Hotfix 4.8.1

Just tossed up a hotfix on the Patreon for 4.8 that should rectify some of the animation issues with the new felf/dickwolf animations.

Sorry it took so long, the bug was a lot more tenacious than I expected, and required me to rewrite some of the code handling variations and color changes for monsters. There may still be some issues with clipping or eye variation, but I intend to have those fixed by the end of the week.

Expect the next hotfix (4.8.2) around the weekend. I'll get the rest of the animation issues ironed out, toss in the catgirl/catgirl animation, and hopefully refine the donation system a little bit.

Of course, let me know if you guys run into any more major issues.

Oh, and a sneak peak at the Holstaurus variations:

  1. Holstaurus are looking extremely nice wow, good job

  2. The blonde reminds me of peach for some reason... any particular reason the 6th Hol is missing her bell?

    Anyway, good to see you on it. keep crackin' away and we'll have all the animations sorted. One at a time man, but preferably faster than 1 a week. :P

  3. That should silence the people complaining about body types / animation issues.

    (just kidding nobody will ever stop complaining; great job though. Glad to see you're making progress.)

    1. Dude, you went full retard, never go full retard.

      They are working on the new animations & models. So there will be a lot of old animations until the new ones are implemented.

      Delete
    2. ...Says the person who has no idea about what they're talking about.
      There is already a breederxdickwolf animation with the new models. It should be showing up on the latest version of the game.

      Delete
    3. I think I saw that animation... It was posted somewhere as "an example of how terrible the art is, now" or some-such. The breeders titties were doing this weird spinning thing, and it looked a bit too mechanical... I think they may have scrapped it temporarily so the new animator can do a better job, with more realistic (or at least appealing) movement.

      For now, the old animations are filling in the blanks, which I personally think is preferable to a pop-up box saying "Animation is missing." However, it seems like some very vocal people are just really upset by some sort of "artistic dissonance" that makes their 8 foot long cocks shrivel into little Vienna sausages.

    4. If you go into some of the new animator (mittsies) past work and take a look, he does the weird tits spinning mechanically thing in a few pieces. Im not sure if its stylistic to his own personal appeal or if he just can't animate tits. Either way, glad they pulled that animation, it just looked goofy.

    5. It's still in for me. O:

    6. Yeah breederxdickwolf animationsare incuded in the pen only, harvest animations are still the old ones.

  10. Please give them balls this time... little ones yes, but something. The cat girl futas look strange with no sack ;-)

  11. Had to play through 4.8 before making a comment... other than the minor animation bugs already mentioned; the only thing I noticed was a major need for a little re-balancing. Margo didn't show up at all until month 4, dropped way to much money on me (like 3 times the total for the month) then didn't show up again for several months... the Alarune didn't show up at all in the beginning when she's most needed, little things like that.

    I did notice a minor bug to add to the list (for the Guild / Store donations) ... I bumped the traits up to "20 gil" and saw an increase in the number of monsters with traits "waiting for the store to refresh on it's own" but if you go into the store and refresh the list almost none of the monsters have traits and you have to exit and wait for the list to refresh on it's own again. Minor but just an FYI when you balance it all. In general there seem to be a lot less traits than in earlier versions IE: Geyser didn't even show up until month 7 which makes it very hard to "market" your consumables.

    Last comment for now... I really like the new Demons in general, but they all look the same, I know the hair is a little different, but the color pallet is all dark purple ... there is very little variation and in a word they get boring very quickly. If I can make a recommendation that while keeping with the dark pallets is understandable for a demon we need a good "evil" color scheme
    How about ... A true black demon with red highlights, A blood red demon with black highlights, A navy blue demon with violet highlights... You get the idea. It's no fun to breed them if they all look alike anyway. Just a suggestion.

    And would you PLEASE change the damn "you a winner" screen ;-) WTF U HAX

    1. Are you saying that ALL monsters need vastly different body color variations? That in itself is formulaic.

  12. Oh boy... Balls don't belong on Futas. Please, no...

    I know some folks like them, and I don't think my kinks are better than theirs, but... Maybe an option to turn them completely on or off? When I see a ballsack hanging below the cock, I think "Oh look, some dude got breast implants. Nice make-up job, Earl."

    ReplyDelete
  13. You don't think your fetish is better than others but you do think trans people are inferior. Right.

    Personally I'd like to see a toggle. I wouldn't think it would be too hard and that way you cater to all fans.

  14. Any ideas on when the ferrodragon will make their appearance in the game yet?

  15. So when is the 4.8 update going to be out for the non patrons?

  16. Thanks for the update! I'm not a patron but I'm new to the game and enjoying it much more than others of a similar persuasion. It's nice to be able to play a game like this without cringing at dialogue or whatever's happening to females characters every five seconds. This is just fun.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Please refrain from using insults against each other in my comments section.

    Either way we can easily have an additional trait or variation for futas with balls, we're not set on that yet.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Her belly button makes her look obese as opposed to thick. Also, her shoulders head and arms don't match her frame, which makes it look slightly bizarre.

    ReplyDelete
  19. I think the idea is that they've got more meat on their bones than the other types. But you don't have to be obese to have a belly button like that. Just depends on where you carry weight. Women carry it in their lower stomach a lot.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I don't think it's the fact that he doesn't like balls with a dick on a girl that insults people, rather the fact that he had to add this part in the end

    "Oh look, some dude got breast implants. Nice make-up job, Earl."

    ReplyDelete
  21. I like the new look for the Holstauruses. You've got the full range of female body types represented in this game (I'm guessing the Harpies are probably going to be fairly lithe). Also thanks for the hot-fixing the Elve sex animation. The original version of it was...quite jarring.

  22. the neoteny trait for the holstaurus is good but the breast are little too big in my opinion

    1. They're just as big as the old models, give or take. Heck, they might be smaller.

  23. Is it possible to breed a monster that gets all its stats + ?

    1. I meant breeding modifiers. Can I breed something with every single one of them +?

    2. I've gotten close, but it seems the chances are very slim. If its possible, its not probable.

      Delete
    3. At the moment the closest I've gotten is three. I would assume with some careful breeding it should be possible.

      Delete
    4. I've gotten four and have been using the pregnancy rate debug code and saves/restarts to test and see. Don't know for sure yet though.

    5. IT IS POSSIBLE! i should know i have gotten there before it is very difficult but it is there

    6. OP: I've gotten five out of six at this point! So you have given me hope. Thank you!

    7. My 4.7 has 6 full pens of them, all 6 green pluses. Look for the "true breeding" trait.. or is it "breeding stock" one of them. get it and use it to max out all the things. Not just stats, traits too. I was running 10 greased lightning, 10 all night long, 10 true breeding, 10 breeding stock, 10 iron will, 10 fertile, nurturing, no downsides, futanari and honestly I forget the rest. I'd screen cap it if the blog put up with such stuff in the comments.

    8. Yup, takes a lot of inbreeding but its worth it.

      Delete
    9. Plus the inbreeding is hilarious when you get the herp derp trait.

  24. Please for the love of satan shrink those hips. I get that they're cowgirl's, and the huge breasts are understandable, and even large hips on a cowgirl sort of make sense, but on the other monsters they just look wierd. Catgirl's used to remotely resemble cats, but now they look way too thick.

      I've been over this at least 3 times by now, so all this is getting is a look of disapproval.

    2. The game's called Breeding Season, the point of the game is to breed new creatures. A female with narrow hips is counter to that idea.

      Delete
  25. I love this game and the art style it has now. The only thing I could complain about right now that is in the game is the breed's and female elves' boob animation when being penetrated by the dickwolves. It doesn't look natural and it seems like the nipples are moving around the boobs in circles and it just doesn't feel right. Everything else in those animations is good and i understand that you are limited to using the models you have right now drawn up for the animations, but those boobs should under go a bit of re-evaluating and have the animation changed to something that looks more natural.

  26. I have a little question:
    How can i donate 2$ via WebMoney? (I have no credit card xD)

  27. People complain about the strangest things on this game. Particularly the stuff that's actually closer to reality. Women have big hips. I should say, women who aren't model thin. Which would not make sense for most body types. There's even been articles about screwed up anatomy when artists forget to include real hips. I mean, if hips aren't big enough women have trouble giving birth. Big ol hips are kind of important.

    I kind of get the breast thing since breasts are fatty tissue, and 9/10 directly correlate to body fat. But some of the other stuff...

    ReplyDelete

    1. It's not the hips per se. It's the body compared to the hips. I mean, the hostaurus has shoulders that are literally about half as wide as her hips. It makes it look bizarre. If her shoulders were scaled up to the sides of her hips it wouldn't look as strange. Would probably get rid of her odd torpedo boobs as well.

      Delete
  28. People really shouldn't complain~ There's a little bit of love in the game for -all- body types. I might just be bias because I adore meaty women, but still. The Holstaurus examples thus far are quite, quite delicious; from their chest, to their paunched bellies. I implore the artist(s) and animator(s) to simply keep them as they are and release them asap! Thanks~

  31. Really enjoying all of the progress, looking forward to the next update :)

    Hoping to see the feral trait come into
    Use soon, and many the new butt stallions :)

    Just a thought, have you considered animations for breeding anthro creatures with feral creatures? I think it'd make things even more awesome and unique!

    ReplyDelete
  32. I finished the version 4.6.It was interesting and enjoyable, but half way through the game it got boring (nothing new to discover),just repetition. Would be nice if you would space out the events, so that there would be surprises through out the game.For the rare types such as the male opposite of the Holstaurus, you should consider the ancient legendary monster, the "Minotaur", known for it's strength and virility. As perversions go, see some of Picasso's drawing on the subject matter. It he was alive today, he probably would enjoy your what you are tying to do.

  33. except "tranny" is a transphobic slur, and implying that someone with a dick and breasts is not actually a woman is also transphobic, so not only is he transphobic but you're transphobic. nice!

    seeing issues when someone makes a problematic statement even when in reference to a porn game is not "reading into it too much" and isn't overreacting either. if he has a preference for futas without balls, that's fine. but if he decides to express this preference by throwing a disadvantaged and oppressed group under the bus (in this case, trans women and intersex people as well), he is doing something fundamentally wrong and this should be spoken out against. plain and simple. i appreciate h-bomb's desire to keep insults and such to a minimum here and am happy to comply but this can't exactly be a comfortable discussion space for everyone if language like this is allowed to go unchecked.

  35. For all the people complaining about hips size - turn off computer and go out to see real women.
    I'm female with figure more like catgirl/elfgirl than holstauri and my hips are as wide as my shoulders. I don't have famous Brazilian butt and as a former swimmer I have broad shoulders. So it isn't very far from reality.
    IRL women come with various different sizes - not only in one as media tells you.

    1. This is not true for me, but maybe real real women don't appeal to them. Maybe that's why they're playing an online, cartoon, anthro porn game.

    2. I don't have a problem with curvy women I would just like some hourglass figure women as well. Particularly for races which are stereotypically known to be lithe and thin (aka elves)

      Delete
    3. Yes, your hips are as wide as your shoulders, not twice as wide like these characters.

      Delete
    4. Also, real women aren't cat/cow/bird/ whatever hybrids. This is a fantasy game. It doesn't matter how "real women" are built.

    5. What the hell are you guys talking about. I have atomic sized titties, elephant sized hips and a 14" penis. Everything you see in these games is completely true. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise, now excuse me while I attempt to push my laptop away and stand up without causing bodily harm to myself and others........

  36. Calling someone transphobic is also an insult. Insulting someone for possibly accidentally offending someone is not the right way to handle that situation. By immediately calling that person transphobic you are presenting yourself as prejudice as well. Freedom of thought and expression is just as important as freedom to be who you are/wish to be. Don't insult people for having opinions just because yours differs from theirs.

    ReplyDelete
  37. There are many interesting and worthwhile discussions to have on transphobia but this is absolutely not the place to have them. I don't intend to tolerate insults towards my fans either direct or indirect; consider before you post whether your words are demeaning to others, and if you do feel insulted by someone else's statement I would prefer a "hey, I don't appreciate that language" rather than a direct accusation (as they are seldom ever constructive). If you want to keep discussing this either take it up with me in private or take it somewhere else. This is not what these comments are for.

  39. I hope that mittsies stops doing the ridiculous breast animations, and starts doing a few facial animations. Other than that, his animations are great. But those two things are REALLY strange looking.

    1. Lack of facial animations so far is on me, as I hadn't gotten our facial animation set-up all prepared for Mittsies when I had him make the first few animations. You'll be seeing more facial animation in the animations to come.

  41. What about to separate saves in single file? That will make update to new version less painful.

  42. Wanted to add a constructive comment on here quick. First, excellent moderating, cutting that off so quickly. More importantly, I wanted to add my vote for either no balls or a toggle. I don't mind reading about them, but visually it becomes "oh, just another shemale. I can see those in real life!" Thanks!
