AoA - Progress Report (12)

Sorry for the delay guys. Seems like I can't make the release this month after all. AoA's new voice actress had recently moved to a new place and is still in the midst of setting up. I'd like to wait for her to export her recordings for this release among the few things below.

I can't say I've done much work myself. Things are not done so basically I've been running back and forth between:

  • Testing out credits screen.
  • Creating a higher res game over animation for "Give Up" on losing the round. This might need a new animation player instance to be created.
  • BGM making and inspiration hunting.
  • Coordinating with voice actress.

At other times I waste precious time staring into the depths that is GMStudio

Here's what I'm hoping to bring in for the next release:

  1. New voice set.
  2. Balance enemy spawn rates to not overwhelm player.
  3. The previously discussed passive that grants buff/debuff to player for sex.
  4. BGM.

Until then, I'll be holding off this release for a while. Looks like my weekend will be all about development.

:(

  1. Is there any plan for adding the option to change the voice set or volume in future? It's good to hear the news of upcoming new voice, but I also like the current voice set.

    1. Right now the voice volume is lumped together as SFX. I can look into splitting voice into its own category and volume control.

      Unfortunate the newer voice set will replace the current. Fortunately they will sound very similar as recordings are based off the initial set. Look forward to it!

  2. Awesome game so far, will definitely buy it. Two things I would like to suggest are:

    1. Make clothing or armor a mechanic of the game. Perhaps providing resistance or making you hardwr to knock down. Having your dress regenerate magically everytime you get up is a bit weird. You should have to collect new armor/clothes or run around naked.

    2. Rape should definitely be a mechanic, the perk you suggested looks like it will add to this but I would really like to see it take a bigger role. Perhaps it takes a specific amount of stamina to break free and stamina will regenerate slowly during? Also it seems like being raped should have a negative effect on you and could potentially "ko" you if you take too much.

    Keep up the awesome work though.

    1. Hey Unknown,

      1. Naked and about might be doable (clothing) but armor and the likes would require a whole equipment/inventory system though. Then on top of that, a something to handle resistance to stamina damage.

      2. Actually the initial plan was to be different from the many games that give in-game sex/rape a negative effect. AoA sat on the fence quite a while, until I decided to let players choose the effects with the sex passive/perk. Having other ways to gameover (via a "KO") might be confusing and abrupt, requiring explanation (bad design).

      I'll keep these noted. As of now I can't add anymore to my plate. :(
      I'll need to adddress these individually in update posts if I decided to add them.

      Thanks for the many feedbacks. I owe ya big time.

    1. Hey GoGo,

      Thanks for keeping up with my updates.

      Sorry, work has been grueling these past weeks that I hit the bunk once I get back. Been too tired to think up codes that I've only been working on newer animations. I'll put some pictures up showing the progress.

      As for release, I will try to have it out as soon as possible.

    1. Chill your tits, it's not like they didn't leave an explanation 3 days prior to your comment. On top of that, this game is FREE and I'm pretty sure there's no Patreon to feed him money either.
