Woah, woah, woah.... Does this mean you won't be updating Ponk Quest with regular updates once its finally released? Anonymous
That was the plan, to release V1, then add updates to it bfeq style till its done.

Where do you code? I mean language. From what I know, flash games could be done in Java, c++ and others. So,what's your choice? PS I understand how important it is to make something new,not just another porn flash,so IMHO pink quest was a good idea.
I’m coding it inside of flash which uses AS3 which is pretty similar to Javascript.

Is it just you running through the game making sure everything works or do you have some testers helping you with it? If it just you, why not ask some of your patreon's if they want to help test? Anonymous
It’s a local build problem. Say I make a change. Then once I build that swf, id have to upload it and wait for feedback. In the meantime i would work on solving another problem, and when thats fixed there could be another problem, not impacting the problem earlier in the compiled build. Constantly rebuilding the swf and seeing what works and doesn’t is a task i can only do myself, otherwise i’d have to wait for people to find problems, upload the build, wait a day or so and then fix that only to find another problem which needs to be adressed, or the new build introduced an older problems. Doing this locally i can go from code to build to code as i have a good idea of whats occurring in the debugger, but with a non stable build bug hunting is a different manner.

Yeah you really should stick to what people ask you to do when you promise them thats what you will do. This fucking game should have been a side project not a thing that people wanted turned into some fucking time monstrosity. The real question is how much porn could have been made if you just made this shit a pet project? Anonymous
Indeed. I’m pretty sure after it’s done i’ll stick to self contained porn games.

so how much work was taken away from the game by creating that animation? we could have been playing the game today hell we should have been playing it last year Anonymous
Not much. The versions 1 assets are done, its just a huge manner of tying it all together. For example
You speak to pony A, and it says its dialogue. Now you speak to it again and it should use other dialogue, so you have to store its variables and change it from speaking over. Then you have items, tasks, and once you add that code into the mix you have to keep track of that, so if you get an item x, go to y, and then talk to z, if the variables a rent properly connected then the incorrect sequence plays, or dialogue is broken and you cant pass. Now amplify that for an entire town, and it becomes a game of changing code, writing it all down, then recompiling the swf and going to said area to try it out to see if it works or not, shutting it down, redoing, seeing i that breaks it or not and then doing it all over again.
In hind sight i think after ponk quest is done with the current world i’ll stick to stand alone games for porn that don’t require such complex connection.

Hey Tiara, how've you been? I heard that you've isolated yourself in a bunker to work in complete solitude. That fact withstanding, I figured I'd still make an attempt to get a peep out of ya. (If you need us to send a rescue team blink three times, and fill your shoes with tomato soup.)
Bunkering down to get the game finished. Have an exclusive shot from the studio!
