February is the shortest month of the year, yet we managed to get a lot of work done.
I think it's safe to say we're even slightly ahead of our quarterly schedule, and that's great news.
Here's the debriefing of the work we got done in February:

We may be silent, but we silently work :)
Here's a brief report regarding what we have accomplished in January:
- Procedurally generated Chibi (check the gifs above);
- Animations for chibis: (idle, walk, run, jump, sleep, sit);
- Renpy-like Visual Novel system to display dialogues and allow user input;
- Custom s...

Hello everyone,
starting from the end of 2020 -and for the sake of the transparency that so many "when it's ready" projects lack, here on Patreon- we have decided to share a quarter-by-quarter preview of what you can expect from us in 2021 in terms of game development.
As you should already know by now, the ongoing transition from Renpy to Uni...

Hi everyone,
let's sum up our progress for this month:
- we are done rigging both dolls and all outfits, porting them to Unity (which will allow us to animate dolls and swap skins pretty easily);
- while we were at it, we have also added a few accessories/outfits for legs (stoc...
While Ren'py has (had?) its uses, being a very convenient engine to create simple visual novels with none to basic animations, our games never were "simple" novels.
As many of you have witnessed over the years, we have always added complex minigames and advanced animations that pushed Ren'py to its limits, while forcing us to constantly struggle with its limitations.

What's up Gentlemen,
Here's what has been added since the last update:
Hi everyone,
First of all:
Feel free to join us on Discord, there's a lot more development-related stuff we discuss in Patrons-only #devs_corner: It would feel like watching us (and our cats) working, everyday. :)
That said, let's share a quick update on our work: 2020-07-20 16:40:23 +0000 UTC View Post
We know, it's been a long time.
And we know, there seems to be a virus around that is preventing others from working.
But guess what? That wasn't our case.
Covid-19 took its toll on our freedom, forced us to rearrange our everyday life, it even took people we knew away from us (RIP, you all).
But if it really wants to stop us fro...
Witty puns from movies from the 70s aside, sorry for the delayed Patreon update.
Flu (or whatever it was) happened on last saturday night, and let me tell you, that hit me hard.
However, "hard" was not hard enough, and poor virus couldn't possibly know that his host was one tough motherf**** with a deadline to meet.
And since I've decided that NOTHING

If he was still alive, I like to think Bob Ross would have loved this (mysterious) city I have drawn for one of the endings...
...But then again: who cares? It took me just a few hours, It was fun, and I've loved every minute of it...Which at the end of the day, is all that matters :)
So long story short: I've been pushing all of the endings today, and I'm currently directing them...

Dear people of the interwebs,
it's with great pride (and a bit of sadness) that I hereby announce that we have added the last scene to the game!
I can now work full speed on the three ending sequences (good/neutral/bad), and for how rough it was sketched, the sequence from picture #1 serves as a proof that I got back at drawing ...

According to this poll, most of you guys wanted Mistle to be featured as a side character in Ciri Trainer, at some point.

First of all, I just wanted to share the excitement from receiving the cutest of Ciri -japanese- figurines a few days ago.
Tried to mimic our Ciri fighting pose, but unfortunately, it's not as flexible...Still the cutest thing I've ever seen and will be our mascot until the end of Ciri Trainer development. ^^

"Late" update, and for a reason:
after a few years of saturdays/sundays weekly updates (I guess we've started this "weekly trend" prior to starting GIBC development, in 2017) we've decided to move it to Monday(s), as it made the most sense from a "past week accomplishments"/"new week's resolutions" standpoint...I guess.
So without further ado, let's go straight to the checklists ...

Literally, that's what we've been putting into Ciri Trainer, so far.
I thought Chapter 2 ending deserved a nice voiceover, so I've been writing/dubbing/mixing it myself and boom: here it is, in the above screenshot.
Despite my rusty acting skills (I've been working as dubber/radio host in a previous life, lol)...
