Development Diary 4 – Sprite Arm Poses, Background Art, New Interfaces & Opening Theme Vocals!


Next up, we’re going straight into our fourth development diary, with detailed reports on what the team has been up to over the past month!

Part 1 – Sprite Arm Poses & Side Character Sprites!

Last month, we previewed new sprite poses unlocked as a stretch goal on Kickstarter for our main characters, and now, we’re happy to show off even more sprite features as part of that goal – additional arm movements for existing character poses!



These new arm movements make the cast even more dynamic, allowing their poses to express an even wider variety of emotion, adding more depth to both light-hearted and emotional moments!


Arm movements aren’t all that’s been done too – we’re also happy to show off a clearer shot of Ace and the Jocks including two new poses for our side characters, Matt and Jacques! Check out the full compilation below:



All of these sprite poses and arm movements are only the beginning, and we’ll show off more sprite work, including costumes, side characters, superbacker cameos and more in later development updates!

Part 2 – Background Art

Next up, just like in our last development update, we’re happy to show off even more 3D renders made by Micman and Zemyx of two more locations around the Campus – the mess hall and club houses!



Looking to grab a bite to eat? Or maybe it’s a Friday and it’s time to party? Either way, these locations will be perfect for traveling to and exploring, and may even provide Ace with new opportunities for character interactions throughout the story!


You can look forward to even more location previews throughout our development, in both the 3D render state and completed states!

Part 3 – New Interfaces & UI Design

Next, we showed off the Campus Map Gameplay Preview in our last development diary, and we’re happy to show it off again, but with its completed interface! Check it out below:

You must be registered to see the links

There’s lots to see and unpack here, so we’ll itemize it all down below!

• Energy, Hunger and Money – On the top left, you can see your three resource stats, and determine how much Ace can do in the day!
• Date and Time – On the top right, you’ll see the current time, as well as the date, helping you remember when planned activities will happen!
• New & Improved Quick Menu – On the bottom right, the new and improved quick menu can give you all the information you need – check out your current affection with the Jocks, your studio funds, and even your performance stats, as well as access the settings menus!
• The Map Itself – Finally, the map itself is much like we previously previewed but with even more details. Under certain circumstances, view where the Jocks are at certain times of day, and hover over a location to let you know where it is, ensuring you never get lost!

That’s a whole lot of information – but don’t worry! There will always be a handy tutorial available on the bottom left of the screen, making an easy reference for any questions you might have throughout gameplay!

Finally, some of you may have noticed that the character stat icons appear different from what they did in our previous development update – our graphic artist, Peach has ironed out their designs, making them fit more into the aesthetic of Jock Studio. Check them out below:


These stats still function the same as in our previous update, and if you want to learn more about them, you can read it below!

Part 4 – Opening Theme Vocals

Last, to close out our development update, we have one final exciting preview – a snippet of our opening theme, with vocals! Check it out below:

You must be registered to see the links

Composed by Goomin Nam and with vocals and lyrics by Keno, the Jock Studio Opening theme is guaranteed to get stuck in your head, and you can look forward to hearing the full version in the future, alongside the opening video!

Closing Word
That’s all for this development update, and this will be the last Jock Studio development update of the year! We’d like to once again express how thankful we are to everyone for their support of our brand-new project, and our team is still in shock at how much love you have all shown for it during the Kickstarter campaign and beyond! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much!

We are so excited to continue working on Jock Studio in the new year, and we can’t wait to show you all more development previews and updates! We’re still working our hardest to ensure that Jock Studio will be the best BL Game – we won’t let you down!

That’s all for now, and we wanted to let everyone know that the next Jock Studio Update will be at the end of January / early February, so please stay tuned till then! In the meantime, we will have one more update next week, featuring some news about Camp Buddy: Scoutmaster Season and other Winter News!

Thank you as always for your support, Olympians, and we’ll see you soon!

Lots of love,

~BLits Games

Having this on Unity means I can't scrollback to undo and try other dialogue options without loading. But then again, I guess Camp Buddy does not have that feature either...

since the dev can lock the scrollback feature even when they are using renpy, but renpy compatibility is much greater than unity so that is one thing

Jock Studio Development #5


Fellow Olympians, we’re back with our first Jock Studio Development Update of 2024, featuring new previews, development updates and more! Please read the following post for full details, as it contains information for all fans of Jock Studio!

Physical Reward Previews – Body Pillow Undies Variant

First up, we have a preview of the final variant of the Jock Studio Body Pillows – the undies variant! If the standard variant is too clothed for you, or the naked variant is a little too risqué, then this version is perfect! Check out the full character round up below:



You can see these variants, alongside both Standard and Naked Variants for each character at our merch preview site now! Check it out below if you haven’t yet:

You must be registered to see the links

Additionally, we have some great news – anyone who has already purchased a Body Pillow cover as part of their pledge or as an add-on on PledgeManager will be receiving an image set for the character(s) and costumes(s) of their choice!* These bonus image sets will be sent out early next week (February 5th, 2024), so please watch the email you used for PledgeManager for the download links! We’ll also make an announcement on the BLits Twitter page when all images have been sent out!

Image sets for all characters will also be available on Mikkoukun’s Patreon at a later date.


That’s all for physical merchandise previews this update, but if you haven’t yet, please make sure and check out PledgeManager! There’s still time to purchase add-ons, upgrade your pledge, or sign up if you haven’t yet!

Development Diary 5 – Background Art, Gameplay Previews, and Superbacker Character Reveals!

Next up, we’re going straight into our fifth development diary, with detailed reports on what the team has been up to since our last update in early December!

Part 1 – Background Art

First up, continuing from our previous development update, we have some previously previewed 3D renders of backgrounds that have now been finished by our background artist, Monacodingo! Check them out in their completed glory:



You can visit all of these beautifully scenic locations throughout your Jock Studio gameplay experience, whether it’s to grab a bite, visit a friend’s room, or lounge with the Jocks!


These locations are far from the only ones in game, though. Micman and Zemyx have also been working to create even more 3D renders for our background artists, previewed below:


Pretty cool, right? You can only imagine the kinds of antics Ace and the Jocks will involve themselves in with areas like these!

We’ll have even more location previews in later updates too, and all will be explorable in the full game, so please stay tuned!

Part 2 – Gameplay Previews: Updated Sprite Scene & Action Interface

We’ve shown a couple of early Gameplay Previews in previous updates, and we’re excited to be showing off even more now, combining the interface design work of our graphic artist, Peach, with our programmers, Sticmac and Zemyx!

First up, we have a preview for the newly updated Sprite Scene! It’s quite a bit different from what was seen in the first demo, so we’ll let Ace explain it all below:



Thanks, Ace – now don’t have too much fun with the Jocks! As he explained though, the Sprite Scene Interface has seen various improvements and quality of life updates including:

• New Time, Date & Location Interfaces with sleek & easy to read design.
• Quick menu and phone button for easy App Access (stay tuned for more information about this in a later update…)
• New Energy Bar and Status Condition symbols
• Resized Dialogue Box for more viewing pleasure

Pretty cool, right? But that’s not our only gameplay preview for this update! We previously showed off the Campus Map interface, but what happens when you actually travel to a location? Check out the preview below to find out!

You must be registered to see the links

Truly take control of how Ace’s journey unfolds with the Action Interface! Not only will you be able to travel quickly between locations with the Campus Map Interface, but you’ll also be able to determine how Ace spends his time (and energy), whether it’s through sleeping (as seen above), studying, hanging with friends, or even more spicy scenarios!

You can look forward to much more information about this interface and how it works in future development updates!

Part 3 – Superbacker Character Reveals!

Finally, to round off this development diary, we are pleased to show off the early designs for the characters belonging to our Superbackers! For those who don’t know, superbackers are individuals who pledged in specific tiers during our Kickstarter Campaign, specifically:

• Olympian Tier – Create a Side Character who will be directly involved in the story and events of the game, with full sprite artwork and costumes!
• Varsity Tier – Create a Cameo Character that features as one of the Jock’s teammates and appears in background artwork throughout the game.
• Bachelor Tier – Create a Cameo Character to appear in background artwork throughout the game.

Over the past few months, we’ve worked with these individuals to create their characters, from compiling information to the final concept design work by Mikkoukun and Magia! Check out a preview of all the character concepts below:


Character Design by Mikkoukun

Character Design by Magia


We hope that everyone, especially our Superbackers, welcomes and enjoys these new additions to Jock Studio! You can look forward to seeing full renders of the Bachelor and Varsity Tier characters in Background Art throughout the game, and detailed sprites and more from the Olympian Tier characters as well!

Finally, we’d also like to mention our additional tier of superbackers, the Club Manager Tiers. These tiers were eligible to design a costume for each member of the main cast of Jock Studio. We’re still working on them, but you can look forward to their exciting costume reveals in a future development update!

Applications Update
That’s all for our Development Diary #5, but before we completely close out the update, we wanted to let everyone know that we are still reviewing applications that have been submitted for Background Artists and Animation Studios, so please stay tuned for more information about both of these positions in the future!

Closing Word
That’s all for this development update, Olympians, but we hope that everyone enjoyed all the exciting previews and new information shared above! We’ll be back with another development update in early March, and you can also look forward to the release of the Camp Buddy: Scoutmaster Season Lovense Patch before that! Please stay tuned!

Thank you as always for your love and support!

Lots of love,

Fellow Olympians, we’re back with another Jock Studio Development Update, featuring our latest Development Diary containing new previews, teasers, and more! Please read the following post for full details, as it contains information for all fans of Jock Studio!

Development Diary 6 – Oracle Phone, New Character Reveal, Sprite Costumes, and Background Art!



We’re starting this update straight off with our sixth development diary, with detailed reports on what the team has been up to since our last update in early February!

Part 1 – The Oracle

First up, we have a preview for a very special device – the Oracle! Once enrolled at Olympus U, every student receives one of these handy phones, complete with free cellular & internet service, a contact list, apps, and more to assist with their education and curriculum! Check out a 3D render of the device, made by Micman, below:

You must be registered to see the links

Pretty awesome, right? But how does it work in-game? When playing Jock Studio, your Oracle Smartphone is always right at your side, easily accessible to check your game settings, save or load a file, and much more!



As you can see above, there’s quite a lot of apps inside the phone! Each one of these can be clicked on and accessed for various different features. All of this may seem overwhelming, but don’t worry, you’ll have an assistant on hand to help you with everything you need! Introducing…

Part 2 – New Character Reveal

…your own personal Interactive Oracle Assistant, or IO for short! IO comes built into every Oracle, and assists Ace (and every student) when they need help learning how a feature of the phone, or any other tutorial in the game, works! You’ll be spending a great deal of time chatting with him, so check out his full character sheet, designed by Mikkoukun and Zael, below:



There’s lots more to learn about IO and the Oracle, but that’s all for now! Stay tuned for more updates about the apps, as well as sprite artwork for IO in a later development update!

Part 3 – Writing

Next up, we wanted to give everyone a quick update about the writing process – we’re happy to announce that, as of this month, the concept and detailed storyboarding for Jock Studio has begun! We’re beginning the process of creating the story of the game, and expect to have many more details about it soon, so please stay tuned!

Part 4 – New Sprite Costumes

On top of writing and the Oracle Phone, our artists, Mikkoukun & Zael, has been hard at work designing new sprite costumes! Ace may have already debuted with his sleep attire during the first demo, but the other Jocks are ready to show off their cuddle wear! Check out the full roundup of sleep attire for the main cast below:



These cute and cuddly concepts will be turned into full sprite costumes soon, so stay tuned for the completed artwork at a later date! That isn’t the only sprite costumes we’re going to be showing, this update though!

Part 5 – Superbacker Costumes

Last update, we showcased our Superbacker Character designs for the Varsity, Bachelor and Olympian Tiers. Now, we’re happy to show off the final Superbacker reward concepts, Character Costumes for the Club Manager Tiers! Check them all out below:



These costume concepts came from each of our backers, and were designed by Mikkoukun! Each of the seven will have full sprite artwork on the Jocks, and you can look forward to them being featured in game too! We hope you, and our backers, are satisfied with the results!

Part 6 – Background Art & Applications Update

Finally, to close off the update, we wanted to let everyone know that we’ve closed our Background Artist and Animation Studio applications! Thank you to everyone who applied! We are happy to report that, as of now, we’ve hired a new background artist to assist our background departments – Kyun! Check out his first officially completed background art below, alongside another newly completed background art by Monacodingo:



Some of you may remember seeing the 3D Renders of the above backgrounds made by Micman in our last update – we’re happy to show off the completed versions above, made by our Background Artists!

Closing Word

That’s all for this Jock Studio Development Update, but we hope that everyone enjoyed these exciting previews! We wanted to let everyone know that, due to some scheduled team absences, our next development update will be in Late April 2024, so please stay tuned!


Until next time, if you haven’t yet, please check out our update last week, containing a new patch for Camp Buddy: Scoutmaster Season!

the creators said that some do and these designs are just what they put on after waking up :3

cool, would love to see that

 

[Yaoi_lover96]

Is it possible to have this full version an android to play in the future ,since they have the demo version in adnroid right ?

 

[munopop]

Voice Love on Air

New game, let's try it for the trial.

The game is of good quality, even though it's a tester. Really open 13-14 March, just a few more days.

jock studio should definitely do this next year for the sound..this is a new company but the game quality should be comparable to camp buddy.

Yes, in Steam try downloading the tester and try playing.
Really good quality

 

[munopop]

reminds me of seiyuu danshi

Let's try it first to see if it's good or not, but for me it's actually quite good.

Steam and the tester..13-14 actually came this month.

As for seiyuu danshi, I probably won't be able to play it with sound...because it's been a long time and a lot of new games have appeared.

yes, Ill probably download it when it released here, but not sure since the dev is taiwanese and they usually use engine that unusable in my pc I have a high possibility to be unable to play it

With the Campus Map Interface update, my fingers are crossed for multiple Ace masturbation options

Fellow Olympians, it’s been almost two months since our last Jock Studio Development Update, and we want to thank everyone for their patience! We have a lot of exciting news and teasers to share, and we think everyone will be very excited by what we’ve been doing! Please read the following post for full details, as it contains information for all fans of Jock Studio!

Pledgemanager Closing Soon – Last Chance to Pledge!

First up, before we get into our Development Diary, we wanted to inform everyone about some exciting news – we are almost ready to begin physical merchandise production for everyone who is entitled to physical rewards as part of our Kickstarter Campaign!


As part of this, in order to know the final amount of goods we need to manufacture, we will be closing all physical merchandise reward orders in PledgeManager on July 1st, 2024, at Midnight EDT! That means you have just over two months left to either fill out your pledge information or become a late backer, so please, if you haven’t yet, make sure and do so right away, Olympians!



Most of this merchandise will not be available in the foreseeable future outside of this opportunity, so if you’re on the fence about any of it, please consider purchasing it now! Additionally, if you’d like to see any of the designs to help make a decision, you can check all of them out on our website, at the link below:

Make sure and take advantage of this last chance for bonus rewards, Olympians!

Development Diary 7 – Oracle Phone Apps, Background Art, and Animation Preview!



Next up, we’re going straight into our seventh development diary, with detailed reports on what the team has been up to since our last update in early March!

Part 1 – Jock Studio Budget Report

To kick off this Development Diary, we wanted to give everyone a quick report on our budget – as you all know, we were blown away by the amount of support that you all showed us during the Kickstarter campaign, blowing past our original funding goal by more than ten times the amount we had originally requested. Since then, we’ve also seen extremely generous support from our backers through PledgeManager, which gave plenty of people who missed the chance to pledge during the campaign the opportunity to buy exciting merchandise, the Jock Studio game, and more!


Now, it’s been about a year and a half since we began developing Jock Studio, starting with the first demo and Kickstarter, and continuing up through now with all of the new and exciting features, art and more, some of which will be previewed below! As of the time of writing, we have spent about 1/3 of our Kickstarter budget developing Jock Studio, and are doing our best to continue budgeting out towards the future to account for all other Jock Studio expenses. Even now, we can tell that we will be likely spending even more than our Kickstarter earnings to develop Jock Studio in full, so we again want to thank everyone for their continued support, as any purchases made from BLits or PledgeManager helps us to make sure Jock Studio is the best BL game on the market when it arrives!

That’s all for our budget update, but you can expect more information like this in future updates! Thank you again for your support, and let’s dive into the fun stuff!

Part 2 – Oracle Phone Apps

Last update, we introduced everyone to the Oracle smartphone, as well as IO, your interactive oracle assistant! At that time, we mentioned that there would be quite a few apps on your phone to help guide you through the game, and today we’re ready to show you some of them!

However, we thought it’d be best to let someone even more familiar with them than us show off what’s new, so we’ll let IO, with his fresh sprite artwork sketch, do the explanation! You can see the fully compiled video below, but if you prefer to see it in parts, the individual app videos are below, too!

You must be registered to see the links

The Health App showcases Ace’s Energy, Hunger and Status Conditions, as well as his Stat growth throughout the game!

The Contacts App shows you basic information about everyone Ace has met around the campus as well as his affection level with them, and their individual stats. Over time, more information, such as likes and dislikes, will be added to the app as Ace gets to know the other characters. Finally, handy shortcut buttons take you to the character’s schedules, galleries and more!

Finally, the Academia App allows you to check on Ace’s grades and classes and see how he’s stacking up for the semester – make sure to pay attention to your GPA, attend your classes, and take the time to study or Ace could find himself in a pinch!


As you can see, there’s lots of detail in each of these apps, and plenty to explore as you play Jock Studio! The Health, Contacts and Academia apps are just the first of many, and we’ll have more IO-led showcases in the future, so please stay tuned!

Part 3 – New Background Artist, Campus Map Renders & New Locations!

Next up, we’re excited to announce that our background department has expanded again with a new addition to our concept and 3D rendering team, Sana! Some of you might recall our earlier previews of the Campus Map and all of the buildings included on it. Back then, they were in their pre-rendered state, but with the help of Sana and our background team, we’ve been able to detail them up! Check out the below 3D Concepts of the Aquatic Center, Messhall, and Gymnasium!



These beautiful buildings will be yours to explore when Jock Studio releases, but for now let’s take a close-up look of some of the newly painted backgrounds, completed by Kyun and Monacodingo!



Above, you can see previews of the Outdoor Pool, Entrance Gate, Dionysus God House and Private Lockers – some of these have been previewed in 3D rendered states before, but we’re happy to showcase them in their painted states now!


That’s all for backgrounds this update, but please welcome Sana to the team! There’s also one more preview for this update…

Part 4 – Animation Teaser Preview

Finally, we have one last preview to show everyone, and it’s something our art and animation departments have been hard at work at

What could this new Leo model be used for? Just think of all the possibilities in Jock Studio for this new feature – we have lots to say about it, but that’s for another update. For now, let us know in the comments what you think!

Closing Word

That’s all for now, Olympians, but we hope that everyone enjoyed this development preview for Jock Studio! We’ve been hard at work the last two months, and there’s much more to show, but we’ll hold the rest of it for a later update!

Speaking of, our next update will be in late May, so please stay tuned until then! In the meantime, don’t forget to check out PledgeManager before time is up!

Thank you again as always for your support, Olympians!

Lots of love,
