What's going on?

The first part of the new scene has been fully scaffolded. I'll start rewriting the guestwritten content tomorrow. While this should progress swiftly, there are a lot of words for me to go through. My best estimate would have me finish next week Friday, but I might be overselling myself.

I don't really know yet. It's hard to tell with these kinds of things. I'll get ready whatever I can, and make Friday the cutoff deadline View Post

Dragoness encounter scene tree

TinkeringTurian post Dragoness encounter scene tree from patreon

Here's the planned scene tree for the encounter with Ruby, the dragoness, in Varanar, Afternoon Three. Note that none of this is final. Fragments in yellow are what I plan to add myself. The one orange thingy is a hook for a completely different scene. Speculate all you wish! Enjoy!

It's too big!

The next update is going to be pretty darn massive. The choices themselves are manageable, but basically everything has three different versions depending on how much charisma Moe has. This leads to a 40000+ word scene, without me even adding my own touch to it.

The solution that I am going to impose is that I'll split the update up into two parts, at the very least. First off are the guestwritten segments, which I'll hopefully implement over the coming week a...

The next update

Will be about meeting a dragoness in the kobold district of Varanar. A thief has stolen something very valuable from her, and fearing retribution, ditched the goods in Moe's hands. Will you return it, keep it, or extort her in return for her precious possession?

This scene was guestwritten by Tokage, the same person who wrote most of Varanar, Morning Three and tea time with Cassidy. I still need to scaffold and partly...

Dislocated is live

Update 2.32 (Dislocated), better known as the Varanar, Afternoon Three, Part One update, is now live. It contains about fourteen thousand words of new content, if not even more than that. It's about the kobold paying a visit to a massage parlor. You'll have to see what happens in there for yourself. Scene tree down below.

So yeah, a lot of new content. It was originally guestwritten by an anonymous dragon, but I ended up rewri...

What's going on?

I am hard at work rewriting most of the massage parlor scene, which was initially guestwritten by an anonymous dragon. At the current pace, the update will hit around Thursday, perhaps even Friday.

It will contain a bunch of content, so much in fact, that I am considering splitting it into two, and releasing the two parts separately. I'll make this call around Tuesday, depending on how far I've progre...

Update status

Varanar, Afternoon Three is scaffolded for about 70%. Tomorrow, I hope to finish the remainder of programming work for it, so I can start rewriting text. You can find a sloppy overview of my work below, although I won't explain my weird and insane scribblings.

This was a pretty complex scene to scaffold, with a bunch of unique programmatical challenges that I had not yet encountered while making the game. A bunch of the things I did t...

Massage parlor scene tree preview

TinkeringTurian post Massage parlor scene tree preview from patreon

This is a preliminary look at what the massage parlor will have to offer. You won't be able to discern everything going on just by looking at this, but it'll give you some hint of what's to come. Everything shown here is subject to change. Anyway, I'll be scaffolding this for the coming few days, at least. I hope your interests are piqued. See you later!

Patreon nonsense and other fun things

Patreon's done some weird things this week. Apparently they moved banks or something, and a lot of people got their payments declined and mails were sent or something, but now everything is relatively fine.

Most payments have gone through.  A few people are still marked as declined, but luckily no longer the one-third it was a few days ago. Check your email if you haven't since the start of the ...

Sabre is live

Update 2.31 (Sabre), better known as the Varanar, Noon Three, Part Two update, is now live. It contains about ten thousand words of new content (most of which is pretty darn lewd), and that's not counting all the new items and their descriptions and usage-popups.

In the second half of Varanar, Noon Three, the kobold will be visiting the grand avenue of Varanar. A store in it, to be more precise. A store ran by a drago...

What's going on?

It's hot as fuck. I hate the current weather. Despite that, the update (Varanar, Noon Three, Part Two) is coming along nicely. Without items, I figure I'll be done near the end of the weekend. That leaves a day or two-three to work on objects, and after that I'll be ready for release!

My current estimate for the next update is Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Probably Wednesday. If the temperatures sta...

All the scaffolding is complete. Writing begins tomorrow. First, I'll try to get most of the scene itself done, then I will work on adding a bunch of new items. New potions, dragon-tier patron requested items, new miscellaneous stuff, new armor, new weapons, a bit of everything.

If you've spent all of your money thus far, no worries. There'll be an opportunity to make more at...

Devweek progress

Devweek is going pretty well. The compiler's complete and the theme generator is operational. The loading system has been slightly altered to work with the new compiled files, and everything seems to be working in aStory, aPreview and the main game.

Basically, this means I've reached the two objectives I set out to accomplish, slightly ahead of schedule. I will use the remaining development time (until View Post

The coming week

Will be a programming week, as decided by Human-tier patrons and up. This means I will spend a week developing the code that runs Kobold Adventure, instead of writing scenes. After this week is over (let's say next week Wednesday), I will continue work on Varanar, Noon Two (part two).

In this programming week, I will be focussing on two main objectives. First off, I will be writing a compiler for Kobold Adventure, whi...

View Post

What next?

Simple choice. Either I program things to make Kobold Adventure work better, or I add more content. I'll ultimately end up doing development week at some point anyway, since it needs to be done. It can be delayed until after Afternoon Three at the very latest.

Perhaps it would be best to wait until after Noon Three is fully done, and then do programming week plus Afternoon Three, sinc...

Low Energy is live

Update 2.25 (Low Energy), better known as the Varanar, Noon Three (part one) update, is now live. It contains a visit to a kobold soup kitchen in Varanar. Things might go better than expected, unless you're too rich to belong. Scene tree can be found below.

I'm going to be honest with you guys, this is probably the smallest major Kobold Adventure update in recent history. Roughly five thousand words, far less than I w...

Update status

This week has been pretty rough. A server for a thing I helped set up was breaking in a bunch of different ways, and I was concripted to help fix it while the server's owner went on a cruise (quite literally). That was pretty stressful, and it took way more time than it should have. Luckily, thanks to my help, the development team and I have managed to stabilize it after many painful and frustrating hours.

Still, I'm glad to ...

I need two species

The top two will be selected. They will be used in Varanar, Noon Three. Their exact purpose remains a mystery, for now. I will choose which race fits which role best, once the two have been chosen. All I can say about the characters in question is that they will be male and anthromorphic.

Remember that you can choose multiple options in almost every poll I make, including this one! If there is a tie in the top three, I will select the...

The decision

I have decided that I will be working on Varanar, Noon Three first. Many different reasons have factored into this decision. Let's go through these one at a time.

First and foremost, I've already planned out Noon Three, allowing me to
   implement it at little faster than Afternoon Two of Enslavement.

Secondly, since there'll be a new shop in Noon Three, I can add some

What's going on?

Howdy, boys. Today, I've fixed over one hundred typos, errors and mistakes in terms of grammar and spelling, courtesy of an emailing benefactor who spotted the majority of them. There's probably still a billion faults left, so be sure to keep looking for them, and to tell me when you spot anything out of the ordinary!

The poll, as some of you might have noticed, has just ended in a View Post

What next?

The usual routine. Pick whatever you'd like to see the most.  Forest > Varanar'll get really fun if I get to spend two consecutive updates on it. Varanar itself has some interesting content planned, some of which is already written.

Home > Varanar is pretty meh. Breeding Farm Breakin will have the first minigame. Programming week'll be superloading (compiled loading), theme generation, theme disabling and theme darkening. The rest is a surprise!

I'm pretty darn sick

My head hurts, I'm sneezing a lot, my nose is blocked, my throat is aching and I'm having a hard time focussing on things. Despite all of this, I'm trying my hardest to continue work on Kobold Adventure.

I'd set my eyes on a Wednesday release for the new update, but if I keep feeling this bad, I may have to delay it until Friday or even Sunday (making this another two-week update, something I hope I can avoid).

Pick whichever you like best. This will determine the appearance, part of the backstory and the behavior of a male character yet to be announced that will be featured in Enslavement, Noon Two, part two, and will be the focus of one of the bad ends Enslavement, Noon Two can result in.

Note that the eagle will have a humanoid groin.

Update on Sunday

While this is within the expected timeframe for release (Friday-Sunday), I apologize for it being on the later end of the expectations.

What exactly it is, I'll let you know on release day.
