Nothing Gets More Shader Than This Interview with Shades
By ImJustThatKinky • 5 years ago

 

Kinky: I feel a strong connection with this person. They were honored to be interviewed by me, and I was honored to be interviewing them. All in all, we were both acting stupidly gushy with one another. But that's the reason why I think I wanted to have this interview most of all. We're both two stupid dudes that are on the internet and I hope that one day I could consider this dude one of my BOIS. Let me introduce you to Shades! How are you doing today Shades!

Shades: I am doing great though I think if we gush anymore one of us will drown. And of course hit me up anytime I love making new comrades over the lewd airwaves.

Kinky: Aw, that would be sweet! So, before you started this game venture of yours, you started on YouTube. How has that been treating you?

Shades: Actually not as bad as one might think. Starting Shady Corner on YouTube at first was a bit of a drama. Editing in every censorship and trying to conform to the guidelines was something I didn’t like doing. Though as time went on I realized that the work I was putting into making sure it was sexy and informative actually paid off. With the new guidelines in place as of the adpocolypse I may have lost most of my ads but with Patreon and my methods of presenting ecchi media I’ve been flying between guidelines.


Kinky: A man who’s truly doing lwed god’s work. What made you get into the world of game development and the big question, lewd game development?


Shades: Game development was always something I was into. I started playing around with simple programs as early as 12 in my dads computer shop. Next door to his computer store he also owned an adult entertainment shop so I was always close to something lewd in some way. As I went further into media exploring film and animation
I put game development on the back burner. But the past few years covering all these amazing Patreon funded ecchi games got me thinking. If they can do it, could I? Also I never say no to a new challenge. Plus I love me some lewd games.


Kinky: Jeez, it sounds like you’re life was destiny to come to this point. How are you with managing everything at the Shady Corner? Is it stressful?


Shades: Very stressful. I’m currently the only one here full time. Shadette and the rest of the team only come in for filming days. I’m managing the sites, editing, writing, filming, game coding, posting out DVD's or sales. It has been tough going from a full team of people to just me. As of last year my dad was taken ill. So I took a lot of time to focus on his health and help him at his job. Which I think brought out a lot of anxiety and demons but at the end of the day if I didn’t have the Shades to hide behind I would go insane. Plus it’s nice to come home and relax to your favorite lewd games.


Kinky: Yeah, the life of an entrepreneur sounds glamorous at first but it can truly take a toll on you. Starting up an indie game development is a scary and unpredictable undertaking. Were you scared at the start?


Shades: Feedback. Though as a youtuber I know that feedback is a thing I’m always dealing with. It was scary to see some developers go through back lashes on certain choices and decisions. I wont lie it’s always at the back of my mind. When you’re a reviewer the spotlight is extra bright on you when you attempt to create what you review.

Kinky: Do people in your real life actually know how lewd you are, with your YouTube and everything, or are you able to keep all that on the down low?


Shades: Haha. Yes and no. In real life Im still wacky and love making people laugh but I dont bring up the latest release from illusion or the next hentai game I nutted to. Some of my friends are starting to find out about what I do and are quite supportive and can see that between everything its entertainment and I love making people laugh. But then I have to ask them if they saw the custom maid 3d dat game review, once they have then I know their real opinions on me haha.

 

Oh no, I didn't watch this video before interviewing Shades!? Is my opinion going to change after watching this video? What secrets does it hides...

 

Kinky: Your first game to drop was LewdWare. How was it like working that project?


Shades: Tough, I’m already working on so much. Flambeau, Okonomiyaki and a few secret projects which will blow your pants off. MiZun is a great artist, she knows what you want and is willing to bounce ideas as quick as you can serve them. Lewdware is a smaller cog in what I like to think of as the Shady Interactive Lewdiverse (Marvel plz dont sue). Smaller games like these help the bigger games come to life. So we plan on releasing smaller games like Lewdware in between productions so we can keep a rhythm and the players dont have to stop stroking and wait for the next release haha.

You can go a check out an article I did on LewdWare to learn more about it.


Kinky: One of the games that you guys are creating that I'm most hype for, Okonomiyaki. How did the whole idea of pizza topping waifus come to head?

Shades: That makes two of us! Well I decided to tackle a genre of games I’m not too fond of. Visual Novels, only because I’m not much of a reader. Though if done right can capture my eye. I figured it needed to stand out in the crowd so I researched games that were done before. One night I thought, well food girls seem to be a thing nowadays, I like pizza, it’s a match made in heaven!


Kinky: Weird…very weird. But that’s why I love it? So, who is your pizza waifu?

Shades: Oh man I love all my Pizza girls! Each girl represents a kink of mine haha. Though if I had to pick it would be Pepper. Because Pepperoni is my first love.

Man, you guys know how a feel about basic waifus and Pepperoni is the basic of all pizza toppings. But I'll let it slide for today. I'll save my waifu choice for when the game drop, but someone is looking pretty suspect :P


Kinky: What do you hope to achieve with Okonomiyaki?

Shades: Something that stands out in the crowd. Which so far it seems to. I want a blend of comedy and sexiness, being my first visual novel it’s been tough to nail the formula, I don’t want it to leave the oven uncooked.

Kinky: I’ve learned today that Shades is a man who loves his puns. Do you have any estimation when it’ll be playable?

Shades: Id like a tech demo of one girl route maybe in the next month or so. We were looking into voices for the game and the music is taking a bit of time. The art and story layout is already complete it’s the little pieces that are taking a bit longer.

Kinky: Oh fuck voices! LewdGame of the year I’m calling it! Okay, enough of the baby questions time for the lewd ones! You ready Shades?

Shades: Am I ready? Do you know who I am? Should I get on my knees?


Kinky: Wwooo buddy?! You need to take me out to dinner first, I’m not that easy. What are you, an ass man and boobs? And why?

Shades: The million dollar question. Boobs, artists have an amazing way with presenting them as of late. Its hard to ignore Life over Hometown.


Kinky: Shades been wrong about a lot of things this interview. First waifus and now he picks boobs over asses!? I might be reconsidering this friendship. What are your favorite kinks?

Shades: I dont think your site has enough bandwidth to handle that list haha. Tentacles, Paizuri, Monster girls, nachos. Again another question that could take me forever. I do post most of them in our discord which does take the fans by surprise. My latest kink or fetish is midriffs.

Kinky: This is the question that can rekindle our friendship. I'm a trap man, but are you O.O?

Shades: I assume as you asked me that you also did a little twirl in a maid outfit. But yes. Who doesn’t love a good trap. Life isn’t fun without a few surprises.

Kinky: I love you again :D. Thank you so much for joining me Shades, I hope we can do it again sometimes. Is there anywhere these lovely be can find
you?
