Hi all,

I've started making the events for episode 2 of Island 34. Of course I've started with the ones that were already hinted at the end of the first episode - spying on your patrner e.g. while she's taking a bath. I don't want to commit to a certain number of events that will be included in the next update and instead will try and do as many as I can in the two weeks I have dedicated for this update. I'll try and add free-roaming on the island as well with the locations you've already visited (the Island 34 CEO office, the Red Velvet and Emma's hotel room).This will requre some coding so I'll try and quite a few animations ready to be rendered, so I can do the actual coding while they're being cooked.

As usual, I'm sharing one of the first renders from the new version. Enjoy!

Hey dev why not take out the sandbox gameplay and just have a VN that lets the Male MC not a beta to Alice because right now your choices in game mean nothing and you can't tell her off when she bans you from the stipclub its a murder mystery and yet your to busy being a beta to do your job.

RenPy and Daz3D are free - there is nothing stopping you from creating such a game.

Here is the weekly progress update I shared on Patreon just now:

It's Friday again, so here is the (almost) weekly update on the progress of the next version. I've started with the repeatable events where you spy on Alice taking a bath in her bedroom. First one is done and it will have 20 animations. Just two of those animations should be rendered again, because of lighting and focus issues, but this is something that is expected and will not have any impact on the release in terms of delay. I've posed half the animations for the second event and started rendering them and in the meantime, I'll try and build the functionality for you to visit other locations freely instead of being confined in the house.

Is there any content in this game? You just skip time and stay in that house ... there is nothing to do.

Over 14 days and there is nothing. You can just watch her doing yoga ... In the morning there is a text "her room has a nice view over the garden and hot tub" but I cant do anything there.

And as always - no reason to have that crap free roam stuff in the first place. It is as linear as it gets (currently).

This is what I just shared on Patreon about the current state and the future of the game:

I've just posted the next version of Island 34 to my €20+ patreons, which means it will be made publicly available on January 10th. It includes a couple of animated repeatable events and another one where you can add some alocohol to your partner's drink and she'll be topless at the pool and the hot tub for the rest of the day.

So - what's next? The poll ended today and 74% of you chose to have i34 put on hold and start the third game in the SO/WW series. The poll was open for a week but it went heavily in favor of this option pretty much from day 1, so I started thoroughly documenting the code for i34. This is the reason this update has only a couple of new animated events, but in my more than a decade long experience in being a software developer, there are at least two people who will read the code you write - yourself and yourself after 6 months. Well documented code might not matter for the first one, but it will mean everything for the other one. Unfortunately it meant that I couldn't finish the free-roam mode for the whole island either but at least I got the code for it (somewhat) working - what's I couldn't do in time are the location renders and the schedules for all the other characters.

With the code documented and stashed away in a remote repository, I'm starting with the next game in the SO/WW series. I'll add a few touch-ups to the characters, which means I'll have to re-render the images I did for the WW epilogue, because the game will start a bit sooner than where it ended in the WW epilogue, so for the sake of consistency, I'll have to re-do some of those images. The main goal for the first version is to have the space battle mini-game done - WW ended with Rebecca rushing to intercept the transport before they board your ship, so this will be in the first version of the game. As usual, I'll share the first renders I make for the game as soon as they are ready.
tldr;
I'm putting "Island 34" on hold and as decided in the poll I'm starting with the third game in the SO/WW series. Again - this doesn't mean i34 is cancelled. I'll switch back to it after I'm finished with the next game, but I expect it to take more than a couple of years.

It's January 10th, so it's time for the public release of Island 34 ep.2 + events. I've just posted this on my Patreon, so I'm sharing the links here as well:

Hi all,

Here are the public links for Island 34:





Changelog:

- added two new animated repeatable events
- added one new event where you can put some alcohol in your patrner's drink and she'll be topless for the rest of the day at the pool and the hot tub
- 38 new animations
- 12 new images


Just a reminder that Island 34 is put on hold and I'm currently working on the third game in the SO/WW universe, so the next version for Island 34 will be released after at least a couple of years when I'm finished with the current project. Of course if the game is wildly successful and I can afford to quit my job and work just on the games, I might consider working on the two simultaniously ;) .

First, thank you for all your hard work!

Second, as someone with several project folders that I planned to finish sometime, but end up deleting after a year or two, please check from time to time how realistic it is that you actually will come back to it and don't hesitate to change the tag from [onhold] to [abandoned] sooner rather than later. Nothing worse than perpetual uncertainty.

Third, good luck with your new game!

i am not optimistic about this because very rarely would any one want to pick up a project they put on hold for that long.

It's a real shame because WW didn't work for me despite having pretty models and CG, and on I34 I saw NSFW Space step up his game - no pun intended - with better renders and animations and less sandbox-ing (aka fake gameplay) just to see him going back
