? Game Development Update June - Apartment & Boobs ? (Patreon)
Content
Good morning everyone and welcome to this month's update blog, we finished some major steps this month and are quite sure youre gonna like them
But less talking and more showing what happened.
????????????????
But before we start...
Body shape references:
Thank you so much for all your submissions to the survey we put out early last month! Pink has organised them into her reference folder and will be using them as inspiration for the body customization options!
Now onto the development progress!
????????????????
IMPORTANT: This post will include references to our released demo, if you havent played it, you can do so here
Overview of what happened / what you will find here:
- Clothing such as corsets/bras can now alter the body shape.
- We got an apartment environment for Estelle LIT IT UP!
- Navigation and cool little interactive bits have been added to the environment.
- Check out the 180 SBS VR preview of what it looks like so far
????????????????
Character advancements:
The character system now has the ability to constrain the body to garments such as bras, corsets, shoes and so much more! Imagine a corset automatically lifting and squeezing the breasts
we think its pretty cool!
Some of you might have noticed that we already had this in the Companion After Dark demo. It used to take a ton of tweaking to put a single item into the game. With our new system, this can now be done quickly and easily by Pink alone!
Weve also hired a fourth person, a talented rigging artist to assist Pink in finalizing the character rig and animation controls. Expect more in depth character updates soon!
????????????????
A place to call her own:
We purchased a beautiful little apartment for our lovely Estelle (thats what we call our default female character by the way!) to live in while she waits for you to get home from your work overseas.
While its only a start, it has everything she needs to be comfortable and gives us a great launching off point for the environment system. Well be continuously adding new furniture, toy and interaction options as we go.
Eventually, we would like to give you the freedom to decorate your apartment in all sorts of ways!
????????????????
Quality and performance:
Robo has gone to great lengths to ensure the environment both performs and looks great while in-game. Most of the quality settings have been laid out, and there will be a ton of options for tweaking the graphics to match whatever your computer can handle! [Yes, on-board GPUs can play the game]
Note: This is not a pre-rendered environment like in AA2! It is completely 3D rendered in real-time, and will be fully explorable, with character shadowing, dynamic lighting and interactivity!
????????????????
Controls and interaction:
Until the male character is made, youll be able to navigate the apartment using our new first person controller, which smoothly transitions to the character editor when interacting with your lovely waifu and then back to first person when youre done customizing.
This is possible thanks to the new interaction system weve added, which will allow for all kinds of interactivity to be added around the apartment. The possibilities are endless, playing with toys, opening doors, turning things on and off, cooking, getting handsy and so much more!
(The UI of the menu will change over time, when we know what exactly we will be including in the alpha)
[For a more in-depth showcase of the interaction stuff, watch the video linked "here" [You should really watch it]
????????????????
Other naughty things:
One more example of interaction weve added is the possibility to load up your favorite ??????? video (or Youtube ASMR, or whatever else gets you off) on the TV to watch while youre chilling with your waifu or perhaps doing other naughty things ;)
????????????????
Sneak peak:
We know youre hella anxious to get your hands on the first alpha build, and we cant wait either; but until the basic character customization is stable, and has a few hot and steamy sex animations, youll have to hold on for just a little longer.
In the meantime though, weve put together a 180 SBS VR ready video so that you can get acquainted first hand with the new apartment and start feeling at home right now!
360* VR VIDEO

And that is it for now, everything is slowly getting together and becoming more polished each day.
That said, I'll see you all on next week project poll!
