Progress Report (Patreon)

Howdy! Here’s what’s up:

Up until the end of the last month I was primarily writing for 0.5, just because I wanted to take a title break from drawing, and last week I finally started working on the “NPC art overhaul”.

Now, I need to both draw and redraw 61 NPC, which is a lot and I’m not sure how much time it would take. Which is why I’ve decided to limit myself with time.

So, the next version (0.4.9.9b) will drop at the end of this month and it will have as many NPCs as I’ll manage to upgrade till then.

Meanwhile, Moana will work on other system stuff, like music for example (her tasklist is rather long).

Above you can see the upgraded version of Liuda, and she is one of the three characters that I consider to be extremely difficult to draw. The other two are “Shwift” (the pole girl) and Nadya (third dorm girl).

They are difficult because I need a rough idea of their faces from all angles, their nude versions, they also have to look hot and I need them “full sized” (with legs).

And I need them to be like that because they are “key” characters, they will have a lot of events - so I outta do my best while making them.

All “difficult” characters are also needed for the polls I’ll create, so I had to start with them. Now, other NPCs don't really need to be nude, full sized and all that, so I’ll definitely spend less time working on them.

I hope that after I finish Nadya and Shwift, I’ll be able to create other folks much quicker, but we’ll see how fast it’ll actually go.

I didn’t think it was possible, but somehow I’ve managed to make her “geisha” outfit look even whorier, so I’ve decided to give her another one - a regular one that she wears at home.

By that I mean that her current “dorm” art will be replaced with this “sporty” version I’ve created and her cyber-whore-geisha look will be used at her job (massage parlor).

For the sake of immersion I think it’s better this way, because why would she want to always be dressed in her “work” clothes?

However, if you disagree and would prefer to see her always dressed like a whore - tell me and I’ll let the democracy decide (conduct another poll).

I also gave her some rather lit tattoos, as the youth says. And while I hope everyone likes them, I know some people really hate tattoos, so I’ll let the poll decide whether or not she should have them.

Now, a bit about her as a character (without spoiling too much):

Liuda works at the “massage” parlor and pretends to be a foreigner to increase her profits, which is why she’s dressed like a geisha and her new tattoos are a part of her act as well.

Her content will be primarily focused on various types of prostitution - brothel, street and escort (luxury dates). In this storyline I want Kira to have an opportunity to “Act” more, act like she’s a bimbo, act like she’s a foreigner that doesn’t speak russian, etc.

I really want to include a lot of “roleplaying” dialogue options in her quests.

All of that will be choice-based of course, so if that kind of degradation/humiliation is not your cup of tea, you don’t have to worry.

Another thing about her is that she “dates” Nadya and both of them are AO (anal only).  You will be able to join their relationship and optionally make Kira AO as well, if you choose to do so.

Now, I’ve thought about making this whole AO thing “functional” - turning it into another feature by actually adding an option to avoid vaginal sex in all of our relevant events, but I’m not sure it’s worth the hustle.

I mean, it would be a really cool feature, but it would take at least a month of work and I’d rather focus on adding new events.

All in all, I hope you like both Liuda’s art upgrade and her planned storyline. Her art took me more time and effort than I hoped, but I personally like how she turned out.

In case you missed the notification, here’s two polls in regards to her final look:

Thank you for your patience and support! This month we’ll have more polls and teaser posts due to the nature of the upcoming update, so I’ll talk to you again rather soon! The end is near!
