Quick Update: ETA Saturday-Sunday

Greetings!

Though there's still 2.5 hours of Friday left for me, it's clear that I won't be done by then. I'm thinking I'll be done tomorrow, but it could be as late as Sunday morning.

I posted this info in a comment to the previous thread, b...

0.6 Release: Friday 8/10

Greetings!

Having my workspace back has been good for me and my productivity, and I've gotten a lot done this week. I'm now confident enough to announce a release date: 0.6 will be out this coming Friday, August 10th. It's been a long time coming -...

Weekend Update

Greetings!

I moved into the new place Wednesday, spent all day yesterday unpacking, and now I'm settled in, finally. This past month has been really weird, but the weirdness is now over, thank God. This means that I'll be able to work on the game m...

July 13 Update

Greetings!

I’m sorry I haven’t posted an update for a bit - my move isn't settled yet, and unfortunately I'm still living out of hotels right now, but I'm continuing to get work done on the game. Not as much as I'd like, but a good bit nonethel...

Sneak Peek (and Combat Updates)

Greetings! 

I'm in the middle of a cross-country move right now, so I haven't made as much progress as I'd wanted, but I still got quite a bit done. I managed to get all the renders done before I had to break down my monstrosity of a desktop, ...

Development Journal 20 June

Greetings!

Progress continues on 0.6! I'm about 2/3 of the way done with the H-scenes, and I've had an opportunity to work on a lot of other stuff as well. 

The recollection room is now up and running. My intent was to do an overhaul of ...

Updates (and Portraits!)

Greetings!

Development for 0.6 has been proceeding apace. Since my last check-in, I've written the summaries for the H-scenes, planned out all the shots, and completed about a third of renders. Mind you, this doesn't include postwork, whic...

Val!

Greetings!

At long last, here's the pic of Val I promised! You may not believe it, but I actually spent quite a long time working on her and her dress. I haven't spent this long designing a character since I did the PC's female form. I was original...

Dungeons and Performance (and Val!)

Greetings!

I'm currently working on Val's design - I'd been reading and watching stuff lately about color theory and character design, and I learned a few things that I hope will help make my work more interesting. I'll get out an omake pic with he...

Threat and Battlers

Greetings!

My goal since I finished up my experiments with new rendering and postwork techniques was to finish up the boss battle. I diligently got to work on it, figuring I'd start out with implementing the threat plugin 2018-05-21 21:18:49 +0000 UTC View Post

The Proteus Effect 0.5.2 is Released!

Greetings!

There is no new content - this is mostly a bugfix release!

As usual, I like to try to get out a 'definitive' version of each major release, purged of all the bugs I'm aware of (hopefully without introducing any new ones!), and that...

Wednesday Cheesecake

Greetings!

I thought you might appreciate something nice for hump day!

Over the past week or so, I've been investigating more advanced rendering and postwork techniques, and the picture you see above is a result of that. It may not look View Post

0.5.1 Preloader Test

Just to be clear:

There is no new content in this release! This version is intended to test a solution to a problem that only affects some people. Please only play this version if you're interested in testi...

I expected recollection room to win the new feature poll - and it did - but I was really surprised how well the 'view avatar' feature did! A recollection room will definitely be in 0.6, and I'll be sure to put the 'view avatar' feature i...

New Features for 0.6

Greetings!

I hope everyone had a good weekend, and I hope everyone enjoyed 0.5! It doesn’t look as though 0.5.1 has any horrible bugs, so I’m getting to work on 0.6. The dungeon is going to be the big event of 0.6, but I’m thinking about how ...

Hotfix 0.5.1

Greetings!

This hotfix is intended to address a game-crashing bug that occurs during one of the optional quests.

Sorry for any trouble, and I hope you enjoy the update!

Hopefully there aren't any more really bad ones... but please let m...

I hope you enjoy it!

The Proteus Effect 0.5 is Released!

Greetings!

At long last 0.5 is here!

It took quite a long time to get out, but it is a pretty large update. It took me over 2 hours to get through all the new content in my playtest, but much of the content is optional and/or hidden,...

A Quick Update

I am currently working on 0.5's last event/scene. It is both the last one in the update and the last one I need to finish. 0.5 won't be done tonight, but it will be very soon.

I ended up adding a bit of stuff to 0.5 since my last update, and I thin...

Still Alive, Still Working on It!

Greetings!

The release is taking me far longer than I'd thought. I'm really sorry, everyone. I'm not actually trying to tease, I'm just apparently extraordinarily bad at estimating how long things will take. (As an aside, it's probably a good thing...

Friday/Saturday Update

Greetings!

I wanted to let everyone know that I will likely not have 0.5 out on Saturday, contra my earlier assertion that I would have it out by the end of the month.

It will be out within the next few days; large swaths of it are d...

Development Journal 25 March

Greetings!

I've been writing stuff this past week, but most of the game work I've done has been on renders. Once again, I planned out a large number of them - so good news if you like 'em! I've also been playing around with the cloth simulation eng...

Development Journal 18 March

Greetings!

Earlier this week I'd put out a poll comparing a slightly revised version of the male elf model with the original one. Though the poll hasn't yet ended, it seems there's a fairly clear preference for the newer one, so that's the one I'll...

Poll: Male Model

Greetings!

There were a number of critiques of the original model for Tal'thelas, so I went back and made a large number of subtle changes to come up with an alternate one.

Now, this is an elf, so I want him to look somewhat feminine. As I sa...

Development Journal 11 March

It's been a busy week! I'm currently at work on the boss battle prototype; It looks like I'll be able to make my original concept for it work, and I hope to be done with the prototype today.

Male Model Test

Greetings!

As I mentioned before, I am working on developing a look for male humans/elves, and this is my first effort. This one depicts an elf, so he looks a bit more fey than I plan on having humans look, but still, it gives you an idea of where ...

Development Journal 4 March

The Proteus Effect 0.4.2 is Released!

Greetings!

As promised, here is version 0.4.2! This version is mostly a bugfix update to 0.4.1; there are a few lines of dialogue I wrote, but literally only about 30 seconds worth (if you're wondering, it's when you avoid the 'inspection' scene). ...

0.4.2 Should Be Out Tomorrow!

Greetings!

I wanted to announce that I should be done with Picture Pack 0.4 tomorrow, which means I can release 0.4.2 then, too! My poor computer has been rendering all week, but it's almost done. Just to be clear, 0.4.2 won't have any new content,...

Poll: Render Volume

I'm currently doing brainstorming and planning for 0.5, and as I said in my last update, my PC is rendering away on the high-resolution pictures for the picture pack. There don't seem to be many bugs to bother with (other than the first ...
