Greetings, minions. July has almost ended, and I feel the wax and wane of my shadowy powers shifting. We grow ever closer to Halloween, the Anax's favorite day of the year. I will release Phantom, which I have already finished the writing and manips, and I focus now on the music and sound effects, so it will release as foretold on Samhain.
I have also been hard at work on Cereborgs and Succubi as you may have seen with my uploads on Hypnopics-Collective. I still only make about 11.00 a month on Patreon, and I give the Hypnopics-Collective 50.00 a month so... apparently you would not want me to run your business, unless you want it ran into the ground. I focus as much as I can while living life and having to work, but I would remind everyone that I can only release material faster if I can find a way to make money. Hopefully, I will figure a way to do that, which I will release E-Books for sell that will tell the stories between my free interactive novels.
An example will be between Slugs and Bugs and the sequel, I will release an E-Book on Amazon that folks can buy to learn of the events that lead to the next installment. I have thought about writing a 'Lore' book as well once I have released all the current projects that will cover every one of my characters, their backgrounds, maps of places, histories, and so forth. Maybe that will sell well to my fans, all four of you!
Anyway, I will be updating you again next month as I work on Cereborg: Inception. I shall write the first chapter for each of the three starting characters, and then release it to get interest in the story (and hopefully coins in my coffers). Then I will move on and do the first two chapters on 'Of Sex and Souls', and proceed like that, rotating between stories.

I have released a very short preview for Halloween on 2017. I will be working on this during and after finishing Cereborg: Inception. Enjoy! You can try it at Hypnopics Collective - Here!
Working on Cereborg: Inception
Greetings, minions of evil! I am taking a moment away from
my projects to give you an idea of what I am doing. I have been working
on Cereborg: Inception. To help give you an idea of the vast process
something like Slugs and Bugs takes, just like this one, I first have to create
a rough draft. I have done that, it took several days.
Next, I have to do the design. Therefore,
for example, for the Cereborg title screen, I literally spent over an hour
making the animated gif, and then it took another hour for me to decide on the
right blue for the text on the front screen. I then wrote a bit about
each of the main 'playable' characters, and carefully chose precise color text
for each one. In other words, in a week, I spent almost 20 hours and I
have finished 5 pages. Well, not finished...
The next thing that I will do, starting
this every eve, is finding pictures I can use for manipulations. This can
mean so much. I will spend days now, weeks, scouring the internet to find
models that have enough consistent photo shoots that I can use to make the
scenes from scratch, like I did with Justine Joli. Then a month or so
from now after I spend eight hours a day, every day, looking for shots, I will
have to spend months making the manips.
Then I will spend weeks writing the scenes
and story, and finally, I will spend another couple of weeks recording my sound
effects and trying to pick music that works.
So, there you have it! I am hoping
to release this Cereborg story within a year from now. Remember, if you
happen to be rich, and want to see more of my work come at much faster rates,
then please Patreon me! In addition, if you cannot spare money, fret not,
this work will be free to all! It's just that I work 45 - 50 hours a
week, and then work on this every night.
Oh, I just realized, I should probably
post a link to the preview I made of another project I am working on...
