This week's Update

Well, I did a fair bit this last week. I did two cutscenes and a decent amount of other content. There's still a fair amount left to do before this is beta-test ready.

I'm at the point where you can *technically* play the entire scenario with only one small gap at the very end, though there's no fighting yet. This release is only going to have one of the two paths you can choose between.

People have given some pretty positive comments on the game at various points, and I appreciate it. I will state that *particularly* with the sex scenes this game is very much a work in progress. I'm a writer by training, so I'm used to laying down my material hard and fast, connecting the dots in my story outline and then heavily rewriting and rewriting again. I've had a friend (who wishes to remain anonymous) write some extended sex scenes for characters like the Blacksmith so it's not quite so obviously a brief patch on the content, and which frees me up to keep moving the plot forward. You'll see the sex scenes (and most dialogue/other content) extended and rewritten a few times, but not until the main storyline is completely created.

With my on-paper writing I tend to keep it very much to myself until I've got a third draft going. I'm pretty paranoid about letting people see it. So doing a project like this that's so transparent is... different. But not unpleasant.


In other news I have a new artist working on the project. He's working pro-bono (Aka: For free) and will be doing some in-battle art for the project and other little things which aren't in the core or extras, which is pretty handy. He also did this neat pic, which I think makes a good title screen.







You can take a look at some more of his work here.

I always value artists who want to contribute to the game. If you want to do so, let me know! If aren't a professional and you want to do some fanart or write a fanfic, you should feel free. Even if you make art that won't go into the game, I do love the hell out of it. And if the fanart is very good, I might well just put it in. You can look at my own art to realize I'm far from the best artist in the world, so don't feel afraid to show me your fanart even if you're not a cool professional artist like the ones I hire to do the official art for the game. I love it all.

Thanks for being a fan.

  1. Ah, that's fantastic news about the level of detail in the scenes.

    That's a little bit of a shame about this update only having one of the available two paths, but if I'm fortunate it'll be the path I would have preferred anyway.

    Thanks for the update, and I'll continue hoping for good things.

  5. I certainly love how your game is developing and have a question concerning the cowgirl scenes: Would it be possible to specifically back your project to make both options (Three Individual Scenes & One scene with Three Girls) possible? If so, how much would someone have to back?

  6. 1: I got the message, I'll speak more on it tomorrow.

    2: If you want to pay so both options happen for the cowgirl farm, you'd have to pay for the three girls in one scene scene. I'm a pessimist, so when I initially budgeted I figured that people would choose the more expensive option. It would be $80 specifically marked for the three girls in one scene option.
