The work ahead!
Added 2015-04-02 14:05:43 +0000 UTCHello people! Thank you all for the support! The game is about 50% done. But you must be asking, "what exactly is these 50%?"! A lot I tell you! As you can see in the Betas, the key features of the game are fully functional. Now I will point the things we need to do for the complete game: 1-The super muscular burst sequences(FMG works too) of Jack, Tali and Miranda for the first act. You already saw Liara's scene on the second beta.I am half way of Miranda's scene right now. These scenes takes time because it's animated and there is a lot of shadows and highlights on the muscles; 2-I need to improve the dialogues for the first act, they are too short for this kind of game. Some pieces of graphics pratically arent' used because of this; 3-Graphics for the second act. All the girls will a completely different set of graphics. I will reutilize some bits here and there, but they will be more muscular than the first act, so, a new set of graphics for every girl is needed. It's about 120 pieces arts. Its a lot doesn't it? 4-Write the script for the second act and endings. It's easy. but it takes a lot of time; 5-Implementation of the save system. The game will have a save state feature between the meetings. Also the game will save the unlocked features on the gallery section; 6-The Gallery section. All graphics and events will be available there for you to see anytime you want. You just need to complete meet the girl and finish the game. There additional rules and details, we'll discuss about it soon. The harder part, the mechanics, coding, the boring stuff, its pratically done. Now it's missing the graphical part. Can I rush it? Of course I can. Should I? Of course not! The game needs beautiful and shinning graphics to function! I am doing my best to make the best game possible. I believe the main game, 6 girls, 2 acts, 3 endings and gallery, will be release in this year yet, by november or a little later. Meanwhile, here on Patreon, I will post bits of the game, scenes, sketchs of the graphics, scripts. I will use a SPOILER ALERT tag on the files and articles which contains critical information on the story and endings. That's it! And don't worry about my english, a person will fix the text of the game soon. Every sugestion, comment, critique, advice are welcome.

I agree with Alternate202. Some stuff about Tali would be interesting.

2015-04-09 11:38:39 +0000 UTCWell now that you mention it, I wouldn't mind possibly seeing a little bit more Tali-related stuff (though again, not too much). :p

2015-04-08 18:36:28 +0000 UTCI gave some thought last night and I think this is very doable. I will make sketch about this.

2015-04-08 15:47:20 +0000 UTCThanks. But you guys can help me with that too. Just tell me which part you would like to see more details and I will take care of it.

2015-04-08 15:41:58 +0000 UTCThanks. I think it would make for some great lezzie action since even the original game allowed it.

2015-04-08 05:47:51 +0000 UTCThat's cool. I certainly wouldn't want to end up seeing everything beforehand and have nothing at all left for the finished game. A little (or a lot of) surprise is a good thing, even as tempting as it may be sometimes to want to see everything right away. :p I'm sure you'll strike a good balance between showing enough and not showing too much.

2015-04-07 21:39:57 +0000 UTCThank you very much for your words! I am trying to be careful to not post critical information about the story, I don't want to spoil the game. But in the same time I want you guys to know the direction the things are going. And feedback helps a lot, this way I can focus in the parts the people are more concerned. I will more gameplay bits soon, not the entire sequences, just bits to enjoy the game while the game isn't completed.

2015-04-07 20:44:02 +0000 UTCHmm...In theory it would be easy to feature both genders for Shepard since he doesn't shows much. But Some text lines needs to be changed since "Shepherd" brags a lot about his... gun. I need to think more about this.

2015-04-07 20:37:07 +0000 UTCFirst off, congrats again on the fantastic work so far! The betas (second one especially) were even better than I was expecting, and I was already expecting them to be great to begin with! Judging by how things are going, you're well on your way to making an incredible game! I also couldn't agree with you more about not rushing it. Like I said on your blog a little while back, it's always better to take your time and do it right, make something you're happy with, rather than rush it and have everything look bad just for the sake of releasing it sooner. Your amazing artwork is one of the main reasons this whole thing looks so cool, so you should definitely take all the time you need to get everything looking as great as possible. It'll certainly be worth the wait! It's very cool getting a peek behind the scenes at sketches and text files and things on here. Part of me almost doesn't want to look at some of the spoilery stuff and just be completely surprised by everything in the finished game, but there's no way I can hold of for that long when it's right there! :p So I'm looking forward to seeing the stuff you post about it here during the weeks and months ahead. It's almost hard to believe that it's looking so good already when we've only seen a small fraction of what's in store, when there's so much more left to see! Again, amazing job so far, and keep up the absolutely fantastic work!

2015-04-06 21:54:15 +0000 UTCAny chance to choose a female Shepard rather than the male one?

2015-04-03 14:56:36 +0000 UTCI'll post all the frames of all animations soon. Everything. I am still working in them, polishing the edges.

2015-04-03 14:53:24 +0000 UTCAlso, it was just one image. Saw that earlier, hence my question/suggestion.

2015-04-03 14:15:24 +0000 UTCWas hoping for some images from the flexing animation. I mean, there's ways to decompile from the sprites but I figured he has all the poses plotted out as images.
