Personal update

This post will also probably be the extent to which I talk about this topic. It's intensely personal. But, it's relevant to development progress, and I try to keep things frank and open here. There...

Progress update- Animation code results

Last week I wasn't sure if I could finish the animation update, and was considering scrapping the whole idea to avoid delays. Luckily it ended up going pretty well! I gave myself a couple days to a...

Progress update- Animation and rendering

Been working on the animation code updates I mentioned last time. The biggest update (better frame-by-frame animation) requires changes to the core rendering code for the animations. That means I'v...

Progress update- Back to work, tooling, and prototyping

I have overcome the burnout. Oh god, it was hard. It took a lot of delving into the depths of self-improvement.

Anyway! I'm back to consistent work on the game! Holy crap, my mental capacity ...

Status update!

Don't panic. The tl;dr is that I'm in a short break period to recover, and optimistic about our next steps. There's no game talk in this post either- next time I'll get back to normal progress ...

Progress update- Roadmap to playable versions

Heyo! This week, I'd like to share the development roadmap I've been working on. Basically, it's a set of milestones. Each one is a small playable mechanic or sequence that builds upon the engine's...

Progress update- Prototyping, and the push towards playable

To start with, I've been focusing entirely on p*netration and aiming mechanics the past couple of weeks. "Aiming" gives the player the ability to easily shift from one target to th...

Progress update- stay tuned~

Hey y'all, right now I'm working on the game and house stuff at the same time. The current focus is still prototyping to find the target "flow" for interacting with the game, p*netration, and aimin...

Progress update- prototyping

P*netration prototyping has begun! While a toy is hovering outside the hips area, you can scroll to swap between targets. It's janky at the moment, of course, but the mere fact that it's possible i...

Progress update- engine progress~

I made incremental progress on the engine's functions! Specifically related to p*netration and player interaction. I feel good about them but deeply insecure about the lack of exciting or interesti...

Progress update- victory, and next steps

Progress update- ponies, furries, and finite state machines

Question!

Y'all have thoughts on a gradual shift toward more furry-ish content? It'd be heavily pony-inspired designs, along the lines of Them's Fightin Herds rather than typ...

Progress update- fancy hierarchical state machines

Last week I showed a diagram of the various states needed in the game, and this is a continuation of that. 

The main thing I've managed to do this week is implement that diagram into act...

Progress Update- p*netration motion mechanics

I had a rough week! I'm doing better now, but I delayed making a post just for the sake of my mental health, since it's quite draining to do.

Progress update- victory, and next steps

The bounding box issue is finished now. It's not just technically solved, but thoroughly unraveled and can't hurt us anymore. Last week I'd finally pierced the core issue. This week, I got it worki...
