(MITY's latest Patreon post):


update - papercuts

Hello everyone! Hope you're having a good weekend!

This update is a bit later than you're used to because I've been feeling under the weather for a little more than a week. I can't really call it being sick because it is/wasn't bad enough for that. Walking around the house not really wanting to lie down but neither feeling like doing much of anything else.

Good enough to feel guilty about not being very productive though!

Death by a thousand papercuts comes to mind. Nothing by itself enough to be a problem, but all together big enough to act as a hurdle. Fall hasn't even officially started on the northern hemisphere and my body is already acting like it's winter. How different from a mere two weeks ago.

As I've already talked about in the last update, FET and 18Titans are currently being worked on in turns and this month there will (or rather should be) a new 18Titans build.

In theory...







I didn't work on 18Titans from the start of this month. Instead I was hooking up the end of book3 to the epilogue on Ember Island so the player can time travel back to that moment and replay those book 3 scenes. Provided the player is actually playing from a save game where he finished that book.

Doing that for book 3 was relatively easy, but it won't be so easy for book 2. I'm not looking forward to that. I'll have to replay book 2's slave and love route first though. I can't trust my older saves because during the testing I sometimes manually change variables. But I'm keeping that for later. Other than that I've been focusing on 18Titans this month.

Honestly I'm not very certain I can finish a new 18Titans build for September. I'll try my best as always, but I'm at the very least one scene behind of where I should be right now and things aren't going buttery smooth. More like "first time butt fun without the lube" kind of smooth. That can change within a day, but even if it does that still won't leave me with a lot of time to do any sort of catching up.

At the start of this month I was considering having a poll to gauge interest in me doing another spooky times standalone story, but that was assuming I'd actually finish 18Titans this month. If I manage to finish an 18Titans build this month I might still have that poll.

For anyone who doesn't know, you can find two standalone stories inspired on Halloween and involving Avatar characters called "Spookytimes" It's a hub page with some links to older projects etc.


Oh, almost forgot! I'll be getting a decent internet connection at the end of this month if all goes well. Very happy with that. Up until now I always had to put FET builds on an external hdd and go somewhere else to upload it since my own connection is too slow for larger files. There simply wasn't a better alternative for a long time.

Essentially this will make no difference to anyone of you. It's just that it will make things slightly easier for me. I'm telling you this just in case shit goes awry. I've had things go wrong in the past with my internet connection so it's still difficult to assume things will go right from the start.

And that's about all I have to mention for now. I'll go back to working on 18Titans again!

cheers!

Hey guys a little stuck here I've pretty much gotten past a fair point in the maze but there is a metal door that I can't open. Person inside says someone patrolling the area has the key fought like 20 of the enemies so far but no key. In the area where sokka is asking for rats.

I've only watched the ATLA, not the Legend of Korra,But book 4 made me really love Jinora。
So I search some comics to read, and I got《Under My Thumb》at 2 a.m。
Now I really hope this game will be updated soon ,then i can heal my broken heart.:cry:

imo should just try to use the head, body anatomy seems way too off with this
just a critique, dont have to pay it any mind if u dont want to
Nah that’s fine. I’m trying to get genuine feedback here.

The problem with Ursa in FET is she only has one small scene with Zuko/Ozai, and barely any of her actual body is shown. So I’m working with breadcrumbs essentially. I kept the body to show her robes, but if I had to paint over Lin’s clothing (or whoever else’s), I could probably try and do that.

Yea I figured that would be an issue to creating scenes with her, really wish she got more screentime/poses in the game
Maybe try Pema's body? Ik she has a bunch of poses with her face looking forward, in both love and slave route

Would be nice if they actually somehow covered her comic story in a future update, or in a Spookytime, the more milf content the better :p

I'm assuming you're talking about 3 jail cells. NOT a patrol. The guy is sitting in a room on the right side.

Agreed. Hope we get some of that in Spookytimes 3!

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll have to experiment. Regardless, I want to make this Ursa content happen lol.

Wait we're getting a spookytimes 3? :p:p:p
Hope <> we're getting = two different things
Right now it's rather unlikely we'll get another spooky time episode this year.

I tested your game, here is some feedback:

I'm a fan of Zuko (and Sokka) but I don't see the reason to make him the mc of this game. But that's just my preference and doesn't belong to the feedback. Anybody who tries to make mods for FET can't do wrong in my book.

positive:
+++ the visit from a certain relative
+++ the visit from a shy person
+++ multiple reasonable story additions
+ no money grind (that's probably a triple + for most)

negative:
--- The text pacing is annoying. I understand you want the player to read the text in a certain way but a fixed pacing is always a bad idea in visual novels. Anyone who wants to read, will do so in his/her own speed.
-- The pacing of Katara's training. You tried to give a reasonable explanation and for a porn game it's probably good for most. But as someone who knows the series the "love on first sight", I don't really buy. Zuko is too much out of character and often behaves childish and renegade, which would somewhat fit for the slave route but not for love.
I get it's pretty hard to write a good story but you had a good thing going on with the shared past of both characters. Maybe expand on that. (Katara trusted Zuko for the first time when he told her of his scar in Ba Sing Se.)

neutral:
Not sure about the added sounds/music. Some are good, some are used too often imo.

I wasn't quite sure which Zuko we play and if he's the same when he's send away by the spirit. From his looks it's the "good" one but from some of his comments it's the restless one. Maybe flesh that out more.

Why is Zuko bad at hunting Moose Lions, he's using fire bending?

Btw., if you need certain art assets to make a scene worth, you could try your luck asking Marty directly. If he has time, and it's easy/fast to do, it's not unlikely he'll help you.

Hey, thanks for the feedback! I’ll definitely take what you said into account and apply it to the next build.

Seeing as it’s the first one, I didn’t expect it to be good or perfect or anything. It’s a proof of concept, and from here it can only get better if I improve what needs to be.

To briefly touch on the negatives and neutrals:

- Yeah, I added a loooot of pauses in the text to add ‘immersion’, but from what you’re saying, it didn’t pan out too well lol.

- The structure for the OG Book 1 was mostly kept in this build, hence the quick pacing. If need be though, it might be better to just try something totally different. I’ll have to think more on that.

- Noted. I’ll ease back on some of the sound effects.

- If Marty would do that, that’d be AWESOME. It’d especially help me a lot with the Ursa stuff, because she barely has anything. Right now I have to rely on her only Book 2 appearance and whatever other art pieces I can put together.
