Could be about the Group Sex choice that was back when we met Jack and the question came up about it.Does anyone remember what the potential choice was???

Can't wait for releasing the game ❌Ima be so sad if its pushed to next weekendterrible day to be a gooner
But we are getting animations though. We will see how it turns outSo it's a buildup update anyhow, so better to wait for 0.16
Over the years I have grown to despise animations and I hate when devs obsess over them. Why? 1) They take valuable time away from development that could be used for faster updates with more substance 2) The end result often looks like shit anyway 3) They are in most cases badly optimized if you don't have supercomputer it's a choppy mess or badly loops 4) Developers sometimes get the itch to go back and re-do old scenes with animations before finishing game which means game stalls for 6 months minimum.But we are getting animations though.

Even if they outsource it like they said on Patreon, it’s still going to drag down the main development. You’d have to constantly check in, give feedback, and sink time into it just to make sure it doesn’t end up looking terrible. The sheer amount of work it takes to make a hand-drawn 3 second animation loop look smooth is staggering. With the same resources, they could’ve delivered several unique CGs instead, which I’d much rather have than a looping 3-second gif that’ll be forgotten by the next update.But hey, if it doesn't stall development and looks/plays well I don't mind it, I just have bad experience with animations in this industry in 99% of cases.
I have to imagine it would be live2d animations. Karman's art doesn't lend itself to traditional animation. Though even live2d art has a big overhead to create from the artist's side, since you have to break the piece down into a bunch of small parts that can be puppeted. It is far from a simple or quick process.Even if they outsource it like they said on Patreon, it’s still going to drag down the main development.

Yep especially for hand drawn 2D games! For this game imo the dialogue and the cg itself already is enough I maybe asking too much but some scenes do need another cg or two.Over the years I have grown to despise animations and I hate when devs obsess over them.

Not coming out until Thursday August 28.hero?
Saxxy got sick so he needed to recover. He's doing better nowPushed back again? Don't tell me it's because of animations
Yeah, I was kinda shocked when they decided to start doing animations in their novel. Voice acting would be perfect, there's no urgency to have animations in a 2d novelYeah wouldn't care one cent for damned animations, it's a damned 2D game guys come on, animations work greatly on 3D, anything 2D, animations dont do it well, it's just static movement not smooth, to have a smooth animation it will be too much work to have it worthwhile, unneeded wasted effort on something that will be skipped or aint enjoyed enough. If you want, maybe add animations after the game ends as polishing but dont waste time animating the game, never once were people cheering for animations in 2D games, 3D probably but 2D ? Nah. Continue the game further is better.
I agree. What I think would make sense and would be better, rather than animations, would be to have more variations of the same scene. Like one with Ammies face being more aroused, different hands position, and similar. Animations are way too time and money consuming for this project at this stage.Yeah wouldn't care one cent for damned animations, it's a damned 2D game guys come on, animations work greatly on 3D, anything 2D, animations dont do it well, it's just static movement not smooth, to have a smooth animation it will be too much work to have it worthwhile, unneeded wasted effort on something that will be skipped or aint enjoyed enough.
