v.018 - Gallery 2.0!
Yo folks!Sorry for the super late drop - This one's actually been pretty dang testy with some of the under the hood updates. We ended up causing some extra bugs and had to iron things out! Things aren't perfect now, but our deadline is VERY SOON for folks on the otherside of the world, so we figured we'd drop this now and probably do a patched version later.Sometimes updates be like th...

Yo folks! Hope y'all are doing well!Let's start with a word from Vixel!- Finished bringing in coyotes date dialogue! Still scripting their mini-activity.- Reworked the Start Menu user interface for starting new games & continuing saved games.

Happy Tuesday folks :>Here's what we've been up to this week, starting with a word from Vixel!4/05 weekly reportSave system progress!

OOPS~! This is a day late! Let's jump into it with a Word from Vixel!3/29 weekly reportFixed a major bug causing critter stories and sex scenes to softlock. (I thought I'd fixed this last week before pushing our monthly builds, but I overlooked something: a race between two scripts to load a file and start playing dialogue.) It was hard to pinpoint at first, but seems to be debugged now! ^...

OOPS Almost forgot to do this today!Let's start with a word from Vixel!3/22 weekly reportStarted last week by adding in Maverick's solo story and gossip, Bucky & Gus' date number 2 with illustrations, and the full color Finley & Rascal loop from their WIP sex scene.Then it was time to do builds!

Yo folks! Hope your March is going well :>Let's start with A word from Vixel!3/15 weekly reportFound and fixed some problems caused by my memory optimization work last week. One bug broke all the illustrated critter stories. (You could start them, but the game would softlock.) Also looks like there's a lag in WebGL builds when loading sex scenes, so we'll probably need to introduce a m...

WHATS GOOD BBs?Here's what's good with us. Starting with a word from Vixel!3/8 weekly reportFinished my memory optimization tasks! This was a leap forward and solves some tricky problems we were facing as we added more sex scenes to the game.[The Background]Previously, sex scenes (and music tracks) were preloaded into memory and stayed there the whole time the game was running. This approa...

YO FOLKS~! Welcome to March!Let's start with a word from Vixel!3/1 weekly reportMade some bugfixes and updates to the earlier monthly build!

Man, where does the time go!Hope y'all are staying safe if you're in that cold snap!Let's start off with a word from Vixel!2/15 weekly reportNew stuff: Added Central Forest fast travel perch.

Kickin' it off with a word from Vixel!2/1 weekly reportFixed the bug causing Mabel and Dustin's date to spawn in the wrong places!

Exclusive Patreon Poll!
OK! This month we'd like another Critter encounter!I think moving forward, we're just gonna call them Critter Dates. Originally, I didn't wanna include "date" since it might imply that YOU are dating them. But I suppose there's nothing wrong with Rascal having a date of his own in the future. Just more stuff to play with as time goes on!Last time was Dustin and Mabel! So wh...
