Possible Animated Bits



      Alright, been an experimental week for the game. First up, Lucy and Lucas have had their expressions altered.

Originally, I made the faces pretty much the same for both sexes, mainly to keep the numbers associated with them the same for both. However, this neutralized both of them. I ended up editing them so that Lucas keeps a more stoic face for the most part, and Lucy has slightly more exaggerated facial changes.This is to better emphasize the player gender, so the faces better fit what somebody of their sex might react like.

Now, something else I have been curious about. Animations in the old Collars were pretty much out of the question. Buuuuuuuuut with the new Collars, it is a possibility. While this would be cool to add to the game, it also adds a bunch of image files. So, the main question is: Is the possibly bigger size add-on worth the visual pleasure of animated bits? To clarify, the actual scenes might not be animated, but internal views will be. I was planning on making the bits to flow with the actual scene. For example, teasing the player with the tip will be more visually apparent and add to the detail of the scene with the internal bits. I've come up with an example of how this will look with a cumming scene. If this is something that would be worth it, I will be editing the parts up and making it better for in-game use.


With this in mind, let me know what you all think of this.

  1. First I have to say I definitely love the facial changes. They feel a love more alive, or rather it gives each sex a bit of personality to them that the other doesn't have.

    As for the animations, that sounds like a cool idea if you can get it to work and if you don't mind the extra work put into making it. My one concern is the juxtaposition of a main static image then having an animated portrayal of the described action right next to it might seem a bit.... Off. I'm seen the animated X-ray angle done before in eroge, but using alongside fully animated sex scenes so that the x-ray and the scene would be in synch.

    Now personally I'm always a fan of animation, and x-rays are a plus, I guess I would just need an example of a sex scene with the animation added before I could really judge how well it works. Unless I'm completely misunderstanding... which is entirely possible.

    1. The plan is to have it switch to the internal view by itself for a brief moment, and then back to the actual scene being played.

    2. Ah! Yeah I could see that working out pretty well.

  2. the facial changes will add variety and the animations couldnt play on a side area of the scene or a toggle them on or off at will if the player wants instead of a ramdon pop here it is, it would be nice for what i remember from other games, keep up the good work the previous game was fun and this may prove to have even more fun

    1. It should be, with how much less buggy it will be thanks to actual planning.

  3. Well, even if you don't implement the full body/scene animation now, leave the possibility to implement it later, so you can have both resourses without the need of another game.

  4. I think its a great idea and the longer download time really isn't that mush of a problem, for me at least.

  5. The facial changes are definitely great! As for the animations... I'm not sure if a massive RPG Maker game will have any greater effect than a longer download time. However, it'd definitely be an ass and a half on your end to implement. In this case I'd say maybe save it for the sequel, but if you're sure you really wouldn't mind it, go for it.

  6. Animated scenes would be neat, but, go with what you feel you can do, don't stress yourself out.

    1. These are updates for the new game. The Collars that we downloaded previously is an abandoned project. These updates are reguarding the pseudo Sequel to collars, being built by a reformed team with more experience from the get go, building from the ground up.

    3. I'm an aspiring game developer myself so I know how time consuming it can be to answer questions all the time, or to feel bad about not being able to answer them, so I thought I'd lend a hand.

      Besides I also work as a moderator for a 100K sub youtuber, answering questions has become second nature at this point. So long as I can help the. I'm glad to lend a hand.

  10. I'd suggest maybe cribbing some animation ideas from violated heroine, but also, maybe some more esoteric sort of art that's more abstract and floaty/fun than textbook anatomy. ((Though, I enjoy textbook anatomy for X-rays myself. ))

    Example being http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=54479669 or http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=medium&illust_id=61388662 which are both artists that have galories full of this sort of thing.

    Just sharing those links as possible inspiration more than anything.

  11. bit of a late comment but i think that unless the difference is gonna triple the game's size most people probably won't care. but if you want to cover all bases why not have the animation pack be a separate file?
