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 translated it to rpy yet. I expect that to take a fairly small amount of time, though.

Since these are boring without pictures, here's a quick prototype of one of the fairies:

I'd maybe post a screenshot of the script, but I think we all know what an office suite looks like by this point.

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
