Sir Gary Bummer

Update #119 Vacate the premises!

Weewooweewoo! That's the fire alarm! Run! Run for your lives! Run for all you hold dear, throw everything else in the fire's way to impede it! Yes, that's how fires works, trust me! I have a PHD in pyrology!

... I wrote pyrology as a joke, but upon looking the term up it actually exists. Huh. Anyway.

Kinda funny h...

Update #118 The Heap of Hedonism

Hey there, nice man. Geddit? Cuz it's a lil' bit like hedonism? No? That bad, huh? No, no. There's no need to show me the way out, I can find it just fine myself, thank you very much.

Didn't entirely finish scene 9, but I should get it done tomorrow. And here I was hoping I'd have gotten partway through scene 10 already...

Update #117 Spice-O-Meter

Gary here, Gary there, Gary go everywhere! Woo!

Oh, hello there. Just practicing making an intro song. For what? I dunno, I just wanted an intro song. Maybe I can play it when I walk into a room or something. Just need to hire a goblin with a boombox to follow me around.

Haven't quite finished scene 8, but I'll g...

Update #116 A convergence of demons

Diabolical pleasantries to all.

Diabolical is a damn fine word, real fancy. Too bad I couldn't think of an equivalent to greetings that start with a D to make it... uh... what's the word again? A-something... Alliteration! That's it! Yeah, couldn't make it alliterative.

Brain is a bit mushier today than usual, if ...

4k Extras #29 Too spicy for Master's eyes

Hey, hey, and hello!

Oh, how unfortunate. Ruru's taken all these fantastic photos but she can't share them with her Master. What's a poor demon to do?

Well, I suppose sharing them on Patreon instead seems like a good idea. Does that mean this set is canon? I mean, sure. Have there been previous sets that could be...

Update #115 You can spell title without thought

Hey, hey, hey! Careful with that! That's a family heirloom that is. Why that SSD contains my grandfathers entire porn collection you know, including some weird shit he made himself.

That's how I imagine having descendants would be for me. Which is as good a reason as any to not have any.

I've finished scene 6, I t...

Update #114 Live confused, die profuse

Hey! Nice music? Sweet! Would you wanna come join a bible discussion?

If you're confused by the intro, then you're feeling the exact same thing I did yesterday when some bloke crossed the street and uttered those words at me. I wasn't even listening to music, I just had my headphones on to ensure that no one talks to me...

Update #113 All your title are belong to us

Spicy salutations, dear supreme and salacious senators.

Scene 5 is not done, unfortunately. Without going into details, there's been a bit of a situation in the family, and both my sleep and motivation have been somewhat impacted. Still working on the game every day, just not as efficiently.

I initially did go in...

Update #112 To the moon!

Hello (hello hello), is there anybody out there? Just nod if you can shear me. Is there anybody home? -Excerpt from Uncomfortably Woolly.

Since I feel like I can't use a 112 what's your emergency joke today since I half-did that last week, you get this travesty instead. Guess I'll have to wait until Update #911...

4k Extras #28 Emo in Neon

Howdy!

About time for another 4k special. I've been thinking about what Saranhil would look like with an emo/goth/punk vibe, so I gave her a little makeover. Did Sveida and Ruru while I was at it and Zavnessos only needed some minor additions to fit in as well.

Gotta confess, my understanding of fashion, especiall...

Update #111 Musing on zesty pizzas

Hello? Is this 911? No? Oh, then I dialed the wrong number, sorry. What? The gunfire in the background? Oh, don't worry about that. I was actually calling about an abscess on my toe. Hello? Helloo? Did they hang up on me? Just like that? How rude. Who has a number like 111 anyway? Must be some real muppet.

...

Huh...

Update #110 Polluted pollitics

Pollite hello's!

...

Look, I didn't know how to start an update that talks about polls, and that's what I came up with. Don't blame me, blame the system that raised me.

Moving on. I didn't actually put an ending to the popularity contest, but as of now Saranhil is in the lead by a single vote, which I will c...

Poll #29 An addition to the spice rack

Yo!

I keep forgetting to mention the last popularity poll in my weekly updates. Surely I'll remember to do so this week! Surely...

Anyway, I figured there's room for another spicy scene in the next episode. And so I'd like you, the Senate of Pointy Ears, to appoint which lucky gal is to be seasoned.

There's ...

Update #109 Our goths are in another burg!

Hallå eller?

If someone greets you like that you can immediately conclude two things: they're named Glenn, and they were born with the very same curse that Tanathil was given.

Rendering has begun, and the very first scene is finished. I've also started setting up the poses for the second scene. So progress has be...

Update #108 Welcome to jellytown

Population: Everyone but me. Heh.

Oh, also. Hello!

Bit of an IRL pic today. That's where I've been writing for this past week. If the picture induces jealousy, well I won't lie. It's warranted.

What the picture doesn't show are ducks and their ducklings swimming by, a swan couple honking in the distance, the...

Update #107 Only smart people can see the image

Tapetitapetitapetitapetitaptaptap- Oh, hey! Didn't see you there. All busy with writing, you see.

Yes, that's a typewriter procured purely for this intro. I mean, figuratively procured. Literally procuring it would seem like a waste of time since you can't actually see it, and not really hear it either, unless your audi...

Poll #28 Popularity contest two

Get in! We're doing another popularity vote! This time with multiple choices.

Will this change the outcome of the battle for first place? Will Jhan'draga and Jarlina get a single vote this time? Will someone except Ruru or Saranhil emerge victorious?

...

Yeah, okay, that last one isn't a real question.

Update #106 The Princess is chilling in another tub

It's a me! Gario!

I totally forgot that it was Saturday until just a moment ago. Well, at least I remembered before I went to bed, so here's a little update.

Hope you've been enjoying the new episode!

Been having a pretty chilled out week, doing a bit of reading, some long walks. Well, there were walks until...

4k Extras #27 Cozy and intimate

Hey hey, here's a little set for you!

It's one pose with a few different angles. The more characters that are involved, and the more they're touching, the more you have to fiddle with the details to get it to look all nice and fancy.

Just three characters like this is surprisingly time-consuming.

It's more...

Episode 7 Release

Welp, finished a bit quicker than I thought when I posted the last update. Mostly because I've more or less been working since then.

Been over-consuming caffeine the last two or three days. Maybe more actually, not sure. Gonna wean myself off of that for the next week, take it a little chill while I figure out what the...

Update #105 Goal in sight

Heyo! It's ya boy Gary, bummin' up the joint!

I really don't know what bummin' up the joint is supposed to mean, but it sounds like plausible slang so I just went with it. It could be lighting up a blunt, it could be a homeless person entering a fancy building, it could be being sexually assaulted in prison. Maybe it's ...

Update #104 You see a little silhouetto of a man

Eccentric 'ellos guv'nor.

Did the voice that read things for you in your head change accents mid sentence there? Mine did. He's a rat bastard that one. Can't trust 'im, I always says so, don't I, love?

On a completely different note, given that there's about 52 weeks in a year, we've just about hit the two-year m...

4k Extras #26 On set at the Blue Onsen

Hello, it is I, Gary.

Felt like doing a bathing set, but in a new location. I really like blueish lighting for some reason. Almost as much as I like lighting tinted orangey to make it nice and warm.

I wanted to have a little bit of that ethereal night time feeling, but that's hard to nail. I think the very first ...

Update #103 Fellowship of flow

Hullo, my fellow fellows. Follow me down the path flowing downriver, down to the flowering fields of I think I've run out of words with f's and w's in them. Forward? Eh, doesn't quite fit. Flawed? Now that fits and is meta.

Scene 16 is all done, and I think the animations turned out pretty alright. I feel like ...

Update #102 Last pinch of spice

Steamy greetings, esteemed members of the pointy-eared senate. I estimate the estate of esoteric game-making to be ecstatic.

If you can parse the meaning of that last sentence, you're a better fellow than I.

I'd forgotten how nice it is to not have any deadlines hanging over your neck like a guillotine. So I took ...

Update #101 If you really wanna go

Oh, hi there! Late? Me? No, you've got the wrong guy. I'm Gary.

Did you know Joe Strummer was in a band called The 101ers? No? Well, now you do.

Been listening to a live album of his (Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros, actually): Live at Acton Town Hall. Really enjoying it, it's great even without the context of b...

Update #100 Triple digits baby!

One hundred hallowed hellos upon you this fine and lovely Saturday.

That's almost two years worth of updates, and I still haven't gotten around to making a better name than "Update". I did give up on that quite a while ago to be honest. Still, thought it'd be fun to note.

It's funny, I didn't really have more of a...

Update #99 Helmets & shit

Howlin' howdies! Awoooo!

...

I'm not a furry, I swear.

Scene 13 is doneso, and I've started on scene 14 as well, so we're moving forward. Neato! I love moving forward, it's my favorite direction. That's why I never got the hang of moonwalking. I'm excellent at jaywalking though.

Fun fact about jaywalki...

4k Extras #25 Fireplace Jealousy

Good day!

Dropping a little 4k set where Saranhil gets the short end of the stick. Come to think of it, I guess she's not getting any stick at all.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy. I certainly hope you enjoy this one more than the last one, it was a bit of a disaster admittedly. Well, one has to experiment a little to l...

Update #98 Shady shaders

Hey, you! Yes, you there with the great taste in games and fancy eyeballs. I don't actually know where I was going with this, so I'm just going to quite while I'm ahead.

So, I did finish the scene I was working on, but I didn't get further than that. Been some real annoying crashes. Well, they're not even really crashes...
