Sneaky New Year!
🕑 Added 2023-12-31 15:00:11 +0000 UTCIt's 2024 already!? Where did the time go!?
First and foremost, I have to shout everyone out, as always! 2023 was an outstanding year, and it wouldn't be possible without your support! This page is my dream, and you've given me the tools I need to make this dream a reality! We've nearly gotten through an entire new chapter for Entangled, and I suspect we'll be back into BOUND by next year, though I have heard from those of you who'd like to see the conclusion of Restricted! Rest assured, I will do what I can!
We've got some big updates for the new year!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Archive Updates. The Sneak Archives have been updated through December! All comics and commissions from this month will be moved over in January!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Content Tier Adjustments. Providing additional information for an update mentioned previously, starting in 2024, the Half/Full Content tiers will be replaced with two new tiers, the Catalogue Tier, and the All-Access Tier. These tiers will be priced at $6 and $12, respectively. These tiers will remain unpublished until January 1st, 2024, at which point they will be published, and the old tiers will become unavailable, so as to avoid any double-charges for the turnover. If - for some reason - the posts before 2023 become inaccessible, the Archives will remain open to the relevant tiers.
Why this change? Aside from general economic inflation, I do hope to bring a new project into the works in the coming year, and I'll need your help to do it! See below for more details!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Catalogue Adjustment. I've noticed that, on some months, the Commissions Catalogue can be a bit thinner than expected. This is typically because I only like to post updates on a given commission based on phase completion (i.e. Sketch, Lines, etc.) But, I don't like that this makes some monthly updates feel less-than-expected, and so - starting with tomorrow's incoming Catalogue - I'll be posting at least one WiP from each commission, regardless of the completion level. This way, you'll always get a large plate of commission progress, and you'll get to see even more of the nitty-gritty that is my workflow! Commission clients will still get to see all the phases of progress, but at least now you'll get to see something!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New Project. As an artist, I always feel like there's more I can offer; more I can do for the people. In my off-hours, I enjoy videogames as much as the next person, and I've talked many times about starting up some type of interactive project! This year, I plan to do just that.
Starting in 2024, I will be taking steps to produce my first Visual Novel! I can't speak too much on the details of the project, but I can say that it will be fantasy-themed, and that I aim to feature an episodic style of format with production, so as to ensure each full-update comes with self-contained content. There will be a learning curve, and things may be slow to start, but it's my hope to have an alpha-demo available to you by the end of the year, with progress reports at least once a month. I can't wait to get started on this, and I hope you'll all find some fun in it! Sound off in the comments if you have any questions, or even examples of VN's you've played in the past that might help me out with inspiration!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vacation. We'll be taking some personal R&R time in January, since we didn't really get to have time off in 2023. We'll be out from Thursday, the 11th, to Wednesday, the 17th. There will likely be no posts on the 12th. Rest assured all commissions will still be completed on time in January!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's all for now! Let me know if you have any other questions, and please have a safe and Happy New Year! Cheers!!

Thanks for the recommendations! I will check them out tonight!

as far as the new project, excited to see what it will turn out to be. Novus has done several sort of visual novel style BDSM games using the Ren'py engine that I enjoy. Haven's port and Left hand magic are pretty good

TBH, I've dabbled with game software in the past, and while I agree that a more-traditional "game" might seem more up my alley, the truth is that I might spend the next 1-2 years just learning a coding language, which would honestly be time better spent just hiring a coder. I absolutely would love to do some games like what you're describing, and I have in fact come up with some interesting ideas for both BOUND and Entangled themed games. But making a virtual novel is - as you said - a baby-step into the game design world. I think it's the perfect step for me to jump into a solo-project. Who knows...maybe if it turns out to be profitable enough, I can hire coders and testers to handle the tougher stuff for me, and just work on art while moving into those more-traditional game directions! The future is wide open!

While I think your output is already more than satisfactory, I'm very excited to hear about the "new project". In addition to being one of favorite bdsm artists, you've proven you're especially-qualified to be an artist for an nsfw-game - commitment to long-running ideas and projects, continuous motivation that's seen you putting out high-quality content at a steady, demanding pace. If you want to test the waters with a VN, that should be fun. My excitement probably has me getting ahead of myself, but a VN does seem like a very baby-step up from the "narrative kink" you've been doing via comics for years. Something a little *more* interactive from you could skyrocket immediately into the top 3 bondage games yet made - an Entangled-themed RPG in the style of Moral Sword, a B.O.U.N.D.-themed infiltration game in the style of Invisible Inc, a bondage-themed deckbuilder... suffice it to say, I don't mean to be pushy, I just see a ton of potential in "kink game driven by the illustrative and creative power of SneakAttack", and I'm excited to see what the future holds there.
