WIP 3: Videos progress

Don't worry folks, the game hasn't died just yet. The characters are as done as they're going to get and we've been busy putting together and rendering videos for the past couple of weeks, in addition to playing a lot of Stardew Valley on my part.

I'd estimate that, at least by sheer numbers, we're about 40% finished with the 'raw' renders of the videos. There are quite a lot more to go and a bit of post-production to do on all of them, but the project's still chugging along.

Unfortunately, it's taking a lot longer to get these done than I had anticipated. I've been kept plenty busy in Blender without having touched the code at all for weeks now. At this pace, I would be amazed if it wasn't at least mid-February by the time it's all finished.

Oh well. It takes as long as it takes.

WIP 3: Finished and named (Orval Creep n' Hammer)

It took a while, but the game's finally finished. I present to you: Orval Creep n' Hammer . Alright, so I'm not great with names. Believe it or not this is the best iteration that myself and three other people could come up with. Features: Stars four women Multiple animated sex scenes Wood paneling There are currently a couple of known issues, both particular to the GNU/Linux version. Basically, typos that I forgot to correct before uploading the files. Oops. 😢 It's a simple enough game, give it a download and try it out (approx. 700mb).

WIP 3, sex system update

The last week has been fruitful, at least in regards to the quality of the sex scenes in-game. The previous system consisted of a bunch of still frames (jpg) packed into a binary file and forming a very crude type of animation. It worked, but it was slow to load and a brute-force effort at best. I've since updated the system a bit, though, finally figuring out how to successfully play video files with SDL2 in a useful way. After that, it was a matter of tweaking the structure of the bin files that contain the animations (cleverly named 'VID' files, go figure) and re-writing the tools and scripts used to create said files. I also tweaked the in-engine system for handling the scenes to make that a bit less crap, as well. The results are dramatically better and far less resource-intensive (less VRAM used, less disk space for the VID files, etc.). What this means to the end user is that the game will be slightly less obviously shitty, so that's nice. How the in

FGAME, beginnings

FGAME (working title still) is going to be a relatively short game, with only five or six concise 'acts' that take place throughout. As such, I didn't expect to spend very much time building the skeletal structure of the code, or the plot, or the standin character art. As usual, I've underestimated the amount of work that actually goes into creating a fucking game, even a fantastically short one. You'd think I'd know better, but no, it's a lesson that just doesn't seem to stick. Still, some honest-to-god progress has been made. I've learned some of the renpy ropes and have already built the majority of the locations that can be accessed, and the player's means of accessing them. None of the final art of course, which is going to take the longest by far, but... baby steps. I've also finalized the plot structure, events, etc. and started in on the script in a proper fashion. The first 'act' is done, though I haven't
