Weekly Update - Happy New Year 2024! (Patreon)

The New Year's Eve party is in full swing. It is chaotic and noisy, and you feel like you need some fresh air and quiet. You arrive on the balcony while the clock strikes midnight and the fireworks explode in the air.

Turning to face a figure sneaking up behind you, you meet the tall, imposing bodyguard you've seen walking around the crowd all evening. She appears to finally let her guard down for a second as you both share an intimate moment, welcoming the new year in the glow of the colorful pyrotechnics.

I hope you've all had wonderful holidays, regardless of how you celebrated it. Admittedly, I've been slacking off a bit in the past week, opting to accompany my SO during her full week off, and not working much.

That said, I did spend some of my downtime working on some random project that I might show you if it ever gets to an interesting point. It is not a game, but another medium. We'll see.

I have received the sketches for a new CG Scene starring the childhood friend, so I should get on it and start working on that dang game already. I need to change game engines and I am currently debating whether or not I should develop it on Tyranobuilder or Ren'Py. I am rather intimidated by the latter, but the former appears to be very similar in nature than the flawed Visual Novel Maker software I am currently using. I might give it a go.

Finally, here is a random list of wild ideas I've had for 2024. I don't think I'll accomplish any of them : those are just ideas that have been floating around in my head during the holiday break.

• Creating a printable 3D statue of Vivian in her tactical suit and sharing it here
• Commissioning short black & white manga stories
• Creating a parody/pastiche of Metal Gear Solid games in RPG Architect in which you fight against a few muscle girls

Let me know if any of those set your imagination on fire. In the meanwhile, I'll focus on making games.

And that's it. I have a good feeling about the coming year, and I hope my work will be up to match my ambitions.

Until then, stay safe out there!
