That’s right, I’m making a blog post at 6 AM on Superb Owl Sunday. Big whup. Wanna fight about it? Sleep is for nerds.

I wrote a 3,100 word scene Sylvie, and I think I’m gonna rush into coding her next chance I get (which might be a day or three away). If anyone wants to brave the walls of text and pseudocode (and spoil themselves), she’s posted on the event submissions on the forums. Don’t say I didn’t warn you – this stuff is always much better to read once it’s parted out into code and parser calls.

Savin’s done some more work rejiggering Del to appear in Kally’s bar, with the alternate unlock route (for those Kiro-haters) and some new scenes. It’s at the top of my code pile.

I’ll be trying to dig into the email/submission backlog some in the days ahead. Enjoy the big game, bras!

(Go local/favorite sportsball team!)

I wrapped up a 2.8k word scene for Sylvie and reviewed an equally long “spank & grind” scene for the ladytypes that was submitted.

Soon… sooon…

Just jammed up a new poll to get an indication of things. This should be a free vote, open to everybody.

As for why… actually getting the iOS Tainted Space builds to cooperate has been a massive pain in the ass for months, and I think the code demons have managed to fuck up our ability to actually produce them for the time being.

tl;dr Whenever the iOS builds fail its always something stupid, but it takes forever to track down because we get absolutely no indication of what is actually wrong. Literally the only response we get from the tool that does the needful is this:

Basically, I need an indication of just how much of my time I can justify dumping into this on an ongoing basis. I have a feeling the iOS-only proportion of you guys is vanishingly small, and if I can justify putting off fixing things like this because it’s not like, half our playerbase, then I will so I can actually get some fucking work on content done.

Sorry I haven’t been posting more. Getting yanked around a bit this week which has made regular updates difficult, and combined with a lack of sleep, pretty impossible.

That said, the crew hasn’t been idle. Adjatha has some pretty primo busts readied up. Savin has an alternate introduction path for Del written up that I’m looking forward to coding. Gedan has a massive batch of taur goodness for the glacial rift inboard. And when I say massive, I mean massive. I’m talking 30,000+ words at last count. That’s easily two combat encounters worth of stuff.

I have been doing some blueprinting for a pretty involved laquine transformation item. It’s going to be a big project though, so I’d like to wrap up some of my other dangling chads before moving on. Sylvie (the moose-taur) should benefit from some free time I have tonight.

Lastly, I’ve told Gedan to go ahead and push a public build when she feels like it, but I think she might be putting her taur stuff in first. Not sure. Check back soon, bras!
