Bellow the cut is a long winded explination to catch up on what’s been going on the past few weeks, as well as a breif/possibly incomplete list of goals for the BETA release of the Fell Brothers Ukagaka.
Since this hasn’t been doing well on Ko-fi, and I’m sure my fallowers would like more information on these, I’ve decided to set aside a blog specifically for the Ukagakas. Quickly here I’ll go over what's been missed the past 2-3 weeks.
Currently this is where most my progress is at. I have two fully lined poses complete. You might think, wow, that’s not a lot for two weeks.
It’s taking a long time because of this.
Coding.
I have to completely relearn coding for this program after my extensive break getting used to my new art program. I was never a particularly skilled coder, and despite working in a computer repair place, coding is a whole new beast then knowing how to run deep virus scans. The coding, and having to relearn everything I can from Zarla’s Ukagaka walkthrough has taken up a lot of my time, as well as work.
Right now they are minimalistic in detail, and they’re still pulling from past animations. I intent to simply comeplete all my poses, and then come back to finish the animations after words. Between it, when I have time, I will code. However, I am running an art blog that had nearly daily posts, so that does slow down work by a large margin, as well as having a full time job.
That being said, lets put out a check list of things I need to do for the BETA release (meaning, this is the minimal. I have more planned in the future):
-Create Poses for:
--Surprised (Fell, Red) +talking/blinking
--worried (Fell, Red) +talking/blinking
--Sad (Fell, Red) +talking/blinking
--Smiling (Fell(?), Red) +talking/blinking
--Contended (Fell(?),Red) +talking/blinking
--Angry (Fell, Red) +talking/blinking
--Thoughtful (Fell, Red) +talking/blinking
--Bored (Fell, Red) +talking/blinking
-Complete randomized dialogue (this includes chain dialoge, dialogue for hitting/punching/petting, ect.)
-Complete initial install dialogue
-Complete Menu customization
-Remake Preview Card
For now, thats most of what i can remember. Here is a list of thing I have completed for the BETA:
-Standard Pose
-Creating Custom Balloons (text boxes in which the dialoge appears. You can find them above in the screen shot, but I will post them again here)
(Reffered to as, Rough Stone Red, I will offer this for use when I Post the BETA)
-Naming the Ghosts
It’s a long journey ahead, but I am comfortable saying it should become easier, even though I still have a lot of coding to do.
