Animator is not feeling well, we need a plan B!
Added 2022-09-22 19:01:56 +0000 UTCHello everyone, Corintio here!
The next public release was planned to happen on the first week of October and would have the very first erotic scene in the prologue. This was what we were counting on the most to bring in new players and supporters to our game, but Gurpreet, the animator, has a fever (Might be COVID) and won't be able to work until he gets better. Please send him all the good vibes!! =D
But changes on our schedule are needed since all the audios we have recorded + other things that were done specifically for that scene can't be released because it wouldn't make sense without the animations. I wouldn't have the time to animate everything myself since the way we were distributing the tasks was that he would animate the erotic scenes, and I would animate what happens after the scene.
We still have 9 to 10 days until the planned date of release, and I wanted to ask you, the patrons, what you think about the current state of the demo and what do you think I could work on instead of this cutscene that could improve it even more. Considering what was already done this month: but not released yet:
- Servants kneel down to Kalyskah as she passes, and some ambient dialogues in the temple where NPCs will greet her;
- New portraits on Kalyskah's temple;
- Working on a streamer mode to cover paintings where Kalyskah is naked;
- Improvements in the way enemies handle stamina;
- Improvements in the way we handle flying speeds (as bat swarm or the double jump);
- Added an option on character customisation for changes on Kalyskah's vulva;
- Fixed arrows colliding with invisible walls (thanks DK, for reporting the bug);
- Improvements in the skills UI;
- Improvements in controller support and menu navigations;
- Moving forward, the character customisation will differ between the patron and the free release. I'll get into more details about it in a later post. But for you, nothing will change; Just the free demo that will have fewer options;
- More will be detailed in the changelog!
The Dilemma:
I must admit that every time I look at the game, I want to tweak and improve something, and whatever I see is never enough. So I'm asking you, who played version 0.20, what, other than quests or things that would require voice acting, you think we could improve?
I'll leave three options on the poll:
- Improve RPG (describe): Vote here if you have an idea about what I can improve on the RPG, or if you think I should work on polishments on things I think that could be worth it, trusting my own guts.
- Continue Working on the scene even though it won't be out yet: I would move forward with what's my side of the job on that quest. Since only Gurpreet's part would be left to do, the quest would be done earlier after he's feeling well again.
- Finish Jungle Trouble VN: Vote on this one if you think the current state + what was already added is good enough for the next release and that it's better if I wait until Gurpreet is feeling well so we can move forward with the plan. I would use these days of waiting to finish the Jungle Trouble visual novel and try to release it together with the next RPG public build.
Comments
Whatever form it arrives will be fine with me. The only additions I would add. would be additional transformations and or curses that involve transformation or special actions/results. Most of all, hoping Gurpreet feels better soon.
