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).

OCH update, etc.

I've updated Orval Creep n' Hammer to version 0.95. What's new? Better map icons Cheats (well, just one for now, actually) Tweaked minigame grind Added a way to actually beat the game (lol) Download links (mega.nz): Windows 32-bit Linux 64-bit Check the README or the manual for info on the cheats. I've also been poking at FGAME's script, getting it written piece by piece, though there hasn't been much of note going on otherwise.

OCH - Future plans

While I'm mostly done with Orval Creep n' Hammer, there are a few things I wanted to do with it before entirely moving on to other things.  I've got a short list of things that need to be tweaked, but the big issues are technical in nature. First, I'd like to change the way videos are played.  While the current system works , it's not ideal and given the quality of the videos, the file sizes are just too big.  For what it is, the game just weighs too much, you know? Secondly, the Android port.  While I have technically ported an SDL2 project to Android, it was a bit of a process and the project itself was very, very small in scope.  It was basically just C++ with bits of the SDL2 "standard library".  This game, while not tremendously complex, is quite a bit larger in scope than that earlier "test project," so I'm not sure how all of this would play out in an attempt to port to Android. So what are my options? Option A is to simply do ...
