Warped Sentry reveal

Time for the real post I mentioned! The last few days of streaming have been dedicated to this lady:



This is the Warped Sentry. Much like the Soldier and Scientists, she was a member of the military that was sent to this planet to assist in finding a cure for the virus. Until the planet had its way with her. Now she's just as lust-filled as the rest of the inhabitants. It also had the added effect of giving her a bit of a mutation. She's packing something under those pants, and she's not afraid to use it..

Despite the mental overwrite, she still knows how to use her weapons, though; she'll create a blockade in tight corridors with her riot shield to prevent Alicia from passing by until she's defeated. If you try to get too close to her, she'll hit you hard with a shield bash, knocking Alicia over in just one hit. If you leave her alone long enough, though, she'll pull her shield back and try to hit you with her SMG - it's not a very powerful weapon, though, and it presents the best opportunity to attack her early on. Later powerups could prove to make the shield a bit easier to bypass, as well.

The Warped Sentry will be available as of v.19, the update that's being worked on right now. With any luck, she'll have all of her H-scenes available right from the start - I'm certainly aiming for it! If all goes according to plan, this update will have a whopping 5 new H-animations compared to v.18, which is by far the biggest increase in the history of CPE's development.

Well, that's all from me for now. I'll share one of her H-scenes before the update comes out, as well as a look at the game's new menus - and I should have some other good news to share soon as well!

Another stream today + Stream schedule changes!

Hey everyone! Quick update for you all - yesterday was supposed to be the last day of our marathon stream, but we decided to extend it one more day! Me and Orexius are going to be streaming in about 30 minutes, at 1pm EST, up until about 5pm EST. Here's the link if you don't have it: https://picarto.tv/Anon42

I've also discovered over the past few days that doing slightly shorter streams (~4 hours instead of 6+) more frequently is much more productive for myself - so Crisis Point will be going through some stream scheduling changes very soon! I'm planning on trying to stream at least 4 times a week from now on, for about 4 hours at a time. The main reason behind this change is that my computer chair is insanely uncomfortable, and spending more time than that sitting there ends up killing my legs by the end of the day. Splitting up the time a bit more makes me feel more productive, and much more excited to work - which means the work comes out better and everybody benefits in general.

Anyway, that's enough about that! I'm gonna get ready for the stream, and afterwards, I'll make a real update post for you all to show what we've been working on over the past few days! Hope to see you at the stream!

v.17 and .18 updates!

Hey guys. First off, I'd like to apologize for not updating here in ages - things have been really crazy around my place lately, between work and life in general. That's not a great excuse, but it is what it is. I had no intentions of abandoning my followers here, life just got really busy. Instead of going on about not posting here, however, let's fix that - starting with a list of all the things that have gotten done recently.

UPDATE .17 AND .18 CHANGES
-3rd boss fight finished
-Caves areas have all been reworked with new parallax background
-New collectible added! Split health upgrades - collect 3 to form a full health upgrade. 6 total so far.
-New area introduced (The Catacombs)
-Work started on two new Patron-paid enemies (Hellhound, and another secret one)
-4th boss fight has been planned out, work to begin soon
-Main menu finally added to the game, including a real menu for control customization
-A bunch of new rooms to explore
-Many bugs and minor issues resolved

Those are most of the major things that have been done over the past two updates. I'll list the other, more minor changes at the bottom of this post - but for now, let's get to what I'm doing for the next update.

UPDATE v.19 GOALS
-Finish one of the Patron-paid enemies
-Add an extension to the 3rd boss fight H-scene
-Create a better logo for main menu
-Implement customizable gamepad controls into the options menu
-Add more sound effects to the game
-Create more content (areas)
-Fix more minor issues

This is a list of the things I hope to have done for New Years. I'd like to start speeding up development in the near future if I can, but that'll largely depend on life stuff. I should be moving to a new state and a new home soon, so things should improve dramatically after that once things have stabilized a bit. I should also have an easier time keeping up with updating you guys!

Anyhoo, there have been a few screenshots since the last time I updated here, so here's the links to those (you'll have to click them; built-in image support on Blogger is horrible).

Upcoming enemy, the Hellhound: http://i.imgur.com/LpEaDvh.png

I'd like to start offering more screenshots and videos of new features and enemies in the near future, so keep an eye out for those! Again, I'm really sorry I stopped updating here for so long. I'll do my best to change that in the coming weeks. Thank you all for your patience.

SIDE NOTE: Almost forgot to mention this! Myself and Orexius will be streaming for the next 4 days - Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday - starting at 1pm EST and going until at least 7pm est, possibly later. Hope you guys can stop by! I'll leave the link here, just in case you don't have it yet: https://picarto.tv/Anon42

Streaming + v.16 update!

Hey everybody! Sorry I haven't posted here about v.16's release yet, but I'm about to fix that! I'm also in the process of preparing for another livestream, so I'm going to keep this short.

UPDATE v.16 CHANGES
-Implement new powerup (Phase Shot)
-Fix old H-animations where Alicia's clothing disappeared
-Fly scenes
-Tentacle scenes
-Soldier BE scene
-Scientist BE scene
-Alraune scenes
-Start reworking Caves areas for new parallax background (about halfway done)
-Add animation replay feature to boss battle game over scenes
-Work on more detail animations for Alicia
-Sliding animation
-Create more content (areas) [8]
-Fix more minor issues

This is all the stuff I got done. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get Boss3 finished in time, but I did get everything else I wanted done - however, I promise she'll be done for v.17! Speaking of which..

UPDATE v.17 GOALS
-Really finish the 3rd boss for reals
-Start implementing new enemy
-Finish reworking Caves areas for new parallax background
-More detail animations for Alicia
-Introducing new area!
-Create more content (areas)
-Fix more minor issues

These are my goals for this month. I plan to try and finish it before the 18th if I can, because I have plans for the end of the month. To that end, I'll be streaming a lot - including one now! Hope you guys can join in! https://picarto.tv/Anon42

Stream tomorrow, and cave parallax!

Hey everybody! It's a bit late in the day, so hopefully some of you will see this before tomorrow, but as promised I come with a gif of what I worked on the other day, as well as the date for the next stream. First off, the stream - me and Orexius will once again be hosting a stream tomorrow at 2pm EDT, just like last time. This time may become a new norm, given the recent changes in both of our schedules, but hopefully I'll be able to stay online longer this time.


Second, I bring you this gif: http://i.imgur.com/TLZOwuT.gif

This one is showing off the new parallax scrolling that will be visible in the caves, which is the first area in the game. I've been wanting to revisit them and give them some more visual flair for a while now, so hopefully this will spice up the area a bit! Considering the amount of time it'll take to cover every single cave room that's in the game so far, they probably won't all be done in time for v.16 - but I'll get as many as I can in.


That's all for tonight. I'll make a post tomorrow when the stream begins, as always! Hope you can make it!
