Judge Heath here,
Alright guys, thought you'd like to know how things are going to be working for the next few days. We'll soon be moving onto Alpha v1.03, but we'll probably have some bleed through from Alpha v1.02's features into that. Given this, we've had to rejigger some of our original intentions in how to get things done. The Male Protagonist will not be coming fully in Alpha v1.04, but we'll be starting his implementation there, and then finishing it off in Alpha v2.01, and probably throughout most of the Alpha v2 cycle due to having to play catchup with his sex scenes.
So to give you guys a rundown of how this will go and what will be added.
Alpha v1.02.3
-The breeding menus and UI, as well as the sprite sex scenes of all the available monsters.
-All combat animations for our starting three characters and the boss.
-The Centaur and Harpy sex scenes.
Alpha v1.03
-Goldra+Brontide added to the game, as captains of the guard. Possibly also with a targetting range and ability to select party members so you can see everybody animated, but that's super up in the air right now.
-Egg laying mechanics, incubation, and the very beginnings of inheritance and breeding
-The Dog and Demon Sex Scenes.
-All currently active interiors (and a few planned ones).
-The beginnings of the inventory and shop systems, including the economy.
Alpha v1.04
- Polish elements from the previous stages that haven't been to our satisfaction.
-Get Thrud and Morgan into the game, along with their combat sprites.
-Docking station intro area.
-Polish out any quality of life problems (dialogue sequences, UI menus, etc.)
-Begin implementing the Male Protagonist.
-Add the Guild Representative to sell and buy monsters.
-The Scenes for the 4th Female and 4th Male Monsters (Yet to be voted on).
Alpha v2.01-04
1) Get the Male Protagonist, the Protagonist special mechanic, and Dungeons running, and implement the 5th Male and Female Monsters (Yet to be voted on). Rest of Monster Art Cycle devoted to getting Male Protag Scenes made with all monsters. Votes will be focused on which ones you want done first.
2) The ability to buy and sell living creatures, and activate the seasonal events.
3) Start up the crafting system (cooking to start, along with others hopefully as they'll all use the same basic code), and pirate attacks.
4) Kickstart the main narrative, major boss monsters and story sequences start being added, begin the push towards switching from Alpha to Beta.

Been 5 months... no progress
As I said on your earlier post, we're almost done with the last phase of this and are moving onto Alpha v2 in the next few months.
Seems y'all are moving very quickly. That's good to hear.
I was wondering if there will be any sex scenes with the NPCs ?
Yes there will be. See the latest art post for a few more details on that.
Wow, I love that plan! Everything is perfectly laid out and it seems like a reasonable amount of work per update for you :) And, as a shameless homosexual, I cannot wait for the Male Protagonist mehehehe :D If I may ask, is it even up to consideration to change the design of the MP? I know that the aim was to make the main characters as "average" as they come, so that the player can put him/herself into their shoes. But as much as the Female Protagonist is on spot in my opinion, it is rather hard to think of yourself as the "male" protagonist, when he looks like a 12-year-old, and has basically feminine features... I don't mean that he should be muscular or something, but he really looks like, well, a flamboyant, teenage twink. Sorry for that x( Maybe it would be possible to let people vote on that before he gets fully implemented in the game? Also, is the Male Protagonist going to have the same skills as the Female one? It would be cool to make them different, so that people would want to play both characters and really experience the full game :)
Are those...are those dragon people? :D
Yep!
wow, the project is just being most and most solid. xD Congratulations.
Yeah i must admit, this game looks like its gonna be waaay better than i thought or expected it to be... looking forward to see how this game will look like in a year from now ^_^
is it even out yet? o.o just saying if it is in my email for some reason my pc wont let me download it
Look in the $2.00 post below this one, the attachment is the current hotfix.
Keep up the good work guys! Really like how it's starting to shape up so far and your plans going forward, can't wait to vote on next monsters! If I could make one request I would love to see in the game, give us the ability to either resize the game window, change the resolution, or play in full screen. On a 1440p monitor the window is really small and all the sprites are tiny. I'm not acting for more actual resolutions and that would require more art, just the ability to stretch it.
Fullscreen option should have been added in the hotfix I think ~JH
