LOK: Rebirth v0.4e (updated July 26th)

[Elaymidoray]

Her boobs kind of look like they're trying to climb up her chest. I put my finger over her tits to get a good look, and the boundary line between the white and blue doesn't change angle, I think it should swing upward slightly. I used this reference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Ph9tlaUSfo . I think her left arm shouldn't move as far forward on inhale, it makes her look like she's twisting at the waist or the white should extend to cover her left arm more, as her elbows aren't moving to swing her arms out in a sort of chicken wing motion that would cause her shoulder to take up more room. :edit: I just realized her breasts only move up and down during her breathing, they should have a slight forward motion as her rib cage expands. :/edit:

Also, I think her left boob is a bit too far forward, it looks like her boobs are at a slightly different angle as the rest of her body. It looks to me like her head is perpendicular to the 4th wall, her body is about 10-15 degrees off from center, and her chest is about 30 degrees. Her nipples aren't at the same height, but her shoulders and elbows are, so she's not 'tilted' toward the camera.

I think her chest would be centered at this 'stomach line' position, but they need to move in relation to each other when she walks so that her chest is rotating with her hips. :/edit 2:

That said, your line work and shading are gorgeous, you're a fantastic animator.

(Took the image out to save space, sorry)

I think it might actually help a little better if ye just raised her left shoulder and right hip slightly when in a standing position, and go from there. Human being stand in what is known as contro-posto in the art world, (may have spelled that wrong) which is to say the whichever shoulder is raised, the opposite hip is raised, so that the lines of the shoulders and hips are opposing diagonals, instead of perpendicular.

In other words, they would be like this --> / \
And NOT like this --> / /

Holy shit
The teaser and the fact that it will have pregnancy convinced me to patreon this.
Please for the love of god keep it up!

Actually Kuja's the artist, so that praise goes to him.

Thank you guys for taking your time to give me feedback and a so detailed input.

I'll take all of this into consideration when I find time to make revisions to all the animations. Problem is, right now I'm on a really tight schedule because of regular work and multiple other time sinks. But I'm still pressing myself and my pals Kuja and Spartacus to launch this by June I hope, so if I am to be brutally honest I prefer to finish somewhat crude animations instead of focusing so much on the finer details. You'll thank me later, I'd bet!

Also, remember I'm just an amateur animator with no previous experience and no formal training... In fact, animation is only one of my rookie-level skills and apart from collaborating in this project I'm also making my own (not released) game, so I tend to jump from one activity to another (designing, writing, coding...) when I become bored.

Holy shit

Haha, thank you friend! And don't you worry, we'll work on this for a long time.

In my case I'm leaving my regular job by July to fully dedicate myself to this project and my own. A pretty huge leap of faith I know, but I'd love to make a living out of this and I'm serious about trying to deliver good and original enough stuff. So yeah... this is not a hobby.

And in Kuja's and Spatacus' cases I'm not gonna speak for them, but I'm pretty convinced about their commitment and professionalism. I'm very happy to have found them before taking the plunge.

Is it sort of like a perspective thing? Wait, like this?

My stance is that it should be consistent if the camera is pointed down slightly or horizontal.

Okay, I highlighted some parts. I drew lines across shoulders, elbows and nipples, and they shouldn't be 'that' far off. Of course, I'm not an artist, so if I'm wrong, feel free to ignore me.

[Elaymidoray]

Thank ye Porne, that's actually fantastical! (for everything that's so fantastic, it's mythical! (Not to be mistaken for fantabulous, for everything that's fantastically fabulous))

Specifically for if she stands straight and tall, which would make sense for a military individual. On the other hand, a woman who wishes to accentuate her curves will typically lean more towards a controposto posture. So where as Krystal may start straight backed, as she gets more relaxed and aroused, a gradual posture shift could be in order.

Obviously, this would take a bit of work and wouldn't likely be in the immediate future, but it would be something to keep in mind down the road.

On the other hand, doing a 3/4 turn for her face would make seeing both breasts make sense for said posture, as well as be aesthetically pleasing in both positions. Just a side note.

[porne]

My issue was less with the face, more with the boobs and shoulders which had a mismatch. People will look ~5° off of the center of their body at someone, but the boobs and chest should be oriented together. I would definitely rotate the left nipple down, and maybe the right one up slightly. They should definitely move with rest of the chest horizontally though.

Here's more reference stuff. Note 21 - ~30 or so are on boobs. https://imgur.com/gallery/JXfNc

Sorry, my comment for the face was just a side note. Something I thought of as I was hitting enter.

Hello there everyone, it's been a really busy month for us and I'm here to say that we do plan on releasing the demo next month, on May 26th. There is still a lot of stuff to be done and once more we are doing our best to finish it in time.

There are still two characters and almost eight backgrounds left to be finished and not to mention all the little details like GUI and some other effects.
Honestly, I never thought I would be able to truly see the completion of a project of this kind(even being it just a demo atm) and as an amateur artist and now game developer I feel really good about this, so I want to thank you all for all the support so far. I just wish I was able to make more updates for you guys to see but I'm not as fast as I wanted. Hopefuly that will change in the near future. Anyway, thank you very much and stay tunned for May 26th!

[Firefall]

It's gonna be a long month lol. Looking forward to it!

[wolfiegurl]

The game looks great!, the only thing i have a problem with is the lizard's penis. It's too human-like for these guys.

Working on this right now. Feeling like giving a little sneak peek...

Looking good
I'd love it if she could show us a mouthful of the stuff after a bj

Well, that wouldn't be hard to do. Compared to animating EACH of those strands by hand (which is what I'm doing right now) it would be child's play in fact.

Thing is, cum layering was one of the big fetishes the original game had. So we're making an effort to implement it and enhance it as much as we can. Most of those coverings you see in the pic are stand-alone and I need to manage all of them to move naturally with ALL the animations I do. So, time's short and May 26th is looming over us...

Your suggestion is duly noted and saved for when Krys feels like behaving lewd enough.

Hold the fuck up, the cum's going to be animated? Come on, now you're just spoiling us. How am I supposed to look at other H-games after that?

Well, admittedly it's giving me some additional work. Just making sure everything goes where it should is kind of annoying in some instances (boobs mainly), but in a game with this type of animation (skeletal) would be weird if I don't make sure it looks dynamic.

Also, it's not a mind blowing effect to be honest. I'm trying to give the 'things' a sticky and gooey feeling, but is also kind of subtle so I don't know if it will be very noticeable in-game.

Anyway, here you have the Walk animation so you can see what I mean...

I have been peeking at this thread off and on for a bit now. Got to say I like the artwork in general. I was wondering if there would be any breast expansion options for Kyrstal? Perhaps coupled with lactation? She is already well endowed but part of me would like to see her truly unrealistically massive. Either way keep making the game you want to make. I say it will look good.

Mind-blowing or not, the amount of work you three are putting into the game is astounding. Especially compared to all the RPGmaker games/VN's that are throwing out 10-15 minutes of gameplay and 3 pictures each month, which make up like 80% of western h-games that are currently being developed.

Wooow it's look so cool and awesome, one of the best projets i have ever seen, Congratulation to all the team

[Voidstryker]

i am so glad that you are making this, keep up the good work i hope to see a playable demo soon.(:
