OIL Novelisation - Book 1 (+ Full Comic Public Release)

 

Hello everyone,

It's been a while. Work continues on the game, but I've got some overdue things that need posting.

For those who remember, "Our Intergalactic Lovers" or "OIL" was an erotic Sci-fi comic series that I worked on with writer Camille Juteau between 2014 & 2018. The first comic issue was published for sale on Affect3D a few months prior to the first build of Terminal Desires going live. It was later made available for the Special Forces tier supporters on Patreon & SubscribeStar. But today, I'm finally making every comic page available for free.

Several additional comic pages were also produced from 2018-19 for Special Forces Tier members before making the decision to shift into producing comics that were related to Terminal Desires instead of an unrelated IP.

2019 was the last time I worked on any renders or story material for OIL, as Terminal Desires and it's world became my priority focus.

However, the vast majority of OIL's story remained scripted, but never told.

At the end of 2022, Camille reached out with their wish to novelize the comic scripts we had made and continue the story of OIL that we had come up with in book form.

The initial novelization draft was completed in early 2023, but I insisted on making sure the book was a fully fleshed out adaptation of all our plans and discussions. As I was obviously busy with Terminal Desires, I only ever worked on OIL during my free time, sometimes not being able to contribute for months at a time, which is why it has taken until now to be released as something that we are both very happy with.

 

The novel is about 310 pages of written material.

Chapters 0-8 adapts the material previous published in the original comic version(albeit with new narrative additions & embellishments).

I have made the original comic versions from 2018-19 available to everyone here (476.8 MB) if you want to compare or simply immerse yourself in the visual world of OIL, or what little was made.

 

Chapters 9-19 (over 60% of the novel) faithfully adapts our original script & plans for future comic pages that were never made. The continuation covered in this section of the book is material that's all new for readers, even if we drafted much of it privately between 2014 & 2019. 

 

While I mainly recommend this novel for fans of the original OIL comic, it shares a lot of DNA with Terminal Desires, and the DNA Valkyrie(no pun intended) story we also worked on together in the past. Many of the same kinks and themes are shared, so if you are a fan of the worlds I come up with then you'll probably enjoy this too (as long as you are not allergic to reading, it's all text after all)

 

If you are interested, you can purchase the novel as an eBook HERE or Paperback HERE, but please note that none of the revenue from these purchases will go to me.

I have now voluntarily relinquished all ownership & control of the OIL IP to Camille.

Apart from this project being something we all know I have no time for, I also know that if I get the opportunity to explore a Science Fiction IP in a future game project, that I have other ideas in mind than the world we created for OIL, even if I still hold a deep love for it.

So buy this book to support OIL & Camille's efforts to publish future OIL novels, not to support me.

 

While I am no longer going to be involved in any future continuations of OIL in any meaningful capacity, there also exists enough remaining original comic script from the 2019 draft to adapt into a 2nd OIL Novel(the process is already underway). Beyond that, many plans were made for what would ultimately now be a 3rd book.

Therefore, I would expect to see at least those novels come to fruition at some point in the not too distant future, especially since I am no longer involved in any writing or editing capacity that would delay the releases. But due to that, you will again need to support Camille if you wish to see OIL continue from now on.

I hope those that decide to purchase the novel enjoy it, and sorry for making any long-time OIL fans wait this long for a continuation.

Here's a more detailed description of the chapter taken from the store page:

Details

'Our Intergalactic Lovers' (OIL) is a science fiction series that takes place in an alternate future, almost 200 years from now. Early contact with advanced alien lifeforms has rapidly progressed humanity’s technological capabilities, allowing them to travel freely across the galaxies. That wasn’t all they did however, they’re also suspected of doing something to human females, changing them and making them more sexually insatiable than ever before. Angered by this, the patriarchal governing body of humanity’s colonies, ‘The Federation’ engaged in an ignorant and aggressive over expansion campaign that has put them at political odds with other forms of intelligent life for many decades. Under federation law, contact with alien lifeforms is forbidden.

Beyond the edge of human controlled space lies the seemingly uninhabited planet of 'Vithornes', orbited by a Federation space station. ‘Kiva Station’ is home to many federation scientists keen to complete their research and return home to the relative safety of humanity’s numerous colony worlds. It is on this station that Federation Doctor, ‘Ridori Maho’, will engage in a series of interspecies sexual encounters and embark on a grand journey across the cosmos.

‘OIL: Chapter One’ features the beginning of Ridori’s story, her first contact with alien life, and a hint at some of the trouble beginning to brew around her…

 

What's Included:

• The 40 comic pages (1320x1860p) in PNG format (Plus front and back covers)
• The 81 original, textless comic panels (1600x900p) in PNG format

Preview Renders From OIL ('Our Intergalactic Lovers') Chapters 0 & 1

Hey everyone,

Camille (from Seishi) and I are busy putting the finishing touches on the first chapters of OIL this week. The release of Chapter 0 will hopefully be very soon.

For now. I'd like to show off some more preview renders from both of these chapters to give you guys a bit of a taste of what to expect. Remember, the OIL chapters will come bundled with both an image set version and full comic option with lots of dialogue from the characters. There's a big story to be told here, but Chapters 0 & 1 are just the beginning. Enjoy:

Stay tuned for more posts, some bonus renders and hopefully the release of the freebie Chapter 0 coming soon. Feel free to ask any questions below.

[OIL] Galactic Interviews - Interview #2: Colonel Kyle

Hey everyone,

As usual, I apologize for the delays. I'm back, and work on OIL Chapter 1 and other projects are progressing once again. Just putting the final touches on the final 5 panels. I haven't just been doing nothing this past month though. I've got a lot of things coming up which I'll hopefully talk about soon.

Today we've got another character interview with cast of 'Our intergalactic Lovers' (OIL). You can read the first interview with the protagonist 'Ridori Maho' here.

This time the spotlight is on one of the antagonist characters, 'Colonel Kyle'. As before, the art here was done by me and the interviews themselves and the lettering was done by Camille from Seishi. I hope you enjoy.

Also here are some versions without the text in case you want to use these as wallpapers or something. They are 1920 x 1080p.

OK, we had a bunch more of these planned. But, since we're always so short on time, we thought it'd be best to just finally finish the damn thing :P. Besides, many of the other characters feature more prominently in future chapters. Chapters 0 & 1 are primarily focused on Ridori. Therefore we will do more of these interviews in the lead-up to future chapters. Which hopefully won't take nearly as long haha (nervous laughter).

Speaking of Chapter 0, I'm sorry if the "Pending Release" caused some confusion. It was always intended to be released as we completed Chapter 1, as a teaser. So we're holding onto it for now until we approach the final release of Chapter 1. Sorry about that.

Apart from this, I've been slowly working on my game idea, and character/outfit designs for the final commission from the batch I accepted a long time ago that I'm finally making some progress on featuring some more succubus girls who you'll be seeing soon.
