They&#8217;ve helped me make up my mind about how this game should work quite a lot, even if I&#8217;m not exactly going where the polls tell me to with everything.<\/p>\n<p>For perspectives, the plan is this. The game will mostly function in first person, but I&#8217;m going to add a &#8216;cinematic mode&#8217; button. Whenever you see it, you can click the icon (probably a clapper board), and it&#8217;ll switch to third person for a better view of what&#8217;s going on. It&#8217;ll be optional though. If you want to ignore the icon and just the play the game in first person, you can.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m reserving the right to just have it switch between first and third though. Having the switching option\u00a0will probably mean rending two sets of images for things like the sex scenes (one set for each angle), and if it becomes too much work, I&#8217;ll probably remove it and just have the game switch between first and third person whenever it seems appropriate.<\/p>\n<p>In order to reduce the amount of images I need to create, I&#8217;m also going to skip the option for ethnicity just this once. They&#8217;ll be back for Mia, but for this game I&#8217;ll just be having the gender options.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what each of the genders player characters will look like.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-966\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1-300x176.jpg\" alt=\"intro1\" width=\"300\" height=\"176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1-768x452.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1-1024x602.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1-720x424.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro1.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve now fully started production of the game, and have a nice pile of renders completed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-967\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16-300x176.jpg\" alt=\"intro16\" width=\"300\" height=\"176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16-768x452.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16-1024x602.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16-720x424.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-968\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b-300x176.jpg\" alt=\"intro16b\" width=\"300\" height=\"176\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b-768x452.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b-1024x602.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b-720x424.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/intro16b.jpg 1700w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>There is also one final character I&#8217;d like to introduce this week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-969\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1-270x300.jpg\" alt=\"dylan1\" width=\"270\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1-270x300.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1-768x853.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1-300x333.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1-720x800.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.vdategames.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/dylan1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 270px) 100vw, 270px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is Dylan.
