New Update - A Shift in Direction (Without Abandoning the Goal)
Hey everyone,First of all, sorry for the long silence. It’s been a while since the last update. A big part of that was me getting stuck in my own head a bit. Second-guessing decisions, juggling too many systems at once, and trying to move the project forward without feeling confident enough to talk about it publicly as some upgrades are not as visible to the outside but improve the underlying sy...
FratUniversity Update (Windows only)
This update is very much a foundation update. A bit tech-demo-ish still but it introduces some important new systems and characters.Download: Mega| MediaFire| GoogleDriveFirst Impression mechanicWhen you meet new characters, you’ll get explicit options that shape how they come across and how the story responds to you. This is meant to give you more control over tone and direction from the very f...
Performance Update moving to Silver Tier
Dev version moving to the silver tier with some performance improvements. https://www.patreon.com/posts/fratuniversity-136064132Got a bit too far into fixing some performance issues so no story update yet. Since the addition of hair settings this performance update was definitely necessary though. You should be able to smoothly update hair textures now. Also hugging a lot less memory. Hair quality...
FratUniversity 3D Tech Demo Story Mode (Dev Version - Windows only for now)
https://www.patreon.com/posts/136064132Alright there are still some issues with some of the new mechanics so I'll just drop this dev version for now. It includes the scenes from the previous 2D tech demo translated to 3D but not much else apart from the character creator. New content with mechanics that will also update these previous scenes will probably take about two weeks longer. Sorry it&...

3D Story Mode Release Date – New Characters Preview
Just dropping by with a quick update! I originally planned to release the first update introducing Story Mode to the new 3D FratUniversity version of the game in about two weeks. However, since I’ll be quite busy next week, the release will likely shift.It’ll either drop this Friday or in three weeks...most likely the latter.In the meantime, here’s a preview of some of the new characters!

Tech Demo Bronze Tier - Story Mode Devlog

Devlog – Update Tech Demo Now Live!
Okay, this one got a bit hectic last minute but the Tech Demo Update is now live https://www.patreon.com/posts/124937923(Still only Windows but still hopeful Android version will work along with Mac)I updated the occlusion method, which technically works great, but only in the editor. Unfortunately, it doesn't play nice with packaged builds, so I had to revert some changes. That means you migh...

The tech demo for Arena of Thebesis now available! https://www.patreon.com/posts/tech-demo-arena-124937923Starting in the gold but it will make its way through the different tiers as usual.Currently, only the Windows build is supported.

(Bronze) Unreleased Variations
Had a slight scare with my storage media, but found these unreleased variations during backup.
Devlog - Finishing Base Mechanics
Getting the demo out by this Friday, as originally planned, might take a small miracle so a slight delay is likely. That said, I’ve made great progress.The biggest hurdle right now is the loading system. Saving works fine, but I don’t want to release the demo as-is, only for players to create characters and lose those saves when the story mode update rolls out. I want to ensure a smooth transi...

Getting Close and Intimate (Luca & Kyan)
The first of the bronze artworks set with the new criteria for tier separation. Loved experimenting with the new lighting and clothing variations as well. There's going to be more of these variations in the future to really make the most of the 3d workflow and get different moods into each shot. There's going to be another bronze set this month so the overall picture amount is going to act...
