I mean once the main story is done I wouldn't mind a light-hearted shorter side-story in the original town with Brooke/Angie etc... could be fun. Or they can just move to Berdoo and be part of the main story, either way is fine with me :ROFLMAO:

I'm pretty sure it was mentioned before and OBD confirmed that Brooke and Angie showing up in Berdoo at some point is likely. Might not be until book 2 though.

He needs to put this on Steam. It could sell well as it as now in $10 range and another $10 for chapter 3 &4.

So, made the character guide, you can get it here.
If any of you have ideas, something that I missed, whatever, you can write a DM.

And damn Dima, only you, I think, can make a game, where I found me multiple times thinking, now that should be all of the characters in the game only that in the next few renders comes the next 3 new people through the door.:LOL:

I really like this game. Good story, hot babes, MC not a wimp. The only thing I don't care for (in any game) is the see-saw animations. IMO, 9 out of 10.

Thanks! I'm glad you are enjoying the story thus far.

About animations, are you saying you prefer not to have any at all? If not, how would you animate a repetitive motion?

Not sure he means no animations at all.
Least I hope not as I for one frankly find even sequentiall frozen images with dialogue for a sex scene bore's the tits off me.
If its that used in a game you may as well be looking at a Porno Mag.
I'd guess it sounds more like he's saying your animations are a little too jerky for them ie.(low frame count) in,out,in,out.
And not a smoother gliding in,out motion (which would most likely take twice the time to make, not to mention masivily increase game size and by that download size).
It's either that they mean or fek knows what they mean because I have no problem with your animations at all infact.
They are way way better than some other game's trust me I have seen a lot of the crap out there.

Anymore I won't even check out a game if it doesn't have animations. Even if they are sub-par, it's still better than all static images IMHO. (y)

Like everything else on this adventure, I feel my animation skills have improved over time. I'm doing everything in Daz so I'm somewhat limited by its capabilities. I've tried to use Blender in the past, but the learning curve is higher than my patience. I'd have to stop everything else and focus on learning it to get any good at it. That's not practical.

Early on I'd make a 30-frame loop. Now that I have a better VGA card, 60-100 frames is the range for the ones I make. It makes the animation much smoother. Plus, I'm learning new tricks each update. The animations I purchase are mostly 150 to 200 frames.

Spent the past week proofreading the story, fixing little issues with locational dialogue/dialect that didn't fit right, and the story even without images still invokes heart-wrenching feelings. You've done an amazing job with it Dimitri57

I made sure not to change any lines that had a certain tone set to them, such as Reba's "like' messages since that was the tone of the character. I'm 99.5% happy with the results of my work, there's always more to be done, but I enjoyed doing it.

The hardest part was I could only do it in chunks of 500 lines at a time, which in some updates with over 10K lines, took a while :ROFLMAO:

Forget I said anything about animation. The story, hot babes, and bad-ass Alpha good guys dominate any very minor concerns I have. I'm up to chapter 5 and I am used to the animation style of this masterpiece game.

Also, I have to stop picking EVERY girl to keep but I can't since I don't want to miss out on any of the awesome story.

Keep up the great work man!

A biker basement for his bodacious babes would be better suited to his lifestyle I reckon, complete with a mini-bar

Dude... the basement is for secure motorcycle parking and Mistress Reba's adult "play room" not for actual habitation...
