BtS: BBN, the Journey so far, and what's next

It's been almost two years since I started work on Bound by Night in January 2021. Two years! Now, with the release of Chapter 13 and the conclusion of Act 1, I thought folks might be interested in a little...

Progress Update (Almost there) and Behind the Scenes

Alrighty! I've been hard at it the last 48 hours but want to give everyone a quick status update. But, I'll get straight to the point:  images are 99.9% finished, so next up is running all the images through post (takes 10 minut...

Sneak Peek: Chapter 13 (NSFW)

We're finally there, folks. I've been working on the NSFW images this week and wanted to share a few of them with you here before the weekend kicks off.

End of Month Update (Oct. 22) and Sneak Peek: Build 0.10

Alright everyone, here we are at the end of another month.

To get straight to the point, this isn't quite ready for release yet. The good news is it is actually very close. I have about 200 lines left of script that need images...

Update and Sneak Peek: Chapter 13 (Build 0.10)

Happy Friday!

I wanted to share some of the renders I've made this week and give you a quick update. Obviously, progress continues and I currently have 286 lines of script left that need images. The caveat to that is there are ...

Sneak Peek: Mayhew's Skylounge - Build 0.10 (SFW)

In previous sneak peeks, we saw some additional shots in Mayhew's office and new shots from his gallery. Today, I've begun work on the last of the environments for this next update, Mayhew's skylounge overlooking the city.

As a...

Sneak Peak: Build 0.10 (SFW)

Progress continues on this set of renders and I'm really happy with how they're turning out. What do the pieces mean to Mayhew? Will any of it change your thoughts about him (for better or worse)?

Have a great weekend!

Sneak Peek - Chapter 13 (SFW)

Hey all! I'm finally out of Mayhew's office and onto the next environment.

I'm going to share some more of these with you in the next week but here's a few of what rendered last night. I'm really happy with this set and every p...

End of Month Update (September 2022)

It's that time again! So, what's going on with BBN?

Long and the short of it is this month has been spent entirely plugging away at renders for this next update, though I've also circulated the first draft of the script to a co...

This announcement took me by su...

Sneak Peek: Build 0.10 (SFW)

Hi everyone. I hope you had a great weekend.

I'm making some good progress on renders for the new content and thought I'd share a couple shots of Alex talking with Mayhew immediately after the tour. They're not going to spend t...

Sneak Peek: Build 0.10 (NSFW)

As you may recall from the last update, much of August was spent writing the script and dialogue for Build 0.10, or what will be Chapter 13. That is mostly complete and I've been spending the last week working on renders. Today is th...

Sneak Peek: Build 0.10 (SFW-ish)

As I mentioned in August's end-of-month update, I'm switching from writing back to renders and this is one of the renders that ran last night, which is part of finishing up that scene with Ronan at the end of Chapter 12. His expressi...

End of Month Update (August 2022)

Hey everyone. It's getting to be that time again, so here's another general progress update.

As you know, Build 0.9 went out to Patrons via early access on July 31 and went open to the public a couple days ago. In addition to t...

Chapter 13 - Second Location Teaser (and request)

Hey everyone. This location is still a work in progress (which leads to my request), but this is Mayhew's personal gallery for his collection. 

I'm still looking for a few pieces/props to place in the center, but I've also...

Progress Update on Build 0.10

Hi everyone. I wanted to give you a quick update on how things are going with the next update.

I think I'm about 60% finished with the writing. This has been an interesting bit to write as I really only have two personalities...

Poll: What do you think of the Gallery? (NSFW Image in Content)

Maybe you noticed in Build 0.9a I introduced the beginning of a Gallery, showing a collection of images you've seen earlier in the game. If you didn't notice, well now I'm telling you! You can access it via the Main Menu.

What's next after 0.9?

I won't include any spoilers in this post, but hopefully all the patrons by now have the latest build "in hand", as that will help the following make a little more sense.

We are now coming towards the end of Act 1. Alex has lea...

Is it getting hot in here, or is it just me? Work continues on wrapping up Build 0.9, and here is a sneak peek of some of the VERY NSFW images I'm working on.

Teaser Image

I've been working hard on getting these images done for the last part of the 0.9 build... and getting hard while doing them. I won't lie; it's been hard, I mean, difficult to concentrate. But tomorrow, after I've had a chanc...
