Pic 82: Starry Night

September is going fast and I am working on the next update of Something's In The Air Redux which will be released next week.  I'm working on finishing remaking all the Ariane pics, which I should be able to do except the "House Party" path that requires some set redesign.

The above picture ...

Pic 81: Ariane and Lydia (Part 2)

In late July I shared some Ariane and Lydia pictures from the game, and promised I'd finish the  "tercera" ending.  It is now mostly complete, just a few transition pics away from finishing, but I thought I'd share what I have done so far.

When I looked at the remastered art still left ...

Last week I featured the Veronica side of the Sci-fi Fantasy Festival, this week some Rachel pics.  These two stories cross each other once I worked on one it is an easy transition to work on the other.

I redesigned the comic book cover, using a different font, mostly because I forgot the na...

Hopepunk City 1.1 Beta Patch

I took a break this week from updating SITAR and started working on the Hopepunk City first anniversary patch (version 1.1) and I am far enough in to release a test patch you can try out.

I have not finalized an official release or the promised Android versions yet, but if you have the game, you ...

Pic 79: Veronica at the Festival (and plans for September)

Last months SITAR update contained a fair amount of new material I spent most of the month working on. The nature of the update wove throughout the game, so I had to test the new material by playing through the old.

All the old pictures still in the game made me sad. I still have a lot of work to...

Pic 78: My favorite new pics for SITAR 0.2

I released the latest SITAR update 0.2 on Saturday. See that post for details if you have access.

SITAR 0.2 comes with about 50 new pictures for a new section that didn't exist in SITA, so I want to avoid spoilers. Here then are my favorite updated pics for stuff that has been in SITA since it ca...

Today's set features all the current characters, but I haven't featured a Wendy yet (have I ever?)

This month my main focus has been on new to the game content, but I don't want to spoil any of the new content in a picture collection, and new images of old content is a little slim (hence the reas...

But the rest of these pictures are Patreon exclusives. Most of the pictures I have been doing for SITAR is new never before seen pl...

August Goals

With the first two SITAR updates my focus was on updating old pictures, I will be releasing another update in August, and this time it will contain some actual new content, not just updated renders.

One area of that new content which I won't get into (don't want to spoil it) is a bridge between w...

I mentioned in last week's Pic  post that I am focusing on updating SITA pictures in settings that I have already been updated before.  One obvious set that is in SITA that has been updated is Ariane's house and backyard, which as soon as I finish updating those I'll release version 0.12 (whi...

In early July, I'll be releasing a 1.20 version of Ariane in Paradise to the general public, but thought I would let you Patrons get a week head start. If you already have version 1.10 or higher, download and install this patch.

I've been working on new pictures of the bar in Something's In The Air Redux, but I realized that some of the images require that Stacy's "HooBoy" cover and pictures need to be done first.  You may notice that Stacy has yet another hairstyle on the cover, that is because of this from Rema...

As announced last month, my next project is a Something In The Air remake, with the current working title Something In The Air Redux or SITAR for short. I didn't want to call it "remastered" and the dictionary definition of "Redux" (reliving events) seems to fit the time loop theme I'm going for.
