Dev log 8
🕑 Added 2018-05-09 12:11:50 +0000 UTC Time for another dev log as new patron build shaping up. Majority of work is ready, mostly left over are graphical assets and assembling all together.Besides mentioned earlier location and Nailah scene we did add some other stuff. We finally starter implementing more finalized NPC sprites with animation n shit. Not only that, some people complained that walk animation looks awkward when character walk up, well we are starting to address this issue as well!
Here is a WIP preview of our solution - https://i.gyazo.com/39013257a154db02f994070769129379.mp4
For now this new sprite system will be applied only to new NPC sprites, we didn't have time to update MC and companions yet. But everyone should get this sprite upgrade so movement will seem more natural.
A very big commitment was this update new location - trade district

Velvet Oasis entrance will be moved in this location right over central tree mosaic. Eventually we will add more sub-locations here and lots of interactive vendors and other things to do. For those wondering how many more town districts are planned, we plan 2 more at least (though as always everything might change) which would be Slums and Noblemen district. Time of delivery of those 2 are unknown atm.
So what to be expect in the future after this update. We actually reviewed our development plan and decided to make a new milestone to work on - introduction chapter. In plenty of RPGs you get introduced into a world with a starting adventure, be it prison escape in Oblivion\Skyrim, Irenicus dungeon in Baldurs Gate 2 or Temple in Fallout 2. Such starting adventures help player learn game mechanics, get a taste of lore and a good segway into a story. Some obviously done better or worse than the others, but we will try to make it interesting.
Its a first big milestone we plan to achieve (except making working demo from scratch), so it will take us several months to get there. Probably partial or complete content from this introduction will be held back until everything is composed in a coherent chapter. Don't worry though, this doesn't mean we will stop making frequent updates like we are doing now until the introduction is ready. We will still produce average sized updates with new sex scenes and additions to the world, just a part of the content will be saved in order to avoiding major spoilers and ruining the "first" experience.
And this will be it for this dev log. Expect a new patron build in the near future, probably a week.
