Hi all! Sorry I haven't been active on this thread, I was busy with my other game until the update.
Now we are getting underway in working on the Goblin's Pet - I want to add a lot more content, meaningful choices and branches. Also, the writing (especially the early chapters) was originally done in AI, so I will be rewriting them to have a more unique voice, now that I have had a lot more time to practice writing.
The artstyle of the game will be revised to be one central artstyle, instead of a hodgepodge of 2d / 3d. It will be done in AI with the latest techniques. There is just no other way to crank out the amount of content that is required.
However the old artstyle will not disappear, I will include a toggle to still see the old renders.
The writing style will be pared down to be less repetitive, and give the protagonist a more authentic inner voice, which should make the smut and corruption hit harder.
We will still be using posing / Daz3d in the workflow, so we can have complete control of our compositions.
We will publish the workflow for ComfyUI so that anyone can generate images in the specific style, perhaps opening the door for mods etc!
My main goals are:
- To be able to add as much content as we want, expanding the choices
- To make the artstyle less of a distraction, while still keeping the detail of some of the best ones done for 1.0
- To make it easier for people to contribute and maybe even mod, or use the engine themselves (not sure if they'd want to, but in case they do)
- To improve the writing
Also there's a whole mini Goblin's Pet RP community out there now, I'm hoping to eventually help make it easier for people to make stories and their own images in a fantasy setting that's desigend to just basically be a lewd playground
Here's the map of the Goblin's Pet I just finished yesterday!
Here's some of the sample WIP art - people are still helping to refine the workflow, so this is very very early still, but see this as an overall style:
An example of how the original source image can be used to generate one in this consistent style:
Though that was just the first attempt at img2img, we will probably spend another few days perfecting the workflows before really going in and adding the new style.
