Hello everyone!
It’s been almost 3 months since the last dev update: you were (hopefully) busy playing the latest version, we were busy working on the new one, as usual, and it’s time to shed some light. 😊
We took some time to focus on internal things and now we’re back with regular posts and updates!
Thank you for playing, for your feedback and support!
Thanks to your continuous and generous support, the team has yet again grown up 1 person. We recently hired a project manager—meet ZIV01! “Project manager” may sound boring, but he’s probably the most important person in the team. 😁 With his help, we’re aiming to work more efficiently, stay focused, have better structure to be able to meat deadlines and, of course, drop updates more often!
Right now, there’s an ongoing effort to get everything organized and structured, as requested by ZIV01. But we’ve also done a lot of real dev work, so let’s dig in!
Prologue Day 5
The next build is planned to be a v0.4.5 and it’ll already include the early version of the 5th prologue day!
This day will focus on the whole Ginart family going to the Intercity mall in Lindcliff village. It’s the same mall that we made a model for which I mentioned back in this dev update! We had to delay it’s development back then—it was a big bite to chew for us at the time.
Available locations at the Intercity mall will include: a DVD store (where you can buy some adult movies), a shopping center and a warehouse. Other locations that will have quests after the prologue include: gas station, director’s office and a webcam studio.
New gloor scene!
Did you enjoy the Toilet Meat? Yeah, it was something special.
This one will be milder yet still pretty niche. It’ll take place in a medieval-fantasy-like setting. Without spoiling too much—if you ever thought of having sex with a huge Alisa (or playing with a tiny male 😉)—this one’s for you!
Tattoos
Continuing working on the character customization—and this time the focus was pretty much only on tattoos (I know you want them really bad 🤭).
There’ll be 17 tattoo slots with a total of 51 available tattoos. They’ll come in different styles and you’ll be able to get them from various tattoo masters scattered across the open world. So, there won’t be a way to test those on Alisa in the prologue naturally, but you’ll probably spot some tattoos on NPCs in v0.4.5.
At the moment of writing this post, all the tattoos are already added into the game, so make sure to hop into our Discord server’s #sneekers-peekers channel to see how those look in the game!
Day 3 rework
Originally, the work on the 3rd prologue day (Spring Mansion camping) was done solely by ArkadiyVicont. It was his first task on this job, and while he did solid work, it had some game design and narrative flaws. So our screenwriter stepped in to rewrite certain aspects and right now the rework is complete narrative-wise. We changed the MC’s reaction to the surroundings and rewrote the mansion backstory, tying it more with the lore.
As for the game design, we plan to make survival during this day more challenging and also implement more horror elements.
New clothes
Fantasy armor for the aforementioned gloor scene
Leather skirt
Leather jacket
Tube bra
Bikini
New buildings
Sex shop
Diner
Truck parking lot
City blocking modification (fences, roads…) and the Fire tower
Made and improved open-world buildings prototypes for: electric transformers, post office, path to the Silver mine.
Mechanics and backend
Adjusted pipeline for multicolored clothing—now we don’t have to create a new base color layer to create a unique clothing design, we can just apply mask if we want to have a multi-colored item.
Working on dividing the game project into chunks in order to separate mechanics from content development. This will allow us to have more stable builds and, in theory, this should reduce content release delays caused by complex and lengthy work on mechanics and coding.
Added weather condition check and weather change tracking. Later, this will be used to, for example, make Alisa’s clothes wet the same way it happens upon using a shower.
And that’s it for today! Let us know what you think in the comments!
Best regards, kufe7
