Nude Byte Extras: January 2024 (Patreon)

Wow, did I write that title right? 2024? Time flies so fast, and it's no wonder I'm getting impatient with this game's development. It's been more than a year now! (Or two? I lost count)

But, only I can tell if the game is still too early to release, and sadly, it still is. (But it's getting close to the alpha stage. I'm going to look for QA testers soon)

Anyhow, for this month, I'll feature another NPC! Will it be one of the two l***s? Or will it be some sketches like I said last month?

Neither! Instead, we'll have an NPC who breaks the theme of my NPCs!

In Nude Byte, there's a theme for all NPCs: Each of them is a bootleg of an existing character with a trait that's altered.

However, she's not a bootleg. She doesn't even have a name. In fact, she's officially called "Assistant".

Why break the NPC theme, you ask? It's because she's not meant to be interesting. As her name suggests, she's simply an assistant.

Unlike the rest of the NPCs, she only appears in one building, and that's the Tangent Twins Arena building.

Her only role is to ask the player which map the player wants to battle. And that's it.

There's nothing interesting to say about her, really. The two sketches on the lower right were the early designs before I settled with the bunny mask. Her design is meant to look similar to Ciella and Meira but with a different take.

For the other extra stuff I want to share, well.

When I said I'm getting "impatient with this game's development", I meant it. I made so many things for this game and I can't even show the hard work I did in fear of confusion or major changes during the development.

But there are several 3D models I made that I want to show. I still can't show them in their entirety yet, but the closest I can show are their silhouettes:

(Think you can guess who they are or what they're for? I'm sure some can guess at least two of them)

The sad part is that even after the planned initial release of the game, they won't be included yet. They're that far from finished.

What is this "Initial Release" that I'm talking about? You see, what I plan now is to soon release the game while it's still incomplete.

My definition of "incomplete" is:

-Not all NPCs are included.

-Not all buildings are open.

-Not all features are available.

-Not all achievements are achievable.

-No new items for sale.

-Some items even look dumb with sketches, or worse, no artworks.

-The game has no ending. You won't be able to progress at one point until the next major update.

But the game will be fully playable!

The return of Glitch City, money and bits making, buying items, customizing dolls, leveling up dolls, purchasing additional dolls, several buildings available, the new "Prison Office", the new watchable news, the guards, and many more!

But even then, it will surely take me several months before I can finish this "Initial release".

But it's getting there. Part by part, it's becoming complete!

That's all I can share for now. Thank you for reading!
