This Week in the Forest! #97 (Patreon)

(Compression's kinda gross... click for full view crispy!)

YO FOLKS~! Hope y'all enjoying your October! We've got the fuckin' >best< weather outside these days! I've been doing my best to squeeze in some out door time when I can.

I've also been getting back into drawing xD I've been slacking SO HARD on that over the past year or so. Not ok! Fortunately I've been able to muster more energy to squeeze in some drawing time here 'n there! Including this lil' Fall image :> I picked up this water color painting program called Rebelle 5? Fuckin' COOL.

I suppose while I'm chattin', I'll start this week's post!

On TFOL side of things, I've been working more on the next animation! Some of it's been tripping me up, so I had to do a lot of going back and cleaning up. There's still a transition that's not looking quite right, so I've gotta get that in a better spot too. 

Other than that I've been working on last month's voted content! It's got some DUDES, and their BOOTYHOLES. It's lookin' super fun :> Before the night is over, I'll post this month's poll for 10$+ peeps, so keep an eye out!

Now a Word from Vixel!

10/10 weekly update:

Happy new week floofs! Made good progress on the Upgrade project last week! I put together a developer room with all the forest critters, and gave Red super speed to help me quickly debug dialogue and triggers.

There are also some new console commands to let me tinker with stuff the game's keeping track of, and to trick the game into thinking I'm walking to the Lake, Central Forest, etc.

The idea is I can more or less play the full game from this dev room to iron out the biggest bugs and repair broken triggers. Then when everything is cleaned up, I'll do another pass with all the critters spawned in their proper scenes to fix cutscene scripting and edge cases. This approach will divide and conquer the work when adding new content in the future, too.

Also got the dialogue box and portraits, interaction UI, and quest icons / magnifying glass all working properly again! Will keep fixing more stuff this week! ^w^

Okidoke! That's it for us!
