8/8 Status Update

The Femboy Carwyn update comes out on Monday, the 11th. Why Monday instead of the usual Friday I do? IDK, that's what the publisher wants. It gives me a few extra days to make sure everything is in place so I'm okay with it. As usual, the work has expanded to fill the time allotted. Even though I've been done with what was the planned content, I've been changing and adding things to make the experience better. Moving when exactly scenes happen in the story, making new ones, etc to make the progression and timing better, etc.

This is my last planned update for Netoria Tactics. Of course, I've made two updates since the Carwyn Triumphant update was my last planned update, but I'm getting pretty tired of these characters and the story layout of that game. So as far as I'm concerned, this really is the last one. I'll be happy to get to work on Netoria 2 stuff instead. Except Netoria 2 is now a November release apparently. I thought it was October, but November is the better timing it seems. So now I have three whole months to fill, and I thought two was already a lot. I'll start working on Act 2 stuff to make those initial updates faster, but the time is right for... Futa Oasis!

Aw, don't give me that look. Okay, fine, I'll do Naked Ambition instead. I can't bear to see the Princess sad like that. So three months of Naked Ambition! What does that mean? Well I planned to have the system rework done in about 1, which gives another two to get things all the way to the final vote and version .9. Seems pretty achievable to me, so that's my plan. Either late October or late November, the full story of Naked Ambition will be playable. This will be missing the epilogues, which are a pretty big part of the game since they tell you what actually happened to the Princess, but those are going to take a long time to make since every one of them needs its own piece of art and there are a LOT of them.

But still, no more cliffhanger right before the end game crisis! You'll be able to find our if you managed to guide the Princess onto the throne or not. The above art is for the not scenario by the way. It's still a work in progress sprite and missing the background and the bench she's sitting on, but you can see the direction it's going. These are the first sprites made for the game without rotoscoping. Hopefully then don't end up too different stylistically, but I think it's turning out well.

As far as my future plans for Naked Ambition go, I think putting it on Steam as well eventually would be fun. That's a bit far off though, I'm not sure exactly what I would add to make it worth giving money over the free version. I'd like to make it more extensive than the added art and bonus scenes I did for Netoria Tactics 1. That was all pretty slap-dash since I didn't intend for the Steam version of that game to be more than a tip jar. But since that release now was sold about 5,000 units and was picked up by a publisher I should probably put more effort into these things. Naked Ambition has always been a more popular game anyway, and with the big hiatus I want to give fans something really good, not just the free version thrown up on Steam.

That's all for this week. As always, thank you for your continued support.
