Episode 4 - Progress Report #16
Hey everyone
I'm getting very close to finishing renders for Episode 4! A couple more days and this massive milestone is done!
Progress:
- Writing: 99%
- Character models: 100%
- Environments: 100%
- Renders: 97%
- Day 10: 353/353
- Day 11: 460/460
- Day 12: 335/335
- Day 13: 550/600
- Music/Sound: 0%
Estimated release date: May
I've also spent some time fixing the save file naming feature, went hunting for typos and generally changed a bunch of dialog lines.
I'm confident that I can start working on sound sometime next week. I'll get you a release date as soon as I can estimate how much time I'll need for that last portion of development. So maybe I'll announce it in next week's progress report? We'll see, but it's not too much longer in any case .
❤ Thank you all for your support! Enjoy your weekend! ❤

I think the whole duplos thing depends on a person's personality and how well they can control their urges. As we seen Ashe has decent control but fails at times like with her sister or in the bathroom at her sister's place. I think Ashe might be a minority within the duplos community as the way the game describes them to me makes it seem like most lack the ability to control their urges. Tho maybe I missed something but that's the way I see things / remember them I do need to replay this game and plan to on the next update.So as far as I can tell duplos are obviously supposed to represent transgenders(more specifically trans women) but I still don't understand the point the game's trying to make. Is the hate against duplos justified? Because so far it seems like it is. Duplos are seen as sex fiends but the game really insists that Ashe is just a normal person with a very high sex drive who also just happens to be a duplo, but then she wants to fuck both her mother and sister. At first I just assumed incest was a normal thing in this universe until I got to the part where Rachel is disgusted by Ashe's advances.
No, duplos are not supposed to represent trans people (or any other group in the real world). I'm not trying to make a grand point about modern day politics or anything like that. If anything it's a much more general representation of how people treat others that are different than themselves.So as far as I can tell duplos are obviously supposed to represent transgenders(more specifically trans women) but I still don't understand the point the game's trying to make.

This is the downside with releasing a game like this before it is finished; you can't really just say "just play the game and find out/make up your own opinion" when people want the answer today. To be clear tho, that's not a criticism, just an observation.And it's something that every player might have to eventually answer for themselves.
The important part is that people pretty much always get descriminated for perceived differences. This is not exclusive to trans people, because every in-group has perceptions about out-groups for any reasons you could think of. That's just how bigotry works in every case. In fact I could probably think of several minorities that fit this game's duplo allegory better than trans people.I think this is kind of a mixed message here. Minorities are discriminate against or downright persecuted because of them being different.
When we have the "duplos", a very small minority of true hermaphrodites, being hated and feared because they are dissimilar from the perceived (by some) norm i believe it becomes hard not to draw paralels with what happens in real life with trans people.
judging by her shorts getting tighter too.I hope it was Shorty who sent her a photo of her fap-fap...
*Judging by her expression, it must be something hot
Nah deadass she is the most gorgeous 3D female i have ever seen(especially on f95). A perfect blend of big girl but tender. Morrigan has cooked insanely good with this.

The whole question if duplos actually are what everyone believes them to be, is something that will accompany Ashe throughout the story. And it's something that every player might have to eventually answer for themselves.
I hope the "you" in this warning is applying to everyone/situation as a whole and not blaming the Dev for correcting the original poster's assumption about the game...On this game thread let's call this the final word on this subject. If you want to further discuss issues that are going to devolve into political debates/disagreements please keep that in the off-topic forums. Thank you.
I would think that would be pretty obvious given I suggested the devs statement would be the final word on the matter...but...yesI hope the "you" in this warning is applying to everyone/situation as a whole and not blaming the Dev for correcting the original poster's assumption about the game...
