Hilarious side story, JustXThings.

Glad to hear you have your PC again, very much looking forward to the continuation of the Theater!
Thank you for your work.
Thanks ! To be honest a sailor moon joke is not something that appeals too many people =D But I couldn't help it. Things of having friends over forty which still go to conventions dressed like that... without the butt-plug of course. Or maybe with, who knows. It wouldn't surprise me one bit.

Well... it is been more than one month since the last development status report. Let's get into the monthly report. This is going to be a very lengthy and somewhat pointless report. But I think that it is important that I am transparent about the state of affairs and you can take it as some sort of "developer's journal".

I say pointless, because it is a bit disheartening doing this journal, since I won't be talking about The Theater much. But well, I started this other story and I have gone through some sort of "five stages of grief" while doing it. We'll get that in a moment.

Let's start with some warm-up. So, there I am at the end of July, ready to take a plane direction XYZ. The previous night I almost finished with the 0.2.alpha, but I am still missing some renders which I consider important. So I take my old 'gaming' laptop with me (RTX 2050) thinking that I will be able to finish what's missing in timely fashion and release w/o issues. The idea is to release and go "cold" until I am back home in October, since the Theater characters are pretty heavy and the 4GB of the card very limiting.

I manage to release after lots of issues. Hilariously slow internet connection (200kb/s) and somewhat unexpected electricity cuts (imagine spending over 2 hours in uploading the 4 GB of 0.2.alpha and then BAM ! electricity booms !). I even did some renders with CPU... crazy stuff. Sometimes I felt like Ulysses during his Odissey. Hardship after hardship.

Anyway, I manage to release and then reading some comments I realize that people missed Paula. Damn, even I missed her. What's even worse, I am not going to do anything until October. People deserve some Paula ! So, I include the last Mr. Smith event which defines which route Paula is going to follow from now on (either full submission, or a more forceful hate route) which by the way I think it turned out a pretty cool event. I even made an asset. The razor in the box is 100% mine (textures apart). Luckily, Paula is not as heavy as Rebeca and Agnes since I found a hair that made her look exactly how I imagined and I could scrap her previous version with three ! hairs.

We are now around the third week of August. The Theater of Sinners gets its 0.2.final release. I open a second beer and smile. Around the fourth beer I am looking at one ventilator spinning on the ceiling at 2am and it hits me... what am I going to do until mid October ? I could download other people's games and check their code, see how they do all those amazing eye candy effects. Freaking attractive notifications, cool menus and so on. I shake my head. No way, that is fucking boring. Let's make a short story with a simpler model, not many morphs, close ups, simplistic scenarios, tons of depth of field and degraded textures.

That brings me to... The five stages

1. Enthusiasm

I have all these crazy ideas about scenes which I cannot fit in the Theater. So, it is not difficult to find a theme. I sit for a while modelling the character of Clara. I say to myself, let's make it a bit of a challenge. Let's try some incest. I write a very high level version of the script and think. Not bad, not bad at all.

I start working pretty happily. I like it overall. Everything is going great. I expect around 200 hundred renders and a somewhat completed event/story. Nothing too fancy, but hot.

2. Hitting the wall

After quite a bit of development I notice that nothing makes any sense. The script which I thought was good doesn't hold, the transitions are crap. The overall story makes zero sense. Moreover I am doing a bit of "vanilla", together with incest and it is not a theme I am that good at. What the fuck am I doing ?

3. Regret and procrastination

I know I should sit and re-think the idea. Make it better. But I cannot come to think anything other than why the heck am I doing this shitty short story when what I really want to do is more Theater. So, I procrastinate. I have a revelation about Olivia. I write it down. I also think about how exactly is the season one of The Theater finishing from a scene perspective. I hardly manage to sit and do some renders for the short story.

4. Motivation and re-enthusiasm

I finally sit down and re-think the short story. I re-plan the feelings of the characters, the transition from one point on the story to the next one. How things are related, etc. Moreover, I include a LOT of back story for The Theater. That motivates me quite a bit. Now I suddenly want to do all this scenes because they have a meaning. Everything starts making sense.

The vanilla, the incest are not looking that weird anymore... it is starting to look actually good. It doesn't make full sense, but it is a porn short story. Of course it will have some licenses.

5. Greed

Here is where I am now. The last stage. The short story has overgrown itself and turned into some small project. I am actually starting to like the characters. I want to finish it on a high note, I don't want to feel any regrets. Releasing something I am not satisfied with. So I give me a grace time until the end of October to finish this project. The idea was to arrive back home, have the short story ready, release it and go back to my beloved Agnes. But I am greedy, I want to make this one work. So that when I release, I can have a cold one and smile.


----

Well. I hope I didn't bore all of you to death with my rambling. Take it as an insight to a porn developer "creative" process.

To make up for all this nonsense. Some pearls I found in my old render back-up folder...

Second version of Paula (the current one is the fourth). Blue eyes, 3 hair combination.

Yet another one.

Rebeca also went through a lot of changes. Curly hair where ?

c1.meet_olivia.4.2.1.jpg

She and Olivia had a bit more fun the night they met. Which didn't make the cut into the game (yet).

c1.loft.21.jpg

And Agnes... she was not going to be playable at first but I liked the character so much that I gave her the spotlight she deserved, and re-design her to be a bit more flashy.

Last but not least for the upcoming story. Clara having second thoughts about her dress of choice.

And if you made it down here. Thanks for reading.
That is a lot to digest bro. TBH I went through a lot of similar feelings with my Hometown Trap. I had this great idea for a story. But being brand new I let myself go into all kinds of directions and then I became frustrated and angry about what I had done. I found Kimberly and I almost died, not literally. I fought myself back and forth about how to add her...I came up with this great backstory and I was thinking of making two different games. Then I was talked out of it, but the fight didn't stop there. I added her as a secondary character...but it wasn't enough so she became a 2nd MC and it still wasn't enough. I liked her model and her story much much more. So here I am trying to finish Kimberly's Life v0.1.

All I mean by this is I understand what you're going through. Your game is one of the best I have ever seen and I don't want to see you unmotivated. People are going to like one character more than another and that is just how it is. Everyone has a different taste. And I'll even give you my opinion that I like the original Paula more than the one in this post...but that's exactly my point...you have to be happy with what you're doing and it's ok to change your mind or go on a different path. You have a big following and no matter what, a lot of people are going to stand behind you.

I'm not even sure where I was going with this reply. But just keep doing what makes you happy. Take care.

Sounds very similar to what's usually happening in life. 0:)

Thanks for worrying about this game so much, we do as well, but you're the only one with the power. BTW if you would fancy some minor help with coding/rendering/testing/anytechnicalstuff/others feel free to DM me, it would be an honor to participate.

I have to say I strongly prefer current versions of Paula and Becca visage compared to those earlier ones, for Agnes only I believe her older "not trying to impress" look would fit her better. You did a great job of sculpting very attractive and specific characters which are total opposite of porn bimbos that usually come from DAZ artists.

Hey. Thanks for the offer. But The Theater is something that I want to do just by myself. Maybe I DM you for the new short story once I have it ready, since I need some alpha testers for the overall first impressions and last minute changes. It is not as "deep" and "well thought" as this one, it is a porn short story after all, but I wouldn't want to release something really crappy.

great game. Is there a reason for no lesbian tag? I missed it in searches because of that
O_O !! I surely didn't miss one of the most important tags, did I ? (quick check the tags, don't find it... fuck my life... adding it =D)

Probably an oversight from the mods, you can report it.
Sure, sure. An oversight... from the mods... of course (wink, wink).

any news?
Well. Just in case that you weren't following my previous messages. I am currently not working on the Paula & Beca story, but doing some short story due to some HW issues during September. I am "almost" done with the short story. My dead-line was end October but my experiences with previous dead-lines is that it always takes around 1 week extra to go around everything and polish the things I don't like.

Once the short story is done, I'll go back to Paula & Beca. But that means that I won't be releasing anything new here until end of the year (2 months development time). Maybe some QoL things like adding a gallery, re-work the thinking system and the hint system. But an update w/o content is kind of sad.

Fantastic game, one of the best 'new' releases I've played for a while (5ish months old is relatively new, right?) Keep up the good work, and if you ever change your mind about putting up a Substar or something, I'll be there.

Short update.

Clara *** (title TBD) should have been finished by now. But IRL issues kicked in. All family with Corona, first timers. So basically no development since a week ago. It starts looking better now that everyone has gone through the worse part, but still no day care or school for the Brady bunch.

I guess by the end of next week if I can unload all little ones by Monday.

Hi there. Still on the way to the recovery. Seeing that I was tired all the time I just gave up on my planned stuff and took it easy. I can only work at night and going to sleep as early as the kids hasn't help much.

So, I am writing the epilogues of the short story and the bits of the Theater that happen there. It's going to be around 900+ renders in the end. Quite a mini-project. Anyway, are there any particular fetishes that you would like to see in the father-daughter-dirty ending ? It's going to be like 2 or 3 renders centered in a short scene explaining what happens after the main events of the story. It is kind of the "wholesome" ending.

Here the last render I have been working on. Meet Paula's mother. She is supposed to be fourteen but looks a bit older to be fair. By the way... there is NO screened sex with the young lady.

Hmm, for a "dirty" ending one can always default to bestiality, but I don't know if that's your cuppa. Definitely BDSM, but you're already keen on that, and then there's forced prostitution, but that can get dark real quickly.

Holy crap ! Bestiality !?! That degenerated fast !! Bestiality won't appear in this short story. Bestiality is reserved for The Theater... and it won't be the "oh shit... I am forced to fuck a dog !! How humiliating !!" kind which I see way too often.

Is it forced prostitution if she doesn't get paid ? I guess not :? BTW, that is already in.

if the theme is dirty then hows about some rimming?
Mmm... I could include that, yes. Probably in another ending is more fitting. I'll think about it.

Thinking about it, I didn't give enough info. The thing is that the father / daughter "dirty" ending is kind of the vanilla romance happy ending. So it's not that rimming itself is not allowed (she has done worse by that time), but consensual rimming is joyful but not particularly interesting.
