This week I worked on several different scenes, including group and branch-specific scenes for all major branches. To name a few, I've been working on scenes with Camila, Josy, Jill, Maya, Sage, Isabella, and Quinn.

I experimented a bit with a new animation technique, completed a shorter lewd scene, and started planning/writing some Rooster content.

Because I've focused hard on static renders for a while, I now have ~240 renders waiting in the render queue.

I'll be posing render #2500 in a day or two from now, and I'm very pleased with the development in general.

The animation queue is still big. PCs have started rendering some threesome animations. As a rule of thumb, the time needed to produce an animation increases for each character you add to it. And I'm noticing this slight increase in render time for these animations.

I will power on as usual with static renders next week and maybe do a bit of writing as well.

I'm thinking about playtesting parts of the episode soon. Since I've been focusing on producing art for quite some time now, I haven't played the episode in like 1.5 months.

I usually playtest a bit here and there during development to perform some polishing and get a feel for the episode.

Have a nice weekend

Thank you very much... again and again for posting these.

So yeah considering the numbers... no need to be a fortune teller, still mid-late october is the best bet for a release i think, and this is of course no suprise, Halloween episode, its obvious that this was the plan from the start even before the interlude was made.

I believe people are generally discouraged to openly admit they have maya as their favourite LI after all the shit tossing that went in this topic some time ago :HideThePain:

I've always had maya as my first choice and only saw josy as a nuisance. after reading some of the posts in the thread I've given josy a chance and rather liked her after replaying a "josy" path

still, maya>josy and that's about it for me. maybe a sage route but I'm not even as nearly enthusiastic about it as about a maya solo path
True and Maya crushing used to be more prevalent in the old days. Now it's quite a change to see someone boldly walk in, unzip, flop his dick on the table and say, "I love Maya. There, what's up now bitchez? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ "
Gotta respect that.
As much as people hang shit on characters:
  • Jill the goblinoid retarded princess.
  • Bella the axe murdering psycho.
  • Maya the drama queen with granny skin.
  • Sage the angry mental health case.
  • Josy the perfect girl next door foil for Maya.
  • Quinn the rat faced, boy-bodied cunt.
  • Zoey the blue-haired, inappropriately timed, complete waste of development resources, Interlude star that nobody asked for (except me and the croissant).
I don’t get the sense that people hate on each other for their chosen LI.

We debate the pros and cons, heavily insult these pixelated bitches, but really, there’s no shaming going on here.:giggle:

Personally I like them all, but Bella I find the least enjoyable (but I do wanna know her secrets).

I'm not really talking about the hate as much as someone just unabashedly professing love for Maya while at the same time showing indifference to Josy. That is a new one. At least that I've seen.

This has been probably answered 100 times but I can't seem to find it. How do you open the console to add cheats?

I respectfully disagree. I have no problem with being an outsider, especially on an internet forum.

But Maya used to be better, both in a relative sense, and an actual sense. Maya in the first few episodes isn't just a love interest, she's your best friend, a fellow outsider. Its the two of you, back to back against the world. She's also interesting, mysterious and happy. Contrast that to a few episodes later, and while some may take the lesbian betrayal personally (I didn't) her personality changes. She becomes mopy, low energy and irrationally angry. Meanwhile, all the other characters (human characters anyway, raccoons don't count) only get better as the episodes go on. Sage goes from cool slut, to cool slutty friend who has your back and is pretty damn capable, Bella goes from ice queen, to mentor figure who is exploring her sexuality and intimacy issues with you, Josy....returns and is Josy I guess...I'm not really a Josy guy. So while Maya used to be just the BEST girl, she got knocked down, while everyone else rose up. She's still working on getting some of that luster back, but she's doing good.

I am, and have always been a Maya fan, I'm enough of a Maya fan that I even bang Josy to make her happy, i know, i know, its a huge sacrifice, not all heroes wear capes.

Sage still best girl though.

Yeah, I agree with those sentiments.

The mc started off shy and rather "wet behind the ears". He timidly chatted to Josy, its likely he never even would have made contact if she hadn't walked in on him rehearsing his lines to her.

He had almost no power with Quinn, she called all the shots and he just looked weak.

He was ready to leave college because the DIKs were mean to him.

Now he's pretty much Rusty's right hand man, he's fucked just about every girl on campus, and he's dating whichever typically unattainable girl you wanna choose - the preppy princess (Jill), the librarian ice queen (Bella), the HOT president (Sage) or the manipulative bitch (Maya... no sorry, I mean Quinn :p).

He thinks nothing of whipping his cock out in front of a bunch of girls in a jacuzzi for them to suck on.

He almost singlehandedly spearheaded the recovery of the DIK mansion.

He's taken on every tough guy on campus and mostly won.

Underdog stories are good while they are climbing out of the pit, but the mc's now at the top.

There's no one left to prove himself to, there's no one left to conquer. So, what's left for him to do?

There's really just a bunch of fun events (Halloween, Christmas, New Years, Thanksgiving, Spring Break), and maybe one or two new antagonist (Vinny, and/or perhaps Burke), and then it's happily every after.

Oh yeah, and then there's Zoey... :sneaky:
I personally hate underdog stories. They're a dime a dozen and not at all hard to write. But a good writer (DPC is pretty good) can write a story about a powerful character and still have it be engaging, they do need to come up against challenges and obstacles, but just because they're strong, doesn't make them not interesting.

I don't think we are really in disagreement. Maya was popular in the beginning until the big reveal. After that, her popularity dropped off (for various reasons) and many true Maya fans disappeared into the shadow realm. It's cool that they are coming back into the light now. Maybe the OP and I have given them courage to return. You're right, not all heroes wear capes...I'm a hero too now :cool:
I haven't seen this much Maya love since season 1.
