Prior poll results, new polls, status update

Hi again. So it’s been a while but so far things have actually gotten better for me in terms of my back. It would seem that I have gotten used to this almost, due to it happening so many times that I now know how best to deal with it. I am by no means 100% yet, but I am far better than I was last post. I added a couple images to the last mini-set; though one is an unused render that has only minor differences. I also have been working towards some content for the hopeful game beta update when rewards go out next week sometime. I still do not want to promise anything, but I am fairly sure I will have something to add; I will not know more until mid weekend sometime. However, I needed to post now to update the polls and I just thought I would mention how things are going. I have a few nice commissions that were done for me by people on deviantart  few weeks ago, but for whatever reason both people in question have basically gone AWOL for two weeks with no real explanation, so they haven’t been posted yet.

As for the polls, last month asked how much story vs sex you prefer in your content; and unsurprisingly most people prefer a balance, with some leaning towards more sex. I think I have tended to lean towards mostly sex in my story sets, with only the first RTL chapter what I would call a balance of story and sex due to the sheer amount of stuff that needed to be set up and/or explained. I will see about working in more story in the future, but with little to no real feedback in general, I have no real choice but to do just what I am doing and hope for the best. (So actual comments would really help.) The other poll asked about clothing in sex scenes, and interestingly most people preferred little to no clothing at all. I actually usually tried to keep character’s clothes on in many cases, which is of course much harder for me; so apparently I don’t really need to keep doing that per se, which I will definitely keep in mind. The new polls are up, the first is from around two years back and asks what kind of player character you prefer in adult games and the second one is also a poll from two years ago, asking your gender. (I am just curious how things have changed in two years, if at all.)

It would also be really great if anyone wanted to leave an actual written comment with either general feedback for me and/or explaining their character preference from that first poll. As I have mentioned, I do take polls into consideration, but I take written comments and such far more seriously. I plan to post again sometime mid-next week with an update regarding my progress on the game beta and whatever else.

Hey. Just a quick update here for assorted reasons. I sent out the Patreon rewards last night, which included one new scene set for the game as well as a few new images for some existing scene sets. It is a little less than I had hoped for, but I still think I should be able to finish the main game around early June as planned. In other, semi-related news; this week has been a complete mess for me and I do not know if I will be able to finish the remaining DA images before next week or not. I have had a ton of crap happen these past few days and a lot of unnecessary stress which makes it hard to work on all this, if I can even find the time. I will do the best that I can; but I think it may get pushed to next week with the mini-set for this month. In other news, the final chapter of RTL is scheduled for a free release here sometime later this month; so check back for that later later on. While you wait for all that, please vote in the polls and do check out my other pages/previous sets if you haven’t already! (There is a freely released sets tab at the top of this page.)

Hi. Here is that update in regard to the state of the game and a few of my other plans as far as upcoming things go. I am going to try and get two new scene sets in the game beta before it gets sent out in a week and a half or so, but I am not sure I will be able to do that and  finish the few new random events I would like to work in. A few more details and specifics of all this will be posted to my Patrons in a bit, but long story short I hope to have the 1.0 of the game more or less done in early June; (so it will be included in the May Patreon rewards message) and that is a conservative estimate. Now, even once it is “done” it will still be in beta for a few months while I work out the stat balancing and fix any bugs/typos and probably continue to add content; so that isn’t a complete finish yet, but all the core content will be in the game, it just might need some tweaking/expanding. Again, this is not a guarantee, but unless something horrible happens I don’t see this taking longer than that to get the base game situated. After that gets done I will likely take a month to recover and then see about getting back to the next story arc.

Next month I plan to do the new DA images, the Patreon mini-set and then use whatever I have remaining to work on the game. The month after that though, (in May) there will be a special Patreon mini-set poll; it will decide the topic of the mini-set for that month as usual but that mini-set will instead be a ten image set with a tiny story attached! That special Patreon poll will be available to appropriate patrons of mine after rewards go out in early may; so if you want to get in on that and/or support my work or see other mini-sets I have done for my Patrons, check out my Patreon page!

March Patreon mini-set preview!

Leave a reply

Hey again. Sorry for the rather late post of this; but assorted factors kept pushing it back. I actually had something else in mind, but for various reasons I benched it for now and made this mini-set instead. I decided to make this a solo set, as I haven’t done one of those in quite a while. It stars Helenya, who has “borrowed” Zayla’s favorite toy and gone outside to play with it (and herself) a bit before anyone catches her. The mini-set is seven images; although one is just a slight edit of the preview below, to make it postable on DA. I think it came out really well and it does feature one of my two main favorite girls, so there is that as well. If you want to support me and maybe even get access to these mini-sets and/or future polls (or lots of other rewards), check out my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/redleatherart

In other news, I have been working to get assorted commissions done; both for and by me. I hope to post a couple of the ones by me on here/tumblr soonish, but I am waiting since I think I have a few that are related and I would like to post them together. Also, if you haven’t checked my DA page/tumblr recently, maybe you should; as that is where all commissions for me currently end up and they are worth checking out. I can’t say for sure what will get done in the game this month yet; but I have a couple weeks to do whatever I can. I have been working though a few new variations for existing events and a few other things, I will see what gets done. There should be another post here next week with something; either a status update or perhaps something else, it is too early to know yet. In the mean time, enjoy this preview!

Game beta 0.5 reached, one new public preview.

Hey. Sorry for the long gap between posts, but I saw no real reason to post late last week when I wasn’t ready to post a new preview yet; plus I was really busy all weekend and into the last two days as well. Also, quick apology for the weird downtime of this site a couple days ago, I had to email the host and get that fixed, and it seems fine now. Long story somewhat short, two new scene sets are in the game and I am trialing two new mechanics for future expansion. The two new scene sets in the game are play with monsters and pets respectively, and are pretty much what you would expect. I worked in a few new things that I have never tried before, such as a lamia and a slime; (remember that recent big monster poll?) as well as some things people wanted to see more of that I haven’t used that much. I think it all turned out quite well, and this might be my favorite update to the game so far; I sent out the 0.5 beta of Salune’s slave training with the rewards message to my applicable patrons last night.

If you are interested in getting access to what I have so far, remember my Patreon is set to charge up front now; so you can jump in whenever and receive rewards not long after. In other news, I hope to be back later in the week with a preview of this month’s Patreon mini-set and possibly something else; so check back later for all that. In the mean time, please vote in the polls if you haven’t already and enjoy the new preview below; my first real attempt at utilizing a monster girl.

Status update, new polls, old polls!

Leave a reply

Hi. So first of all, there are two new polls up; though votes last month were rather low for whatever reason. The new polls ask which of my pages you check regularly and how much text you prefer with your adult game scenes. More votes than last time would be appreciated; both of these will be used fairly soon as well. Last month’s polls polls seem to indicate that most people prefer darker themed adult stories/sets, and that most people would be interested in a short story if/when I make one. I know a few votes were scattered elsewhere, and there will be some less dark content still; but I mainly have to take away the general consensus of people who voted.

As for the status update; I posted to my patrons a few days ago about how I am reworking some planned scene sets in the game a bit and changing at least two right now. I am currently rendering some cool new scene sets; theoretically being two of three that I know people really prefer and/or want to see. (Monsters!) So far so good, but it is too early to say for sure yet how it will all go. I hope to get rewards sent out late next week, but I will say by the 13th to be safe; just in case I need next weekend to fix some things. (The last two… three weeks really have been a mess for all sorts of unpredictable reasons.) So the updated beta coming in should be quite nice; even nicer still if I can get time to add in some variations and other small improvements that I am looking into right now. I may also post another public preview from these two scene sets I am working on; but that is still up in the air.

New DA stuff posted.

Leave a reply

Hey. So this one will be short; the new DA stuff is up, though there may be one more added to that. I have had a very busy and rough week for many reasons and I hadn’t been able to get all this situated until today. I may just focus on expanding the actual mechanics/written part of the game this month, as I haven’t had time to start any new renders for that yet. (That does need doing at some point and there should be at least one new scene; I do still have time but I am  behind where I hoped to be, but life happens.) I hope to have a more detailed update next week, but I can’t be sure.

Hey. So I sent out Patreon rewards last night, and the new beta of the game that got sent out now features a pet play scene set of sorts; unfortunately that was the only new scene set I had time to work in this time around, what with re-rendering all the old scenes and everything. The new scene set also features one image that contains one fetish I don’t normally do, (water sports) but for assorted reasons I worked it in here.

So I am taking the next couple days to recover from last week, which was rough due assorted things. In the mean time, do check out the polls here and some spiffy new commissions I had done that are linked on my DA page and/or tumblr! I should be back sometime next week with something new to post here; the Patreon mini-set poll will end mid next week and it may be the preview of that, or maybe some new DA stuff.

Updated game beta previews!

3 Replies

Hey again, sorry for the semi-late post here but something came up yesterday and I got back too late to get all this together. Regardless, I finally finished re-rendering all of the scene images in the game so far and here are the four updated visual previews for the game so far; I did replace the one original scene option preview with the later lesbian scene preview, since there was no visual there to update. I think the new model looks far better and has done a lot to improve things. I also look forward to seeing what this will do for my renders in the long term, as I do plan to use this for most all normal-ish cocks in renders from this point on. Tests have been very positive so far and I forsee no real issues, though I do need to redo all current cocks I have saved in the new model; and I greatly look forward to future expansions to this model. I also did get one new scene in the game in addition to all the re-renders, and I hope to maybe add one more before rewards go out in a few days; though that may or may not happen. This means the main content scenes are basically halfway done, although I am considering adding assorted extra visuals, and that does not include the endings and other special images that need doing.

As for this month, there are two shiny polls up that could use more votes, and the free release of the realistic finale of RTL (RTL 11) is scheduled for a free release later this month! (The actual end chapter is more of an epilogue.) I will make some new DA images this month as well, as well as a Patreon mini-set around whatever topic my patrons vote for this time from the assortment of options offered when I post it in a couple days. I will use whatever time is left to work on the game; and though last month saw little new progress, I think it was all for the best in terms of game quality and the quality of my renders in general. I do not know when I will get around to trying that short story, as I was planning to do it last month before I got into the new model/re-renders mess; but I hope to try it soon, depending on the poll it may be even sooner or later.

New cock preview!

3 Replies

Hi again. So below is a composite preview made to show Salune’s old cock vs her new one; minor edits notwithstanding. As you can see, the new one looks much better overall; and yes I did shrink it a tiny bit girth-wise to balance things out and enable better fitting into… various things. As you can see, I also can finally get the damn contact shield working on the new one; something the old one simply refused to do properly ever since I got Octane. (In poser, that melds with the model to create a seamless blend; in Octane it collides and makes a crappy black tearing around the edges that I have never figured out how to fix well enough.) In the past I have had to work around this obvious issue; but now better close ups are possible in addition to other things! (All sorts of fun morphs and things are available with this new model; such as foreskin and a cock ring!)

The only downside to all this is that yes, I have decided to redo all the current content for the game so far; (I don’t really see any choice, the new one looks so much better and any add on content after the fact won’t match unless I redo this) and it is looking to be a rougher job that I initially thought. I should be able to get all the re-renders done before next month’s rewards go out; but I am unsure how much time I will have left for new scenes this time around. I was hoping for one or two, but as it stands even one may be a challenge; I will do the best that I can. I am redoing almost twenty-five images as it stands; and many are getting minor corrections as well. This fancy new cock model was not something I ever considered or accounted for when making this, and though it will make everything better visually, it will push things back a bit as well; however, I think it is for the best.

I plan to re-post(?) some game scene previews next week sometime, likely the same ones I had before except with Salune’s new cock. In the mean time, please vote in the polls if you still haven’t yet, and check out my patreon page if you want to get in on some of this fancy new stuff!
