Today I am proud to announce that the next game for the members area will be…The Photographer Part 2!

The game will be a continuation and sequel to the original photographer game, and work will work in a very similar way. There will be multiple characters, and multiple endings with each of them just like the first one.

The original Photographer was a way to bring together all the dates that I had created at that point, and the sequel will share that. Expect every date since Photographer Part 1 make an appearance, as well as many new ones- notably the two on the image below (the brunette is Melyssa, and the blonde is Nikki).

This is already turning out to be much easier to make than Miranda. In the last week I’ve made as many images as I did in the first two months of making her date.

I’ll hopefully be making weekly posts on a Friday from now until release.

As some of you may have noticed, progress with Miranda has been a little slow. This is partly of course due to the larger size and higher detail of the images, but there’s other reasons. Although I didn’t really announce it, I was also quite ill earlier in the year (hence I ended up doing the tutorials instead of working on a game), which also means I started later. I did the math and at the current rate of work, assuming Miranda ends up the size I want her, I won’t be finished until April.

Normally I make two games per year, so this isn’t really acceptable to me.

After wrestling with this for a while, I have decided that the best thing to do is delay her until next summer. She’s a summer game anyway, so it makes more sense.

I have therefore decided on another game I want to make. It’ll be a large game, but also one that I can produce a little quicker than normal. I will be announcing what it is next Friday.

Miranda’s game will be released. It will just be at a slightly later date. I’ve included here one final preview image until we see her next year.

Once you’ve persuaded Miranda to spend the day with you, one of the player’s options will be to visit some local ruins.

Miranda may also be willing to let you take a few photos of her standing by them.

Two more preview images for you all today. Both are from the introductory level, will which also be the free demo when the game is released.

Only a small update with one picture today.

As we get closer to release I’ll be doing an update every week with multiple images, as I usually do.

Also, just to confirm a few thing from the comments section from my last post, this game should be similar in size and structure to Maddison and Rachel Part 3. You will also have the option to select gender and ethnicity.

And yes, there will be threesomes.

Fist of all, in case you haven’t noticed the massive image on the front page, Katie has now been released for free. Find it, play it, download it and keep it from the games section.

Today I am also happy to announce the subject of my next game will be…Miranda.

Don’t remember her? She was hot blonde one who sells you the boat in Zoe. I’ve been wanting to do another game set in the same location ever since the first one. I’ve also had a number of people say they like her, so she seems like a good choice.

For Miranda, I also want to try and take these games into the HD era a bit more. I am working to make the images much more detailed than usual, and creating them at the larger size of 1280 x 753. If you have a smaller monitor, don’t worry – you will also be able to play at the normal size of 850 x 500.

Lastly today, I have found a solution for those who use Chrome and can’t play the downloaded games. If you are one of these people, here you go : http://www.vdategames.com/help.html It requires some altering of the properties box, but don’t be scared if you’re not used to doing that. It’s very safe.

Since I am working to make the Miranda images as detailed as possible, production of the game may take a little longer, but I’m confident it will be worth it. As usual, I will be posting updates and preview images over the next few months.

The final part of my tutorial series is now online. You can find it here : http://www.vdategames.com/tutorial.html

On a quick note, if you were waiting for the victoria 4 base to go down in price, it is currently in the daz3d sale! Buy it for $5.99 here : http://www.daz3d.com/victoria-4-2-base

Remember, Katie will be released for free on July 4th!

I am also going to wait just one more blog post until I announce what the next members game will be.

Tutorial 4b is now online and can be read here.

This should give you all the remaining elements of coding needed. I will be doing one more tutorial to act as a conclusion and cover anything I’ve missed. If you have any requests, add a comment and I’ll try to add them.

Today I am also announcing the next free game which will be…Katie.

Katie is a slightly older game, but one which I did update with new images and the new engine a couple of years ago. There are five endings to find with many ways to achieve them.

Katie will be available for free, Friday the Forth of July!

Hopefully in my next blog post I should be ready to announce what the next members area game will be.

The next tutorial has now been added to the set. Part 4a : Coding Part 1 – http://www.vdategames.com/tutorials/part4a.html

Next week when I add the tutorial, I’ll also be announcing the next free game and some details on the next members games!

Tutorial 3b is online. This one covers the various ways you can make backgrounds and animations.
