Yo yo,

So... it's been... awhile. Gone through a lot of rough patches back-to-back-to-back. Pondered giving up on the project in there, but I managed to push through and get work I wanted done two years ago done a couple months ago.

As usually, this was available to Patreon supports early in October.  It includes various glitch-fixes found by them:

You save are broken.

It's gonna happen at least 1 or 2 more times.

This is running Godot 4 so...

Vulkan is the current back end.

This loses some hardware support because writing GLES2 shaders for Godot 3 is starting to get limiting and cumbersome.

Also, the plugin I use for dailogue had Godot 4.X exclusive features I needed.

I can't run the window's build under wine, so I'm just kinda exporting and praying like I do with MacOS

The new scene is down the following route:

Fun house > Pull out > Push it in > Show no regret

Revisit fun house

The jitter shader is back

This time not on top of text

It can be turned off in the settings

Enter/Space now skips dialogue scrolling

A shit load of internal redesigning, rewriting, re-implementing, and re-building. Turns out a game made for a game jam isn't exactly "well designed software".

Next update is gonna introduce some major shifts to CC. I'm planning on axing the branching paths idea. It's far to big of a scope for me to work on alone. Additionally, I would rather focus on the content I'm more interested in making: the infestation stuff. No ETA on the next update, but hopefully it won't be a multi-year gap.

I'm currently just enjoying the holidays, and trying to relax after a stressful 2021 and 2022. Hope you can find some rest during this holiday season

Comments:

Love this guy's games, glad to hear he's not done with art altogether and just quitting Patreon to reorganize his life in a manner that best fits him.I 100% understand what he means by not liking time constraints. Art's supposed to be about self-expression, not meeting arbitrary deadlines, and the truth of the matter is that Patreon's business model just isn't made for everyone. At least he had the guts to admit it and drop it, unlike many game devs and artists that just keep going even when it's obviously not working out for anyone involved. I'd much rather eventually get small passion projects pop up now and again than keep waiting for one big never-ever project.

Quite an intriguing game you have here, Can't wait to see what you do with it. Ngl, I'd find it interesting if you could just not pull out at that first scene and see what happens. lol. Good luck with further development! I shall keep watch with a curious gaze.EDIT: Uh, I reread my comment and realized I kinda made it unclear what I meant, when I was talking about "If you could just not pull out" I meant like leaving your schlong in after the buggley boo already went in, like an option to "Ride it out" or "Stay in" 

This game is honestly not interesting, but if you like fucked up insect content you'll probably like this dev's other game, Night Crawlers. Don't look into it further if you don't like insect content though.

Conclusion:

Chitinous Carnival is an in-development fetish horror game centered around urethral play, infestation/parasitism, and other fetishes. Explore a mysterious carnival as you try to keep your sanity.   Or, maybe you are looking to lose it?
