Development Post - 028 (Patron Only) (Patreon)

Hello again, friends and family... Framily. (I seriously hope none of my family looks at this page, although I'd probably laugh my ass off to their reaction) If you're new, welcome to the dark side. If you've been here, YOU are the bomb.
Before we get into this Development Post, I need to warn everyone that my computer has been having issues booting up as of recently. Might be a faulty PSU, might be something other than a woman rejecting me, you never know. What I do know is that we MAY need some extra time, for two reasons, one of which has already been stated:
Firstly, if my PSU goes out entirely, I have no way of working on this project. I'll try to take some counter measures, but balancing that with real life will be a tad odd.
Secondly, the animations have honestly been more work than I thought. I plan to guarantee that each animation looks smooth, which the FPS of animation in RenPy is a little odd. If I remember correctly I can only make each frame show for a minimum of 0.1 seconds. So 10 FPS, which most movies are about 24 FPS. Maybe I can just use videos, but that would take up a lot of space on your guys' storage and I'd like to avoid that at all costs.
You may notice that Tigress is rather irresponsible in this game. Making deals with criminals and trying to throw the responsibility onto someone else. In my opinion, this ranges from a strong sense of pride, so by avoiding the responsibility of teaching the player, she doesn't have to look like she was involved in any way.
Don't worry though, my Tigress lovers. She will still nag you and get super serious at times. In fact, a lot of my time is dedicated to thinking what they would actually say. Only time will tell if I brought home the bacon, my boyos.
In response to these constant delays... Here is a screenshot of the first step I take into making the sex scenes. Everything is super sketchy, but that's because I don't want to spend 3 hours finishing something that gets entirely cut off by the dialogue box. This scene has been finished for a while now, but if you guys see something you don't like, feel free to tell me and I'll do my best to fix it. You might also notice that the player is just a box, that's because he's always the last thing I add in due to customizations. If I get all the base images done, I can work on the player's base, stripes, colors, and other options for each cutscene which takes a LOT of time.
Anything else to say about this scene? Well, you get a few options. Strip her from the beginning or let her keep her clothes until they become a hindrance. As you can tell, in an anal scene, pants must come off or be pulled down at the least. Another thing I've made apparent is that she said "too", which lets you know he was in her mouth prior to her backdoor assault. As I release more chapters, you'll have more combinations but for now Oral > Anal or Anal > Oral for all combat girls is all I could get into Chapter 2 without us having to wait too long.
I hope these pictures cut it for this week. I know this wait is taking forever, and your patience is appreciated. As one guy, I truly want this project to make it to AT LEAST 20 Chapters, and even then I'd like it to keep going. As it stands, that is where I'm aiming.
