I appreciate the diligence in researching the bug. I've added this to the glitch list and will figure out what is going on before the next update for sure. Without going into the details of the code, regardless of where the problem is, I think I've already thought of a better way to implement that feature so that there is zero probability to error. I'll definitely keep you all posted and thanks again for spotting the issue! Cheers mate!



:ROFLMAO:
Why thank you!

No worries mate. And again, I do appreciate the suggestion! Cheers!



The pregnancy will occur when it is most appropriate to the story. I don't have a hard time line nailed down, but I'll know when it feels right for certain. Sorry for the non-committal answer but I'd rather be honest about it.



Appreciate the confirmation mate. Thanks!



So now that my script for converting scrivener files into renpy code is complete and thoroughly tested, my plan is to try and do a release every two to three months.

Since I've been working from home I've been slacking on the real job quite a bit and devoting time to daily live streams to work on the art. Progress has been a lot faster and that Cassie chapter was completed in about four to five months. Which sounds like a long time but when considering the size and scope, and the fact I'm one man team, it's pretty impressive.

But future chapters will be shorter and come out a lot faster. This is my intent anyway. I'm hoping I can continue to pirate time away from the real job long enough to build up enough patron support to cease the regular job and just do this full time.



I do have a vision. And a lot of that early stuff is going to get some retouching and reworking now that the code has been rebased and I'm the sole developer. Most of those earliest scenes were done in collaboration with a team that is no more. And some of the story points were co-developed and compromised on.

As a lot that material gets updated to work with the new code base, I plan the thicken up and expound on a lot of the earlier relationships. (One point that was made very early on is that you are given the option to cheat before having even met your wife in the game. Some players felt blind sided by that choice early on and I can understand why).

That said, I hate to comment too much on the Roger/Emily situation as I intend to give the players more frequent and earlier interactions with her when the time comes. This may clarify some of the questions as well as generate some new paths and opportunities for navigating your marriage.
Any plans to potentially convince Emily to participate in threesomes while not directly cheating on the mc? Or do you see each of the mc’s lovers only interacting with him one-on-one, ignorant of any other sexual relationships he may be also in?

Yay!!! I loved Lita!! Good to know that she is going to have a larger role!!

Although I have to make a small complain here: Lola, Lita and Lupita? Seriously? Too confusing names when one of those has a cock! :eek: :lepew:

Really really happy to have lots more Lita!! I wpuld love to have her showing up in MC's regular life. Even love to see her as a love interest on her own! Dating her too.

Lita shows up at MC's job not caring a shit, dressed too provocatively for the place. Nanami won't take her eyes away from her with a stern expression.
Lita: Hey, we need to talk.
MC: what the fuck are you doing here? And lower your voice.
Lita: why? Are you afraid somebody will know the big serious guy likes fucking prostitutes raw?
MC: Shhhh. I told you to lower your voice. What do you want?
Lita: I need money to go to the hospital.
MC: ok.. why are you feeling bad? and why should I care about it?
Lita: Dude, I need your help. You put me in this mess.. remember what I had to do for you.
MC: ok ok damn. I'll give you a check. Just don't show up here.
Lita: No. You need to go with me. Pretend I'm your girlfriend, niece or whatever, but you need to go with me.
MC: why? Is something serious? You are worrying me.
Lita:..... I'm pregnant and is yours.
Just sayin’, won’t have that problem with Lola. I did laugh out loud in the cheats that had her (Lola aka Samantha Hartley) either pregnant or on the pill. :D

Just remember this and you'll never get confused.
*ehem queue *
Her name is Lola, she has a banana...
She'll plow you at the Copa, Copacabana.

Lola by the Kinks is where I believe Roman got the name.
Lola in the Barry Manilow song was a showgirl :)

2021-03-05 News
You know what I like? Writing news posts where I get to say "Everything is great and we're moving right along!"

So here we go, another boring news post where I get to tell you how smooth things are going! (Might have to move these news updates to every two weeks instead of every week.)

Seriously though, things are good. We're in the groove and everything is trucking right along.

We had four great streams this week to work on Lupita's chapter and the early artwork coming out of that process is wonderful!

Reception of the last release is still making the circuits but the majority of players seem pleased and the only bugs we're getting are few gui related inconsistencies that don't throw errors or break saves.

That's about it! We made it folks!

I'm just going sit back, continue writing story and make renders with you four to five days a week.
We're on easy street!

That can't be it can it?

Well, ok. Not exactly. I do have some other things in the works. I guess I could share those with you.

The Script Converter

I have made a few changes to the way I write and code the game. But with our programming resting on the foundation of this Scrivener to Renpy converter, making those kinds of changes is easy and seamless. I just program some new tags for the converter to look for in the script, tell it what to do with them, and the game updates itself.

And since those new tags mostly relate to just logic statements, it doesn't change or break anything in the game. So as we go forward I'll continue to add tags as needed and fine tune the process. But a thirty minute programming session to the algorithm saves us hours of programming time on the game and just adds functionality and options.

3D Art Improvement

Let's not kid ourselves. This Cassie chapter has some of the most beautiful renders I've ever put together. My skill set with Daz, lighting, posing and 3D has certainly come a long way. But guess what, we can go further!

Now I'm not talking about any kind of major overhauls in the art or anything. But more like subtle improvements that come with the continued perfection of a process. A couple of things I'm looking to integrate on the very near horizon are:
  • Substance: It turns out that the has become quite affordable in the last year. For $20 a month I can get access to Substance Painter, Substance Designer and Substance Alchemist. Access and training in this software will help us fix surface problems and inconsistencies in the game quickly. Makeup, mismatched skin tones, improved textures. In time, there should be no surface effect or we can't fix or achieve. And the results can be exported back into Daz or into Blender, so even as we grow in skill the value of this investment will grow with us.

  • Zbrush: Like Substance, the price of seems to have become rather affordable in the last year as well. For $40 a month or $200 every six, we have access to the latest version of ZBrush. My real goal with ZBrush is the creation of highly detailed normal maps. Now for those who don't know, normal maps are used to create highly detailed surface textures on low poly meshes. It's how you achieve ultra high quality detail like skin pore and wrinkles without adding geometry or increasing your render time. If you want to see some amazing examples of what hardcore training in Zbrush can accomplish, check out this work by Obviously we aren't going to achieve that level of detail any time soon. But it's an example of why it's a worthy investment. And again, the surfaces and normals we create in Zbrush are directly exportable to Daz or Blender.

  • Blender: And of course my Blender training continues to get stronger by the week as I continue to complete different courses and tutorials. Learning all the ins and outs. I plan to start by using Blender to create props and environments. As that process is perfected and we get fast and accurate with it, we'll start to move up to character work and animations.
These are short to long term goals. The Substance integration I think we can have integrated in the next month or so. Zbrush and Blender will take a bit longer.

But hey! Since I'm trying to transition to working on the game full time and all we're doing is writing story and making renders, I figure we have some flexibility to start learning new skills that will take this game and any future ones we make to the highest level possible!

I have always loved working on this project. But with each new level we hit in development, my enthusiasm just continues to grow.

These are exciting times and I look forward to seeing where we go from here!

Salute!



*Well damn, that turned out longer than I thought it would*

Why is the mc so obsessed with his not daughters sex life? Bad enough she's not a virgin but do we really need to know what her favorite sex position is and what birth control she uses? :KEK: Next he'll be asking how big her ex boyfriends were and if she swallow.:WutFace:
You clearly mean Neighbour's Daughter and you know after latest chapter we still don't know if she swallows :)

and when we have games like [cant write about another game] and [cant write about another game] etc..where sex animation sometimes almost look real and then you go back to something with animation "inferior" or lacking it does not do anything, no matter how good story is :p
Why hold back? I demand VR support, AI-controlled NPCs and complete freedom in fully developed world! ;) I admit, I'm getting a little too ahead. By so are you with animations. They are of course great, but so far in 2021 still only 'nice to have', not required.

Tell you what, if we can hit $24k a month like Summer Time Saga then once a quarter I'll raffle off a $6k Realdoll modeled after a character of your choice! Doesn't get any realer than that*

That's $24k worth of sex dolls going out to fans a year! Talk about a win!

so you are oki with me taking your car and replace it with a 50 dollar moped?
Did this game have "VR support, AI-controlled NPCs and complete freedom in fully developed world!" which the developer then removed ???

this game had good animations and then they were cut out from the game, there is not even gallery scene from the old release in the new release

again.....I did not ask the dev to add something, just maintain the same it had before.
dev explained that he had to downgrade the game because "#"#¤ daz and all that and that is fine with me, it is his game to do with whatever.
you sound like I wanted to inject new stuff when the conversation was about old stuff that had been removed

Which will be added back in at a later time. In the meantime 1.15 is still up there to download.

RomanHume how much do these Real Dolls that you're raffling off cost to make?
They start at like $6k and go up from there.


Though all jokes aside, if I was making that Dark Cookie scratch, I'd totally spend $10k a month raffling off custom sex dolls of my characters. :ROFLMAO: That'd just be fucking awesome.
