Alright, so, where was I…?

Last week was not pleasant. I was the worst sick than I’ve ever been in a long time. Thankfully, the goal system I’ve adopted isn’t totally fucked yet. I am going to have to really push to get my monthly goals in, but I don’t think I’m in danger of failing yet.

Anyway, when v0.32 goes to the backers, it’ll have two quests- Send Newts and the finale to Dude, Where’s My Sword? This sets up the end of the Cult Quest storyline, which will probably be the first of the four storylines to close out, maybe by fall, depending on how much of a pain it is to set up the storyline reward harem girl. She will have an alternative relationship system, kind of like Eulania, based on how often you have sex with her, and triggering her Love Quest can happen VERY quickly so all that in mind she might skip the line a little and get new CGs immediately after Orange Kid.

For v0.33 I really want to get three significant pieces of content. One is going to be the Westcastle shopgirl- Nekochan is cooking up a very adorable character design for her, and I’m pretty excited to have a new harem girl in the game, for the first time since… Nerys or Diadira, I think? For the other two pieces of content, one is gong to be an Ancient Mysteries quest, not sure about the other one.

The reason for all the planning is because I want to finish the year at the endgame. Obviously, there is a certain of life RNG involved, but I’m hopeful. What’s going to be really difficult is the post-game- I don’t expect a lot of patreon supporters will stick around for dialogue rewrites, new sex scene CG, and preview art of the next project, but we’ll see? After all, so many of you have supported me this far.

Anyway, I just wanted to expand on my goal structure and wrap up last week’s topic a little bit better. See you next time!

Here’s how my year has gone so far:

January 1st: Nice, relaxing day, got a little bit of work done.
January 2nd: Set out year-long goals in writing, got all the contract work in line for the next month.
January 3rd: Head cold

I am currently writhing with a mixture of frustration and the shivers as I consult the best medical advice available on the interwebs to figure out why the fuck, between Nekochan and I, one of us is basically sick at all times. We’ve tried pretty much everything at this point, and I’m honestly on the verge of bathing the cat in hand sanitizer and setting fire to all our clothes.

Anyway, my moaning aside….

Like I mentioned, I’m writing a list of fairly detailed long-term goals this year, breaking them down into seasonal, monthly, and weekly targets, with a little bit of wiggle room to be revised as needed. I’m still ironing out the details on the “career” goals, but I’m hoping this new method of planning things works out.

Anyway, just wanted to do a quick “check-in”, can’t word good with a head cold so I’m trying to stick to more “menial” game-elated tasks like enemy and map design. See you next week!

Starting this week, we’re adding a new funding option for those who want to support development of the game and are frustrated with the large backlog of old or unfinished sex scenes. You will now be able to directly fund art assets for sex scenes in the backlog, accelerating art assets to be worked on alongside the usual art schedule. This allows fans of particular characters to invest directly in getting art for their preferred scenes done first.

There are a few stipulations:
-Payments are processed via Paypal. While payments are processed through the Bad Kitty Games Paypal account, all payment go 100% into the new artwork- BKG does not take a “cut”.
-The cost of a sex scene is generally $70 per image. We will not accept payment for a sex scene piecemeal, however we are willing to accept payments from multiple individuals if a coalition forms to pay for one of these sex scenes.
-The other major factor is SacB0y’s schedule. We will fit in the accelerated sex scene art as soon as possible, but this isn’t the only game that SacB0y is working on, and if this program proves popular, SacB0y may simply end up worked to capacity.
-After payment is received in full, work will generally begin on the following month, and take 3-4 weeks, although there may be delays that you will informed of up front.
-For now, only scenes with existing 3DCG are being pre-assessed. If you’d like to accelerate any other scenes, by all means ask, and I can provide you with an answer.

You can find the pre-assessed prices and other details here.

New in this version:

-New quest! Make sure you’ve finished up all quests that deal with Eastfort then walk on over to see the next Kellos Invasion quest!
-Redone artwork for Alina’s pretty much everything, ‘Claiming your property’, ‘Salty Dessert’, Vacation, and ‘Sex a la Carte’ sex menu scenes all are updated with brand-new art!
-New happiness and furniture systems!
-New sprites and faces for the Hero!

Things are a little behind right now, so we’ll probably not be able to kick off testing week until Friday. There are a few reasons why, such as last week’s embarrassing display (Ugh…), but I won’t get into those. My obligations are clearing up and I should be able to cross the finish line a little late but otherwise with plenty of time to spare. Thanks, as usual, for your patience.

One of the things that has been distracting me is a Warhammer 40k miniature painting contest that I’m entering this Friday. I know, I know, that’s a really silly thing to lose work time on, but in my defense I was the one who pushed my FLGS to run it, so I felt obligated to enter. I made a pretty ambitious model (A T’au Empire Commander in Enforcer armor, standing victoriously with one leg up on top of a dead Plague Marine, I even used the “missile in flight” bits from a couple of Devastator boxes to make it look like he was in the middle of firing his missile pod… and now I’ve gone cross-eyed) and it was just a beast to paint in terms of sheer work. I’ve probably clocked close to 15 hours on it. Way more work than I signed up for, in any case. Nekochan is also entering, so wish us luck!

Here is a really shitty pic of our two entries. Nekochan’s Tech-Priest Dominus is there on the left.

Anyway, I better get back to work. See you all next week for the Backer release!

Hit the depression wall pretty hard this week, so please adjust your expectations for the release accordingly. I hate doing this sort of thing, I feel like a fucking cartoon character every time I have to do it.

In exchange for this lackluster blog post, I invite you to enjoy this preview CG from the new update.

Whew. For once, there’s not a lot to write about. No drama, no problems, also not a lot of exciting new stuff to talk about. Alina’s solo H-scenes are almost done, which is pretty exciting- looking forward to doing new characters.
One thing I’m excited about for next month is doing the Silvayuco art. You see, we currently have it in the budget to do six images or face sets a month. Silvayuco is going to need four, maybe five images, so I have a little bit of wiggle room for fitting in other things. I could get a head start on doing some of Yamamaya’s single-image scenes (the vacation might do nicely), or I could get out some NPC face sets. The magic school students in particular stick out like a sore thumb.
I know this month we’re already soliciting opinions in the poll of the month, but I wouldn’t mind hearing from you guys in the comments or the blog post thread about what you’d like to seem happen in December!
Until then, see you later!
