Hi,
here are the two designs I have been considering for the ship's Doc.
Considering the quite positive feedback on A it might be obvious but I thought we'd have a vote anyway.

Hi,
today I integrated most of the Early Access Fixes into the Upper Tier EA2 Release for 30th September. Tomorrow I will test them and also analyse two quest issues I couldn't reproduce so far.
In the meantime I worked a bit on the Medical Crew Member.
I tried a few races (Voro...

I corrected a Patreon Tier naming issue that has plagued me since the page started.
"All-Access Patron" has now been renamed "Upper Tier Patron".
So there are

currently I am collecting and fixing issues from Early Access Phase 1. Except for one quest bug (patch already posted) mostly minor GUI glitches(5 issues so far in total) .

As I am getting quite a few questions regarding the mini-game:
An issue was found with Nimhe pony walk and T'Ris that can screw up SUB progression for either of them.
It occurs if you do a playthrough from _before_ T'Ris visited Pet Class and do T'Ris Pet Class _before_ Nimhe Pony Training
Hi,
there have been some suggestions regarding the Character of Seraphine. Some players like her, possibly remembering The Princess And The Tower, while others feel she does not fit well into the S...

Hi, here is the release notes post for V1.00 (in preparation for the release)
Thanks to all the Beta Players for finding and putting up with issues.
Hi,
the first wave of BETA 1 Issues has been reported (special thanks Oddora, kicks6666, Sadik, Oniros, Sean MacDonald and Hert Fanfiction). I should have taken another day for internal testing as Beta 1 was not as stable as I would have liked...
In any case all issues have been fixe...
Hi,
about 90% through with quest testing in BETA now.
While doing the major quest combat I got totally annihilated and found out, that Khelara's in combat reload did not work properly.
Thats fixed now. You can see my encounter start against the Voron Zealots and the...
Hi,

Hi,
today I am busy integrating the final game elements in the Beta, adjusting the last code of the disciplining game and hopefully finish the code.
Tomorrow I'll do a playthrough of the new content and then release the Beta on 22nd GMT 16:00 if all goes well. VIP Early access is 4 d...
Hi,
today was a quite productive day. Finished up Seraphine's favour system & initial animation (Flashback to Princess Tower...) and Khelara's anims as well.
While cleaning up the item database I tied in some items for those who have everything :)
The Voron Hyperdrive allows 1...

Hi,
today I completed code, dialogue and animations for a Seraphine and Khelara Renders / Anims. Originally wanted to be code complete today, but that will take until 20th.
Still need to do
Hi,
today I was scripting the main quest.
Here ar a few screens from an encounter in Space. The Precursor Site is guarded by a Voron Faction and you need to decide to go through them or around them :)
If you fight them and win you are thrown right into the Precursor level ...

Hi,
today I found out that that there might be an issue with V0.9c. Due to a mistake in my Configuration Management System I cannot 100% say whether the issue was released into the wild in a Patreon release.
In any case, if you encounter a crash when talking to Nimhe about Public Favo...

Hi,
I started with integration of the V1.00 BETA today. As the setting is Voron Space for the main quest I couldn't help but make some Voron Gear to upgrade the ship
Hi,
today I set up the last V1.00 animation and tomorrow I will start with integration work towards the Beta on 21st. I have still to render out some images and all the anims, but thats less work than setting the scenes up in the first place.
While the Renders are running is also a go...

Hi,
today I added some smaller items for variety. There is now the chance the "Space Oddity" which V discovers leads via a random Wormhole to a Mining Field in The Swarm Domain. It has some nice and unique loot / finds :)
I tested the new Precursor Junkyard as well. As I got some que...

Hi,

Hi,
today I added some Voron specific space encounters and events. There are no Pirates in Voron Space but the much more dangerous Zealots (which can't be bribed...).
To get more combat variety, I am considering to make their seekers paralyzing so you think twice before absorbing them...

Hi,
today I have been working a bit on the disciplining minigame. As it is three characters (T'Ris, Nimhe, Khelara) and there need to be various minigame states (with pants, without, ...) and success / failure images those will be a bit more renders than expected. I'll finish those renders ...

Hi,
today I prepared some scenes for V1.00.
Can't post any NSFW content for spoiler reasons but I made the Office of The Grand Archivar at the Library (see screenshot).
As this will be the location of some "Practical Research" I made the setup completely in DAZ so I can shoot ...

Hi,
here is a new character preview for V1.00. Archivar Kythera of the Grand Library.
Thought of giving her glasses at first but I'd assume the Voronians had perfected Lasic :)
Maybe I can make a more techy version of the glasses, as a librarian trope works better with :)
