Got some work done on the bath house and inn today, plan is to try and finish those, ease my way into the brothel.
I still got a quest to put together involving breaking into the Circle building (fun!) and then with a few minor touch ups to the city (such as making it more lively) it'll be complete and I can focus on After-city events at the beginning of chapter three.
The current plot tree of added items is sort of as follows:
Isolated Teaching Institute --> Prison --> Escape --> City --> Brothel-related items --> Lanae (and/or potential for Lucien Dominant relationship beginings) --> Waypoint towards Zenith Heights --> End of current version.
about 2/3rds of the city is done, it's just some items that are either incomplete or need some defining/refining to completely add. I want to take a look at the Iris relationship again and try and alter some things (It's hard to portray how the two have a potential to grow closer when I jump through three events and then they're separated). The brothel still has plenty of smut to do, but most of it is going to be generic sex scenes, the only major part of the brothel to do still is finish the guard post side quest, and make a separate quest involving our heroine breaking into the local circle HQ.
On a different and more personal note...
I've thought long and hard on this topic, but I figure if I'm going to be transparent about what's going on with the game, I shouldn't lie to you guys, even if it hurts my reputation/puts a bit of a stigma on the game, it's something I should be honest about.
I'm uhh... Not a college student. Well I will be in about three months, but I'm not currently one. I have every plan to go into mechanical engineering, and hopefully one day work towards a doctorate in particle physics, but I actually just graduated from High School this morning.
I'm actually 19, my age isn't a question of if I began work on it as a minor or not, but I felt like there's a certain... Stigma to begin work on a porn game and still be going to high school. I felt like if folks were aware of this fact, my game wouldn't have been able to pick up because people would have passed it off as "dumb teenage shit" without giving it a try, so I lied a bit about myself to try and give it more weight. I hope you'll all enjoy the game nonetheless for what it is, and I realize a lot of you don't give a fuck about how old I am so long as I'm old enough, but I have a strong moral compass and lying just doesn't sit well with me.
I'm making this game in my spare time for fun (like I've always stated), but lately it's been hard to do so because I have to dedicate a solid few hours to get anything significant done. If I sit in a public area, I risk one of my siblings (two older, two younger) or parent from seeing what I'm working on, but when I work on it in private I seem like a social recluse, so it's quite hard to find time to work on smut. Well that and smut results in serious writer's block.
In any case, here's a link to the most recent bit I've been working on. When I get the "official" version 0.6 out, it'll feature a mega link on top of the other ones for ease of access (I'll still keep a file dropper link though... I -really- like file dropper, even if it only keeps it saved if folks are downloading it.)

Don't worry about it, I imagine most people (myself included) that make these sorts of games started before they were 18, and that goes more hentai artists as well. I know how you feel though, I've made a point of not saying how old I am or that I was in school
ReplyDeleteI don't actually care about that, I think that talent doesn't have an age... you're good, it's difficult for a porn game to grab my attention like this one did, because it grabbed my attention trough the plot that's very interesting
ReplyDeleteAge is mostly irrelevant to talent. And a good game is a good game. Your game is good - your ability to focus and develop as much as you have even at your age indicates very good things about your character.
ReplyDeleteI hope you do pursue a ME degree. A career in engineering has brought me a lot of success and personal fulfillment..... (plus once your out of school being able to say "I'm an engineer" scores you big points with the ladies - even if you are a bit of a geek).
So in summary let the haters hate, but don't sweat it. I look forward to seeing more games from you in the future.
Keep your chin up. You're doing good work, and I appreciate it. People have lives, and you should make your game at your pace. Just keep us posted, even with just a "welp nothing done for now because life".
