Character Test 1
Added 2021-05-08 00:56:59 +0000 UTCIf you have not been following my developments in #🚧game-progress on Discord, I have been completely overhauling a lot of the foundation of the game. I have been moving away from Game Creator to more specialized systems that offer more powerful functionality, with the end goal being to turn the game into an actual stealth game rather than the walking simulator it currently is.
This build introduces the new character controller, which is still very much work-in-progress. Rika's movement is now accurately tied with her animation; if she's not physically moving, she won't move. This effect is more noticeable with an analog gamepad, which allows for more precise movement. Stealth is now possible with the ability to crouch, crawl, and sprint.
Under the currently implemented system, I feel the movement to be too fast. I want to go for a slower pace that heightens tension by making repositioning require more commitment. You want to be sure the street is clear! Rika will now walk by default with run (along with sprint) being opt-in. Since movement is tied with the animation, this also means movement in general is drastically reduced.
This build is a stripped down version of the game, much like the city test build. Much of the other mechanics, such as stripping, covering, masturbating, and NPCs are missing. They will be re-added as the system is developed, but I'm interested on your thoughts of the new character controller so far.
Please post your thoughts on the new movement in the comments below or on #📃build-feedback on Discord. Thank you again for your support, and I look forward to reading your feedback again!

I love the idea of her being very slow but i think it would be cute to add some nervousness to her animation. Her sexy walking is nice to see but with her walking that slow it would make sense she is being super sneaky and just trying not to get caught. The sprinting is a good thing to add but I think it should have some sort of draw back, otherwise it would be too easy to use the run too much to avoid getting caught. I like the idea of maybe she creates more noise and attracts more attention, or maybe she just gets out of breath and its harder to keep quiet when she masturbates.
2021-06-01 04:36:57 +0000 UTCHi, the moves are basicaly good. Mouse sensitivity is much greater than in the last free release. The walk could be a little faster. Whlie crawling the radios turning is too much. - Why the character can't make step backward? - I try change pose from stand to crowling on high ground with small space. The characetr is almost in the air. - In scenariio mode "Ged dressed" is not possible dress up underwear if she already has shirt or skirt. Is that was planned? I like this game
2021-05-31 11:16:50 +0000 UTCIt might be best to just remove the sprint button altogether. I think the "jog" option is fast enough. Unless sprint were given some major downsides, like a ton of noise or it wears you out and makes you stay in place to catch your breath.

2021-05-23 14:03:38 +0000 UTCYou can't hold A and look around with the right stick at the same time, can you make sprint clicking in the left stick or left trigger
2021-05-17 10:54:20 +0000 UTCFor whatever reason I don't see the above discord chats, but just wanted to say that you can stand up in places that don't have enough room. This results in clipping into objects, either head into above object or feet into the ground. When doing this under some stairs it would place me on the stairs instead. I don't really use Patreon or Discord that much, so didn't realize I could link them for special permissions.
2021-05-16 14:49:50 +0000 UTCLove the new animations and implementation of the new crouching and crawling functions. The base walk speed feels too slow and the run/sprint do feel like they make you move very fast for the theme of the game. There also seemed to be a change in camera controls that felt a bit awkward to control with this demo (not a fan).

2021-05-13 10:36:10 +0000 UTCI like this new build the most and like the new direction the game is going in I love the new animations. But I did notices that the character would slowly move in the direction of the mouse even when using a gamepad

2021-05-10 04:46:16 +0000 UTCNew patron here! Will the other animations work based on whether she's standing, crouching or crawling too? like dressing/undressing and masturbating? or will those things make her stand up? Also, unrelated note but Idk if there is a better place for it, but it would be nice to have like a short description of each game type. "Exposure" and "Get Dressed" are pretty self explanatory, but I had no clue what I was supposed to do in "locked out" (I thought I had to steal clothes from people's clothes lines or find something to cover with, had no idea there would be the keys to your house somewhere in the neighborhood) until I found a post on itch.io about the update.
