8/25 Status Update (Patreon)

The new Netoria update is pretty much ready to go on my end. I'm still waiting on the final art though so once that's delivered the game will go out. Probably next Friday. At the Mountains of Friendship is very close to ready for release, so I'll have time to work on the epilogues next month. I plan to get them out in November at this point. And then after that, I can start seriously working on the next big Naked Ambition update.

I guess I don't really have that much to talk about this week. Most of the stuff I've been doing isn't all that exciting, lots of small boring things for AtMoF. Like adding sound settings, making sure all the scenes have expression changes, bug fixes, etc. There's a lot of this stuff like this I do close to releases and it isn't very glamorous but it has to be done.

For today's preview image, I have something that's not from the game itself, but an animation test I did with an animator as a reference for potential future work. Animation is something I'd like to have included in future games potentially, but it's a pretty expensive process. So here's something just for fun.

If you like it, let me know. It's not the highest quality animation in the world, but it's pretty affordable. I'm not sure where I would use it though, it'd probably have to be a new project I make with this kind of animation in mind. The artstyle of my existing projects aren't designed for easy animating and motion. 

Of course, any new game is pretty far off. I guess AtMoF is technically new, but it definitely isn't to me haha. Over on the Discord I've been talking about my ideas for another Netoria game and that will probably be next up. That would be another side project scale game I'd make after Naked Ambition wraps up. I'm not opposed to making a main project scale Netoria game if timelines and budgets lineup though. But I have no idea what future budgets will look like, hopefully big if AtMoF is a hit!

That's all I've got for this week. I wasn't even sure what I was going to put here because screenshots of the evolution of the settings menu isn't very exciting, but then I got the animation delivered and my post was saved. As always, thank you for your continued support.
