It's the "Just a weekly update" post...

Well that was a bit of a runaway wasn't it? :D

Even with 5 days left I think it's fairly obvious what outfit it'll be for the bonus game this time around. 

So what else? Commissions for the "Thea" tier are out where requested which is good. I confess I feel better for having given this tier a little perk and the time commitment was more than manageable so they didn't hit the production schedule either  - which was even better.

On production, Sarah's Caverns game is done which means I've hit my mark this week. It still needs a bit of tweaking I feel but that's almost all script work. It's not quite as funny as I'd like it to be in places for example and...it's a little bit easy. Now I don't want to make it too difficult ofc nor do I want to turn it into a fighting grind either but at the mo it is a bit of walk in the park. As Sarah says "the best CoC is a hard CoC" and this is the opposite of hard. It might be I need to make it a little less sprawling and beef up the enemies a bit. I'll see. But that's just me being a perfectionist rather than anything else I suspect. Then again I know a lot of you enjoy this little path so I want to get it right for you. I sorta have this golden rule that no matter what path you take I want you to get to the end of the chapter and go "I enjoyed that" y'know?

This week, script tweaks aside, I'm going to tackle VR. This one will be quite animation heavy both gameplay ofc and  ....um....the "other" animations ;) and I need sets for winning and losing. If I can beat this one into submission then the only other heavy animation calls will be for Trisha in the mine and playing pool with Annie and so I'll be half way there in terms of the heavy stuff. I doubt I'll finish VR in a week with the animation loading but they can chug away in the background whilst I then write the Chris domme script.

Oh! Quick discord update. Although I tend to have the forum open to anyone who enjoys my work I'm going to restrict the discord to patrons only. This is largely as it will be run by volunteers rather than myself (after all we all want me to be making a game not playing admin, right?) so to make their job easier I'll restrict membership. Besides it gives the $1 tier a nice little boost on that VFM front I feel.

And that's about it. I'll be quiet the rest of the week as I go into a bit of a "focus mode" so my apologies in advance if there are any delays in responding to messages or comments.

I mean you can see how serious things this week are...


Take care.

I got curious about the book behind the Jaffa Cakes. A better comic book fan would not have experienced the same surprise that I did. When I realized who Bruce Timm is, I felt quite silly. Unsurprisingly, Notty has excellent taste.

I need to keep it manageable. Let's see how we go with little steps first.

"I want you to get to the end of the chapter and go I enjoyed that". Isn't our developer the best around?

O...M...G... are we seeing a photo ... of Notty's ... REAL, actual ... JAFFA CAKES?! So, that's what Jaffa Cakes are? Well, I've had those. They're pretty good.

Triangle Games

That's being looked into.

I think you're missing a trick with Discord if you're having it Patron only. Part of the reasons for doing it in the forum discussion thread was as a way to spread the word and advertise so you get more patrons. If you don't let the unwashed masses in you won't get any benefit in that regard. Maybe to start it's not a bad idea but i think it defeats the purpose.

Are we gonna have tier restricted channels in the Discord server ? That could be nice to talk about mini games among Super Scientists and up without fear of spoiling for example.
