December 24th Update

Hi everyone.

First, if case you haven’t noticed it, Jennifer is now available as a free game. You can find her in the games section.

Second, I’ve been doing the advent calendar for a few years now, but haven’t posted up the old images anywhere. So, as an extra Christmas present, here are all the previous images in one big zip file for those who are newer to the site, or those who didn’t save them in previous years : www.vdategames.com/files/advents.zip

Finally, Merry Christmas, and I’ll see you all next week.

December 11th Update

Today I’m very pleased to announce that “Tara Part Three: The Assignment” is finished and ready for release. Overall I’m really happy with how it has turned out. It’s been lots of work, and exceeded my initial plans in terms of game size and complexity.

There are a total of 1291 images in the game plus a few other associated images taking the total over 1300. I should also mention that 286 of them are high quality animated gifs. Most of these are in the extensive sex scenes. There are seven main endings to find, and plenty of the usual options and variations within the scenes.

Of course, what you can discover and experience whilst playing the game depends entirely on the choices you make. It’ll be well worth spending a little time playing the game and figuring out what actions lead to what outcomes.

This game concludes the Tara Trilogy and will be found in the members section alongside parts one and two.

Don’t miss out!

Have fun playing and I look forward to your feedback.

December 6th Update

 

More from dsp3000 on Tara Part 3…

Many of you have probably been wondering what has happened to the imminent release of Tara Part Three. Some of you may have been disappointed that it wasn’t released last Friday as predicted.

Well I can tell you that there’s none more disappointed than me.

Let me explain…

Last week was meant to be the big final push to complete everything. After a productive weekend, and a successful Monday, my computer suddenly crashed. It was a proper blue screen of death moment followed by several unsuccessful reboots. Fortunately, experience means that I am very disciplined with backing up work so I was lucky to lose very little of the Tara game.

I did however lose a lot of valuable production time.

The following two days were spent rebuilding a computer with a burnt out processor, recovering files, reinstalling software and files, followed by some tentative testing to eliminate causes. I had another less serious crash a couple of days later so I’m now using a completely new set up.

Today (Sunday) has been the first time I’ve had a full day back on the project and things seem to be pretty stable.

In terms of progress, the game is so achingly close to being finished. I’m up to 1237 images with just a handful left to create. I could theoretically have the game completed by the end of tomorrow, but I don’t want to promise anything until it’s been delivered safely to Chaotic.

Here are a few images from the scene with Maria and Holly (which is so hot it killed a computer), plus an image with Amy and Lola who you do get to meet in the game.

The next time you here from me should be an announcement about the final release date.

Wish me luck!
