The first release will just be laying the foundations unfortunately. Rushing to sex this early just ruins the story. But I made sure to include at least one scene with another guy for each shade, and in a way that makes sense storywise. It's probably also the only route where rushing things quick is feasible.

As much as I'd desperately love to get into the real meat of the game ASAP, you're definitely right that taking your time and setting up a good foundation is the better way to do it. Going directly into neighborhood block party pregnant gangbangs in the first 20 minutes would feel a bit abrupt :LOL: I find that the best porn games make you care about the characters even outside of the sex scenes, that way when they do stuff there's a much greater emotional connection. Of course, that takes time. I gather you're of a similar mindset! One good way I've seen certain games handle it (Vulgar Reviere for example) is having scenes of the MC fantasizing before getting into the real action. That way they work with the story while providing a bit more to chew on.


Do you have a planned update schedule or will you be following more of a "it's done when it's done" workflow? For a project of such high quality and with so much choice and complexity, it seems like a massive undertaking, especially if you're making the game alone.

Also, do you plan to open a patreon or some other support method at some point? If the game ends up as good as the previews make it look then it'll be something that I and likely many others would gladly support.

Best of luck! Can't wait to see the initial release!

Any chance for a non-femdom foot focus option down the line? I'm not really into the 'being stepped on' side of it, but having other options for that focus would be fun.

Yes, but just not on the first release unfortunately. Like worshipping Aquamarine's feet while she's still the submissive one is definitely one of my plans.

Nice! I saw the warning in the demo and got a bit worried. It would also be nice to have a more female lead non-femdom option too. Like I can imagine an Azure who's into it for the kink rather than the humiliation/dominance.

Btw, maybe I missed it, but have you announced when you were planning to talk about Cerulean? From the initial post I'm curious what the concept is. (My immediate thought was a PC-obsessive/yandere "I only care about you" type, so I wonder if I was close at all lol)

You can already do that with Azure/Sapphire + Cuckold. Though feet won't be involved until later updates. Im trying to limit my scope a bit.

Hi guys. I have my Patreon set up now. Just sharing here, but no pressure to subscribe!




I've decided the release window will be around July 14 - 18th.
I'll have a more definite date when we get closer.

Before then I'll work non-stop to make sure everything is polished and ready to go.
I will have it released on one of these dates no matter the state of the game, so I hope the first playable version will be fully ready by then!

Cheers!

After seeing the possible routes this is a suggestion for the setting up cheating ntr route it would be nice to organise an affair with the lover she cheats and him sending us videos from their affair sex to watch

Dude, congrats on your new game! The render looks insane. I’m curious, what software did you use to create them? Also, glad to see you back!

If you mean to animate them, I use the puppet warp tool in After Effects for the idle, talking animations and expressions. I'm pretty much moving pins around randomly for every couple frames to give that illusion of breathing. As for things that require heavy movement I use AI start frame > end frame to animate them.

Most of the animated CGs are webms with alpha masking enabled that I layer on top of each other for that transparent video effect.
I'm still in the process of learning Live2D but once I get the hang of it I'm going to pretty much transition everything to there.

As for the actual art I can't get any credit from that most Anim studio CGs that I heavily edit to fit my aestethic.

My regular job is a graphic designer for an advertising agency so I guess you could say I'm pretty good at recycling assets and editing them to fit with what I need. Same with the UI. Don't really have actual UI experience, but I'm assuming designing UI and designing graphics come hand in hand so that's probably why it looks better than even I had expected. Didn't actually think the UI would be a hit to people I was just doing what I know best. Pleasantly surprised and grateful for that.

How much content can we expect on the first release? Is this going to be a blue ball?

NEW UPDATE:


As much as I was pushing for a release, unfortunately I am still unhappy with the current state of the game and want it to live up to most people's expectations given how many have high hopes for it. I am very passionate about this development and I want it to be the best as possible.

So I've decided to postpone the release date for now especially with the growing scope of how I want the first release to look like.

For now, I'm releasing a discord/patreon exclusive Alpha test to squash out some bugs.
More info can be found in my reply in the discord server as the pinned message.

I recommend people who are interested in following the game to join our ! I am very active in there and will happily answer any of your questions!

Don't forget to actually post news or any thoughts on the project along with any information or progress of the game on your Patreon. I find it extremely helpful to get to the relevant information quickly and the current state of a project straight from the devs when checking their respective Patreon pages or Itch.io or any other sites dedicated to them that devs might use. This helps to cut through the clutter when trying to hunt down information that might be buried elsewhere (like on F95 or on Discord) if I don't follow certain threads closely enough or aren't on their Discord or whatever else a dev might use. (I know you recently set it up but it's a little bare right now.) In addition, having more information there will attract more folks as they'll see that the project is alive and well and is being actively worked on as not all interested folks will use F95 or join your Discord. Just something to think about. Looking forward to seeing where your project will go from here. Good luck, zetsupetsu! Cheers!
