Monthly Report: April (Patreon)

Hi! I'm posting a report like this near the end of each month, reporting on what I worked on behind the scenes and what the vague plans for the next months are. It is intended to help you decide if you want buy-in on the coming month or not.

Note while I will of course continue to release stuff, I will have to reduce my VaM time a bit, as the time I put in was not long-term sustainable. Most people don't realize how much time quality takes. The monthly schedule Patreon is forcing on me is not healthy, I rather release things when they are done. So you will see more irregular releases, but I will be still be releasing something for you every month.

SkyMagic had been an unplanned release this month. I had a stupid idea that could maybe work and manged to build a working prototype after a few hours. Then it "just" needed some more days to make a workable plugin out of it....and even more time to build a demo, screenshots and tutorial to explain what this actually is. I think many still did not understand. Anyway, there are still a few known issues, I would like to improve. I will see what I can do with investing a few more hours.

Other than that I will continue with the plan on adding some more idle animation to the Life plugin. I called the plugin "Life" for a reason, it isn't supposed to be "just breathing". Not sure what exactly I want to do here and how long it will take.

SecretRoom took way more time than anticipated until the result was satisfying. However, now I'm back to spec with my Blender skills again, which was the intent. That might mean I produce some more cuffs and/or other toys matching the set at some point. Probably not before June/July, though.

Stay safe in VR,
