Wet Nightmares News

​Hello everyone! Thank you very much for your patience in waiting for news about Wet Nightmares and our development. There is always a big question floating around as to when the next patch will come so let me quickly put everyone’s hearts to rest.

Wet Nightmares Chapter 01 is now in a Gold state, meaning that the first chapter has been fully completed, and all the polish and shine needed to make the chapter amazing has been added. The release for this will be coming in the next couple of weeks or so.

So why not release it right now? Good question! We are polishing up the other things around the game right now, these include overhauls to the Main Menu, Save/Load Screens, CG Gallery, Backlogs, Navigation UI, Options Menu, adding QOL Features to save prompts and exit notifications, Optimizing the game file structure, and generally improving player expectations on the product as a whole. The reason for this is that following the menu overhaul we will be updating our Demo for the final time (since it is based on Chapter 01) and this will be released alongside the new content patch for Chapter 01.

​

Okay, that is great, what about why you never post news anymore? The simple reason is that the only content worth sharing is entirely spoiler-related, meaning anything we share you won't be experiencing in the game for the first time. A very annoying catch-22, but here we are.

What about Chapter 02? When is that coming? Well, we are about 75% done, meaning the basics are in place it just needs a spitshine on the content. To give you an idea of what that means, basically, I sit down with the team and play the game line by line, then break down what I need to be changed to keep things consistent. This means making sure things like “Two scenes ago this light was off, and now it is on, so we need the background to change” or “Samara already took her panties off, so she should be naked here, do we need to change when she takes her panties off?”. It also means finding little issues with when audio cues play, or how the scenes animate. Then the changes get implemented, and we do the playthrough again, and again, and again, and again. Until all the edges and issues are removed, leading to a very polished experience. That's what's left to do in Chapter 02.

Lastly, in the next coming days, expect to see the store page for Wet Nightmares get a nice overhaul as well, we are going to be replacing all the screenshots, marketing materials, and key art around the game with new stuff. Content that better emphasizes the focus of the narrative and presents the game in a more focused light.

Stay tuned for a new drop!

The spoops are upon us, and what better time to do a spoopy update for Wet Nightmares?

Development is moving along at an incredible pace, we are doing tests of the build internally and ensuring it is all perfect. Little bits of additional dialogue are being added to fix some misunderstandings and such. The hardest part about building this game is making sure the atmosphere is good, since we are working in a visual novel format here there isn’t much other than pacing we can do to affect the mood of our readers. Audio cues, creating renders for specific scenes, and such. It all takes time to perfect.

The long and short of it, we are taking our time to make sure Wet Nightmares is perfect. You’ll be pleased when it’s in your hands, that we can be sure of.

Here are some new scenes from Chapter 2! We hope you all have a very safe and spoopy Halloween! And try not to bang too many very convincing girls in costume… you never know…

Hello everyone! A quick update to fill you all in on our progress thus far in building Wet Nightmares Chapters 1 and 2.

Progress has been good so far with building the next patch on Renpy. For the most part, Chapter 2 is in engine and now the focus has moved towards filling in missing art and polishing the presentation and atmosphere. Chapter 2 is pretty big, art wise, so the Erk is working hard on getting everything together.



The art for Chapter 1 is also being updated, backgrounds being rendered and other assets being updated to match the modern look of the game.

So that is it, for now, just know we are working very hard on getting things out. We hope to have something you all can play soon, but we will keep you informed.

Hello readers! Welcome to another update post for Wet Nightmares! Work is continuing at a good pace, and we hope to have a lot more than just a simple update to share with you all in the near future, but here is what we have for today.

[h2]Narrative Overview[/h2]
As most of you know Wet Nightmares is not written in English by default, Spanish is actually the first language of the game. So a lot of care needs to go into the translation to make our largest audience feel at home and cover the sense of scarousal we are aiming to achieve.

Chapters 1 and 2 for the English copy and translation are all but done. We are adding a few “extra” chapters between each main chapter to bring even more horror elements to the game. So that there will mean our writing team will be back at work and the process will take a little longer.

[h2]Art Overview[/h2]
Erk is smashing his way through the reworking of all the major art components in Wet Nightmares, these include redrawing existing scenes (just because he is better at his craft than he used to be).



It also means adding missing scenes that were only covered with narration before, meaning less imagination, and more ocular satisfaction!



Rendering has also come a long way since the original release of Chapter 1 which is why the new version is getting a lot more care with it now.



And lastly, we just wanted to show off the overall new look and vibe of Wet Nightmares.



The real work of putting all this together in Renpy is our next step, once the final touches are done with the narrative for Chapters 1 and 2 it should take a week to overhaul Chapter 1 and begin building Chapter 2.

We hope you enjoyed this brief update for Wet Nightmares, more to come soon!

As is tradition for our games, we wanted to start a development diary of the progress being made for Wet Nightmares. However, we won’t have much to say on the technical aspects of the development process because it is a visual novel, there are not a lot of technical and mechanical details we can go into, so expect progress and art updates for the game as they come out.

[h2]Chapter 01 Overhaul[/h2]
Our previous release had a bunch of temp art in chapter 01 for the game, many glossed-over scenes that could be drawings, and basically missing sexual art as well. Since the script of the game has been finished Erk has now moved on to sketching the missing art for chapter 01. This process for his methods is the hardest part, but after sketching rendering, and coloring the art is a lot quicker.

Check out some of the samples he sent over!



Lastly, for Chapter 01 we have a new promo pic for everyone to enjoy, with the full rendering I spoke of before!



The process for our development is taking a lot longer than usual so we are thankful for everyone’s patience as we build the game. We aim to have a large chunk of the game done by the end of this year! So enjoy some extra Samara while we build!
