Progress Update: Selectable Player Character


Hi all,

It's been a while. I've had some unfortunate setbacks recently, which have kept me from spending much time on this project. I'm not sure how much I want to get into the details of personal struggles and such in general. For now I will just say I'm hoping that–for the rest of the year–I can really focus on this project.

Selectable Player Character

One of the challenges I've been facing comes from adding the 3 player character options. I'm happy to be adding this, and I think it will improve the player experience vastly, but it has been a challenge. Developing a workflow for this process has been tough, but I finally think I have one that will work.

Code

I've scrapped most of the code, especially the BlackJack code, in favour of cleaner, more reusable, code. It took a while to figure out the best way to do this, but I think it was worth it. Mostly because as I move forward with future scenes, it will be easier to manage the 3 player character variables.

Next Steps

DEMO

I want to finish a simple demo using the new player character models. This demo will conclude after the sex scene with Alan (where player can top/bottom).

GALLERY

I haven't implemented this yet, but I mostly know how to at this point.

ANDROID BUILD?

I would really like to be able to make an Android build. I haven't researched it too much and I don't have any physical Android devices–but there is an emulator. One of the challenges here is that the UI that I have built, with the round restart button, is not really optimized for mobile devices. I will have to give this some more thought.

Everything always works out in the end. If it's not working out, it's not the end. Stay positive and hang in there! Things will get better! While game updates are great, YOU are more important!
