The unglamorous parts...
A lot of the build updates reach this point in development. The cool to look at, easy to screenshot and easy to post about things are done and I'm neck deep in blueprint work. Just to give a quick rundown of the screenshots. There's the test levelwhere I add all the necessary pieces to test out a quest. Thi...
News from the scripting mines!
So putting the imp cave quest lines together and I started running into snags. What if the player goes scorched earth on this quest and starts beating everyone up? How do I keep track of that? Or what if the player decides to corrupt everyone instead? Or seduce everyone? I started making triggers for when those ev...
Quest scripting + odds and ends
Bow and arrow stuff!I need to start working on combat encounter design stuff and currently all of the NPC units only have a few choices for how they interact in combat and ranged combat isn't really an option... yet! So I started putting together what is required for ranged weapons like a bow and arrow. The anima...
Quest scripting!
Still chipping away at the imp cave quest scripting. I have enough of it together now that I'm going to start testing once I finish writing this post. We'll see what kinds of bugs I run into!I also did a pickup mesh for the slime hood from last week... and it got me thinking... so I added a tongue and threw a...
North road watchtower
Because posting images of dialogue trees isn't visually appealing. But yeah, most of the interior space for the north road watchtower is done. There's only a few story critical NPCs I need to create for this location. It's really just a glorified toll booth to help fund the monarchy and the soldiers here...
So much to light
Ok. The story vital imp cave areas are all lit + in game. There's still a few props I'm going to try and polish but the base scenes are ready to go.I also started on the northern watch tower interior space. There's a ton of placeholder assets here but just getting the lighting and vibe base ready.Helmets...
Lighting and writing
Ok, I'm back home and back to work. Mostly been working on lighting to get back into the groove and the above images are the main room and the kitchen in the imp cave. The only other major room to light is the boss room and that will be everything for this next chunk of content.I also have a ton of writing and qu...
Build Notes 1.15.10
Link to download post of 1.15.10And 1.15.09 is still open to all Patreon supportersOkay there's a ton of stuff in this one that's half finished!!! I got bogged down on the screen fx and didn't realize how much time I was losing and didn't get to all of the text scripting that I wanted to. And I've...
Version 1.15.10

Please if you have any concerns hold off and feel free to shoot me a message and I can try to figure out something that'll work safely. Build notes are hereDownload LinkGofile mirror (once the upl...
Pieces, pieces, pieces
Putting everything together. Still a lot of scripting to do but I'm shooting and hopingto have the next buildready for next Monday. There's still a lot of scripting and VFX stuff I want to do but ok let's go over the screenshots.The top set of 3 images shows a lot of little things put together. There'...
Anims for the anim god!!!
And a chef outfit! Ok still working on the imp cave stuff. The chef outfit is textured and I just need to toss weights on that and get it in game.Then animations!Sorry for the still images I wasn't totally sure if the animated versions would be NSFW and require me to paywall them or not here on Patreon. I'll...
Progress!
I added a look at controller to the imp that I can trigger during dialogue scenes. It has the ability to aim at a specific socket too. So it can change focus from the player's face to their hand or whatever. This is just an initial rough version and I'll start to polish it over time.Working some more on the...
Back home!
Just a super quick note / progress update. I'm back home and at my work computer again so I'll be back to fulltime work on Feign after that week away. I did get a bunch of writing and outlines done and now comes the task of scripting and implementing everything!
Imp cave progress!
Worked on actually lighting the imp cave and placing props and textures. The screenshot is still WIP but I think it's a big improvement and has the vibe I'm going for. Now that I've figured out the basic look it's a matter of applying this to the rest of the dungeon too. The imp boss outfit is fully ...
Imp outfits and a WIP player helmet
Ok, got the textures on the imp armor set done and in game. I still have some weights to finish up. That's the full color in game screenshot.Then the imp boss dude's sculpt is done and ready for retopology. And the player helmet / starfish looking creature is in the final screenshot and that's nearly don...
Another imp outfit, bluesky, and doors
I'm going to jam through a handful of these imp outfits this month. This one is for the quartermaster / merchant. The next one will be the boss dude's outfit.I'm trying the social media thing again! I'm terrible at this stuff but I'm going to try and post regular work in progress and development ...
Hotfix and some imp armor
Just put together a hotfix for this last build.Gate guard job should now correctly check to see the player is in uniformNyth (tutorial goblin) should no longer try to arrest the playerCart in the middle of nowhere (there's a bug that randomly occurs when using a door that will drop the player in the middle of nowhe...

Guard armor rigged and in game!
Got all of the body types done for the new Redtree guard armor and finished up the rig. This will be in for the next build! I also did some UI work on containers and inventory formatting. This is the 2nd screenshot above and is something that has been on the to do list for forever. So now the UI elements should s...
Guard armor texturing
Textures are almost done for the new Redtree guard armor. Still another day or two to create the body shapes and do the rigging and in game setup but it's really close!Going to switch gears and hop onto writing, scripting, and bug fixing for a bit.
A little sculpting to unwind
I ended up working on an update to the Redtree guard armor. The current armor that they're wearing is a bit too strong for an early game town and I wanted to get something more appropriate in there. The old armor will still be used on the royal guards that are staffing watchtowers and stuff. I also just needed t...
I'm back!
I've been doing some environment workfor Redtree. Trying to update some of the old textures and get some more polish on the buildings. The screenshot is a comparison from the old blockout to the current work in progress of the hotel in Redtree. Still a solid detail pass to do and I'll end up redoing the tili...
Hurricane #2
Just a super quick update to let people know what's going on. I ended up evacuating for this one. I've got my laptop with me and will be working from the road for at least the next few days. Hopefully everyone out there is staying safe!
Build Notes 1.15.08
Link to download post of 1.15.08And 1.15.07 is open to all Patreon supportersOk this one is going to be fragile. I tested the quest chains in really isolated conditions on a test map. Mostly to make things easier and faster on myself so all of the items and NPCs were right there in front of me. In actual gameplay a lot...

Hopefully everyone out there is safe and doing alright!But I've got 2 last things to finish up then I'll be able to run the build. So probably 2-3 more days?If this is an issue you can always reach ...
