Notice of vacation

Hey guys!

Just giving everyone a heads up that I will not be working from the 27th June to the 10th July (2 weeks off).

I intend to take the whole 2 weeks off and not be on the computer much (or at all if possible). I've been working pretty hard for the past 2 years and I've not taken a full week off since then. I've spoke about planning to, but always ended up working a couple of the days at least.

I'm beginning to feel the effects of burnout (mainly social burn out as May ...

Solarion Project 0.19 - Delay Notice

Hey guys,

Just letting you know that the release of 0.19 will be delayed until Monday. Unfortunately due to illness and a fair amount of social obligations this month, I haven't got things quite ready in time for today's release. But hopefully with the weekend and Monday I should be able to get everything wrapped up by Monday.

I hope you can understand!

If you did experience the below problem...

Can you try this build? 

I've added logging and disable the plugin I believe to be responsible. 

If you run into the error again, there should be a Log.txt file in the game folder, copy and paste the contents into a comment here.

Thanks so much guys!

Did you experience this error?

I'm trying to get a sense for how deep this problem is. Right now it's difficult to try and fix because it's not something I can replicate on my machine, nor is it consistent across the player base.

Please answer this poll (even if you were unaffected!) as it will help to give me a gauge of widespread this. 

If you were affected, if you could also list WHERE it happened and what you specs are like. And please confirm you extract the game with 7zip!

The Solarion Project - Month plan!

Hey guys,

Another month for TSP has come and the 0.19 is planning to bring some tasty goodies to the game now that the game has been moved over to the rpgm engine. The game mostly functions the exact same as before, which was the main intention, but there is one large bug that needs to be resolved that I think a large chunk of the player base experienced. 

That will be absolute priority #1 as I don't like the idea of having a heavy crash in the game, even if it eventually bec...

Patron release - expected Tuesday / Wednesday

Hey guys,

Just wanted to give you a heads up that the Patron build will likely be released on Tuesday or Wednesday. If I get it done sooner I will of course release it as soon as I feel comfortable it is ready!

Sorry for the minor delay!

Update

Hey guys,

Just wanted to give a little update on where things are at with the rebuild and everything else.

So far the rebuild is going well, there is only Shuma left to add for the main cast progressions after that it will be main story progression along with the side NPC progressions. 

I've found a plugin that seems to do the necessary job for animations as the one I wrote had a large pre-load time with it. We lose some frames in the animations so for some it might see...

RPGMaker Rebuild - beta now available!

Hey guys!

The first beta build of the TSP rebuild is now live. 

Unfortunately it wasn't quite a good ride this month, and due to a massive amount of bugs in the core systems when play testing Malaena's progression line I was held back quite a bit.

To that end only Malaena & Catherine are implemented right now, though their 3some has also been added so yo...

Happy New Year - 2022 Outline

As we return back to work I wanted give you all an outline on what you can expect this year and the exciting things to come for this project!

To start the storyline simply have both Kittenna's and Lillith's level 2 pro...

2022 Tease!

Hey guys, 

Can't believe we are almost at 2022 already, this year has really flown by! A lot of ups and downs, but I'm super thankful to everyone who has supported the project either financially or introducing others to the project!

Without you guys this would not be possible, although I often find myself in financially precarious situations, I still wouldn't take what I had before over this. Creating projects people enjoy is really a passion and I want to continue doing so n...

0.17 - Bug Fix

Hey guys! 

Just letting you know I've bug fixed a few issues that have cropped up:

 - Game Breaking bug that stopped Lillith's progression

 - Kittenna bust no longer appears during her pre-doggy fuck scene

 - Made the Lillith & Kittenna overlay larger to make it look less weird

Same link as before, or this one here. 

The Solarion Project 0.17 (Kitenna X Lillith Threesome build)

Hey guys,

I haven't had a lot of time to thoroughly test this, but let me know if you get any issues! I'll try to fix them ASAP! 

It's a short content build anyway while the main rebuild is ongoing. I hope you guys enjoy!

TSP Rebuild + 0.17 News / Update

Hey guys!

I recently told Patrons this, but unfortunately it looks like the TSP rebuild will be delayed by another month. That said it's going relatively well, the major systems are complete and overall improved. The slowdown has been caused however by having to manually copy and paste a lot of the earlier dialogue. (Before I started writing them into CSVs to be imported.) Good news is once this is done it should be smooth sailing as all the later dialogues were put into CSVs first.

TSP Rebuild Update

Hey guys,

So I wanted to give an update on where things are at with the TSP RPGM Rebuild. So far it's going well, the majority of the systems are in place and now it's the slow slog of transferring everything over (data, dialogues progressions etc). This is made even slower by the fact the early dialogues weren't put into a file that could be run through the importer I wrote. This means I've had to copy and paste a lot of dialogue into CSV files so they could be imported into RPGM. ...

The Solarion Project RPGM rebuild update

Hey guys,

Just wanted to show you the progress of what has been done so far. 

Still got some way to go, like tidying up a few menus. Bringing in the objective menu (next big task) as well as the big data import of dialogue and progressions. This means the rebuild might not be ready for this month as originally thought, and if it is ready it definitely wouldn't hav...

Plan for the month / future

Hey guys!

So after last months polling for followers and patrons I wanted to give out of information of what you can expect for this month's work.

Game Direction:

I polled the question about how people would prefer the game's direction to move forward. Whether that be in a more Visual Novel style format (as its current state) or to start focusing on the actual game mechanics to bring in a full game cycle. 

With at least 80% of the vote on both pol...

Game Design Poll - Game Engine - Patrons

Following on from the previous poll...

I recently saw a lot of positive feedback on my other project in relation to the change in game engine. I know unity isn't to everyone's taste, but wasn't aware how much of a hinderance it might.

With that in mind the next poll will cover that topic...

Witchking Fundraiser!

Hey guys!

I just wanted to let you know that we are holding a fundraiser for Witchking via Ko-Fi. 

We've already smashed the first goal of $1,500, which means some threesome goodness will be coming to TSP, guaranteed! Expect to see those teased pairings (Kittenna x Lillith, Malaena x Catherine, Shelly x Mia) come to life! Along with a little special thing for Shuma as well of course ;)

Game Design Poll - Game Direction

Hey guys,

So as I mentioned in my previous post, I was looking to start bringing polls / discussions to the followers & patrons of the project to  try and see if I can make some big improvements to the game to try and widen the appeal.

It has been brought to my attention recently that the game feels sort of aimless in the direction it wants to go (which I agree with). And I was t...

Long post - 0.16 - future of the project

Hey guys,

I want to up date you all on what's going on, since I know I've been a bit unusually silent this month.

Just to put this at the start there will be a tiny delay for the 0.16 build. It will now be released on Monday instead of tomorrow as originally scheduled. If you pledged this month hoping for the build, do not worry. As always with any delay that overspills into next month, if you cancel your pledge you will still receive a copy of the build via messages.
