0.7 Status Update #11
Added 2024-11-16 01:06:27 +0000 UTCGreetings, everyone!
Hope you had a nice week.
This week we've been working on a couple of angles for animations. The renders came out nice and we'd like to shove some animations into the queue next. This update we're most likely going to have more animations than ever before for a couple of scenes. We'll see when we reach them. For 0.7, we currently don't have any SFW animations planned but that might always change. Maybe a quick hotdog animation.
There's certainly an opportunity to go wild when it comes to lewd animations, but we'll try to keep it tight. Sometimes less is better. But then again... maybe sometimes more is even better. ๐ค
We also pushed forward with scripting and fixing some clunky dialogue.

Cassie's outfit preview last week was pretty well received, so here's another one! This time featuring Becca. Disclaimer: this outfit may or may not be in 0.7.
Becca in a bikini. We have a couple of moments requiring a swimsuit planned for her down the line, and this was the option we decided to go with. The renders of Becca have all been portrait sized so far, offering angles decided by her, but this way you'll get a proper view of what you might get to work with. There will be full sized renders of her in the future as well.
We have a couple more of these line-ups in our dusty archives and we might as well share them in an easy format like this.
Weekly summary:
77.5 renders
Camera angle magic
Dress fitting
Scripting
Dialogue editing
Other news
Looks like Patreon changed their formatting once again, especially the dark theme. Sorry dark theme users.
Cheers and have a nice weekend,
Npx & Robison

2024-12-07 00:36:58 +0000 UTCWe've been trying different ways of reporting progress, this time without the bars. They might return, or we might do the overall percentage again. We've been bad at estimating the last phase so we want to get better at that before we do numbers again. :)

2024-11-22 21:45:43 +0000 UTCHaving a release schedule would be perfect, unfortunately we haven't been able to make the content creation that linear yet. Growing the team would be one option of course, especially on the art side, but this would result in a very different look and feel for the game when there are many chefs cooking. It most likely wouldn't be the same game anymore after that.

2024-11-22 16:02:49 +0000 UTCWhat happened to the progress bar?

2024-11-21 23:28:54 +0000 UTCits been like 3 month without a new update and its a shame since the game have a lot of potential. it would be nice if it had a shedulle but idk how big if the team. Maybe it would be unfair to compare it to NLT or Inceton, at least is better than ICSTOR xd

2024-11-20 22:46:53 +0000 UTCThere's no estimate yet. :)
Npx
2024-11-20 08:24:54 +0000 UTCWe have the style selected, and the poll will be to choose the color of the swimsuit. :)

2024-11-20 08:21:02 +0000 UTCwhen will the new version come out?

2024-11-19 17:04:21 +0000 UTCAwesome!! I would love to see another Main Girl in a swimsuit! Bikini hopefully but a one piece can be good too. Miss Hills looked gorgeous in her one piece. ๐ฅฐ When you say you "might poll it" do you mean poll which Main Girl we get to see in a swimsuit or poll what style swimsuit a Main Girl who's already set to go swimming will wear? If we're polling which Main Girl gets a swimsuit, we've seen Miss Hills in a swimsuit and Sophie and Bree in their bikinis already. I'd expect there's a good chance we could vote for either Eve &/or Mia is a swimsuit soon! ๐๐ If I had to pick between Eve and Mia, it's really hard but I guess I would go with Eve just because we had such an EXCELLENT Chapter 6 with Mia spending so much time with her but saw so very little of Eve. So, in Update 7 it would be really fun to spend a lot of time with Eve just like we spent with Mia last time. ๐

2024-11-18 20:06:45 +0000 UTCAh, thatยดs fine for me. I can live with every time zone you choose. The main thing is that I can read news about my favorite game ๐ I see, Rob drunk in a ditch...Now I can imagine who was Miller's role model ๐คฃ The dark theme works on pc for me too.

2024-11-18 10:54:44 +0000 UTCBecca was more of a bonus, we have a main girl swimsuit coming up but we might poll it instead. :)
Npx
2024-11-18 10:54:09 +0000 UTCIf by NPC profiles you mean information about the main girls, like a gallery with details, then yes. :)
Npx
2024-11-18 10:48:41 +0000 UTCThere's a couple of reasons actually! We're used to posting for the US time zones, and not long ago we were asked to post later for Australia. Also when we're both on and Rob isn't drunk in a ditch somewhere. So the times vary a little bit. The dark theme might be unchanged on Mobile, that could explain it! :)
Npx
2024-11-18 10:46:00 +0000 UTCI was wondering which girl would be in a bikini. I hadn't expected it to be Becca. She looks really good in it too. I can't wait till we can see Eve and Mia in bikinis also! ๐ฅฐ๐ฅฐ
Summer Sun
2024-11-18 01:41:21 +0000 UTCWill NPC profiles be added to the game in the future?

2024-11-17 06:44:35 +0000 UTCOk, so I wasn't the only one. It's a good thing I was made aware of it.

2024-11-16 18:52:55 +0000 UTCSweet! A hot busty side girl 180 two weeks in a row! You guys are spoiling us. ๐ฅฐ I'm really glad you're sharing the workbench with us now! ๐
I Love Mia's BOOBS
2024-11-16 16:22:03 +0000 UTCYeah I use dark theme everywhere and not had any issues either. Was waiting for someone else to mention it to see what was going on. I'm on Android though if that makes any difference (I don't do fruity phones!) ๐ค
Vincent Vega
2024-11-16 13:10:38 +0000 UTCYep. Or if she's that self-conscious, maybe even a one piece... *gets slapped by every man in the thread* No, I take it back, definitely the bikini!
Vincent Vega
2024-11-16 13:06:03 +0000 UTCAs Becca is a little bit insecure about the curves, one could assume, she would prefer an all-black bikini set

2024-11-16 10:32:16 +0000 UTCGood morning Robison and Npx, finally weekend and that means: a DevLog of my favorite game wohooo ๐ฅฐ We live in almost the same time zone (it's 8.00am here now), which means you'll be writing your DevLog in the middle of the night. Is there a reason for that? I mean so sleep is nice too, right? ๐ OMG, that's Becca in the header. I had to look twice. I love our main ladies, but I also miss all the great side characters. Glad you chose one of them for the banner today. ๐ฅฐ Oh, ok...there are also a few bikini pictures too...yummy...thanks guys. ๐ฅต It's nice that you prioritize (keyword animations), but stay true to yourselves and do what you want to do for your game, e.g. SFW animations sometimes. Even if they cost time, these little things make a big difference. Feel free to express yourself here. I use the Dark Theme everywhere, but I haven't noticed any problems with Patreon. Give Sophie a kiss from me. She shouldn't be sad, we'll see each other again soon. I wish you and everyone else a nice weekend and stay healthy.

2024-11-16 07:12:12 +0000 UTCOk so first off, that answers the question about who that character is in the banner at the top of this post! It's Becca. I feel bad for forgetting her, slap me now! ๐ I do love her curves though ๐. What I don't love is the bikini. Sorry but I've never been a fan of non matching underwear or bikinis. In fact, it's a bit of a turn off tbh. Just my opinion but either the bottoms should be blue or the top should be black or a different colour but they should match. Thats my two penn'th anyway. What else, Hmmm I agree, more is more and more is always better ๐ Be careful not to overstretch or overwork yourselves though ๐ Other than that what can I say, except I'm excited! And looking forward to the hotdog animation (you know you want to!) and the fire! ๐๐ Have an awesome weekend guys, and thanks again for an awesome devlog
Vincent Vega
2024-11-16 04:54:48 +0000 UTCIโm so excited for 0.7

2024-11-16 03:44:14 +0000 UTCNice Becca header ๐! Nice on the animations update. I'm fine with either less or more lewd animations. Just here to play and continue this amazing game ๐. OMG! That Becca 180 in the bikini ๐คค. Surely, we'll meet these Ember Girls in the game! They are just too memorable ๐ฅฐ. A great update as always! NFG crew... see youโON the next one ๐โ๐ป!
