Ask me anything

It isn't my focus right now. I personally don't like doing two large projects of the same IP.

Once Blue Star Episode 4 is out the door, after Overbreed Episode 1 is done, I'll ask if people would rather another Overbreed episode or another Rabbit.Hole episode.

No point in asking before Overbreed Episode 1 is done, since comparing three released episodes to one unreleased episode isn't exactly equal footing.

I'm keeping it on my radar but it's in an awkward spot where I fear it might be a bit too absurd to justify production on.

And by that I mean that the whole appeal of the project to me is the idea of just completely normalizing the idea and downplaying the action. So like you've got DVa drenched head to toe in cum handling seven dicks at once, but that's just being off to one side of the camera's peripheral, as the camera is focusing on the shy nerdy guy standing off to the side with one of those old mechanical ticker counters, and the reporter is casually talking to him about how he doesn't have any interest in participating but he was really excited to be given the opportunity to do statistical analysis and compute averages for the event.

I find that sort of idea both extremely amusing and extremely arousing--I love the idea of sex being completely normalized in society, world-wide free-use kind of stuff--but I understand I am very much in a niche audience there, and that most people don't care about the nerdy guy who is more turned on by spreadsheets than by plowing the hot girl. Most people want the camera to focus on the hot girl, which is very much not what Triple-Digit would be.

I intend to revisit the idea and see if I can't thread the needle of serving up the absurdity that is my personal interest in the project, while also serving a more mainstream interest for the people who aren't me. But that's a pretty difficult needle the thread, as I am sure you can imagine.

So it may take a few project cycles before I get the idea baked to a point where I would feel comfortable investing in it. As much as I make these projects for me first and foremost, I do need to make my money back on them, so there has to be outside interest in the ideas too. This is my job, after all.

She also has an unfinished dominatrix outfit I put together for storyboard Overbreed Episode 1. It should be in the 2023 Content Dump pack. I think those are the only outfits she currently has. Are you looking for something im particular?

Sadly no. At this point I think it's a lost cause.

Maybe if I end up building a project involving Asari, it'll get kicked into high priority and be properly addressed. But as it is right now, there is just not enough residual interest by anyone for getting it done.

Blue Star Episode 4, my next big project after Overbreed Episode 1, isn't even a guarantee of it, because it is a Jack video.

If you really looked through my Twitter, then you'd see I currently have a 15-minute SFM video that's currently in the dubbing stage, slated to be released next month. As well as the estimated-to-be-an-hour-long SFM project that is Overbreed, which currently has over 20 minutes of animation built for it.

I feel like those two alone should answer your question.

I feel like I've answered this at least three times now.

If there will be, it will be a very long time from now. My next two projects are Overbreed Episode 1 and Blue Star Episode 4. That already locks me in for at, optimistically, 3 years. I don't want to constrain Rabbit.Hole to the requirement of having to fit 8-to-10 minute videos. It's a project that I want to keep entirely unchained, capable of being as long or as short as it needs to be.

Should Rabbit.Hole Episode 4 come to pass, and it ends up being less than 8 minutes long, then that will have been because the idea was less than 8 minutes long, not because I forced it to be less than 8 minutes long.

The reason why I throw the reality into question at all is because in general I don't like having multiple large projects in the same IP at the same time. And when it comes to Overwatch projects, I will pick Overbreed over Rabbit.Hole any day of the week, because I think it is a much stronger project, narratively, thematically, creatively, and sexually.

Once Overbreed Episode 1 is done and Blue Star Episode 4 is deep in production, I will revisit the question. I don't like having more than 2 big projects scheduled out at a time, because we're already looking at a timescale measured in years here. I don't know what the next big project after Blue Star Episode 4 will be. It may be Rabbit.Hole. It may not be. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

Seeing how I got DMCA'd into never using Samus again, I suspect it'll be a pretty long while. At least a few years after Nintendo goes bankrupt and their IP goes public domain.

Corsair, the Phazon hexology's spiritual successor, is going to take a long while to build up to its swing at Hiveship. Especially since I have so many other projects to work through.

Yes.

Beyond just a general disinterest, there is also the very real issue that Source Filmmaker simply cannot do the aesthetic justice. The engine simply doesn't have the capacity to render cel-shaded aesthetics nearly as well as, say, Guilty Gear can. As a consequence, anime-aesthetic models tend to just look... not-good in Source.

The engine is much better suited to more grounded aesthetics. I'd say that games like Bioshock Infinite are right at the limit of how stylized you can get before Source's supported shaders start to break down.

I'm fine.

No one's sent in a question worth answering.

Not to say no one's sent in questions. There's been plenty. Just none worth answering.

Stupid questions like "what's the current project," which you could answer for yourself in about 3.7 nanoseconds by just visiting my Twitter, where I post about what I am working on (and often share WIPs) literally every day. Uninteresting questions like "are there any outfits planned for this character" or "have you ever considered using this anime character" - if I had plans for the outfits, again you'd hear about them on Twitter; and I don't care about anime characters, don't waste your time asking me about them.

Honestly, 90% of the questions people send in could be answered by just spending 3 minutes scrolling through my Twitter posts. So they're not worth my answering here and taking up the three dozen bytes of storage space on the server database.

Your question here is honest-to-god the most interesting question I've had people send in since May. That's how dull it's been.

You can do whatever you want with them. Use them in SFM, use them in other programs, modify them to your heart's content, use them as a base to make your own assets.

All I ever ask for is credit for the work I did.
