Progress Update- March!
Development is going well! …but my communication is suffering. To make it doable for today, I’m just gonna give a quick summary of where things are at.

Progress Update- inflation, customization, and more
I missed a couple posts. It feels so unproductive to spend time writing recaps instead of just coding. But it’s super important to me that people get to know what’s up. I'm sorry, I need to not slack on these >.<’If you missed the streams, VODS are here. ('Videos' tab at the top.)So, what’s being worked on?Fluids and inflationThe abstract tanks from before are now wired up as body parts, which can play predetermined animations...
Quick progress update: done with fluids code?
Sorry for the hasty post. It's my bed time, so I'm gonna throw out the quick hits for now:Pressure:After researching other games' fluid mechanics a little, I simplified to using relative pressure between containers to determine how fluids flow. A container with a higher pressure will output into connected containers (or pipes) with lower pressure. The connections have data allowing input/output at different rates.Does it work?Here'...
Small reminder for newer patrons
This is just a quick catchup for new or returning people!The game (SFH3) is in the middle of a big-ass update that's taken a long time. The latest stable Tier 2 patron build is still version 0.37.I released a buggy WIP version a while ago- version 0.38, but honestly most of the code in that WIP version has been completely replaced, and I can't recommend it unless you're cool with glitches galore.If you're a Tier 2 patron, you shou...
Progress update- fluid tanks and pipes
OKAY. SO. Modular fluid storage and transfer is operational! It's composed of a few parts: Tanks. They store fluid. These can be body parts (e.g. womb), literal tanks, toys with liquid storage, etc. Ports. They transfer fluid in/out of a tank (e.g. the stomach can input/output through the mouth or da bum). There can be any number of them on a tank. They can be dynamically linked and un-linked based on the situation. Pipes. Technically, these ...
Minor progress update.
Small quick post time. It's late, and honestly this week, fuck-all happened. I'm not sure why but it was wayy harder to do this stuff than I thought. My goals this week were pretty ambitious too.They were:Finish particles, emitters, and collisions code.So close. I finished particle and emitter code, as far as I can tell. Fluids make splashies when they hit stuff, which sounds small but is actually pretty important visually to stop glitchi...
Progress Update- rendering and particles
If you missed the streams, VODS are here. ('Videos' tab at the top.)What’s being worked on?Blue indicates progress since last time.The main lines of work were mostly untouched. That’s because the particles/rendering side quest took most of my time. I mean, it was vital for progress, but I wasn’t expecting to have to delve so hard into it. :’(So this week, I tried setting some short term goals. They were: Finish the rendering/depth...
Progress update- back to work!
Short, simple post today. Thursday is progress update day, and I keep missing it. So I'm just writing this out as quickly as possible to make sure it's done, then I'm gonna coordinate with my writer to get a more stable schedule going next week.I'll answer questions and give y'all a more complete picture of where the update is at, and what's left to be done, in the next post!If you missed the streams, VODS are here.

Situation update
Hey guys, so I've been in a deeply stressful situation for the past couple weeks and haven't been present anywhere online as a result. I was already planning some holiday time and so I got as much done beforehand as possible, figuring I could keep y'all updated throughout. I didn't foresee the current IRL nightmare that's been keeping me from making updates and stuff.I've kinda forgotten what was supposed to be the last pr...
