oh i see, you wanted to know the contents of the last update. that was lactation, stomach noises available outside of streaming, and calorie req scaling between days 10-20
they're already divided into head and body sprites. I am not drawing the human sprites by hand, i'm capturing them in koikatsu character studio.
splitting the character even further with separate sprites for boobs/arms would be more efficient but not really possible with screencaps of 3D models because repositioning body parts affects shadows on other body parts. it's possible if I draw everything by hand, which i do in one of my other games
if you want to start over and delete your old save data, there's an option for that. the "restart with save disabled" feature is so you can re-experience earlygame progression without committing to deleting your old save file. if saves were enabled when restarting, it would immediately override your old save
i could make it even funnier and have the chat message say "$10 if you finish the whole thing in X frames" and have the number X depend on the exact framerate
funny that you mention that. i've been looking through animation sprite sheets, like for fireworks, that I could use for lactation, but i came to the conclusion that I'll have to draw it by hand
realistically, where on the body would the added weight go?
her face? no, i don't want to
breasts? that's the one part where weight gain is already implemented
belly? she'll be stuffed 99% of the time so you wouldn't even notice
ass/thighs? she's facing towards you, so you'd barely see the ass
it seems like a lot of effort for something that is far less noticeable than you would initially think. at most, i could make a chubby version of 0L-3L (only affecting the belly) and have stage 4 use 5L instead, and so on
If there's a difference between the two forum cultures, I don't know it yet. All I know is that on one forum, my thread gets buried by weight gain-themed ren'py VN slop, and on the other, it gets buried by vore-themed ren'py VN slop
the number of variations required for each image (top heavy, bottom heavy, naked, large breasts) is so high that i would realistically be choosing between masturbation and belly rubs. one or the other
the current implementation of vore basically allows you to live out the fantasy of swallowing a "person" without having to think about the implications of actually killing somebody. i want to keep it tame, relatively. it does seem likely that i'll be able to add an alternative larger prey, equivalent to 4 gingerbread men, that will be the closest to same-size vore within my constraints.
a theoretical birth sequence would require me to work in KK studio to keep it visually consistent. if there is a koikatsu model of a newborn baby that I can use, i could probably work with that
ah, i was afraid that something like that might happen. the game only considers you eligible for starting the challenge if you have an empty stomach and intestines at 8:00, so if you don't start from empty you'll be stuck in a vicious cycle. i will look into improving the logic for this
i originally did it that way because I didn't want people to cheese the first day with food still undigested from the previous day, and it is better to convict 9 innocents than to let 1 guilty person go free
1. the ambient stomach sound you're thinking of actually occurs when the belly transitions from top-heavy to bottom-heavy, so it will naturally make the sound less as your capacity increases
2. i removed the prey struggling animation between hours because the added delay was getting annoying
issue was found, it was array out of index exception for the plates that stack up while streaming. i increased intestine capacity from 6 to 8 but forgot to account for that. i theoretically fixed this a few updates ago, but the fix didn't work because I used <= instead of < and i never tested it. gen 1 pokemon moment
it is a hassle, but not so much of a hassle that it can't be done. however, due to the increased number of variations, it would also make it prohibitively more difficult to implement alternative costumes in the future, should I choose to do that
this game is themed around eating, so it's not likely that we'll be involving other holes. the most realistic options I'd be looking at are 1) same size and 2) cosmetic alts for the gingerbread man, for those who don't feel like eating those cookies is "real" enough
