Minotaur Boss Fight Completed, working on the ero scenes (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone!
I've finally finished work on the boss fight and I've reached a point where I'm satisfied with the results. Seems like boss fights will always take more time to implement as I have to code their unique attack patterns and behaviors from scratch, unlike with the common enemies where I already have a base framework that I can reuse for new ones and then just make minor adjustments to create unique behaviors.
This boss is able to dodge or assume a defensive position as a reaction to Maya's actions, and even counter-attack so he will try to respond accordingly and provide a more involved challenge, but it took some time to figure out a decent balance between making his reactions feel dynamic while not making the fight too hard or obnoxious.
While the gameplay part is fully completed (the boss can be fought, defeated, rematches, etc), I'm now working to finish the the juicy part, that is the ero scenes of this fight, so unfortunately I won't be able to release the new version just yet since I want to deliver the whole package with the ero scenes included.
Speaking of ero scenes, as it is know his tags are vanilla/male and roughplay. When I was discussing and brainstorming ideas with the patron who came up with his concept, some interesting types of scenes where considered, such as having the boss be able to call reinforcements during the fight and then have those enemies participate in the ero scene with the boss, like a group scene.
I've also received some good suggestions from others, notably one idea to have Maya be transformed into a cowgirl (much like for the werewolf boss she becomes a weregirl), but ultimately it was not chosen. But there will be plenty of opportunities for more transformations scenes in the future for new enemies so no worries here.
Finally what was decided is that the boss will have 3 different positions that he will perform with Maya. The twist being that if Maya is defeated in battle, the boss will seamlessly cycle between these 3 scenes non-stop with appropriate transition animations, in a full show of his virility. Suffice to say that given his size difference compared to Maya, fans of belly bulge/inflation will enjoy the display, and one hopes that Maya will have the stamina required to keep up with that intense "love".
That means that there's gonna be a lot of animation frames necessary for this, given that I have to depict not only 3 different smut poses, but also the transition frames moving from one to the other so it will take a bit more time to complete.
It's gonna be a ton of pixels to move but I'm hoping to be able to finish all of them in about two weeks. Well those frames won't make themselves so I'll be going right back to work now to finish them!
Thanks again for your understanding and support!
