New Features for 0.6

Added 2018-04-29 18:30:58 +0000 UTC

Greetings!

I hope everyone had a good weekend, and I hope everyone enjoyed 0.5! It doesn’t look as though 0.5.1 has any horrible bugs, so I’m getting to work on 0.6. The dungeon is going to be the big event of 0.6, but I’m thinking about how I can gradually integrate new features I’ve been thinking about. I don’t have a huge preference for which one I’m going to implement first, so I figured I’d let you guys decide!

First, a brief explanation of the features I’m thinking about:

Recollection room: This would let you revisit H-scenes you’ve already viewed before. I imagine I’d probably have it accessible in-game via some object.

View avatar: This would allow you to view an image of party members, mostly to see what they’re wearing. It would probably be accessible through the equip menu or something (this one was a request from a patron).

Transmog: Short for transmogrification, this is a feature of WoW that probably makes sense here, since some people will probably be into customizing the PC’s appearance. It allows you to make one outfit look like another outfit. This is useful, because in WoW (and in this game) it usually only makes sense to wear the ‘best’ set of equipment you own, since it controls how powerful your character is. You might not like the look of it, though, so transmog lets you change its appearance to look like anything you currently own.

Note that each H-scene may have a ‘canonical’ outfit - it would be a ton of work to do renders covering every possible outfit variation. I’d like to be able to, and I recognize that it may impact immersion a little, but it’s a big time investment, and I’m not sure it’s a wise use of development time.

So let me know, which feature would you rather see implemented first - probably in 0.6?

Thank you for your support!

P.S. - I still need to do a little work, but I’m going to try really hard to have the picture pack out tomorrow!
