Important: Regarding our Activity...
Added 2024-09-30 22:22:00 +0000 UTCDear Cats 'n' Briefs Patrons, Oiruse here...
First of all, I want to apologize for the lack of updates and uploads for the past couple of months, specially to anyone waiting for us to open commissions, and for missing this month's deadline for the monthly picture.
I want to announce that yes, as of current time, I plan on still continuing the Splinter and Jaguar comic, as well as working on commissions. Additionally I am planning to continue work on the current "small" animation I'm working on (the Sylvester vore one for Aqua, it was posted on Twitter a while back). I want to continue working on art for the Patreon and stay active.
But I have to admit that I've gotten sidetracked lately with a few sudden, unexpected events which is why updates and uploads over here have been very very slow, and I want to genuinely apologize for it all. I must admit that I've been avoiding any announcements about it because I really thought I'd be able to tackle it all in the background, but at this point I'm aware that that is wishful thinking, and just not possible. I've been struggling a lot keeping up with everything and I'd rather announce my plans here.
(I'm about to spew some history here, so if you don't care for details, just skip the next two paragraphs)
-----
For over a decade I have been wanting to get into video game development (to be fair, I've been wanting to do since I was a kid. The idea of "controlling" the fate of a cartoon has ALWAYS fascinated me). I've trained in the art of making game graphics and animations for many years (making and animating video game sprites, specifically pixel ones, is and has always been my passion. It's one of my absolute favourite things to make). But I could never get into programming. In the past I always struggled with terms, variables, rules, and math of it. For the past 10 years, I had the chance to work with a handful of programmers to attempt making something. I spent a lot of hours working with/for them, because at the time I had nothing else to do (or wanted to do) in life, and I was relying on them. But they were busy people, and any efforts put into them were all for nothing in the end. I have hundreds of files and animations and sprites that have gone nowhere, so in the end, It's why I gave up on it all, and decided to start my career drawing p0rn. And I'm not going to lie, It's been, and STILL is very fun and I'm having a great time doing it! and the fact that I'm able to do it at all is absolutely thanks to you guys supporting us.
3 weeks ago I had to go visit my family for personal reasons, and I was planning to get back to work immediately after, but when I got back home, Eddie surprised me with the chance of being able to work on a small video game after he manage to get in contact with a programmer (Kitashi). And, passionate as I've always been for game development, I accepted and took the chance. So for the past couple of weeks or so, I've been working hard on trying to make as much of that game as possible. We already had a few things in the back burner, but without a programmer, nothing came out of it and we had to abandon them for a long time. But after working with Kitashi... I feel like it can finally happen, and I want to give it another chance.
-----
The short story is, one of my life's dreams has always been making video games. I've tried to make it happen throughout all my life but nothing ever worked out, so I turned to drawing p0rn. But recently, I found a good chance to be able to work on video game dev, and I have decided to give it a shot.
Once again, I don't plan on stopping drawing things for Cats'n'Briefs, in fact, the game we are working on is Completely Related to it! But I wanted you to be aware that, for the next handful of months, updates on art for Cats'n'Briefs and commissions will be much slower than usual, as I plan on focusing on video game development.
So I am warning ahead of time to, please, if you are not okay with this idea, feel free to unpledge anytime. Updates on art will be slower and we will be busy working on the game. I'm genuinely sorry for the inconvenience of having been slow the past couple months, and for this sudden chance of pace. and specially for the lack of monthly picture for September. I bit more than I could chew. But once again, I DO plan on getting to it, (as well as all the other ideas in the past poll, eventually), but not for a while.
I am very aware that this is a selfish decision on my part. That's why I am announcing this. I should have done this earlier but I was overconfident that I could tackle everything at once, but that's just not the case. So if you'd rather wait until we're done with the game, feel free to leave until we get "back to the usual".
Once again, I apologize for the sudden, strange announcement. I should have done this much earlier. But I'd rather keep you all on the know of what's been going on behind the scenes.
-----
If you decide to unpledge, Thank you, because you guys have kept this afloat, and we most likely wouldn't be have reached this far without your help, and I deeply understand and respect anyone's decision to leave considering the sudden chance of pace and plans. We appreciate on helping us, and we hope do to see you again in the future, but if not, take care, and once again, Thank you.
-----
But if you decide to stay... Thank you immensely aswell, because This is something that I've longed for since forever... I will be posting updates slowly on the game progress, and work on art every now and then when I get the chance. I'm really looking forward to wherever this goes to. and once again, I do plan on working on the things I've mentioned earlier.
I still plan on working on everything in the poll (Starting with the Splinter and Jagwar comic), as well as The Sylvester vore Animation. We may also attempt a Halloween picture (and maybe a Christmas one). But I will avoid working on anything else besides those, and the occasional commission. There will be no new plans at least until all of those get done.
And as I mentioned earlier, we will be posting updates on the game progress. We hope you enjoy it! And thank you for sticking with us. <3
See you soon!

2024-10-01 00:22:23 +0000 UTCI've should have brought this up here as a possible request. Our iconic sylvester is under a animated short wip. And if it's entertainable before it's finalized, are we going to see who is squirming around in sylvester's beautiful tummy? And will sylvester being using that big squishy tongue of his to pull that rodent inside his mouth from underneath. That rodent is going all in with our iconic feline, and those internal massages he's getting will last forever.

2024-10-01 00:12:35 +0000 UTCI hope to see your game Release soon. Your artwork style should be incorporated with your dirrection. I'm excited for you. I hope to see hints of oversized maws and such in the many levels ahead of your game development journey. One scene comes to mind was from the first release of cuphead. That kitty from that scene when he caught that rat and the feline's mouth was so well animated. Yeowl. Best of Success. And can't wait to see sylvester finally as a short vore animation. I'm sure we can follow your progress on discord or wherever your preferences are. *hugs*
