Tamer: King of Dinosaurs News

Monthly Dev Update #10 - Dirty Talk, Asshole Birds Chase, Updated Demo and more!

[p]Hey everyone![/p][p]We have so many updates for this one, hope you'll enjoy![/p][p]Our next build should be ready next week for our supporters. The world of Tamer: King of Dinosaurs is coming closer and closer to all of us! Don't forget to wishlist it![/p][h2][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink]Dirty Talk[/h2][p]Now that the demo has wrapped production, we're focusing on our NSFW objectives, so here's some information about the copious amounts of boning we're about to unleash.[/p][h3]Sheela Romance Map 1[/h3][p]Romancing Sheela in Tamer is one of the best parts of the narrative, and we wanted to make the experience truly unforgettable. This meant creating a special map with a special weather condition - Dinosaurland's very own version of an aurora borealis.[/p][p]Our senior VFX artist worked hard with our game's code and plugins to pull it off, and the result is pretty damn good if we say so ourselves.[/p][h3]Sweat System Adjustments[/h3][p]While we're mostly happy with the body moisture generator we have in place, there's always room for improvement. That's why we went for a second pass and identified the optimal conditions for titty condensation and came up with some prime figures.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]More NSFW Content[/h3][p]When the next demo drops, we plan to include additional NSFW content. This will likely be new positions and could include new maps as well.[/p][p]Here's a preview of some stuff you could see there or that is otherwise in the works below, like...[/p][p]Spider lady hot yoga![/p][p]Cat girl carry![/p][p][/p][p]Rock girl mommy milker trinketkinis![/p][p][/p][p]Ice cream shopping![/p][p][/p][h2]Deep Jungle Bang Bang[/h2][p]Raise your hand if you want to bang a catgirl under the dark canopy of the most deadly depths of the jungle! What, just me?[/p][p]Today, we're previewing the deep jungle environment in-game for the first time. This section will be used in our NSFW module for Sheela's third romance scene, which can only be unlocked by defeating a rather large and scary dinosaur.[/p][p]HINT - Its name rhymes with Hairy Onyx.[/p][p]This is the most dangerous part of Dinosaurland - the deep jungle.[/p][p]After you rock his shit and cut his head off, Sheela's gonna be all about that bang life. After all, hunting big game with her partner is kind of her thing.[/p][h3]Deep Jungle Previews[/h3][p]Along with showing off the map itself, we wanted to give you a variety of previews so you can see how the action currently looks on it:[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Asshole Birds Part 1[/h2][p]The pelagornis have arrived in the valley, and it's up to you to cull their numbers before they become an unmanageable problem. This chase sequence is really different from the others in that it's focused on shooting way more than dino drifting.[/p][p]These two chase sequences break up the standard walking and fighting you do in most semi-open world games and add some variety to the module itself with the combat focus.[/p][h3]Upcoming Trel NSFW Poses[/h3][p]The upcoming internal demo will also have new NSFW content! The current plan is to ship with Kacerie and five poses, but we might change up the characters depending on the progress.[/p][p]Speaking of dirty stuff, here are some shots of Trel's upcoming poses before we begin the animation process:[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Stampede Sequence[/h3][p]In terms of cutscenes, we're now nearly finished with the animation for the most difficult scene in the game - the big stampede![/p][p]If you've read the book, you know that this is one of the biggest moments in the narrative of Tamer. Lots of dinos, lots of destruction, fighting, and all sorts of shit hitting the fan.[/p][p]Expect bad things to happen, and Victor to save the day by leading the tribe to salvation immediately after and earning their respect in the process.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Sheela Special Outfit[/h3][p]We've noticed a huge spike in traffic from Chinese fans lately, and we wanted to thank them for their support.[/p][p]We're making a special outfit for Sheela, and although you saw Sheela with it in our Thank You! post, here are a few details that you might not have seen yet:[/p][p][/p][h2]Asshole Birds Part 2: Electric Birdgaloo and Updated Demo![/h2][p]On Part 1, we've shown you the first of two chase sequences involving culling the pelagornis, aka asshole birds, aka orange birds that appear as the first major antagonists in the narrative, and now we have the second part to show you![/p][p]And the second chase proves why the culling of the first was so necessary, since there are now so many birds in the valley that even stepping out of the cave becomes a major danger.[/p][p]Victor and Sheela know something must be done, so they ride out to take care of things, knowing it's their last chance to strike a balance in the valley.[/p][p]This one is much more difficult and also longer than the first and involves some new alpha class assholes that will make your life miserable if you don't take them out now.[/p][p]We worked hard on some cool environmental effects here that we think turned out pretty well to show how strong they are.[/p][p]And here's the best part - you'll get to play both of these sequences in our updated demo! As long as you're a qualifying supporter, you'll get to sample the internal build.[/p][h3]Kacerie NSFW[/h3][p]More great news - we're not only adding two chase sequences next week, we're also adding Kacerie! It's a little strange because she's actually the last female character you romance in the game, but she's the second character you'll get to have fun with in our demo.[/p][p]To give you something to look forward to, here's a lovely nude photo of her in high def:[/p][p][/p][h3]Sheela Romance Scene 1[/h3][p]Sheela's romance scene blocking is underway for the big moment, and we're getting some good shots out of it.[/p][p]Here's a quick preview reel (lighting isn't done yet)[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Vic's Undies[/h3][p]During these romance scenes, we have the good old post-action sequences, and we didn't think it was appropriate for Victor to be fully dressed, and sometimes the pants and boots look wasn't flattering, so we made him a pair of undies with an easter egg baked in.[/p][p][/p][h2]What's Next?[/h2][p]Next month, we should already have the aforementioned updated demo to our supporters with lots of new content that we've discussed in this long devlog.[/p][p]In short, we should have:[/p]
  • [p]Asshole Birds Chase 1[/p]
  • [p]Asshole Birds Chase 2[/p]
  • [p]Kacerie NSFW Content[/p]
  • [p]All The Previous Content (Galmine NSFW, Day 1 Chase, D3S3 Cutscene)[/p]
[p]Thank you so much for your support. Don't forget to wishlist Tamer: King of Dinosaurs! See you next month![/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]

Monthly Dev Update #09 - Early Demo Out, Demo Feedback, Look-at Tech, and more!

[p]Hey everyone![/p][p]It has been a long road, filled with hiccups and eureka moments, and we’re proud of what we’ve achieved so far. We can’t wait to show you what the future holds for Tamer: King of Dinosaurs![/p][h2][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink]Early Demo Out[/h2][p]Let’s start with the most important thing: our early demo is now available to our supporters! You can see how to get it on our Discord server![/p][p]The demo consists of three parts: Galmine’s romance scene with its sex module and outro animation, and the cutscene demo preview:[/p][p][/p][h3]Day 1 Chase Sequence[/h3][p]This is the very first gameplay section of Tamer, where Victor meets Hope and they work together to escape some hungry deinonychus. We've included a preview video with this post so you can see what you'll be playing soon![/p][p]We've overlayed audio from our non-combat theme for now, as the gameplay triggers for SFX are still being worked on. We also did a recent recording session with the voice of Victor himself to include some new lines![/p][p]This really helps to elevate the experience and make it feel natural.[/p][p]In particular, this chase includes a lancing segment where Victor will use his spear to end some predators that try to dismount him. You can also experience the jump/duck system we use in our chases here.[/p][p]We're looking for lots of feedback here, so let us know what you think when you get to play it![/p][p][/p][h3]NSFW System Demo[/h3][p]This will essentially be an updated version of the original Galmine NSFW demo.[/p][p]So what has changed? First off, the lighting is vastly improved, as well as the camera system. We've also added a new map, and the voice samples of the characters have been expanded.[/p][p]You'll definitely see and feel a difference here.[/p][p]We will be expanding this part of the demo more as development continues. Expect to see an additional character and map next month![/p][p][/p][h3]Cutscene Preview[/h3][p]Finally, we have a cutscene preview. Lots of people have asked us if Tamer's cutscenes are in-engine or pre-rendered, and the answer is, of course, in-engine! There is not a single second of pre-rendered footage in Tamer, and we're very proud of that.[/p][p]This is being included so people can see how it performs on their machine while it is not fully optimized. We'll be doing an optimization pass later, so we're checking to see how far to go with that.[/p][p][/p][h2]Overall Feedback[/h2][p]We were happy to hear everyone was impressed by the demo! Positive feedback was directed towards the visuals, the energy and presentation of the chase sequence, the writing and character development of the cutscene, and the improvements in the NSFW content.[/p][p][/p][h2]Upcoming Changes[/h2][p]However, we did receive some excellent feedback that some features could use some improvements. Thankfully, these were all things we were already discussing, and we had potential solutions lined up.[/p][p][/p][h3]Dino Lancing[/h3][p]The sections of the map where you lance deinonychus with your spear don't have clear visual indicators that allow you to understand how to properly time your attack. Additionally, the controls were unclear.[/p][p]We have thrown out the old indicator and replaced it with a target that hovers on the dino like the old one, but is easier to see. In addition, two arrows on the left and right collapse inward at a consistent pace to show when to activate your weapon to score a successful hit.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]Obstacle QTE Indicator[/h3][p]While everyone expressed it jumping and ducking on the parasaur was smooth and simple to understand, it was noted that every obstacle has the same setup and can therefore feel repetitive.[/p][p]We've adjusted this by making it so the "success" section of the indicator is on the top if you're jumping and on the bottom if you're ducking. This slightly changes the time and action and feels more natural.[/p][h3][/h3][p][/p][h3]NSFW Content Interaction[/h3][p]This has been requested since our first demo dropped earlier this year, and it's something we still want to explore. With our combat system in full swing, along with finishing the NSFW animation itself, it will take some time, but we'll do our best to add more interactive elements to the love scenes as we get closer to launch, such as hand position, spanking, grabbing, etc.[/p][p][/p][h2]Carnotaurus Warnings[/h2][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink]This week's cutscene preview is from right after Victor and Sheela escape the carnotaurus. Note that, as usual, this is pre-alpha, so there are some animations and many other aspects like VFX that are still in progress.[/p][p]Day 8 is when this narrative break occurs, right after the epic chase sequence. At this point, Victor has won over Trel, Galmine, and Sheela, and they're actively working to build the fort. Trel also starts to really help the group, although whether she's motivated by the goodness in her heart or the need for Victor's insemination remains up for debate.[/p][p][/p][h2]Trel's NSFW Preview[/h2][p]Now that Kacerie's animations are wrapped, we're working on Trel's romance scenes. Since Victor is less experienced and Trel is more dominant, her early encounters have a different flavor from the later ones, as shown in the preview image below:[/p][p][/p][h2]
Book Promos
[/h2][p]We're making some more promo content for the game and book series, so we've started posing the girls for a few lovely pinup shots of them enjoying some good literature.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Look-at Tech[/h2][p]An important part of achieving immersion with games like this is having functional look-at tech, which means the character's eyes appropriately engage with the environment and the characters around them.[/p][p]We now have this up and running, and it makes things so much more alive. It's often subtle touches like these that bring games from A to AA level, and that's definitely what we want to strive for with this production - something that shows we actually care about every level detail.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]What's Next?[/h2][p]Right now, we're working on adding subtitles to all the scenes. First, we need to add the text, and then we'll clean up the presentation so they're not so scrunched.[/p][p]This process will also give us a shot at localization for several key regions, like China.[/p][p][/p][p]Our next major objective is two separate sequences where Victor and Sheela fight against the orange birds from Hope's back in an effort to cull their numbers before they can overrun the cave, while the fort isn't ready yet.[/p][p]We already have a prototype up and running, and construction is underway![/p][p]It's likely that as soon as it's finished that we will add this to the demo build and release it for our Patreons to play.[/p][p]We're also doing some LOD upgrades to the map to bring it up to more modern standards.[/p][p]You can see some key areas we're focusing on in the image below:[/p][p][/p][p]See you next month with more good news![/p][p][/p]
