so that's why I indicated earlier in the week I'm replacing the art to make spine animations more cost-effective what used to cost me a hundred bucks per go should be reduced between 50 and $30 per go.
Ms Thompson's animations are fully replaced the girls animations are being built it's going to cost about $800 total to replace the girl items but I have already paid $300 down and intend to pay another $300 again in the coming payday.
During this time I'm going to be rebuilding my menu system to be more aesthetically pleasing.
Once this rebuilding of the art has been completed the next phase of development will begin on actually making the story proper.
This will involve adding story elements and the ability to randomly talk to girls ( who I can pallet swap for cheap now)
This will enable Quest opportunities such as uniform inspections and open up the possibility of introducing the infraction system.
The infraction system is what enables greater levels of humiliation.
For example if you catch a girl in the hall doing graffiti she can be randomly uniformed inspected and if she has both been caught doing graffiti and uniform inspecting she has a level two infraction rate which means you can paddle her on her bare bottom.
The way it's currently implemented in game you can do it at any time but I want to create a hierarchy of offenses.
So a level one girl will be punished on the panties a level two girl on the bare bottom and a level three girl fully nude.
A fully fleshed out Quest system will be introduced similar to what's already been put in game.
During this time there will also be some Polish updates as well for example actual walking animations.
Please I beg you if you have ideas that you would like to see implemented in game talk to me leave messages here or come to my Discord, post on f95, for anime otk.
So i finished participating in a game jam, I havnt abandoned the work, it just was slowed. The game jam taught me some clever UI tricks and thats what im working on now, I have upgraded to godot 4.4 and learning to use the spine extension, this should cut down on the cost of art long term.
so right now the road map is: Fix ui bugs accumulate more art Integrate spine with godot. I have a new artist who has showed me a to cut costs, it takes more money upfront but small edits can be made for much cheaper!
