7/28 - Devlog Update - Planned Changes for Episode 1, Part 3 (v.0.43)
Hey there, just wanted to share with you some of the planned changes I’ve got planned for our next update.
So, for this next version most of the largest changes are coming to Diplomacy and adding a new planet to continue the main mission-line and getting the Android version up and running.
In this next update, we’ll be able to visit Ukka'Kizz, the homeworld of the Gro’n Ska’Li – they’re a race of fierce combatants that place a high emphasis on martial expertise. In this, Linessa can enter their tournament, which is held year-round, an event primarily made for training new martial practitioners both off and on-world.
With the addition of a new world, I’ll be adding a new game over scene, here’s a teaser of some of its artwork:
It’ll function very similarly to the game over scene that’s currently playable in the Kardassimin Prison; and most of the game overs will follow that same playstyle – though the situation that she finds herself in will be different for each world.
Other than that, I’ve got some big changes coming to Diplomacy. I’ll be updating the UI so it looks a lot cleaner. Also, trying to test Diplomacy on mobile’s been a pain – the buttons are just too small!
So, the entire UI is getting a re-work and with that re-work, I’ll be adding in some new animations which I’m pretty excited about! I’ve been working with LawfulSock on getting these animations for different poses – here’s one:
The way I plan on implementing it, is during your turn, while you’re selecting an ability, Linessa’s stance will change to one of a handful of looping animations that relate to the action you’re about to do. The animation above is her deciding which Diplomatic approach she’ll take to convince her enemy – with a lewd variation and default variation animation coming as well.
The UI is also getting an update so it looks like she’s checking out this list of abilities; which should be more prominently displayed during your turn.
Other than that, I’ll be updating some fonts to be more readable, adding a combat log for you to scroll through and implementing the first position to the sex positions system – the handjob position which I’ve teased earlier.
