local computer virus bites off more than she can chew

Thank god 🙏

Wanted to have a little project finished by today. Don't have it done yet unfortunately. Heres a little teaser.

"Do you have a fat fetish?"

I'll need to get back to you on that one.

-sure that the text boxes fit everything I want them to say and that they're formatted well. It's hard to tell in editor due to the fact I'm not using a standard font lol. Lots of playtesting required to see how it actually looks in game, but it's gotten easier.

"What is the most difficult and time-consuming part of NEET RoadTrip development? Programming mechanics, creating textures, or maybe debugging?"
Writing and drawing for it really. Debugging can take a while but it's usually fine? Writing often winds up being time consuming due to needing to make-

"Have you ever thought about making a stuffing&weight gain game?"
Yeah absolutely. I do like both in tandem. It's mostly a matter of it being more effort than choosing one or the other lol. I have a future project idea where I'd like to do this, though it's only conceptual for now.

messy pose practice

Preview of the minigame I've been toying with. Currently entirely placeholder graphics of course.

Thank you for the drawing! It's very cute.

"If you were to give a percentage on how much of the update you’ve done, what would it be?"
Uncertain, I don't really want to give estimates like that. I just recently started a new minigame since one of the formerly teased ones isn't ready.

"will Ellie eventually have a different reaction maybe at a higher happiness when you call her hot before going to sleep?"
I didn't precisely have plans for that particular event. But there will be more events based on affection and the like. I've been working on specifically new night events too.

Rough that things happened like this man. Definitely looking forward to your game and will share it once your updates ready. Hope the impact on you isnt too rough.

[Commission] putting the Imp in impossible expectations

I replied to this in some more detail in a reply on this thread actually! But to summarize, not considering it currently. Definitely a learning experience though and I'll make future projects smarter.

The last thing I'll note, the last time I restarted development on a game to change engines was thief game. And while I think that was the right call, rebuilding the game was a massive motivation sucker lol

Not in particular honestly. Im still not much of a programmer, though I did start learning godot a while back.
I'll likely be sticking with rpg maker for a while yet. A lot of my workflow is now kinda tied up with it. But eventually games in other engines is on the table I hope.

But yeah progress is occurring. Also filling out some of the earlier weight stages with more content and not just adding bigger ones.

Honestly the games code is a fucking mess but I guess thats what you get when you keep working on a jam game.
Pretty sure parts of it are held together by duct tape.

Just got done rewriting some of Neet Roadtrips logic. Turns out I was asking the game to redraw Ellies portrait sprites every frame they were present.

Hopefully my solution will improve performance on lower end devices a bit.

"Will there be endings?"
Not in the next update outside of failure states (running out of gas and such.) But I've pondered how I'd end the game theoretically.

Many asks about updates or compliments. I appreciate all of it of course, I won't respond to every single one to not spam. But thank you!
