What the nonsense dude!
Russia: Nikita (Никита), Nikolay (Николай).
There is no such name as Nika especially unisex! Nika can be used as a shortening of the female Veronika.
Even Niko from GTA was Nik"O" and not Nik"A"!
You are absolutely right. By the way, there are a lot of Russian names in SG. (Sasha, Sonya, Zara, Mila, Nadya)

Katie "Landlady" now :D :(
It probably doesn't happen BUT:
- it's open season for every person in Bella's circle (including her mother) except the only Zane in the school
- Katie seems more interested in meeting Nika and Nami than anything else in the Book Club (and she's the only one other than Noji who isn't thirsty)

After all we don't know what the canonical wiab finale is. maybe there's no Katie and William together so Katie can do some things with Nika.

Sorry for the Log being a day late, but I really wanted to show some specific Bellchen previews and had to wait for the queue to finish.

Regarding the person I was learning Blender with (My friend's real-life GF), that's off the table.

For the eighth time in almost a year, she asked me, "How long it's probably going to take?" I told her for the eighth time that quality is priority number 1 and that it might take her years to learn how to model exceptional environments and assets; I had a serious talk with her about whether that's really what she wants to do.

It's a sacrifice.

After a few days, she said the time investment would not be worth it, and we parted ways.

That's what I meant when I said she doesn't share the same passion. She was primarily concerned about potential earnings, not the craft behind it.

And with that mindset, you'll never reach exceptional quality.

It doesn't change anything. Learning specific parts of Blender together was mostly just an interesting idea, but it was never really needed. It started as a favor as she fled Russia and didn't know what to do now. (She had a background in game design.) but it felt like I was talking to a wall.

There are tons of Blender modeling guys out there, and when the time comes, the quality will reach new levels.

Even tho this reads as bad news, it's not. It's great. I hated managing her and trying to get her to do stuff. (Ffs girl, finish the damn course I bought you before you complain about how much time you supposedly invest.)

So I'm happy that this is history.

More great news.
Late Kids will renew the licenses for Season 2. They will also send me some new, unreleased tracks to listen to, and if I like a song, I'll license it, too.

They also mentioned and thanked you guys for all the great comments you left under their music. I checked the comments afterward, and they were really sweet. Thanks guys! <3

More languages for Season 1:
Soon, S1 will get a German & Spanish translation.

Afterward, a French, Russian, and Portuguese translation will follow.

Season 2
I finally finished the still images for the Cheetos intro scene. There are only a few animations left.

I guess I'm closing in on the 50% mark. Keep in mind that the development only really started in late May.

Before that, 99% of the resources were focused on the 2.2k new renders for Season 1 - Chapter 2.

Now I'm back to the college scenes. I always need to take a breather after creating them, as they are by far the most challenging scenes to do.

There are so many people at all times, but at least I get to work with many different main girls.

Previews (4K attached.)
There haven't been any real Bellchen previews, except the one with her little tongue out.

So... Today we've got some Bellchen.

Checking for any signs of life.

Doctor Games

Me and my tax office just finished the taxes for 2022, which were delayed due to my old, shitty tax office.

I was surprised by the invoice they sent me, but hey, at least I can deduct it as a business expense, right? (Hide the pain.)

What I want to say is that I'm almost done with all the bureaucracy and chaos caused by my old tax office, and this will free up a lot of my mind and time.

This means there will be some new treats soon. I will also continue the "Who wore it better" Treats.

SG has never had one before, but it's two girls wearing the same outfit, and you can vote on who wore it better.

The winner gets a few extra images with the outfit.

I'll do one for the next Dev Log.

I'll see you in two weeks.

Ocean
I don't know how, but Ocean's girlfriend is more logical and reasonable than he is. :HideThePain:

That is, there is a good chance that in the next chapter we will meet Bella’s sister and learn more about their story.
I still think that it's definitely too early, it will be a long time before she trusts him enough to do that, for now it's just crush very strong but still only a crush. Nika will have to save her ass from a very difficult situation to make her start trusting him so much

Ocean's greed knows no bounds. He defaced the game and cut out many of the nudity scenes to make more money. It's not funny, it's sad.:cry:
This is the shit that fries my noodle. Ocean openly chastizes his friend's gf in the devlog for having different priorities than him. For seeking profitability over quality when he is the one who butchered his own VN trying to bend over backwards to publishing platforms and music license holders.

Am I the only one losing my mind at the hipocrisy of those statements?!?!?!? Dude literally went and chased profit and exposure over the quality and integrity of his work.

if I was looking for a job and heard the employer saying

I leave immediately without saying a word, those who have already been to several interviews understand what I'm talking about.
And some are judging Ocean/the friend's gf without being party to:

* Any of the conversations that Ocean had with the friend or the gf

* Without any knowledge of how good a friend this is (many of us have been thru the - hey can you help me out -- good/great friend -- and give my xxx a job ... I know I've been there. Depending on how much you value the friendship, you try to find a way to help while not sabotaging yourself - which, in Ocean's words - he did not sabotage SG by trying to help).

* Without any knowledge of how 'good' a 'game designer' she was supposed to be/how hyped her level of experience was

* Without any knowledge of the gf's actual desires and language skills - how well did she speak German or English for example


There are So many things we don't know and all we have is a short blurb from Ocean saying, in effect, the friend's gf he tried to get to help with Blender did not work out and he has moved on.

It's not like he doxed her or the friend - he shared some frustration about trying to help someone when it did not work out - because RL happens, and Ocean gave us more details than most devs share.

IMO - Ocean has better things to do, like rendering images and animations for SG S2, versus word-smithing a dev log to best represent himself on F95.

Cheers!! :coffee:

Ah, my dear Ocean. I dunno if they're reading this, but in case you are I'll give you and advice you didn't ask for: Don't make the mistake of oversharing. It's always cool to not let your supporters in the dark, but there's a fine line between keeping them informed and maybe sharing information that not only wasn't necessary, but might feel a tad disappointing cause it feels a bit like smearing.

And cheers to everyone, glad to see everyone's alive, kicking and still engaging in interesting arguments :KEK:

Seeing Ayua's getting sexy showing off her areolas in recent renders, we know nothing about where limits might or might not be. We've got one confirmation for WiaB, absolutely nothing for Nika other than theories. If anyone's getting lewded up to grab his eye though, I'd suspect Ocean has plans.

From removing nipple slippage...to adding new scenes of nipple slippage? wtf lol. It better not be an excuse to do a season 2 remaster :ROFLMAO:
