July Update
🕑 Added 2019-07-31 15:04:00 +0000 UTCThis was a very productive month.
The next Ponut Pack will be ready in a couple of weeks, and it'll probably be the last art pack I host for awhile. Also, something sparked my inspiration, and I decided to make an entire new game from scratch this month. My goal is to get it playable as soon as possible so my patrons can check it out and start giving me feedback.
New Project
It'll be an adult roguelite game that involve furry characters, and the main focuses will be sex animations, decision-making, and risk vs. reward gameplay. There are different characters to choose from each with their own abilities, and the items you find have interesting properties that can inspire unique builds. A full view of your character is always visible on the left, they'll talk as you play the game, you can interact with them, and you can pause the game at any time.
The question often pops into mind: "what about the people that just want to 'skip the grind' and see the lewds?" and my answer to that is simple: don't have any grind to begin with. Make the gameplay legitimately interesting, and integrate the adult content in such a way that there's never a desire to 'skip' anything.
Over the years I've played a lot of adult-games, most of which are terrible. You often begin by swimming through an ocean of dialogue, only to eventually get to the incredibly bland "game" part (usually some tedious mini-game or grinding), all so you can eventually unlock a mediocre sex scene. This game I'm working on will not have these quality compromises: the gameplay will be good, and the sex animations will be good.
Other Projects
One question that might be on the minds of my fans, is why start another project when there are so many unfinished ones? Finding motivation can be difficult when it's a creative process, so when inspiration comes, I just roll with it. The most important thing is for me to just keep working on stuff, and not get stuck on a project. I can't allow myself to feel guilty for putting something off, or else it'll kill my motivation. I just have to work on whatever I have the inspiration to do.
I work in motivational bursts: with the right inspiration, I can finish an entire project in under a month. However without that inspiration, even if I force myself to work on it, it can be like trying to push a boulder up a cliff. Even if I spend all day, I might only progress a few inches, when there are still miles to go. Sometimes I just get legitimately stuck on something, something I can't just "do", but instead have to think about and problem-solve. In that case, I usually just work on something else instead.
Basically I just have to keep going with the flow. If my inspiration says to do something, I have to listen, because if I fight it and try to force myself to work on something else: I quickly lose motivation and end up working at a snail's pace. The way I see it, as long as I'm always doing something, that's a good thing - so I might as well do whatever I can work on the most efficiently.
