In 1978, Petula was the fourth of six children, raised in a family marked by hardship, with three of her siblings dying at a young age. This cast a dark shadow over their home, making it hard for her to grow up carefree. Though she was an intelligent girl, the lack of a safe environment and the weight of poverty held her back, eventually leading her to drop out of school to support her family.<...

Another day, another hike. Destination unknown. At least for now. There's light at the end of the tunnel though, lucky for her and lucky for us.
It's been a nice summer... Sunshine, joy, heat, pleasantness and work of course. It isn't always easily combined with time consuming hobbies like this one. Where are we at now? Over half way. Last time I mentioned the worst renders were updated...
This building was once a thriving hub of activity, a magnificent factory during the industrial boom. Built in the mid 1900s, it manufactured everything from metal parts to complex machinery (hint, hint). The walls, now crumbling and coated with dust and dirt. Its brothers and sisters sadly went through the same faith. The Wasteland they called it.
Once in a while I will post a photo sho...
There is always time in life to reflect. It doesn't need to involve a mirror, nor do we need to travel to the sacred lands of Mount Koya, or install ourselves in a North Italian monastery to meditate. We just need to find the purpose in ourselves, the why.
Annelise's life may be a mess, but the path out of it is clear to her. Dedication, reflection, and, in the end, the acceptance ...
Here I come, you can't hide.
It's the Fugees indeed! A plus point for those who remembered.
It's been two weeks, and as promised, here's a bi-weekly game update. How I usually start a new update is by writing, writing, writing. This time, it seemed like a good idea to also fix some weak points in the game. Content-wise, everything will stay the same, but visually, some environments ...
The new update! And not only that, have a closer look.
This one fell a little bit into the water, but it swam right back up. Sorry for that.
My goal was to finish it around the 15th last month, as I basically didn't have a free weekend anymore until now to work on it. But it was a mess with render times, settings and scenes that were too dark, so that didn't work out. Anyways it's her...
What am I up to!?
Well the update is moving along. I'm trying to upgrade the quality and expressions for this version. Putting some extra attention there, so I hope it will objectively turn out well. The goal is to finalize the update in around 3 weeks or so hopefully.
Summer is also around the corner, I don't think it will change much update wise, but the next next update is proba...
Dear constituents
We must be around midway on the new update. What's it going to be about?
Art.
Quite broad, one might think, and indeed it is. Yet that's precisely the essence of art. It has the potential to be anything or nothing, a form, a speck, or even an intangible concept. "Answer to a wall". It's a quote I like that says a lot I think.
That makes one more question that...
Turns out polls don't have picture possibilities... Go figure.
Fill in the poll by looking at the previous post. Thanks!
You got it all wrong guys! By no means is this a miss pageant. Much much better. It's you changing the world for a better future.
Pick one of the ladies that you'd like to have a bigger role in Aracelis. The role is set in stone, but the looks are still a mystery.
It supposed to be for the highest tiers, but obviously a draw could easily happen. That ain't good. So I added the other...
So I actually completely forgot about the whole snip bits behind the scene Patreon bonuses. Yeah, I know....
Here I am. This image was planned as the end all be all (last image) for the update 0.1. Notice the black nails? Indeed. Seems like a copy of the hand that hit Annelise on the butt at the party, making out with Carmen. It would have caused some drama...
In the end I left it out...
Wohoo. Version 0.1 is ready for take off. A little jolly just to break the ice!
What's happening? I'm not too much of a spoiler person so you'd have to find out yourself I'm afraid. When will the next update be ready? Truly nobody knows.
Other than that I will contradict myself in this next sentence already and add a small caveat/spoiler about the update.
First of all, the way ...
Dear chaps,
Time has past and we're all still alive and kicking. Hooray! It's the small things that matter in life after all. Eat your vegetables and stay healthy.
What I would also like to share is a small "looking back" at the past 2 months. Basically the first time I'm doing an update for a crowd. Not many, but that's irrelevant. Whether it's 5 or 50 people who show any sign of in...
Will Annelise immigrate into the wild? Will she become a painter? As it is New Year, we can go a little bit more adventurous than usual.
So what's happening? Concerning the update, I think I'm a bit over half-way when it comes to the overall workload. So fine, fine. Timing wise; I don't see myself giving release dates a month in advance or so, it sounds a bit too far into the future for...
A Merry Christmas! And that not even once, twice, nor thrice (joke), but even more!
Have a scroll through all the holiday wishes cards of the developers community on F95Zone.
Cheers!
Citizens,
Professor Hellic made his entrance into the story. Will the new update be about him? Hell no, but at some point it will. Here's a little sneak peak into his brilliant mind.
The next update will mainly be about Annelise and her first evening with the new flatmates. When it will be ready is a mystery. But there's a good amount of progress in these 2 weeks, which is hopeful.
Hi humans
Thank you for showing some interest, or even paying a few bucks already on this early project. I really appreciate it!
I've been working on this project for a while, or let's say I've been struggling with Daz3D for a while, so I'm thrilled to have a little piece out there now in the world, which is Partly to get some feedback, so feel free :)
Thanks again a...
