An hour ago

Vi is doing the honors this week , with a different look than usual, wonder what it could mean?
Anywho on my end script is finished (except for editing) so there we go, much excitement to be had.
As of today 896 renders finished of the 896 posed. I said I was aiming to hit 800 and switch focus, but decided to aim for an even thousand before I did that.
Animations still in the same place as a result of the above information.
A quick Steam update I have to discuss before I let you go. Despite my efforts I'm still not exactly pleased with where Author is at, and still don't think it's quite ready. I'd been pretty adamant I wanted to release it first on Steam, but at this point it's actually hindering me to wait. So after discussing with some fellow devs I decided that since I'm sitting on a game that's essentially already Steam ready that I'll put Unbroken on Steam first and just get it out of the way. So parts 1-7 aka all current content will be put on Steam as release and then 8-12 or 13 (depending on if I need to extend 12 an extra chapter) will be their own release.
This is currently the best use of my time as the only things I needed to add for the build are things I was working on anyway. Plus I can work on them while things are rendering in the background so two birds one stone, I've always stated that Unbroken is the priority so as a result it's just the smarter option at the moment. So the long requested gallery and more music/sound are being added. As well as that UI overhaul I mentioned a month ago or so. The good news is I already sent the build off to Steam so page is ready and can go up once they approve it. Which clears up a bunch of crap on my plate that I've just sort of been putting off.

So TLDR:

• Unbroken 1-7 on Steam soonish.
• Hoping to release Unbroken part 8 here on Patreon the same week, to make it an extra exciting release.
• That should give me enough time to get the last bits of work I need on the Author finished between Unbroken 8 and 9
  

Alright I think that's all I need to natter on about, appreciate you taking the time to read it.
Thank you as always for the support and I'll see you next week.
Sláinte!

yeaah, that ain't happening with those two. Some other combination maybe, but not this. Els, while not jealous, she is possessive, don't see her being cool with someone else being with them.

It could mean nothing, but on certain paths Els has some of her first possible "interested in girls" points in the last update, all of which involved conversations about Vi.

That aside, I could see something possibly coming of that rivalry. Not any time soon for sure, but maybe later. Of the potential planned throuples (of which there are currently two, but were originally three), Vi+Ines is the most obvious, but after that I have Amrit+Ines and Vi+Els as my guesses.

eh, iirc all of them can get that variable, but according to the dev not all of them will have the option for more than a monogamous relationship, so I wouldn't put much faith in it

True, but I think some consideration is merited when there's additions to it in the most recent updates (as compared to earlier updates, which could be more reflective of dropped paths).

As for actual narrative reasoning, I noticed that Els' reaction to MC being with Vi is a good bit different on paths where you have sex with LIs as soon as possible vs waiting a bit longer. On the second path, Vi actually beats Els to the punch and there's almost a hint of... sisterly admiration for her courage in going for it.

I agree it's not the most likely of combos, but I see the possibility. Especially with the most recent previews hinting they'll be spending more bonding time together (much like Amrit and Ines have been).

I don't suppose there's a way to change the Dialogue box color from white to black, is there? -- It's way too distracting in white.
And yes, I know about the opacity slider, it's not what I'm asking.

well hard way by digging into code and changing it there or getting some mod which changes that (aka some1 else digging into code and changing it), pressing shift+a you can change text font etc.

Do you know what part of the code that would be?

EDIT: Not code. It's textbox.png under game/gui

Hey dev. I found a misspelling if you take feedback:



The grammatically correct phrase is "hear! hear!"

After being confused on more than one occasion by things mentioned in this thread, I got round to firing up my game again and found that I somehow had a corrupt version or something? It was Part7 but only actually went up to Part5 (I think), and some of the game files were different when I downloaded a fresh copy yesterday.

The upshot is I'm playing again from the start as a refresher before I get to my "new" content, and I get treated to stuff like this glorious shot:

i had a question..... will we get more serena content in the future?

Just now

Amrit pulling duty this week, as well as a glimpse of the sexy new gym which is the real star here.

This week hit that 1000 render milestone, and then moved over to animating for a bit. So renders will hold there for a little.

Moved to the first animation of the update, not chronologically, but it's the big puppy of the update so trying to tackle it first, give it the most time to marinate. As mentioned previously it's a long awaited character so need to do it best I can or I'll be beaten round the head and shoulders soundly.

Most of the rest of the work this week has been boring back end things. coding, postwork, the little end of month bits I have to keep up with. Time wise I wasn't able to fit an art stream in this month, so I'll try to sneak an extra one next month.

Not much else this week, just getting all my ducks in a row so we can hit November hard and fast, finishing up customs, special renders and the like.

Thank you as always for the support and I hope your upcoming week is just lovely.

Sláinte!

her hair growth must be quick (apparently needs to shave armpits daily).

Holy hell Amrit looks so hot there

 

[Elduriel]

I think there were some small time-skips before, so not a big deal. Plus she looks hot Could even put on some more muscles like Kana with all the training she does.

sure but that growth is still few months. she doesn't need more muscles.

well we don't know how much time the update will cover, gym is up and running etc that will not be a day or two, so it's plausible. On the muscle stuff I disagree, I wouldn't mind her being a bit more buff... not much though
