AI Update
A new build! That took longer than I had hoped, but I got the new AI working reasonably. Fair warning, this update is going to be pretty rough and does not include much in the way of new content, b...

It's been over a month of silence!!! I apologize for the delay, the AI system I have been implementing was a LOT more complicated than I anticipated.
The good news is, it is just about ready...
Ally characters in combat!
Getting started on ally combat and navigation behavior. I love the idea of my favorite characters coming on adventures with me, and my systems are clean enough that it has been an easy process so f...
2023-12-03 18:40:15 +0000 UTC View PostProgression Demo!
This one took a while, and does not contain anything too flashy. It DOES however have the groundwork for combat progression. I am really doing my best to find a fun loop for this, so I would love f...
2023-11-25 04:40:13 +0000 UTC View PostHeavy workload
Progression mechanics have been the main focus at this time. The combat and exploration portion of the game need to feel good as a base for all other features. I have added a biome system and a lev...
2023-11-06 15:03:38 +0000 UTC View PostAI full island navigation
Got pathfinding working on the generated wild islands, which means allies and enemies have the potential for much more dynamic and lifelike AI processes.
The next two weeks are going to be a ...

2023-10-14 23:22:33 +0000 UTC View PostUpdate on the past 3 weeks
I realize it has been a bit. I have been in the middle of a relatively intense technical sprint retooling the animation system in preparation for sex scenes, and although it is going very well, it ...
2023-09-25 01:34:31 +0000 UTC View PostThe Dialog grind
I have done everything I can to make tools to make dialog a smooth and quick process to make, but it of course still takes time to get feeling good.
I am in the process of roughing out some a...

So I was planning on releasing the character create demo for y'all to kick around, but creating a character is more fun if you can run around and play.. So I will be releasing a combat demo instead...

After a lot of iterating, I think I have a combat system put together that feels good. It is still pretty rough, but it's got that feel!
I know I am trying to get the character create build r...

The elf-like species (haven't chosen species names yet) was there from the start, but I gave it a good once over and added expressions and patterns so it is fully integrated into character create. ...

I am still working on pushing the body more toward a masculine appearance, but I have a prototype in place now. One penis is available with more on the way!

Spending my development time preparing an early alpha build and preparing the steam page for the game.
The game is still a ways away from a proper releasable build, but when it gets there, pa...
