Progress update: SHF3 (Patreon)
Content
Heyo, progress update time :3
The big feature coming in this next update is oral/deepthroating. I'm psyched to finally be able to put this in the game. It's "working", but I'm not sure if I'll be ready to post it in the next day or two, so I wanted to let y'all know what's up.
The main holdup is the art assets- every character's head and mane need to be drawn and rigged at a new angle. I ended up dropping part of this on my vector artist at the last minute. Gotta learn be more proactive with delegation >.<'
Besides that, I've been working on the low-level game systems, including revamping item movement code and hacking together features that my animation program is missing. Oral provides a lot of challenges to the existing code, because it has somewhat unique interactions with nearly every other feature in the game. That means I've had to expand on almost every part of the codebase.
I'm optimistic about this update! Whether I manage to finish it up by tomorrow, or it takes a few more days than that, I'm pretty confident it'll be worth the time put in. But since Patreon is a monthly model and it's the end of the month, I don't like having nothing to deliver. If I can't finish things up before September starts, I'll post a placeholder link and username/password as usual to make sure current patrons will get access.
Thanks so much to everyone who continues to support me, even during this apocalypse of a year <3
