering him before you did, but then looked at his history and realized that the guy has a personal grudge against ICSTOR. We both know that what he said is simply untrue and his opinion about splitting The Artefact game into 3 parts being a bad idea has no value, considering the engine.
What he said qualifies as shitposting at best.

Yeah IA is a different game, but this is is always the same problem I have with him and Icstor. They have great ideas, they are making them, then they get bored for awhile, do something else, and then come back later as a new "story" or continuation. And size isn't a good indicator for length or quality. Size can come down to poor compression. I could easily make the stuff I am working on much larger by removing the compression and have it be over a gig easily. That doesn't help anyone though. I could go back and play all of the ones you listed, again, but from what I remember they all sort of just end. No real grand finale, just a "Thing happened, bye." and then he comes back and increases the length of the story. The only reason I am here is because I looked at my downloaded games, saw FILF and thought "Man, I wonder how many updates I've missed" and it was 0 because he wants to work on a new game before returning to FILF, like Icstor with Milfy City.

I agree that size is not a good indicator of length or quality. But that wasn't my point - my point is in 2016, 3 gigs is way too big. People complain about it now; back then 3 gigs would have been a non-starter. The game needed to be split.

We disagree on the length of each part being OK; that's fine. I'm not going to argue about that, that's personal preference.

I get it's personal preference, but they should at least have what seems like a planned ending. They always have that point where you feel like it should be the middle point of the game. Then it just stops.

I thought The Artifact did have the acts, and a planned ending

Altered Destiny V0.2 Progress 5/4

Hey everyone,
Currently, I'm polishing up what I have done with AD (scene and image wise) into the game. Want to have that all ready before I move on to new scenes. Overall, I hope to have V0.2 ready late next month (Please don't quote me on it, but if everything comes out well, I expect it to be ready around then). As soon as 0.2 is out, I'll be working on multiple FILF updates.
Above is the introduction to the last main cast member, Olivia. I will stream some content creation as soon as I finish polishing the new content that is finished. Should take me a couple days.

Still seems rushed and like the game is rushed near the end. like he was making the game, got bored, left, came back, got bored, came back, ended it. Glad he finished it, but still feels like the other devs do sometimes. Either get bored or slow down.

Altered Destiny V0.02 Progress Update 5/13

Hey everyone,
Scene creation has been coming along smoothly! I have around 6-8 scenes to go with one more location to put together. Here are some story-focused images.
