Hey everyone, I hope you’re all doing well. This feature focus poll is getting the option most people have been excited for added back, the scene transitions. Now we don’t know which option will win but going off the amount of people asking for it it will probably win and I just wanted to quickly say if it does, or one of the other options that is quite a big one wins, I will probably have to do the feature focus update the one after the mid month. Just because the mid month update will be the new scene so I will be focusing a lot on that and would like to give the winner of this poll as much time as possible so its not rushed :)
Anyway here are all the options I have, hopefully there’s something for everyone
Scene Transitions
This will be following on from the ones I’ve already added and will work in the same way. Here is a look at some of the newer ones I’ve got done recently.
I think I will be able to get 2-3 done and will have a poll with one of the WIP posts with all the sketches I have done and then you can vote which ones you’d like to see added.
There is also some other ones from previous scenes I haven’t got done yet like for the Legs Spread On Desk, both the Hole scenes, H*ndjob etc so they will be in the poll as well.
If there are any other scenes you’d like these done for let me know and I might be able to get a sketch ready.
C*mshot Location
This is a feature that was added to a poll so long ago and when it did win a lot of people did seem to like it but since then I have been trying to work out how’s best to get it to actually work in game, the previous way was a bit complicated and had too many options.
Over the past few months I have been adding it to some more scenes in a new way which I think works a lot better also with some improved animations.
The plan with this, if it wins, is to again do a poll at the start of the month to see which scenes people would like it in and then I should be able to get it added to a few of them.
I think once I have a decent amount of scenes with this feature I can start to add more customisation and also add some more locations to each scene as the new code I have for it makes it a lot easier to do.
More Head Redesigns
It has been a long time now since I started doing the character head redesigns and I think at the start people didn’t think they were the best thing for the game but now that its been some Time and a lot of the characters have had a head redesign people are really liking them and I hope that is the same for everyone. I have a lot more heads that I would like to redesign as well as some variations for some of the newer characters such as a different hair style for Mercy or the night variation of Carrot and I think if I was able to focus on them fully for one of the updates I could maybe get around 10 redone.
Here are a look at some of the ones I would still like to do.
If this looks like its doing well in the polls ill get some more sketches done and will be able to show you them at the start of the month then we could maybe vote on which ones you’d like to see done.
I do need your suggestions for this now though as i have pretty much done all the characters that needed to be updated as they weren't drawn the best so now its going to be more variations or characters and stuff like that. So if you have any suggestions please let me know and ill try get some sketches ready for them.
Updated Character Hair
NOTE - GIF’s are reduced quality and will be smoother in game
This is something I’ve been really interested in for a while but could never seem to get it working how I’d like. At the moment the hair kind of just moves up and looks good but could be a lot better I think.
I have now got this kind of code to work that gives the hair a lot more movement for different directions of the head as you can see above.
Here is a one of it moving up and down to give a kind of idea of how it might look in a scene but there’s a lot more adjustments I can make to it to get it looking perfect. I know this is kind of a small thing but I really think it would just improve the overall feel of scenes by quite a lot.
One small thing with this though. From what I can tell it doesn’t use much performance at all everything runs very smooth and works well, however I am testing this on new computers and new android so this might not work as well for others. I’m pretty sure it will work fine for everyone as looking at the stats it doesn’t use much performance but I am going to have it as a toggle so you can turn it off if you either want to or have problems with performance .
New House Themes/Backgrounds + Adding More Night Backgrounds
I have added this as a little extra option to see how many people would like this. There hasn’t been a new house theme for a while now so would be nice to get maybe 1 or 2 added. I’m not 100% sure what theme I would like to go with but I was thinking maybe one from and show and then one generic one similar to the Lava & Bamboo ones. Let me know if you do have any ideas for this though even if it’s not going to win as I would like to do some more anyway in the future.
Thats everything I have for this poll. I know a lot of people want some stuff to do with the “Scene Things” option like B*sh, F*ta etc so this will probably be the one I add back to the poll next. But let me know if there’s any other previous options that haven’t been in it for a while you’d like added back, maybe the images and animations focus
