New Update - A Shift in Direction (Without Abandoning the Goal)

Hey everyone,

First of all, sorry for the long silence. It’s been a while since the last update. A big part of that was me getting stuck in my own head a bit. Second-guessing decisions, juggling too many systems at once, and trying to move the project forward without feeling confident enough to talk about it publicly as some upgrades are not as visible to the outside but improve the und...

FratUniversity Update (Windows only)

This update is very much a foundation update. A bit tech-demo-ish still but it introduces some important new systems and characters.

Got a bit too far into fixing some performance issues so no story update yet. Since the addition of hair settings this performance update was definitely necessa...

FratUniversity 3D Tech Demo Story Mode (Dev Version - Windows only for now)

https://www.patreon.com/posts/136064132

Alright there are still some issues with some of the new mechanics so I'll just drop this dev version for now. It includes the scenes from the previous 2D tech demo translated to 3D but not much else apart from the character creator. New content with mechanics that will ...

3D Story Mode Release Date – New Characters Preview

3D Story Mode Release Date – New Characters Preview

Just dropping by with a quick update! I originally planned to release the first update introducing Story Mode to the new 3D FratUniversity version of the game in about two weeks. However, since I’ll be quite busy next week, the release will likely shift.

It’ll either drop this Friday or in three weeks...most likely the latter.

In the meantime, here’s a preview of some...

Tech Demo Bronze Tier - Story Mode Devlog

It's been a bit quiet due to some health issues, but development has continued steadily in the background.

The biggest bug in the tech demo, where clothing would improperly occlude objects underneath—has been fixed! The demo has now been moved to the Bronze Tier.

Sneak Peek: FratU x AoT

The public demo of FratUniversity is out since last week, and the response has been overwhelmingly positive, especially around the new mechanics. Thanks so much for all the feedback and support!

Here’s a quick preview of what’s coming next: FratUniversity seems to be getting more love than Arena of Thebes, so I’ve started importing FratU characte...

Devlog - Finishing Base Mechanics

Getting the demo out by this Friday, as originally planned, might take a small miracle so a slight delay is likely. That said, I’ve made great progress.

The biggest hurdle right now is the loading system. Saving works fine, but I don’t want to release the demo as-is, only for players to create characters and lose those saves when the story mode update rolls out. I want to ensure a smo...

What's to come!

Happy New Year!

I hope your year is off to a fantastic start and that 2025 brings you all the good things you wish for. Last year was quite a tumultuous one for me personally, which impacted the time I could dedicate to the project. Despite that, I’m thrilled about what’s on the horizon and wanted to give you an overview of what’s to come.

Getting Close and Intimate (Luca & Kyan)

The first of the bronze artworks set with the new criteria for tier separation. Loved experimenting with the new lighting and clothing variations as well. There's going to be more of these variations in the future to really make the most of the 3d workflow and get different moods into each shot. There's going to be another bronze set this month so the overall picture amount is going to actually...

The sets are also going to move to more consistent theming and setting. They will also be...

Chapter 6 is here! Watch as our pairings (some old some new) bond over an intimate night in their individual cells. Been a long time coming but the story can finally continue. Hope you'll enjoy these new steamy scenes.

Also done some much needed upgrades to menu and game icons so don't get confused when looking for the old icon.
