Here is where we are with Chapter 11's development. Even more progress has been made in correcting issues and improving the look of the final renders and animations. In addition, there are a few story changes that I'm making to the script. This ha...

Ugh, lighting. The bane of my development existence. That and environments got a lot of attention over the last few weeks. It's been a wild ride, and, at times, I was questioning why I decided to take the plunge into UE.

New Environments To Explore
Part of the work in the transition has been making the environments look not only a bit more realistic to the time period, (while still taking some artistic license), but also using what I've learned over the last few years of development to creat...

It took some editing, optimization, custom texture work, new lighting, and some changes to my render settings. But we've got a nice looking setup for all the characters now.
I'll have full body shots and scene renders soon, but enjoy these g...

Today's post is a bit different. I imagine most of you have heard of NLT, but maybe you've missed out on their most recent game, The Genesis Order. Purveyor of wonderful adult games for many years, let me let NLT take it from here.

What a month it has been. The highest highs, and the lowest lows. The good news is that we are ending the last 30 days on a high note. For my regular patrons who watch the behind-the-scenes videos, a lot of this will be review. The rest of you, pl...

Just an FYI that I'll be cutting the frequency of these development updates back a bit (to every 2-3 weeks). Day-to-day is a regular pattern of trying new things, refining existing content in UE, watching some tutorials, and working hard to get th...

The name of the game is now polishing the characters. Still some bigger items on the list, but this is helping me get everything dialed in and finding the errors I've missed.
One big area of focus has been getting hair optimized. By far the ...

This is a dev update that's been rewritten about 10 times now. That means it should only contain 5-8 typos and roughly 25 grammatical errors! This is why I have a beta team for the game releases, folks.

It's 2023, which I keep forgetting. I wish I could say time flies, but developing games makes you feel like time really drags. The constant development cycle certainly makes for a "Groundhog Day" feeling.
