Dev Update #294

View attachment 4735502​

I have spent the whole week working on the script for scene 32. I wrote a lot. Way too much. I wrote about 6500 words this week and it is way over what I aimed for this scene. The scene is now almost 10k words long, which is 4k words too many. I'll have to trim it down somehow. I always have trouble editing down my stuff as I'm reticent to cut content out. However, this isn't the first time I have to go down that road. I considered keeping it whole but that wouldn't be wise. I think it's better to remove some content and postpone it to a later scene. As said, I want to aim for 6kish words. Which would require about 200 shots to illustrate it properly.

So 40% of the scene has to go. That's a lot. Most of the scene is in between draft 1 and draft 2 state, which means I also still have some refinement and some rewriting to do. I do think, however, that I can get it done in a couple of days worth of work. With a bit of luck, I can get to cutting the scene by Wednesday and start posing by Thursday.

I also have some work to do on Scene 31, like post-processing and some more coding. I'll see what I do first once I'm fully done with the writing.

So... A lot of work ahead, but we are making some good progress.


If you have bought Summer Scent on Steam, the game is in dire need of positive reviews. Please, consider writing one! Thank you!


The quick sum up :

• Day 6 Part 6 will contain 3 new scenes: scenes 30, 31, and 32.
• Day 6 Part 6 will contain 1 reworked scene: Day 2, scene 3.
• Day 6 scene 30 is fully written, posed, rendered, and proofread. Post-processing and coding stage #2 is almost done.
• Day 6 scene 31 is fully written and posed. Rendering is ongoing.
• 21 501 words of new content so far.
• 335 shots are planned, 335 are posed, 335 are rendered.
• 5 animations have been posed. 330 / 330 frames rendered, 120 post-processed.
• I'm currently writing Scene 32.

Removing the written text is always difficult. We would like the nearest update to be as long as possible. But also not talked. I prefer more graphics. And we are waiting for the results. Impatiently.

does this game dont have any sounds? especially no sound effect for lewd scenes. except for the music, that for me also only occurs sometimes, most of the time the game has zero sound.

Having any sound at all is already more then 90% of the games on here. But yeah, this game does not have a lot. Personally I always turn it off.

Use AI text to speech trained on mentally retarded persons to get the appropriate dialogue voiceovers.

i remember this game having Femdom path , when the girl deny sex and peg the MC , did it evolve into other paths ? chastity or its just pegging and foot ?

Use old-school Microsoft-Mary for that all round sensual tone

 

[GibboBtw]

Does anybody know any other games that have a "you done fucked up" path/s like this one? (with the Dumb Hero, Psychotic Knight or Evil Asshole)

playing through some of them is genuinely so interesting seeing how completely fucked and or depressing the story can get.

I wonder why some games dont have them, I mean it should be not so hard to use some sound effects, even just the same lets say moaning sounds for all different girls is better than nothing. But anyways thanks for the info.

Yea no thanks Actually Im totally fine with reading, I just miss sound effects for the fun parts haha.

If i understand correctly, the dev said that he won't continue the real fucked up plot lines in this game. Sad days.

Because licenses for music and sounds are really expensive. Devs with a small budget and not much Patrons pit their money into graphics. If people want more sounds and music, give devs money instead of stealing their work.

Depends on how long its been since you saw it, broadly speaking thats about it. There are 2ish paths were the mc is domed one is where you mostly ignore eve and get domed by cassie. The other you get domed by cassie and make eve submit hard to you, this eventually evolves into a path where both dom you and it has unique scenes from the first path.

Ah that is a shame, playing some of them was really kinda wild. Especially the Evil Asshole one, making every wrong choice, becoming an abosulutely deluded mfer and then a complete piece of shit who could plot doing what you do, was interesting to say the least

And then after all of it, after all you've done, your sister is still trying to get you help. Really drove home that she deeply cares about you and always has. And that you are a fucking asshole piece of shit for even thinking differently...

Usually playing the game I identify a little with MC. That's why being a loser and an asshole never interested me. The abandonment of these threads has changed nothing in the game for me.

Oh I’m exactly the same, and if this game was entirely built around the EA path or something, I would have never tried it to begin with.

It was just curiosity that got me to give it a go when I was done trying all the normal paths. Seeing one labeled “Evil Asshole” really just got me thinking… “well how much of an EVIL ASSHOLE are we talking here…”

And fuck me, you are a mfer and a half

It was like watching a car crash, interesting, but also very disturbing… and for sure not what I would prefer to play regularly.

I just view it as some awful nightmare. But an interesting one that I wouldn’t mind seeing expanded upon if the dev wanted too.

I thought the issue was simply that those paths were just ending -- like the story for them was coming to an end.

Apparently they were somehow ended. I didn't play any of them so I can't confirm it.

Oh really? I mean for music I'm 100% sure there are copyright free music around and I thought there are at least a few free to use assets for some generic sounds like moaning. But yeah fair enough. Actually if I like a game I buy it, but there are a lot of games I just try out and dont like and not everyone has an official demo

There is lots of royalty free music. But the sad thing is, a lot of those people don't like them being used in porn games.

A lot of devs have a hard time finding music/sounds that fit their game as well.

 

[Tremonia]

Oh really?

Yes, really.

I mean for music I'm 100% sure there are copyright free music around and I thought there are at least a few free to use assets for some generic sounds like moaning.

Copyright free isn't the same as free to use and especially not the same as free to use in a commercial product. Face the fact, for many games here the sounds and music are the biggest part of the costs in development. Especially when you're trying to sell your game on Steam like the Naughty Captain with Summer Scent did.

Sure, there're games where the devs don't give a flying duck about licenses. But when the dev isn't living in a country where law enforcement don't care about such things, it's not really worth the risk.

is there a harem path?
