Progress report and teasers (Patreon)

Salutations! Here’s what’s going on:
Last week we’ve been crunching (working harder than usual) to finally finish the rework. Our “plan B” was to release a teaser with one of the prison events, but I was poisoned, presumably by a can of an incredibly alluring liquid cheese. I’m alright now, and since there were no posts last week - I will put two teasers in this one, plus there should be two polls already up.
We’ve been trying to think of everything that might happen to Kira, both physically and mentally, in order to never do anything like this again. I’m extremely tired of this rework, but we can’t abandon it, especially now, when it’s almost ready.
I think we did all we could, our systems should support everything moving forward, which means that this wasn’t for nothing, we’ll be able to “call” what we need and move forward doing what we like the most - our quests and events, without worrying about older content.
While Moana is still busy with wrapping things up, I am going through the game and adding extra pictures and/or dialogues, redrawing existing stuff and generally improving the game even further (I’ll show you the examples in this post).
Everything will be optional, and everything exists separately, so you can have any combination.
I already did a similar “gif” a while ago. This one is final, I’ve already changed her hair a little, but apart from that, stuff you see now - is already in the game. We will be able to add more physical changes as easily as any other event, so there’s already a poll about her next tattoo. Each month something “physical” will be added, and most of it is already drawn in advance.
Some stuff is not yet drawn, I intend to finish drawing it after the rework (three more breast sizes, etc.), because we don’t need everything to be drawn right now, we just need numbers for the code. This system will greatly ease our work, save our time and, because of it, your saves will always work.
There’s 123 pictures (so far) just for Kira’s naked body, including new breast sizes, lips, hair and more. Again, everything will be optional. This number will continue to grow with every new expression or hand movement.
That said, her “naked” body will remain the same. By which I mean, that her "nude body" will always have 3 hip sizes, 10 (including the fake one) breast sizes, 8 piersings and 22 tattoos (we’ll decide what they will look like in future polls).
Her outfits have 14+ pictures each (1 layer - behind her body, 10 for her top and 3 for her bottom), so yes, this was a chore, and I’m glad that it will be over soon.
Because our game is now coded the right way and the art is layered, we can combine events more easily. Previously I would have to create separate pictures for something like this, which would unnecessarily increase the size of the game, and would be simply put “not worth it”. However, with this rework we will be able to just “call” Kira’s and Katya’s pictures and merge them together.
This teaser is deliberately “not” complete, just to be a bit different from the in-game art. Kira is a bit less “thicc” in this event and both of them have bondage (as they previously did).
After the rework, the prison will be separated from “new you”, they were tied together because we were struggling with layers in the first place. This opens up new doors for me.
The text will more or less remain the same, but this is what you will be able to see if Kira was Hypnotised at “New You”.
Again, we now have layers, so I can do pretty much anything with Kira’s art, her internal dialogues will have their own art, and ‘Red Kira” got some art as well (If you’ll choose to beat the inmates). I assume most of you will skip this scene, so it’s a perfect teaser.
(It might look a bit different in the actual game)
I think it’s the first time I’m drawing blood in “defenestration”, I hope it’s not too gory. Moving forward “Red Kira” options will have art all over the game.
Thankfully we’re at the finish line, we just need more time to polish things. Meanwhile, all of my future posts will have teasers, up until the game will be out, I’ll post every week and I’ll attempt to stay away from liquid cheese.
Thank you for your patience and support!
