The Status of CoA, TSP, TA, and more!
5 years ago
So, thanks to a kind comment on FA, it's been brought to my attention that... finding out info about any of these projects lately is REALLY tough! I guess it would be! but I never really thought about it until that comment. SO, I'm making a journal here for anybody who wishes to know just what the heck is going on with Chronicles of Acorn, Taking Sally(s) Pie, Team Acorn, our patreon and more!
A lot has certainly changed in the past few months. :) Well, last year in general really!
As some of you know, Team Acorn was temporarily(Well, permanently at first) disbanded! There were lots of reasons for this, both personal between
sallyhot and myself and then work related. Sallyhot just lost his flow for awhile, he needed a break from it all, so production on TSP halted completely and the patreon sorted withered by until
AUSARMY took the reigns from him. Anyway, in December of last year, Team Acorn returned officially, with Sallyhot fully back into art, and me as well! as I had taken a long break and even made a journal about possibly leaving the art biz for good for awhile. SO! It's been great getting back into it, and Team Acorn is now far from dead. :) Sallyhot and I are back at it! And we got a lot of plans going forward with both new and old projects.
So, how about Taking Sally(s) Pie? The comic everyone seems to love and hate! Love, for how sexy and good it is, but hate for how damn long it takes for a new page! Well, technically, TSP finished with page 10! The first issue of it anyway. :) When Sallyhot decided to take a break, page 10 was his last page, and I decided to look for a new artist to continue on where he left off. SO! I decided the original TSP was done, ending the now "Issue #1" at page 10! AusArmy took on Issue #2, and completed a total of 8 wonderful pages, continuing the sexy story which I edited and rewrote based on Sallyhot's original idea. I'll be posting pages 2-8 sometime soon! Though I'm not sure when I'll find the time to colour them. Time will tell! Even so, I'm sure you guys want to know if there will be more pages. Well! Issue #2 is officially finished at 8 pages. So where it goes from here, is up in the air at the moment! I will say though, that Sallyhot has expressed an openness to working on Issue #3 and finishing what he started! So stay tuned, because someday Taking Sally(s) Pie will make a comback! For right now, it's on hiatus, as Sallyhot and I are working on a new project that we are both more than interested in, and part of the reason TSP took so long, was because the more Sallyhot worked on it, the more he realized, he didn't care for the smut he was drawing anymore! So this new project is something he's super into, and I'll be talking about it in a bit!
Now, Chronicles of Acorn! This project might seem like.. the game that you've heard of many times by now, but have never played or seen gameplay of! However, if you're a patron of ours, you've definitely been given many chances to try it out! And many more will follow(Especially tonight), because I'm still working on it, creating new areas, battles, stories, and we're getting new sprites for the battles! Today I'm actually working on it some more! and I'll be sending the patrons of www.patreon.com/pokebuns a new playable build when I'm done working tonight. :)
As for why I'm not sharing publicly yet... I want to! I've always wanted to. :) however, when we began the project in 2016 or was it.. 2017? Sallyhot wanted to wait on a public demo until we had a nice polished build to send for everyone to enjoy. SO! to this day, we haven't yet reached the point where we feel the game is polished and big enough for a public demo! Maybe we should just suck it up and post it! but.. it's getting closer and closer to that place we want! So just hold on a little longer! If you want to help support us and by extension support the game development, you can visit our patreon and donate! The more time we have at home working on things, the faster we can update our projects and especially CoA! :)
Of course, we realize the world is odd right now and a lot of folks are struggling financially, so even if you can't help by donating, spreading the word and supporting us with comments and such are incredibly helpful and motivating :) Thank you guys!
As far as what specifically is being worked on for CoA right now, aside from implementing fresh fully new battle sprite sheets for Princess Sally and now Bunnie Rabbot, I'm working on implementing Fiona into the story of Episode 3! I lost a lot of progress on a map I was working on when my hard drives died a month ago... so I'm also working on redoing the map and writing some new story events to introduce Fiona and add her to the party. I'll keep you guys updated soon on progress for CoA!
Lastly, what's going on for the patreon, Sallyhot, AusArmy and myself these days?
The patreon itself has been renamed to Pokebuns instead of Team Acorn, as I decided a rebranding to fit the new direction of the art I wanted to create was fitting. so, the old link: www.patreon.com/teamacorn no longer works. If you'd like to see all the posts and art from that patreon, all I did was change the name and link! The patreon hasn't changed, so all our backlog of art is still there for any patreon to enjoy! :) Our new url is www.patreon.com/Pokebuns
Well, AusArmy is still a part of the patreon, but he's taken a step back to deal with personal matters. He and I have a good, amazing longstanding friendship and partnership and we have some amazingly awesome plans for a new comic strip that will be really cute, sexy and fun later down the road.
PokeBuns was our new big project, but once again, AusArmy needed to step away due to irl things, thus when offering Sallyhot the position, he was glad to take it over as he's really into the story and content! That is what the new project is! :) PokeBuns! A sexy pokemon themed furry comic written by me and drawn by Sallyhot, coloured by me! The comic has 3 pages on patreon atm that AusArmy has worked on, they're gorgeous! However, Sallyhot wants to start things from scratch and he's helped me rewrite the story a bit to be a little more kinkier in some spots. All the characters involved are anthro OCs of mine, really sexy buns that we're sure you guys will like! The pokemon will be Gardevoir of course! among other sexy and popular choices like Braixen ;) I'm actually planning on doing some polls so folks can help decide what pokemon they'd like to see in the comic. It'll be fun! Anyway, this whole week, Sallyhot has been working on the first new page!
PokeBuns will be much like what TSP was converted to. A series of comics, with issues spanning around 10 pages in average. I realize some folks might see this and think "Another project for you guys to never get done?" and yeah! I don't blame you for thinking that if you are! Still, this particular project is mine. ;) Unlike TSP, or Sub-Routines. This comic is my baby! and not only am I super passionate about it, but Sallyhot is too! I don't intend to let this one go, and aside from that, Sallyhot and I REALLY want to keep a good and consistent work schedule so we can earn more on Patreon, enough to hopefully help sustain us now that the virus makes it impossible to find work! :/
So ya.. I know I write really rambly but I hope this helps update you guys on what's going on with us right now and our various projects. :)
If you'd like to support us and our projects/art, take a look at our patreon: www.patreon.com/pokebuns
I do video game streams with Sallyhot and solo often, and on voice chat! So if you'd like to come hang with us, I enjoy interacting with the chat and answering questions! Come follow me at twitch.tv/blazeymix
Finally, if you have any questions or anything, please ask in the comments, PM me, or join the Team Acorn Discord! https://discord.gg/Te6Sk4J
