Howdy! Here’s what’s up:
After the new year celebration I had some personal business to take care of, legal things, visiting my ancestors, allies and general hustling. Due to the weather conditions I inevitably got sick, fortunately with just a regular flu.
And while I’ve been working this whole time, the real work only began last week.
That’s why the progress report is only arriving now - I’ve had nothing substantial to share.
All in all, I feel well-rested and healthy to proceed with the development. I do feel guilt for not working as much as I should, but my pigeon-brain really needed some time off.
This year we’re going to try and publish our updates more regularly. I'm almost done with the writing part for the next one, already have some art prepared in advance, but we still need to finish editing it all to include all references. I will probably post another teaser next week and talk more about the content of the next update then.
That said, here’s what we did:
- Wrote more dialogue and scenes for the “flashback” sequence that will happen at the very end of the Farm (it’s long, been preparing resources for it in advance);
- Revisited and revised Kira’s character art system (not done yet);
- Revisited and revised the intro to include preg/bimbo options there (not done yet);
- Edited Vivarium “pillory/nun” encounter text (commissioned by LostRaven) to include alternative dialogue;
- Edited Vivarium “pillory/nun” encounter art (drawn back in August) to include all body-mods;
- Started drawing a new character “nun” (not related to the cult of Veles).
- Minor changes done by Moana on her own (like better art-flow at the first Hospital BE event)
-Worked on an updated artbook for 10$+ patrons and multiple requested screensavers for all tiers.
Kira’s past:
The only hint about Kira’s past I’ll give is that, in my opinion, it’s better for an “amnesiac” protagonist to be someone important. An amnesia creates a mystery around the character, and every mystery should have a satisfying answer.
I personally do not like “flashbacks” in any form of media, since they usually have no consequences. But in our “flashback” you will have a choice with some consequences and it will be playable for a bit, because it happens in another part of the world, which should be interesting (If done right).
Stockings:
We’ve added stockings in the last update, but there was a complication. Apparently Kira’s character art is coded with the wrong coordinates, which we previously didn’t notice due to insignificance of the mistake. The issue only became apparent once we’ve implemented stockings into the game.
The fix for this required manual re-coding of every picture in her art (thousands of pictures). Moana attempted to do this for the last update, but we had to revert the change for multiple reasons:
-It was buggy, due to the fact that she simply made some mistakes while re-coding this amount of pictures.
-It’s pointless, since we’re currently in the process of changing Kira’s character art (logic, not the visuals) for the final time (hopefully).
Note: At the end of the farm you’ll get all stockings (cow pattern and black latex) regardless of your content preferences and the events will become repeatable. This is done on purpose to give you another reason to revisit repeatable versions of said events. We will also add more types of stockings to the game in general.
Character art changes:
It started because I’ve found a way for pregnancy to work with all outfits. Then we’ve noticed that we can technically separate tops from bottoms. Here’s why I believe it has to be done and soon:
-Next “farm” day will lead to Kira being able to get knocked up for some players, so we need to finish the “preg” system prior to that.
Note: I’m also going to go through all of the in-game dialogue once more to include references to Kira’s appearance, including pregnancy and random “milk spills”.
-Current Character art system is a bit outdated, meaning that it has parts of other systems built in - we need to remove them, separate them completely to further boost up a performance of the game and make our dev-lifes easier.
Again, we’re trying to return to a monthly release schedule, and character art changes will eat a ton of time, so the change will be implemented gradually.
Nose ring:
Some of you didn’t like it. Fortunately I see it as yet another opportunity for us all to pick it together, and we’ll just need to replace three pictures.
So, I will draw alt versions and conduct a poll next week.
Polls:
We need to know a few things before finalizing our character art changes, based on the final version of the character art system - we will gradually begin the re-coding process of all events to show every body-mod option in the upcoming updates.
I already asked you about the max size, now I need to know how “silicone breasts” will look (how big). And I need to know how her breast tattoo will look, what do you want to see?
Next week I will post a poll about the nose-ring. Then about optional fake-breasts and finally about the breast tattoo.
We need to determine three things together in the upcoming weeks:
-Nose ring;
-Fake breasts;
-Breast tattoo.
For a breast tattoo, please send me references if you want to see something particular, I will then add them to the poll and we will decide who’s the winner together. You can dm me on patreon, on discord or email me (freshmulan@gmail.com)
Meanwhile, we’re still working on the next update, we have every intention to return to a monthly schedule and I will tell you more about new content in my next teaser post.
Thank you all for your patience and support! This year is going to have a lot of exciting content, and a lot of things will finally start to pay off.

he means.Thank you for uploading your file. When I copy it into my folder (...Defenestration 0.4.9\www\save) it doesn't show up ingame. Any idea how to solve that?

You should make your own save in this slot in game, then overwrite downloaded file. I.e. if you've downloaded save010, you should make a save in 10th slot then overwrite it.

Don't give him this idea or we'll wait for story progress for ages

As nice as it'd be, I'd much rather have more story updates at this point. The optional modifications could be added later, but I'd much rather prefer those get passed over for the most part now since we already have a significant amount in the game.
In that building I go right on floor 2 and 3 and see no one named Olga
"Now go over to the far right on the floor you are on and talk to Olga"
So on floor 3 to the right/east of the Elevator,you follow a corridor and there willbe a room to the north that looks like the room in the following picture. Olga is the blonde/gold/yellow haired character sprite(despite her having pink hair in art).
This game is great but you have to sit through a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOT of dialogue to redo a playthrough to try and get the stats you want.
Bimbo playthrough for the first time for example is annoying, because instead of being able to understand what's going on in the story, you just get bombarded with dumb talk and have to try to figure out what's actually happening. The scene with Sharon and Kira was probably the worst because they're both braindead (a fine kink to have mind you,) so you're trying to figure out how an election works and Kira ends up going on a tangent about hair conditioner for like 5 minutes, then there's something about the election, and before I've pieced together what's actually happening, for one thing I'm soft, for the second I'm all of a sudden stabbing people? Now I'm all for immersion but the bimbo path shouldn't cause the real me to lose brain cells.
Now back to the amount of dialogue, if I find the bimbo path frustrating, I need to start a new game and try entirely different pathing through the game to get back to that point without being retarded, while waiting through literal hours of dialogue and walking, even when sped up to max speed.
We need a walkthrough so that we can navigate what's going on in the game a little easier, especially seeing as the dialogue is so tedious.
I've seen in other RPGM games (cursed armor comes to mind) that you can hold a button and make the game go ridiculously fast which helps with trying multiple paths. Is that a function that can be used in this game?
Anyway rant over, bimbo path is predictably dumb as rocks in a bag, just didn't expect to take on the role of a cryptographer to understand plot points, and now to better understand the story I need to do a several hour rerun.

I'm actually trying to keep my intellect as high (the top I was able to get to was 9) as possible and preferably use conversation options that raise it.
Trust me... even like that the election system makes no sense. And the Vivarium will most probably be the greatest challenge with any approach because half the characters are mad or dumb and the rest are pretending to be. Except the individuals that are trying to outsmart you.

So far only through the rubber ducks in Gym. I don't think there has been any other way. I remember there were some lectures for it in the movie studios, but that one is being reworked so... We'll need to wait to see how it goes.
