Dev Diary #5 - Animations & Sound (Anaela Sample)
🕑 Added 2017-06-25 15:04:35 +0000 UTC Hello friends,I've got something very special for you today. Before you is an excerpt of the very first sound files/voice acting bits for Sexy Exile. A friend of ours was so nice as to record them for us and we think they turned out incredible! These will be used for Anaela the Angel. Another friend is already working on the original XXX Mode Soundtrack as well - and we're 100% positive that's gonna be amazing, too! ...It's not that hard to tell since we've already received a first version though ;)
On the code front, I'm very happy to be back on track with good progress after taking some time to implement (and getting to work properly) the new animation runtimes we're using. As I already explained in some patron-only posts, we can now use the full 60fps of our game for butter-smooth and more detailed animations instead of being limited to 18fps like before. Yay! Another great advantage is that animations can now blend smoothly at any point in the loop, which is great for syncing them to the gameplay. I've posted the first new animation (with 'idle' and 'thrust' loop!) a few days ago and have since fully implemented it into the game.
The display for stage progress and collected hearts is also working now and I will post more footage as soon as the pressure bar is up and running as well :)
That leaves me with not too much of bare programming - plus level design and balancing - left to do before the first stage becomes actually reasonably playable! We're not sure yet when it will be playable for patrons, but we're actually considering to do an alpha or something for the higher tiers containing maybe only the first stage (and without all the trappings) so that you don't have to wait for the regular beta...
In the meantime, enjoy the angelic voice of Anaela and tell us what you think =)
All the Best
Zanzo and Cucu

Looking and sounding great so far. I'm not sure I'm at a high enough teir for the alpha but i'm very keen to try the playable whenever it's ready :D
