D:BB - I told you that I would show an example of how much more complicated these zones will be to make versus the simple halls of C:I.  So, here are 6 examples I rendered myself for the first zone, Mount Hood.  The entire level has 35 areas that you can explore.  I worked for days on these trying to make them flow together and match up to the map grid I showed off a while back.  I have totally finished rendering everything for Chapter 2 (I think) for both Brone and Abby.  I have spent all of today photoshoping and getting Brone's Chap 2 graphics finalized, and just finished doing that.

Tomorrow, I will set to work making all of Abby's scenes, cleaning up the renders, and getting them in order.  That means starting next week I can do all the writing.  I am looking to still be on track to have this to my $30+ patrons by the end of the month and start the trickle down.  I may need to tweak fights and add a few other things in during January, but then the fighting system and map systems will be up and running, and it means future chapters should be much easier to produce.  (And, I'll probably use something similar to this in Giggle Night, though OSAS will probably work more like CoC did).


F:CoC - Blank talked to me about this and we are working with a friend to try and get some 3D assets to work in the game.  Right now, going from Daz to Unity, does some weird things, but I think we can get it right.  Have a few 3D assets will probably make it pop more!


General News - I need to learn to not take things personally.  Many of you know that I moderate on Hypnopics, and you have probably seen it when people are jerks to me or blame me for, well, moderating.  I am autistic and no saint, so I am sure I can make mistakes, though Tera has not come to me about anything.  However, it's kind of wearing on me, and I am thinking about maybe just letting someone else moderate the MC Games forum.  Being an emotional punching bag for people is getting old.

I lost a patron yesterday over a moderation decision.  They did not even come and discuss it with me, just left me a rather sad and sour exit survey.  It kept me up all night, that someone that once was a HUGE fan, now hates me.  I did not see it coming or even know they were upset at me.  I feel bad every time someone unpatrons me, but it still is twisting my heart.  How can someone I never met in real life or the anonymous people on the Hypnopics forum that get mad me, have such an effect on me?  I must really, truly, and deeply care.  Oh well, anyway, as always please give me feedback or feel free to ask me any questions!

Moderating's tough. You tell people what they already know and don't want to hear. I wouldn't take it too much to heart.

You know, after talking with someone about it, I just realized that I have really done a lot for the community. I have seriously invested thousands of dollars (I used to give Hypnopics $600 a year when I had my good job to keep it running through it's financially hard times), I created that YouTube channel to interview creators in our community, and then with all these FREE hours and hours of entertainment that take me thousands of my own hours to make... I do huge amounts of good for the community, and if they or anyone else gets upset over something minuscule and silly, I should just focus on the good and let the others go and not let it bother me.

I recently became a (small) patreon because I liked your work, style AND the way you interact with your audience. I asked a small questions on the forum and I got very detailed and personal replies. I was really amazed by the time and style you interact with the community. Don’t let some people’s negativity get you down. Sometimes people are dissatisfied with other things in their lives and are therefore more harsh on others. Your an awesome artist. Have a great holiday season and thank you for all your hard work and the sharing of your passion.
