New Animations Underway

While the search for a coder to finish the movement system continues, I'm returning my energy to the artwork and animations. I'm also working to bring in a lot more mainstream x-rated content into the game, with NPC interactions in communities Ayla discovers along her travels. This doggystyle animation is the launching point ...

Barnacle plant update

The barnacle plant enemies for the cave are almost ready to bring into the game. I had lost a lot of motivation to get this one ready because we've had so many problems getting the movement resolved. Well, I finally changed strategies and I'm hiring a professional freelance coder to fix the remaining problems. If that goes we...

CS_Alpha_1.2.0

The next build is FINALLY here! This one took a very long time to come together because we had to completely overhaul the movement system. It's not really done, but after all the hassles and challenges we've been hitting I'm looking towards simplifying the movement and gameplay a lot. I don't want to, not really, but being ne...

Still working away...

I haven't vanished, it's just not much fun posting about how things are still coming along slowly for like the fourth time in a row. There are a few bugs in the movement that have proven harder for the guys to tackle, for reasons that are entirely beyond me since my coding attempts weren't spectacular. In a few more days I'm ...

Cave art

The poll results for Ayla’s first animated sex scene are clear! working on that now. 

First poll of 2022!

What's Ayla's first Animated sex scene going to be? This is going to be for a stage in the that hasn't been built yet, but it's coming up next. There will be a follow-up poll after this one to determine which NPC will be used for the scene. It's going to be a short animated clip, potentially a loop.

Poll ends this Satu...

Dialogue Concept Art

You know, something like this plus some scrolling and responses choices. Possibly will fully painting character busts.

Ancient Priest Character Design

The first NPC design is finished. I haven't created the dialogue window yet but that's one of the next steps to take. This guy is basically here to help drop some exposition, familiarize players with the NPC interaction options, and point Ayla the right direction to get back out of the cave.

First Sketches of the Old Mage

So in the cave area Ayla is going to have to find the way through it, and this old fella is going to be waiting by the exit to kind of guide her out. Not exactly guide, per se, but show that you've actually found the exit. And the idea is that he's been waiting there for a very, VERY long time. It's also going to be the first...

Cretaceous Seas plans for Spring 2022

Today I hired a voice actress for Ayla, which will massively bump up the audio experience. I'm working towards making that VERY worth the time by planning out the NPC interactions for the upcoming stages.

On that same note, without trying to overreach, I'm getting some NPC interactions written for sexy times.

2022 Studio ambitions

This is a duplicate poll from one I posted on Deviantart last night. I have a lot of ambitious ideas for the studio moving into the new year and this is basically an unofficial way to get feedback on some of them before moving forward. Thanks!

Fire test footage

The patreon page now officially updated to only focus on the game development. The tiers have been adjusted according to reflect that, with as few changes as possible other than the removal of the comics. Jungle Dangers will continue to be available through the Secret Stash gumroad store.

This little fire clip does sho...

Annnnnnnd Gulp!

And that’s why you have to slow down for tight corners, Ayla.

Insert chomping bitey noises here. 

Fire

I'm feeling some end of year burn out. Some personal stuff has been overwhelming recently and it's hard to feel my head in the game. Doing some fire effects helped me break out of it. I'd post a gif but my computer isn't being so helpful with video capture right now.

Controls are almost done but still touchy. Updates ...

Cave Section progress

I'm back in the cave working on some set dressing and integrating the creature designs. 

Page 2

This is the start where things go different from the source animation and start down the path I'd originally envisioned. Pretty fun getting a new take on it.

Jungle Dangers #17, Page 1

Hey guys, we're running behind with the comic again this month but the colorist assures me he'll be able to get everything wrapped up before the new year. We're also still slowly moving forward on the new controls for the game but hit some slow downs even before the holiday season really started. There's not much left to do f...

Walk Cycle Draft (in color)

We're still getting the new motion system integrated into the game and won't have a new push ready yet. I'm happy to report that it's doing the intended job of fixing the various motion bugs and will also give us a chance to introduce new movements/actions more easily. Here are some of the changes we're working on for it.

Jungle Dangers 16

This month we had a guest artist come in and experiment with creating a 3d scene, finished with traditional colors over the 3d rendered lines. Thanks very much to KO _CGI for contributing these pages! He's also been helping on the game's coding team so I'm happy to get the chance for him to show off his contribution to the wo...

Walk Cycle Draft

The walk I had in mind for Ayla is closer to the slower, more sensual version on the right (32 frames. It actually had an even more exaggerated hip swing and slightly more deliberation on each step but once I'd animated that out it became clear it wouldn't work for the needs of the game, which needs a very consistent walking ...

Walk Cycle Starting

Someone recently showed me a walk cycle they're working on and commented that my animation work "made it look easy." As complemented as I was by that, it's not entirely so accurate. I still have to go through the same tedious steps as anyone, I just have a little more practice.

I've had a number of requests to give Ayl...

Last Days of Summer

This is coming a little late, seeing as we're pretty well into Autumnal weather already, but I felt like Ayla needed one last day at the beach before ending the season. This pinup was a commission from the game's Kickstarter and I wanted to share it now since we won't have an update on the game ready this week.

We're w...

Ayla enjoying some cowgirl riding

Normally Ayla doesn't have the best of luck, but she's getting lucky this time.

Plant Concept Animation Test

Here's an early look into how the plant creature will attack, and a VERY rough concept for the vore scene. Ayla will definitely do a little struggling in the stomach pouch before the paralyzing digestive enzymes do their work and she can't fight back. I wanted to focus on the attack and catch parts of the animation so those s...

Plant creature concept art

The cave are of the game is going to be home to some run creatures, including this barnacle-like plant which will be attached to the cave ceiling. It's probably not going to be part of the public demo but I wanted to at least get some design work down for it. The attachment part of the creature won't be animated, basically be...

Patreon Build - CS_Alpha_1.0.3

Skip this download if you are at the higher tiers and are looking for the experimental builds, this is just below that.

Biggest update here is that we've added the start for this level's first plant creature and also the first part of the cave system, which doesn't currently have anything in it. Note to the wise: If yo...
