Asset Glowup

A walk-able demo is on the way soon, and one critical part of that has been creating standalone assets for all of the items scattered around the map. The old map was basically just a rough house layout with furniture like beds and desks doodled in. 

The new map is keeping the same layout (and much of the same visual style), but all of the assets are getting a fresh coat of paint. The car (did you know it was even suppose to be a car?) in particular got a lot of love.

I'm also...

Huuuuge... Tracts of Land!

In the big gif update (haven't read through it yet? Check it out here!) I mentioned that our main character has a pair of physics enabled boobs. Here's a closer look at what that looks like!

The character's torso is set up to follow the mouse cursor as it moves around, and her boobs react to that torso movement. Live2D makes it simple to tune the actual physics parameters, so I'll be able to tweak the jiggle physics until they're just right. I can also alter those physics input...

One Small Step for Game; One Giant Jiggle for Game Boobs.

This progress update took a little longer to get to than planned. It was originally just going to be a demo for the new walking loop, but like pulling on a loose thread that kept leading to new tasks I wanted to finish before showing it off. In no particular order, the gif above shows off:

•     Our main character has a top-down representation! This will be the view you will use to move around the world and interact with people. When you interact with someone the...

Underwear Extravaganza!

Here are the girls in their underwear sets, again showing off their idle poses! Of course all of these models are also clickable in game, so you will be able to spank their asses and tits on command!

Group Idle Pose

All of the characters are rigged up, so here's a little gif of the girls in their idle poses. The boys are all rigged too, but they're a little less fun to look at. If you're a patron take a look at the patron version of this gif that shows them off in their underwear!

Character Rigging Progress!

I've finished rigging up all of the base characters for A Very Full House! That means they're all set up for motion in the same way as the main character is in the demo. I'll have a demo .gif of that up in the next few days to show how much life that breathes into the visuals of the game.

I've learned a lot rigging up all six characters, and I already see a bunch of ways I can make things faster and better in the future. One thing I've learned is how important a good na...

Art Practice!

This whole project started when I wanted to learn how to draw, and soon discovered it's far more fun to draw naked girls than pretty much anything else. Practice makes perfect, so in addition to the art I'm making explicitly for A Very Full House I also sometimes do quicker sketches and pose studies using the characters from the game. I thought you might enjoy a look at it, let me know if you want to see more!

A Very Full House of Tech!

There are a bunch of tools that are going into making A Very Full House, here's a quick rundown of some of the major ones and what part of my workflow they are used for:

GIMP - I use GIMP for all of my drawing, as well as any sort of image processing/manipulation I need to do. I'm sure Photoshop would be a little more user friendly, but I can't say no to a good open source program!

Live2D - Once a character pose is drawn I import ...

Next Up on the Docket: Character Rigging!

The A Very Full House FAQ is live, so it's time to get to work making a full game! The first thing I'm going to be working on is getting all of the existing characters rigged up for movement. That means taking their art into Live2D and defining how different parts react to different parameter values like xRotation, BoobBounce, or whatever. Once the characters are all rigged I can define different facial expressions, animations, and clothing sets for them.

I have a check...

Jiggle Physics Engaged!

Did you know that in the playable FAQ our lovely main character is clickable in a couple of interesting places? I'm sure some of you stumbled upon it by accident (and a few more are true deviants who tried it right away!), but if you haven't seen it yet give it a try! It is only set up on the main character right now, but will be present on all characters as they get rigged up for motion.

These fun boob bounces were added as a demo for a few of different things: raycasting onto the char...

Test... Test... Is This Thing On?

Here we go, the first release of anything related to A Very Full House - the playable FAQ!

It's a small (<30 minute, <50mb) tour through some of the characters, their initial art, and a showcase of the general style of the game. If you're here it's probably because you're curious, so hurry up and go check it out: The Playable FAQ! 

There is ...
