October 30th weekly update! Drawing up a storm

Hello everyone!

Small update for today. I decided to postpone the fan art image sets and the Usagi Star update to November since I wanted to get some Halloween painting out. Doing a total of 2 pieces and an image set, so I need to hurry so I can make them in time for Halloween haha I've one already finished and finished the Korra set too so I'll post those at the end.

I'm still also thinking of things to make blog posts of. I'm thinking of doing some "mini-reviews" of obscure H-games that I like/ learned from. And then having open discussion blog posts like what makes a scene interesting or what mechanics work best in H-games. I'll try to make a list or something and tackle it when I get the time and things stabilize.

For Usagi Star, the next update will happen sometime around mid to late November depending on things. Once I get the painitngs for Halloween done, I'll try to burst through the update objectives before I get busy over the weekend (I'll also be gone all of the following week). I'm also going to try and make a game design document for the game since I feel like I don't have a concrete enough plan for it yet and that's whats leading to the development stalling a bit.

Anyway that's it for me this week. gotta get back to work! See y'all next week!

October 23rd weekly update! October plans and Cat box

Hello everyone,

Hope everyone has been having a good October so far. Mine has been alright, but I haven't had as much time as I wanted to get things done. However, I did get the chance to work on a Korra image set  today so I should be posting that soon since all I have left to do is the colors. I also made some strides on the Halloween image set so that should be ready to go by the end of the month. But unfortunately I don't have anything too substantial to show besides this little Cat basket sprite I made:
Probably some steamed buns in there
But to recap, the things I want to get done before the month is over is:
  • Halloween set
  • Korra set
  • 2 fan art image sets
  • Usagi Star update
Truth be told The Usagi Star update might be pushed to later in November since I have a lot of real life stuff I need to get done before I can work on it. But we'll see what happens and I'll keep you posted. I also need to write a game design doc or something to state exactly what I want from the game because initially I meant it to be a lot smaller, but as I had more ideas for it, it kept adding things to it which has drastically slowed down development ( plus other things I keep doing on the side). I'm gonna spend the rest of the year finishing up everything I've started, and then try to work on focusing on one thing to make sure I can be more consistent with things.

I've also been thinking of using this blog to make, well, blog posts rather than just use it as a chronicle of work I've done. I figured I could talk about game design, art, coding stuff, or review/ analyze some of my favorite hentai games and mechanics. I've been playing a lot of games lately for breaks and I think there's a lot to discuss. Let me know what you guys think and if you'd want to see content like this.

Anyway that's all I got for this week. I'll be moving across the country soon for job purposes so my progress might slow down considerably later down the line, but I'll my best to keep making stuff for you guys.

Till next time!

October 17th weekly update! Lots of things in progress

Hello everyone!

I'm getting this out a little bit late since I've been pretty busy doing some IRL stuff so unfortunately I haven't had time to make as much stuff as I wanted and the weekly update completely skipped my mind. But I do have a lot of things in progress that will be coming out soon hopefully. I want to make an image set for Halloween too but I already have two in the back burner I need to finish plus the Usagi Star update for November and a few other projects I have grillin' in the back, so we'll see wat happens.

As far as the next Usagi Star update goes, I'm gonna try adding in more stuff to improve the game's quality of life. Here's the checklist for the update:

 -Pause menu

-Invulnerability after hit

-Controller support

-Menu controllable via buttons/ keyboard

I should have the update out sometime mid November. I'm gonna be working on making more of the game sprites as well as the CGs and replacing some of the W.I.P art I did for the demo, but like I said it might be a while since I'm gonna be doing a lot of stuff till the end of the year. But I'll try my best!

See you next week!

October 9th weekly update! Usagi Star tech demo released!

Hello everyone!

Whew! After a couple of days of staring at the Unity editor I finally have a demo of Usagi Star for you all!



It's on itch.io right now. It's a secret link so I haven't published it yet just so I can do some last minute fixes if anyone finds anything game breaking so you all will be the first to play the game! Seems like there was some trouble with the link when it still classified as a draft. I should have been able to send it to people with the link but the download itself wasn't working, so I just decided to make it public. Sorry if anyone ran into any issues with that.

A few notes:
  • I didn't have time to map the menu buttons to keys so you'll have to use the mouse.
  • Controls: 
    • Shoot --- Space bar
    • Move --- Arrow keys/ WASD
    • Quit   --- Escapee key
  • "Sex drive" system: When you pickup the spiral power up, Usagi's arousal bar will increase until she reaches orgasms. When she does, you gain a point of speed up to a total of 6 indicated in the HUD. The mo points you have, the faster you'll go. However, getting hit removes a speed point so you gotta be careful about it too.

I also made some promotional art, as well as a game over CG for the demo. I completely forgot to draw for the correct aspect ratio for the CG though so unfortunately I had to try and fit it in on the screen. But at least it's a mistake I made and solved before I made a bunch more for the game haha I'll include the 2 pics I did below the post.

Anyway that's about it for me, I;m gonna go get some sleep lol. Let me know what you thought about the demo and feel free to leave comments, bug reports/ problems, or any ideas you might have for the game.

Thanks for playing and I'll see you guys next week!

October 2nd weekly update! Back to work!

Happy October everyone!

Now that I'm back from my family vacation I can get back to work on things. I don't have anything really to show for this week since I wasn't able to work on much, but things with the demo are going well and I should have some drawing coming up for you guys soon too. I did finish a little Marie doodle since I was testing out a new inking brush: 


Main thing left for the demo is getting the U.I assets done and getting it coded up and ready. After that it'll be adding the speed mechanic in and then once all the tools have been built I'll design a basic level. Once again it won't be anything mind blowing, but I think it'll give a good handle on the project and it's direction.

Also if you haven't already, you should check out Zell23's Forest of the blue Skin. It's a platformer where you fight and collect monster girls. Each of them have a unique way of being captured, from simply defeating them to satisfying them in some way, and there are a lot of them so the game has a lot to offer. The sprite work is also great too, I highly recommend the game.

The game is also FREE so go give it a download from his blog: http://zell999.blog.fc2.com/blog-entry-159.html

There's also a guide if you get stuck or have trouble in, or downloading, the game here: http://monstergirlunlimited.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=85&t=5121

And that's pretty much it. See you guys next week and I hope you look forward to the Usagi Star demo!
