[previewyoutube=zWRwAMCjJXE;full][/previewyoutube] Hey peeps! Sorry but audio mastering a game takes a long time and alot of focus. The above video are clips of full "interviews" of the cast. The player, you, has been released into the digital world, Naturally the streamers want to find you and have a chat. XD Each video is a cast member. And the next one is coming sooner than you think. The Star and Szy video will drop when the demo is released. Updates: Audio: Mastering is a very tedious job, and there are almost 4500 audio files just in the demo. I am at 90 percent with only the two MC's and the non binary lines left to master. After that, audio is ready for primetime and the demo. H Scene Moans and reactions will be recorded through the next few months as we dial in what we need. Should be fun.
We get the recordings, volume balance that with the rest of the VA audio, match tones as much as possible, compress, gate, High and low pass filters, and adjust the spatial qualities based on the room the npcs are in. Yes we are going that far. It will be slight (I don't want to overdo it), it does add immersion. Unity: Xplicit has quashed a very important bug and has finished the backend of the non binary / H switch branching in Unity. Now that the foundation is complete, here is what is left for Demo Release: 1. Main UI Design and Implementation: This includes sub option menus, chat box, and dialogue boxes. We want more animations to seamlessly travel from one selection to another. 2. Galleries: Both the Fan Art, and H Galleries are planned to be in the demo, with a few things to unlock planned for the demo. The galleries will for sure get into the demo, and may not be at 100 percent intended function. Some things will be added based on design choices in the main game. 3. Character Selection: For the demo, we are going to build almost the full version: Male, Female, and Non binary. 4. Audio Adjustment (fine): NPCs, Each Cast member, and background affects / music will have their own volume control. This will be done for demo release. 5. H Scene Mechanics: A basic version of the more advanced H scene system will be implemented. Plans are grabbing body parts, tempo control, audio response from grabbing body parts (LOL), and a few other touches. Some of it might be scripted, but plans are to maximize the amount of interaction you can have with a live 2D Hentai Scene. 6. Transitions: Camera POV / Bokeh effects plus blur are important. Add all types of transitions, like eyeblink, fade to black, ect, these are important. For the demo these will not be complete. I will most likely request new transitions further along in the game to have a very specific feel in a section of the story. Rain, snow, ect will be added in. All of these things are tied together, so had to be done at the same time. Once we nail down how we want the UI to feel, the parts, minus unforseen issues XD, shouldn't take very long. We will strive to get things done as steadily as possible. If something is not up to our standards, it won't move forward without the updates. Live 2D: Szycrotic , the demon partner of Asterella Star, is ready for Demo Insert! There are way more expressions, but don't want to spoil too much. Idle

There are two more outfits he has. You might see more than one in game. Hentai Scenes: Both H Scenes, male and female, started in ernest a couple of days ago. These will take a while, and will rely on the H scene mechanics to get right. So this can be a time sink for the project until we get it right. I don't forsee any issues. Plan is to have most of the UI for it working by end of February so we can dial in settings, add features, and design the UI and button interactions. Owlidy can't wait to really dig in lol. Character Art: With both MCs, and Moe needing one touch left. There are three characters next up on the docket to get drawn: Comrade Del, Ai Candii, and Projekt Melody. All three are in the concept phase, and a few concepts will be released on Patreon today. These won't be finals exactly, and the models are not important for the demo. So rigging the models is on hold until the demo drops. Translations: Good news! We may have all of the translations ready at Demo Drop! Spanish and German need a little work but we are finishing that up. Budget and Cameo discussion will happen on our patreon with the public and patreon only updates today. Be sure to take a look. I will do my best to have a good update around March 1st. Things are heating up, and I have no life while working on this. I eat and sleep this game, and will until complete. You guys have a good Valentine's day! Project Lead: TherinWhitten PS: Promo work done by Ptolevian got ordered for one of our Waifus, Fefe . LOL We going to hook her up.
