Hello,

Quick and to the point so I can go back to work.

Usually, I only handle tax stuff and other shitty things like that on Sunday, but I wanna be done with the update so I work today.

I rendered about 320 renders in the past 10 days, some of them are the same render with just the texture being different.

With everything that’s happening to the adult industry: from Steam apparently not allowing early access adult games anymore to the state of Michigan proposing a bill that would ban porn, or anything deemed immoral entirely, I’m gently preparing for a potential worst case.

Sure, those preparations add a bit of render time, but it’s manageable.

I hope, I’ll never need them.

About 260 were new renders and that puts us at around 7890 stills.
Almost 8000, yo.

I’ve also coded the main menu and part of the gallery.

There are still some screens left, but I should be fully done with the main menu and the structure of all additional submenus in the next two weeks.

I also think it will be a little more than 8000 stills… More like 8200 stills.

Steam & USK.
In the last log, I mentioned that Steam will review SG S1 again to determine if it’s suitable to be classified as a non-adult game. It’s currently rated as a weird in-between mix.

It took them about 15 days to get back to me and I think they have reviewed the game and were fine with it (?)
Someone from the escalated legal team contacted me for all the USK documents again, and they are currently reviewing them.
I should get an answer next week and hopefully, even Merkel can then get a copy on Steam.

Previews: 4K attached
If not bean, why bean shaped?

Besides rendering, I’m hard-focused on coding all of the necessary menus and features for the release.

I’ll see you in two weeks.

Beanpole...

... alas, another innocent victim of the Small-Tits Vaccine that has ravished the female population of Wollust since Ch 3.

I like her looks-wise. Still, much more realistic than the tunned-up version of Mila

To be fair she's arguably the only one who needed it. She looks healthier in that render.

I can't say they are small .... Zero renders without a tilted horizon

 

[RNasc4444]

True. I meant she's one of the few that could use being a little "inflated".

I like Eva's model a lot and I love skinny/lean body types. But she'd be stunning with a little more weight. And a little less mean girl attitude.

Bullying can be effective sometimes.

Ocean does has his issue with size but Beanpole much like Nami, can't get big, what we see here is more likely a distortion due clothing and/or others factors. As RNasc4444 has said she seems a little more healthier, could be a point as we all know that in Wollust phycical change can happen over nigth.

That would kill the character for me, half of the fun is her mean girl attitude. In another game the MC would "break", here I think a hatefuck would be wonderfull

Maybe beanpole has/had some kind of anorexia or bulimia - in the past or is still enduring it. With this kind of background, inflating her chest size would even work or can become credible... The game is about healing and no one has said, that Nika and Bella are the only ones suffering - for one reason or the other.

Off on a tangent here... Ocean's extreme overuse of the Dutch angle is the definition of styles over substance. It adds next to nothing to the story, but ruins the actual purpose of using such a technique.

The blonde with her back to us.. Either my monitor is busted or it looks like she shat her self at some point.

I still hope that Ocean will start using references for renders. So many iconic photos could be made...

Summer's gone, autumn has begun, I hope we don't have to wait until winter for the update.

Yeh, SG ain't gonna have any 16+ action, that's for certain now.

Also no Wiab devlog or treat set or anything, which is hilarious since SG release ain't coming till December best, January realistic, March worst. Sucks to be you, Wiab fans, it's on hiatus for a half year at least.

I have a feeling Ocean really fucking regrets being involved in adult entertainment now, and would rather exit it entirely for the wider market. He really should just admit it already and move on to making 14+ dating sims.

This is fucked up from Steam, they restrict adult content but they support LGBT or other "woke bullshit", its kinda double standard.

If SG become 14+, it will ruin the entire flow of story, its same as make MC dick will never be hard properly hahahaha

 

[grey_shadow]

Maybe before writing all this nonsense you should have read his biography first?

If you feel there's something in his biography that contradicts my statements, perhaps you could point it out, since I'm not seeing it. And maybe you should also correct his bibliography that shows, for example, him producing multiple non Stormlight Archive books during the 14 years it took to cover the first 5 book arc of the Stormlight Archive?

I stopped playing these kinds of games a long time ago, but with every update of this one I'll come back (I check the page once a month to see if there's an update), the story is fucking amazing

You are absolutely true. That said. Leave the itty bitty titty committee alone, they are só few as it is.

Yeah, I get you. But is not like he is profissional. I do love his work but he is learning as he goes, he is not a profisional writer, coder or visual artist, neither he claims to be, is a angle he likes so he uses it, same as the nipple piercings and such. I expect that SG will change as it goes on and Ocean changes his tastes and learns more. It may not be perfect but personally I find something endering in seeing the evolution of a artist.

I still hope that Ocean will start using references for renders. So many iconic photos could be made...

I do love the idea but I am not sure of its legality. Photography is a form of art with copy rigths and such, don't think one could just redo it on Daz or Blender. I know some devs uses trace on porn for their games though só I don't know. I would not risk it though but is great for inspirarion.

 

[Citymac]

the most recent devlog was posted on summer's gone subreddit and someone asked if Ocean would be more cautious about NSFW content in season 2 on steam. This was Ocean's response:
"
I'm not.

However, if Steam were to take the route of banning adult games (and if Steam does, GOG will likely follow due to pressure from payment processors), I can upload an SFW version to the platforms that ban NSFW.

In this case, everyone will be able to upgrade the sfw version from Steam, etc., to the NSFW version for free. (The upgrade would be available on Discord / my website.

Let's hope it won't happen, tho, because it's not just Steam. EVERY major platform will have to follow it eventually due to payment processor demands.)

I want to make NSFW games, not SFW, so there will be no tuning down."

But he can still transform this!

Try the f95 checker. Simple app that will check and see if the games you play have updates. SO MUCH EASIER then checking the site repeatedly
