Recorded some footage of the physics in action. It worked really well, but I probably have to tweak certain parts further.
Had to show some constraints too, it was very easy for the pieces to start clipping and whatnot! It looks like it'll work out after all.

Video showcasing physics simulation on X!

Now to return to actually making more animations. Been quite nervous about this, but there shouldn't be anything holding me back now.

Got a couple of art pieces for you too.
Cake Dilemma, fan art of Mistpirit's Amelia doing things to Zu's cake.

And the other piece is made by EXCore;
Streamer Sofi.

I've also got a few things going related to sound and music lately.
Might have a reliable composer on my hands to make music for the project! Or two! We'll see how it works out!

And I've got another session with Zara's VA scheduled for later today, we're gonna do some retakes for some things that didn't work out and add some more lines to help replayability! Gonna be a long time spent doing lipsync as always for later on. If only I had a lipsync assistant...

Got a few good facial expressions sent to me during the week, I'll try to make good use of them if I can!
I've received a bunch of auditions for Sofi now, so now comes to difficult choice of choosing which one's best fit for the job... Perhaps I'll have a small sample of each played during stream later today, and we can all come to a conclusion together?
Picarto link here.

Until then, I'm gonna work on some drawings that I've sketched up during the week. I feel rusty as always, but we'll see how they turn out.

I recieved some fan art for you guys to admire today though!

Zara in a wooly turtleneck, drawn by SyncedUp!

And a drawing of Zu getting dicked in the ear by Bear!

Hay, I scanned some sketches and such things yesterday, so I have something to show ya today.

Zoo + Zoo Troll
I drew Zoo... Then Raz gave it a shot as well.
Zoo Hurt.
I don't know what happened, but she's in pain.
Little Zoo
Zoo's playing on her Nintendo DS. In her underwear.
Za...... Slutty.
I drew this when I was in a car, because I was bored. Myerp. Little Zoo was also drawn in the car.
Project ZA sketch.
A quick sketch of what Za'll look like in Project ZA. Nnh.
Feelin' better?
Za being her usual self... :3
Wet Dream.
Zoo had a wet dream~...

I also got a new Fan Fiction! It's called "Ellie and Zu Get Lost". It's quite a funny story! Shake it out!
Go here for preview and download links!!

I also got some pictures to go with it:
Excited Zu is excited~!
Group shot!

Sprite work is going sloooow, I ran into some really complicated sprites... But I think I'm getting closer to finish them...

Meh.

Oh, and also check this topic in the forums for my Job List.

Yo!

I uploaded a bunch of pictures, so go check them out if you want to!

.....

Oh yes, I've been working on Zu Triple this week, it's going slow because I want it to look as good as possible, and it's really tiring D: I've finished "Slow" & "Fast", and shall start on "Faster" today.

uuh... I'm also waiting for the voiceacting girl to record & send "voices" to me. It will make me more motivated to work on it, I hope, because I've been very unmotivated for a long time....
It's mostly because I always get new ideas, but I can't make them because I have to work on Zu Triple D:

Well... Yeah.

ZuBound!
something I find very fun is to edit and make sprites, which I've been doing when not feeling like working on Zu triple this week.
Here's some screenshots:


Om nom nom

I won a PSI Caramel. I thought three 7 would give you something better D:

Pyjamas are boring.

It is very fun to edit enemies.

There guys are mean to me ;_; Also, I'm named Ness because I downloaded savestates to take the screenshots.

There are still lots of bugs.

Hello! Today, I finally have some pictures to show!

But first:

DM DOKURO finally finished all of the character themes!
Download all the themes here, or listen to them individually here at my Youtube channel.

Next; have some pictures. My dads computer broke, so I had to hook the scanner up to my computer and use some shitty scanning program, so the quality is kinda bad. Should still be watchable though.
Here's some sketches!
Zoo using her roller blades!
Some sketches of Za.

Very nice, indeed.
Now I have some adult pictures as well.

Meet Zee, creator of characters such as Motoki and Nekata!
Nekata & Motoki. Much fail in this picture.
Jay and Ellie.
^This one picture is a scene from a mini story taking place inbetween part 1 & 2 "What some people do for love". Download link to that ministory is in the picture description.

Speaking of that, part 3 is done!
'What some people do for love' Part 3
Written by 'Five'.

Enjoy~!

Also, the Ran flash is almost done, at least the animation... I have no idea when I can finish it though.

Zu now has around 80 different eye expressions. Neat, huh?

I'm not completely done with them yet, I have to do some eyebrow work and make some blinking frames, but that's not very troublesome. I'm not sure if I should proceed with Johanna's eyes after this or work on the mouth. But I think doing Jo's eyes first would make most sense.

Also, play testing and tweaking is being done with Sofi's part. There are so many things that need to be fixed, but we're making progress at least. The worst thing about this currently is an ugly aliasing issue. Hopefully we can get rid of all that stuff eventually.

There are still some things that are missing in this build, which will probably be added down another demo further down the line. Just trying to make this playable as it is is a challenge already! Always find something that's not working as intended or needs to be tweaked this way or that way.
But I gotta say, Sofi's face looks sooo much better, and she's way more expressive and talkative and customizable.
I'm not used to having so many customization options for my projects, so I find it fun to just play around with it. Hoahoa.


By next week, I'm aiming to have finished up that comic page I've been talking about previously and Sofi's new ref.
Hope you're looking forward to that.

I had a lot of fun at the playdate! But before I start talking about that, let me answer some questions that were brought up...

The christmas is not canceled, it's in progress of being coded by a new man now. So don't worry, it will be made, I will see it will. As for the Ellie flash, I shall try to finish it in time for Ellie's birthday, May 11. Wish me luck. I doubt I can do it, but it's a goal to strive for.

I recieved fan art of a sexy Zu, doing sexy things! The artist wishes to be anonymous~.

Anyway, I had great fun at the playdate! I'll put up some noteworthy photos of us...


On our way to the place!



Sneaky photo of butts.


Eating at McDonalds. I and my shirt have a funny face.


My pants broke at some point, forcing me to have a Sofi-ish look. Hoahoa.


We met Mario.


And Mario's trailer.


We played Mario Kart 8 demo, it played neatly.


We met Mario's voice too. I didn't meet him personally, because I was too shy, but I was next to the guy next to him in this photo! He later talked about his experiences with voice acting in video games. He's a real funny guy, and his voicework is really impressive. He showed off a whole bunch of different ones.


We played a lot of Mario Power Tennis. I played Fly Guy, but I prefer Shy Guy.


No playdate is complete without some good ol' butrape.


Raz's "I made a Hole-in-One in Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour" face. Speaking of which, I managed to score a hole in one on the last hole on the Sea Side Course on the new Mario Golf for the 3DS. I never played the course before, so I'm sure I made a similiar face.


Then it was time to go home.


I bought a Shy Guy.


A very disturbing picture we caught after playing with the filters on the camera.


The last groupshot before we split up!


Shy Guy reflecting back on his life. Very deep.


Then... It was all over.

Sorry for being late again. The combination of trying to change my sleep schedule, dealing with a attention seeking cat and having my sister around left me being either too tired or too busy to write an update. But now here I am, typin'!

Right now, I and Fallow are trying to get the Sofi part out for a second beta release! There's loads of bugs and tweaks that we need to fix up, but we're hoping to have one ready in a week or two maybe!

Been too busy to draw stuff again, but I've recieved a piece of fan art this week too!
Zara Virgin Killer, made by SyncedUp on our discord server! Thanks, it's very nice!

Well, until that beta release, the updates are going to be rather short, probably. See ya next week!

Hoi, I'm posting this update because DM DOKURO needs some help with money. I'll let him explain it to you:

[line][/line]
Hey, everyone. Sorry I've been away for a while, but I've got unfortunate news.

The sound card in my computer is permanently damaged, thanks to the integrated graphics card. This now delays EVERY music project currently available.

So I REALLY need help if all else around me fails.

The Zen Garden
Leviathan

Please support me and purchase one of these items. It will REALLY mean a lot to me.

The Zen Garden EP is a 5-track compilation of newer music projects.
1. Our Father Time
2. Closed Path
3. The Never-Ending Imaginary Adventures of a Childish Mind (Zu's current theme)
4. Another Traumatic Night at The Hospital (Remix)
5. Unwind

Leviathan is (and was) my most successful album, full of mixed emotions.
1. Restless Sea, Clouded Sky (Sixten's Theme)
2. The Red Skies of Thunder (Lollo's Theme)
3. Their Hearts were Never Mended
4. The Dream Weavers
5. Depression: Forgiveness
6. The Sands of Time
7. I Dream Of The World
8. Zypher
9. Restless Sea, Clouded Sky (Remix)

So please give these a listen, and purchase one of them if you enjoy them. Again, the donations would really mean a lot.

No, I'm serious. I want to make music. Now.

--DM DOKURO--
[line][/line]

You'll help both me and him out by doing this; I'll get my Character Theme's done and awesome music for my flashes. He made the music for the SSAASSC, and BHEE & the SZ flashes and I'd like to continue having awesome music for both my characters and flashes.

I gave him 150$ myself, and he needs a minimum of 400$ to buy himself a computer. So if you have some spare money, you should totally help us out.

Thanks, bye! :3

(Also as I don't have a deadline on the Onihole flash anymore, I'm putting down some more work into it and adding some extra stuff, so it might take a little longer to finish it.)

Posted 18th of January 2012 - 12:30 by Rock Candy | 8 comments.

Who died, you might wonder? My grandfather. In retrospect, I don't think I've got anything negative to say about him, and that's quite an uncommon thing to say for me. Always happy and nice, even knew how to use a computer regurarly. He passed away in his sleep, and he seemed to have a feeling that his time was up the last time.
Him passing away wasn't so hard on me, since it was a natural death. Dealing with other people during the funeral was the most difficult part for an asspie like myself. Augh.

Anyway, moving on.

I've been up late to finish another Ellie outfit for you. This time it's Ellie's Painting Outfit.
Quite a change from the previous painting outfit, if any of you remembers that.

I've also finished up Sixten's bio, finally! He's been in need of an update for a long time. But his wait has been worth it, because now he feels like a real character!
Read Sixten's new bio!
I'm also going back and touching up the other character bios with the help of a friend, fixing the flow, ironing out more grammatical errors and adding details and information where that is needed. So far, we've touched up Zu.
Check out Zu's bio, if you haven't already! Or perhaps just read it to refresh your mind.

You can expect the other character pages getting similar editing by next week, too.

Meanwhile, Aisha and friends have moved on from Zu onto Ellie.
Ellie's Turn, a follow up to that birthday drawing I made of Ellie! Thanks a lot, I'm sure we'll enjoy the moment more than Ellie, haw haw. She should be sleeping anyway!

And speaking of sleeping, I should too. Gotta get back to that ZZZZ flaaaaaaaash! Good nights!
