2020-08-14 12:47:57 +0000 UTC View PostOkay! As I mentioned in a previous post, I had something of a very rare case of writer's block while working on this. Otherwise it would have been out days ago. Even as it is, it's technically been done for a couple of days, but still needed an editing pass. And, since my PC has been busing rendering scenes for Haven's Port, ...

First...let me introduce you to Captain Nyra! She's a new Major Character of Haven's Port, who will be involved with 'tiering up' to the next reputation level. Here she's seen in her 'relaxed' outfit, not in her proper Pirate's Attire...but I decided to show that as it shows off her ink better ;-). She'll also be the source o...

Okay! First, let me apologize for being a silent for a bit after the release of Chastity Quest Build 6. In an effort to cure some of the building issues with both rendering for Heaven's Port and the stability of the Chastity Quest Skyrim build, I decided to do a reinstall of Windows 10. There were some fairly serious signs th...

Alright! So, as I'm writing this, the game is uploading. Actually, it's been uploading for a bit. I finished it right around midnight...it's just that the uploading process, particularly for the Web version, is somewhat long. Either way, I pretty much hit the nail on the head for how long the extra delays were going to be... ...

Ugh. This week has been a series of 'are you fucking kidding me' moments, I swear. Case in point, this was originally going to be posted several hours ago, only to discover that the whole Patreon site was down -_-.
Anyway, as evidenced by the fact that this isn't a release post...the build isn't quite done yet. The goo...
Alright, folks! Good news/bad news time. First off, the good news. That good news being that I've got all the assets captured and edited for the first 8 scenes of the new build. And, if all goes well, I expect to have the majority of them actually implemented by the time I crash tomorrow morning. So, yay for that, and also ya...

2020-07-23 14:15:05 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, so...a few posts ago, I think? Something like that anyway. I mentioned that I'm stuck on a daywalker schedule for a bit.

In short: I have...

Well, I almost made it? To be honest, I should have made it well before midnight, but I ran into two issues. First, was that there were a LOT more bugs than expected. That wasn't on account of the code of this build being particularly sloppy, but rather that I kept finding stuff that had slipped t...

Alright, so...I mentioned in the story update yesterday that I would update everyone on Haven's Port today. Unfortunately, the news is frustrating, to say the least.
