Ah, telepathy in cartoons. Funny stuff.
Anyway, as you can imagine, not *too* much new to talk about. I mean it got released!
Though since release I've patched a few bugs and I've a few more to go...even some bugs I thought I'd squashed.
Still, I can talk a bit about what to expect going ahead.
CG's
First, there's still a few still images I'd like ...

Aaand here's Mira Nova! Sorry about the slight delay but I'm sure you can grokk why.
This is actually Febuary's $10 gift. March's I'm going to be combining with April's and it's a little something-something I think I can add to a few months on the trot to eventually push out...

Folks lets get right down to business.
The Demo's Here.
Not sure I can link to it here because of DA RULEZ but you can find the link in the $1+ tier posts, or else go to my other haunts or hypnohub to find a link.
Thanks for all your support everyone, couldn't have reached this milestone without you and your support.

Goddamn eyebrows.
Alright, so I've got one more CG I want to add to this and a last, thorough bugcheck before I throw it out to the wolves. If anyone spots or has spotted anything, do send me a message with a screenshot of the issue either here or on Discord and I'll sort it.
I will say the last two weeks have certainly been a learning experience when it comes to how complicated cg'...

4 slots, with 2 OC's max! £25 a pop, minus however much you're subscribed for if you've been a patron for over a month! First come first serve!
The rest of the rules you probably know (not too OP, etc.), but as a refresher, you'll be getting a drone image, the drone'll be able to become your Housedrone in Thrallworks as it becomes avai...

And here we have the 4 commission slots for the Febuary Exchange!
Ruby Rose from RWBY, Skyla from Pokemon, Alyx Vance from Half Life and an OC Orc, Shuumi!
I'll be opening up the next round of the Exchange come the 11th publicly, though I'll make it the 10th for y'all here. Rules'll be the same, no universe-conquering characters, female-only, no Samus/Major Kusanagi, etc. etc.
Not much in the way of new art come this latest update, a lot of the last fortnight has been about adding features, making things more accessible, dotting i's and crossing t's.
I mean, I did spend that fair amount of time on that image I posted a few days ago before realizing I can't use that for the demo. A bummer, but I'm sure I can at least use a still from it.
Anyway, as for wha...

In organizing things for the game, I realized that I never actually made a corresponding project file for the Domine entry, so...here it is!
Overall I'd say, even for an early drawing of mine, I really liked how Artemis came together.
We may be doing a Labourer Set later on this month. There's something I want to do before then though....
Enjoy!

So while I'm working through images and code to get the demo in a good shape to ship in, I thought I'd show you something that I worked on that I can't currently add, but will be able to add in the future as we transition into Unity!
A nice lil' floaty L-D19, successfully orientated.
As to why this can't be added into Ren'Py, it's a matter of video-masks and alpha channels. There's ...

Man we are on a real drone binge these days huh?
Here's one from the patreon votes, Mandy from Totally spies!
I feel now that we're going to be doing regular drone updates with the drone exchange, the next patreon poll might be for something a little different. Maybe a CYOA? Might make a $2 poll about it.

Sorry on the lateness of this poll, its been a busy time. Anyway I won't dither longer...

Anyway, that's all the exchange slots done! Had a bunch of fun with these and advanced my ideas on drones a little. I think we'll make this a monthly regular- I'm going to re-open slots again soon, though only allowing 1 OC.
Also, for you $2+ people, I'll be showing you an alt-scheme for each of these.

Hey ho all, time for another update!
Work continues apace on the game, I'd say I'm around 2/3 days from updating all the systems of the various scenes together so they can flow together cohesively, so look forward to that. For a screenshot of what I consider to be one of the more major changes:

Another OC here. Half the entries were OC's! Crazy. I think much like with Thrallopedia entries I might have to put a limit of 1 OC per 4 Drone Exchanges, or something. Jerrica here is also the tallest of our drones so far at a mean 6ft.
Anyway, we got another Gladiator bout in discord tomorrow, a Thrallworks update on Thurs, and then a $10 fireside chat coming up on Friday, so there's pl...

Another Drone for the exchange; this one an OC!
Yes OC's will be available in the exchange too (well, so long as the OC creator wishes it). Obviously this has a limited novelty for most people compared to what'd be regarded as more 'celebrity' drones, but all that means is that perhaps these ones take up a different section. Guess we'll see eh?
Anyway, more stuff to come ...

As before, we'll give this poll a week, then the winner will get plonked on the drone-list and the remaining 3 will go to the $10 peeps for a voteio.
So by all means...commence!

Hi all!
So, during the festive season (where those Terry's Chocolate Orange pieces were sadly absent for a change), I was thinking that as we move into the demo getting done and the work beyond that, it would be good to start getting regular updates on the Thrallworks game specifically as we progress through the year.
The Orientations had little 'showable' additional art to...

So, I reckon it's about time we find out what Keller can spend his company credit on.
In Thrallworks, you're an Instructor. And an Instructor gets a lump sum of company credit to do with as they please at the start of each project, as well as a certain amount of 'bonus' credit depending on how good of a job they did with the last project to go out the door.
If a project fails, new m...
