I figured it would be a good idea to take a brief break from swearing at Unity (well, the node editor I'm using within it) to provide an update.
After updating the Yui model, namely her nether regions (googling "bagofbaginas" should help the imagination somewhat), many of the existing verte...
2024-12-16 18:52:23 +0000 UTC View PostRelease with fixes for the following bugs:
(Continue Story) unavailable after save/load (state system bug when deserializing numerical variables)
duplicate sets of hands displaying for some suggestions when progressing from 3rd -> 4th scene during same session.
... 2024-11-26 23:17:59 +0000 UTC View PostThe final scene for the Yui route is now available.

While I'm finishing up scripting the final scene of the epilogue, I thought I'd open a poll to get some feedback regarding language support. It's a fairly simple question - is multi-language support something that people would be interested in? If there's enough support, I could eventually look t...
2024-11-21 14:41:49 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick update - I've made the jump to my new development machine and had some teething issues regarding some of the shaders not behaving as expected. I've put a stop-gap measure in place to handle it for now, however it's meant that the next release will be delayed by about a week. The good...
2024-11-10 09:41:12 +0000 UTC View PostI have a good idea regarding some of the different suggestions that I'll be covering with the main cast of characters, however I'd like some more feedback regarding what people would prefer to see in upcoming releases. It's multiple choice, so simply select any of the options that appeal to you.<...
2024-10-31 00:16:59 +0000 UTC View PostA few updates regarding development progress:
I've managed to set-up a system whereby I can record and replay hand mocap data using my Oculus headset and hands (and foot for controlling start/stop recording), and then using a simple anchor I can simulate the interaction of objects i...
2024-10-26 11:42:30 +0000 UTC View PostThe 3rd scene for the Yui route is now available. There's the odd grammatical error and model clipping here or there but it should be good enough for now (or at least until I find a more suitable way of animating loose clothing). The skin texture for Yui has been somewhat improved, and I'm also g...
2024-10-17 00:10:20 +0000 UTC View PostGreetings all,
I have a release almost ready, and I'm currently backporting some character modifications and game mechanics from a new scene into the school scene prior to testing. Once the testing is done the release shall arrive, sometime in the next 2-3 days.
Regarding future relea...
2024-10-14 19:46:53 +0000 UTC View PostThe 2nd scene for the Yui route is finally available! Since I was implementing vertex tracking for blend shapes while working on the scene (as well as doing IRL work for crazy long hours all month), it's taken a little longer than I'd have liked to get the release out. There is one more feature i...
2024-02-13 00:49:42 +0000 UTC View PostI'm starting off with Yui, simply because I already had some of the induction material ready. I intend to open a poll at some point for the next character, however that won't be until towards the end of the Yui route.
The route can be started by selecting Yui from the available options with...
2024-01-06 02:41:24 +0000 UTC View PostThe first release is finally here!
It's a little rough around the edges, but hopefully I'll look to smooth those out over time.
A few things I feel should mention:
- I've locked the resolution to 1280x800 (16:10) for now, since I still need to test the occlusion at higher resolu...
2023-12-03 21:06:25 +0000 UTC View PostIt's been a pretty stressful couple of weeks, however I'm about 95% done with the school environment, with just one more key room left to complete. After that's complete, I'll be focusing on scripting the actual prologue content, alongside updating the UI.
Updates since I last posted ...
2023-10-31 21:07:49 +0000 UTC View PostSo I got around to recording a video of some of the different aspects of the interaction and event systems. Please excuse the occasional missing name or stray interaction point - naturally those won't exist in the final product :P The video quality is far from ideal, however my development rig st...
2023-10-09 15:38:23 +0000 UTC View PostI'm currently configuring all of the scenes "interactive zones" ready for making a start on the prologue scripting.
I've noticed a decline of support, and I suspect that's down to a lack of "tangible" updates (images/videos). Please keep in mind that unlike other projects that rely on an ex...
2023-10-03 11:06:49 +0000 UTC View PostHey, just a quick update to let you know I'm still busy at work on the game ^_^
I'm currently in the process of building the school environment, which is proving to be a much more cumbersome task than it really should be, mainly due to the asset pack that I used for the school - I won't exp...
2023-09-25 17:24:49 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick update regarding development progress.
I'm almost finished setting up a baseline for the lighting, and I've started working on building the 3D environment - the school currently has 12 main rooms which I need to flesh out, and I'm still in the process of sourcing assets for the...
2023-09-18 17:17:24 +0000 UTC View PostI quickly spliced together some script I'd been using for testing hand positions on the face, and knocked up a quick "time stop" trigger with a finger snap :) The finger snap occurs after the text prompt, following a further mouse click, which (in this example at least) would allow the player to ...
2023-09-14 14:56:59 +0000 UTC View Post
Phew!
Design prototypes of the main characters have been completed, and I've almost finished integrating them into the game framework. I've streamlined much of the process so it generally only takes about 10 minutes per model, but since some of the models vary in dimensions and materials, I...
2023-09-13 16:39:31 +0000 UTC View PostGreetings!
There's a lot that I'll go over in the next few days, however I wanted to first explain the general progress of the project, along with what I expect to be completed prior to the initial version launch.
I also figured it would be a good idea to provide some demo footage, so...
