Unity Cloud Meadow [v0.2.1.1 Patreon] [Team Nimbus]

[sudieken]

What? to say that gameplay doesn't matter at all is pretty narrow minded. It is a porn GAME after all. I agree that The art is slight more important to me then both gameplay and story, but still

I'm not saying the gameplay doesn't matter, I'm saying if you're after quality gameplay as opposed to art (like you stated before) why are you playing porn games? That's why I suggested games by actual developers that are enjoyable to play.

The point is that the art is taking huge cuts. Breeding season had (or was going to) actual ART for every sex interaction in the game. In Cloud Meadow 75% of that is going to be sprite animations that are shitty as shitty comes. Breeding Season had a traits system where you could have animals that were freal, futa, loli ect, all with actual animations. Cloud Meadow doesn't even have that at all

Yeah and that was a massive problem. If you do the math, between all of the traits, genders, and creatures they needed to make thousands of animations. That's why they went through like 4 artists and 3 art styles before S-Purple even got involved. The scope of the game required a large team of professional animators with more experience than Tumblr smut.

The idea that all of the monsters having different traits and interacting with eachother is nice on paper, but after years of development they had about 5% of the possible combinations. It doesn't count.

I'm not looking for quality AAA gameplay, i'm looking for the basics. Everything that's in the game currently is either whether it be farming to dungeon crawling is, utterly boring, when it even works. In fact I think you might be right, this "game" would be better if it was just a gallery.

First of all 5% is completely wrong, about 10-20% of the scenes were done. The only problem was the way it was managed. If the game was still being developed it would be on its finishing stretch by now, if not done, and would be a thousand times better then whatever excuse this is for a game.

This is a huge "if" though. Even if S-Purple hadn't pulled his art the game was doomed because, as you said, it was badly managed by H-Bomb. How do you overcome something like that? It's not like the rest of the staff can mutiny.

You're right it is a big "if." Even with the rate it was going and with all the mismanagement I still liked the game much more then I do this one though. Also I don't want it to sounds like I'm just shitting on S-purple and defending H-bomb, I think they are both horrible.

Here's the problem with Breeding Season:
-There were 10 Species: Cat, Wolf, Harpy, Stallion, Holstaur, Elf, Demon, Mandrake, Swine, Seraph
-Between the Male, Female, Futanari, Neoteny, and Feral traits, there are 12 different versions of each species.
-Multiply the species with the possible combinations of traits and you've got 120 different possible characters, plus 2 including the Breeders themselves.
-Calculating the combinatorial explosion, there would need to be 7,503 animations to account for every possible combination of those 122 characters.

There wasn't a chance in hell that Breeding Season would ever be completed.

That is a big number, if you designed each scene individually. From what i remember, they started with a doll system that they could swap characters in to provide all combinations quite easily. It's only after they changed the art and scene style that it became a massive animation hurdle.

I mean what do we expect from what I understand the developer of cloud meadow basically stole from the original game designer. That kind of reminds me how in professional gaming like how EA swallows up a good game design company and the the game turns to shit. The maker of cloud meadow is no more than a thief who doesn't have good ideas and just figured he could make a crap game and sell it to make money much like EA. In fact, it seems he should go work for EA.

Considering that about half of the western game on this site are VN like renpy games about a dude screwing his mother and his sister, you have to admit that at least, S-Purple is original in the choice of the ideas he is stilling.

You forgot to mention they're all hideously created in DAZ 3D using purchased assets. Bonus points if the writing sucks ass or the English is incomprehensible. Incest + DAZ + god awful writing = at least half of western games.

soooo, the codes aren't working...how come?

 

[Ortennar]

Hi!

How to grow a dragon from an egg?

I buy Neo-incubator... No hatched. Egg disappears as I exit the menu Neo-incubator


No... i use neo-incubator. Need all seeds (all monsters) and add egg dragon, and go =)

.... is this worth trying? I mean they separated from Breeding seasons 3 years ago or so now and they still are only on what? 0.0.1? isn't that pre-alpha or just alpha? and they have been going for 3 years of continuing support by over 4000 patreons...

 

[LoafyLemon]

Three years later:

v0.01.6b
Changes

• Improved credits UI

Three years later:

and it's supposed to be a finished game in 6 months too according to the devs

 

[Ortennar]

Yes... But, devs fix many bugs. Many work

 

[RedPillBlues]

Yeah the bugs do work, in fact I think the bugs are the best working feature in the game.

Lol, from the sound of your postings I can't (inner-)read your comments without imagining a heavy soviet Russian accent.

The current version is beta 0.0.1.6.
They started over the numbering by 0.0.0 when they moved out of alpha in June.
The last alpha version was 2.03.4, which was released in May.

Nobody solved my question of not being able to do anything after big rock gits barn and not being able to interact with it and monsters reappear at farm, should I try previous version, where would that version be at?
