Proof of Life -- Dec 1st (Patreon)

Hey, hope you're all having a great week! 

So, As usual, we've been pretty busy working on AFV. We've been posing, rendering, storyboarding, and making/revising plans for the rest of our 0.08 release. As most of you know already, the 0.08 release is dedicated to taking the MC's relationship with Jacky to an extremely intimate level. I was originally planning on making the main event with Jacky occur this coming update, (0.08_v3) and while there's time to make that happen, I realized that I wouldn't have the time to update all the other repeatable Jacky scenes so they make sense in a world where the MC and Jacky have had sex. I hope that makes sense. Anyways, I've decided that this update (0.08_v3) is going to bring the content up to the very edge, but not over. You know, a little practice in edging for all of you : ) Then our (0.08_v4) release will have the main event as well as updating all the other repeating Jacky events. 

So, that's our current plan going forward, It's a plan I've given a lot of thought to, and even though it may disappoint some/many of you, it will be better for gameplay and the story in the end, and to me that's the most important thing. Not to mention, the buildup events are going to be pretty damn hot!

On top of all that, I've got a bit of bad news to share with you all. My rigs motherboard died this morning, and after consulting with my local computer repair shop, I've found out it's going to take at least 2 weeks to get the parts, and to repair my pc. This annoying setback has motivated me to buy a new rig, and today I ordered a pretty sexy new pc. The sexiest part about the new build is the inclusion of an RTX 4090 graphics card, which is going to allow me to render faster, create more complicated scenes, use assets with much higher resolution textures, create more complex animations, and just make AFV that much better. Unfortunately, it's also going to take at least two weeks for me to get my new pc. What this means, is that the release of the next build will be at least two weeks later than is planned on the schedule, and even though I'll still be able to work on the game's script and coding during those two weeks, I'll be limited on what I can accomplish without being able to create the renders and animations to go along with the script. So, while this setback delays things a bit, the overall result will be a benefit to the game in the long run. 

Thanks to all of you who play and enjoy the game! Thanks especially to those of you who financially support, or who've supported the game in the past. I know I end all my proof of life posts thanking you all and saying pretty much the same thing, and sorry if I'm starting to sound redundant, but I want to make sure I express appreciation to you all for making it possible for me to create AFV! I enjoy making it at least as much as you all enjoy playing it, and even more, I really enjoy the interactions I get to have with those of you who've reached out to give praise, ideas, fix mistakes, etc... 

I'll continue to keep you all up to date on any developments with AFV, and I hope you all have a great week!
