Predation devlog 7/1

 



Hello everyone. I hope you are doing well today.
Sephra took over the devlog last week but today I have returned to write them for you. Our release dates got a little messed up, so this should be coming out on the first, and then we will return to our two mondays a month system.

So what's been happening in between the last devlog and now?

Well Sephra has been busy working and creating some art and animations. They take a while to complete but they do see...

Predation Devlog 6/16/20

edit* you dang Americans and your wacky dating system!


Howdy everyone!

Sephra here this time, letting you all know I'm alive and such and capable of typing still, and this is most definitely Not Sprrigs wearing one of his/my old skins!

Work's been going fairly well of late, with my main focus being on getting the game over CGs up to scratch and continuing on with the animations for all our level 1 infecteds that are yet to be done; we're hoping to have al...

Predation Devlog 5/26/20

Yo! It’s me sprrigs again. Sorry for being a day late on the devlog again, I really need to set an alarm or something for it.
So let's talk about something.
Today I have been working on porting over the text from our old text  system to the new one. In this new one, it should run a little bit  easier, and you should be able to skip to the end of text by pressing E.
Besides that I have been changing a few lines of dialogue.
 

Vero has updated our website, ...

 Hello all
I hope everyones doing well!
Today’s devlog is coming rather late in the day. My apologies.
 

The past two weeks have been plenty of the same old things
Bug fixing and reworking features.
 

Sephra has been hard at work making new assets and animations, including a tutorial screen, and a new chef animation.
 

Meanwhile I have been hard at work reworking the text system
We decided it’ll have a new UI, along with with the ...

Predation Devlog 4/27

Hello all!

I hope you all are doing well today!

Me and Sephra have been working at a steady pace to get everything all set and ready!


There is not too much to talk about today. So I'll leave you with what I've done in the past two weeks.


Bugs. Oh my god I have fixed so many bugs I feel like I should just become an exterminator at this point. Everything from footstep sounds, to fine tuning the gallery noises. I’ve been working on it non stop.

Predation dev log 4/13

 

Hello everyone, and welcome to today's dev log

There is not too much to talk about today. So I will keep it relatively short. We are working on more bugs! Those darn nasty things. A decent amount of bugs have been ironed out, from problems with the gallery, to problems with doors. While we were fixing things I decided to try to fix a broken system. So let's talk about that a little

Checkpoints!

Predation dev log 3/31

 

Hey everyone!
I'm sorry that i'm a little late on this dev log. Both me and sephra been very under the weather for the past few weeks so progress has been rather slow.
Recently we have gone full steam on crushing bugs, while i work on crushing them under my feet, sephra has finished coding the gallery. We added the ability to zoom in on any animation or image. Instead of just images

Meanwhile ive fixed the doors, and a few more minor bugs. We are making solid progre...

Development Log 03/02/2020

 

Hello everyone!
It's me, Sprrigs, back again to talk about the development log for today (3/2/2020)


So, Lets jump right into what's happening.

We added punches, and kicks! For the boss at least.
Yes everyone's ‘Favorite’ boss bunny has been added into the development version as a real enemy. He is rather mean tho.

As I'm writing this Sephra is finishing up his code, and it shouldn't be much longer until we enter the bug testing phase.

Hello!
It's me, sprrigs
As I promised last time. I’m back today and ready to start the first dev log.

Let us first start with an issue.

It's no secret that predation has been kinda buggy, however as of right now we are working ...

Upcoming Changes and notes

 Hello all! It's been silent recently and I need to address why.
After the release of the gallery version, Which was delayed on FA,i'm sorry. Me and sprrigs sat down for awhile and looked over what we have done here for predation. We were not happy with ourselves. We aren't talking about the game itself, more of how we treated everyone else. We left everyone in the dark, not really giving much details to what's happening.

We both agree that this has to change.

We both ag...

Merry (late) Christmas - Gallery Version!

Hey everyone,

Meant to get this out on the day itself but some bug-testing ended up hampering it a bit, as well as various family things; anyway without further delay:

23/11/2019: should really stop dating these things!

Hey everyone,

Quick update coz I want to try and be more regular about this stuff again!


Last couple of weeks have been fairly productive; most of my time on the game has been spent with the animation for evident reasons, but I've also been putting together a Gallery mode for the game too! 

 

Which will be including the animations and CGs, and for the purpose I've scaled the resolution on all the animations up to double so there's a bit of a q...

5.11.19 - Yep, Still Not Dead


Here's my first appeasement for all of you, even if it is a few days late!

So you may all be somewhat surprised to see me posting here what with my absence; I won't elaborate too much but I guess the main point of it is I've become quite reclusive and nervous about generally talking or announcing or anything like that in the ensuing months. It's a problem, I realise as much, but I ca...

Hey everyone!

I'm happy to say that I'm still on the straight and narrow, over a month clear of that stuff now and continuing to build up some stability again; it's certainly been pretty tough, and I'm not out of the woods yet, but I'm so much more confident in my own ability than  even as recently as a couple of months ago, that regardless of the challenges I know I'll carry on ^^ 

To that effect, let me tell you about some of the progress made!

Hey again everyone!


Wanted to give you all an update on things, now that I'm over a week clear of the stuff and starting to feel like what I assumed my old self to have felt like! 

I'll talk more about that in a sec but first off I wanted to let you all know I've resumed work now and for the moment at least it's been going absolutely swimmingly! I've even been working on the adult animations directly again for the Pharmacy Worker and actually enjoying it! Not to me...

Hey everyone,

So as a few of you no doubt noticed I disappeared again briefly but altogether more totally, and I feel like I can get through telling y'all if I just splurge it out here while I feel in the mood so, incoming!

So in the last blog I wrote here I mentioned how I'd made some mistakes over the last year in terms of taking care of myself, letting my mindset and mood drift, etc etc. And that to combat this I've been really starting to take a look at myself and how I've bee...

30/03/2019: Regarding my lack of progress

Hey everyone,

So yeah, I can't and won't try and hide behind anything; I fucked up and let myself get depressed and anemic and just generally exist along this weird tramline of feeling like I'm constantly busy but never getting anything done. And I wasn't, it's true, nothing at all like what I had hoped I could have achieved by now has been done and it's frankly something I should be, and am, ashamed of. 

I'm sure you all know the circumstances around this last year, and 2018...

Hey everyone,

So I saw a few people were missing things and a certain mouse got back to me that I'd neglected to put in both the pipe and the golden retriever enemy! 

Pretty much par for the course for yours truly then! Here's the link to a new version of the game, please give this a play instead:

27/3/2019: Oh weird Patreon layout (Also NEW ROUGH DEMO!)

Hey everyone!

So I was starting to get a sort of, psychological thing about updating the game til I'd done that animation for the wolf pharmacy worker, but after a couple months grinding my teeth I've realised it's really not the way I can work effeciently; my productivity slowed right down and I was so blindered by getting this one aspect, (one important aspect admittedly), that I had left everything else in favor of white-knuckling it through the animation.

Well, I'm happy to sa...

Hey everyone,

I wanted to write something out to you to give some progress updates, couple of things I neglected to show you that I've made while streaming of late:

First off is a little robot scanner who, as they are here, will be attempting to detain and bring order to the various areas of the metropolis, armed with a mean grabby thing and a couple of tazer arms, plus a tank of security...

I did some streaming!

Well that was fun!

Not only did I do some streaming, but I even used my headset and talked to people! Didn't think I'd be doing that any time soon, but it was fine! Everyone was very friendly and encouraging, and I definitley plan to make it a regular occurence to give you all some more content to at least watch in betwen updates!

I'd write more about progress, but beyond the animation being a consistently fun and challenging process there's not too much to tell; plus I've gotten ...
