One thing throws me off about this game: How is the Girl that looks like a young Cassie Cage (Mortal Combat) and even has the personality of Cassie Cage not the one named Cassie... Makes no sense.

Is there a way to rename them?
(Sidenote: I don't even really like incest, but clearly a bunch of other people do! So go nuts.)
So noted and entered into the permanent record. You are now free to proceed however you wish and nobody will ever think less of you.

Lately it seems I've been responding to a lot of requests from other devs wanting to cross promote their game with ours. This sudden spike in interest has necessitated the creation of a cross-marketing terms and conditions page on our web page.

Any creator that can't agree to Ianvs Software's T&C's when it comes to community interaction is simply a partner we aren't in alignment with.

So if you are a dev and are looking for cross-marketing opportunities, or if you're just the curious sort, you can find our terms and conditions .

Feel free to hit us up with any questions or feedback.

Alright, gotta get back to work.

Salute mates!

*Edited: I forgot F95Zone hates our webpage. I replaced the link with a tiny url to the location.

tl;dr, the conditions can be summarized with:

:ROFLMAO:

But in all seriousness, you (and a few others I won't name, you know who you are, guys and gals) are the very example of how a great creator (regardless of the creation) becomes even greater due to their interaction with the fanbase. I dare say that this is actually this proximity that makes peoples want to support you even more. I know you're on my list, had I the fund to support multiple devs... :/

Lol. Yeah, it's sad that it has to be said. But we've received some offers and after a quick search, seeing how they behave on the forums right here at F95 I've had to say, "No, sorry." I don't want to be a part of whatever bullshit you're up to.

I get it, I do. Devs want to make money so they can do this full time. I'm one of them. But like you said, you're a fan of ours but don't have the funds. But what if you hit the lottery tomorrow? There's no chance in hell I'll get any support then if I've been giving you shit for the last year in the forums.

Plus there are all kinds of other ways besides money to help devs out, and people do that for us all the time. Just talking about our game and letting other people know is a huge help. You might not be a financial supporter, but by being a social supporter you help financial supporters find us.

Talking about the game, putting banners in sigs. Those are all things that help us. Even posting in the forums at all is good for us because it gets us in the "latest replies" and people see us there.

And no joke, there have been several ideas proposed to us right here in this thread that we never thought of, but that were so great that immediately became story elements we wanted to explore (pregnancy for example). That kind of feedback is good and is going to make the game so much richer. Great suggestions come from everywhere, not just patreon.

On a more personal note, I also don't want to be a fucking hypocrite. I've pirated games, still pirate games, and pretty much every dev here has pirated a game or two. So who the hell am I to segregate people into paying vs non-paying players. And I am personally a patron of several developers on my private account, and our group account Ianvs Software, redirects some of our monthly Patreon intake to other devs we want to see succeed.

Anyway, I gotta climb off this soapbox before it gets too high.

But thank you for being one of our players and thank you for keeping up with us. And hopefully, one day you get that six figure job and can help support me in landing a five figure job that will let me do this kind of work all day long every day. :D

Cheers mate!

I have to say I quite like the Game so far. (Apart from the Cassie Situation, lol) What I really miss is some sound or background music and of course a lot more centent :)

I really wish devs would approach these games in a different way: Do one straight path through to the very end of the game and just gray out every other choice. When you are done with that, go back and add different branches. At least that would make playing unfinished games more bearable. People could actually reach a conclusion even if the game is only 20% done. I really don't see the point of having choices over choices and none of them lead anywhere, even in games that are more than 3/4 done. What's the benefit of having 30 different paths if all of them end in "Stay tuned for further updates", often after VERY little actual playtime.

(Especially since most games on this site never get finished, it's basically "Frustration and Blue Balls, The Saga. Parts 1-999"

cant download the walkthrough :((( is that link still working?
Unfortunately I cannot help you with the walkthrough. It is a patreon reward so it's not something we provide but others have acquired it and posted here.

You'll probably need to solicit help from one of the uploaders or staff for help with this. Sorry mate.

Other than lagging horribly, getting good sets is what worries me the most.

The thing I really like are the dForce hair, there are some that use the simulation function to layers it into place, and preventing clipping, but boy is it time consuming.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Yeah, recoloring can be a real pain, I have been doing a lot of that in photoshop, but that isn't an option on some objects. At least the skins usually work, but the genitals are always difficult. Of course it depends on what genital shell you use too.
Yeah, we use New Gens for V7 and we've finally managed to unravel where all the tones and layers come from and can manipulate them accordingly. Took some time and trial and error, but now we can make everything look correct. So pretty happy about that.

That hair you got there looks amazing! We gave up on hair for the time being, at least in terms of fixing clipping and collision. There is such a huge disparity in quality in hair between vendors. Some provide hair that is super manipulative and you can move around so many different parts and really get the look you want. Others are a fixed shell that is simply unforgiving.

I know there are ways to modify, correct and enhance it. We just haven't had the time to study it yet. It's on the list of things to get good at, but for the time being we've decided to just live with the evil and focus on making everything else look good.

One day in the future we'll get around to designing our own assets from the bottom up. Then we'll have full control over shit like that. But until that day, we'll just have to manage.

Good news, but I don't think I'll be able to see it. Is there a plan to host the old lives on any channel? I find them really interesting :)
Yeah eventually that is the plan. At the moment though we're finding it difficult to find a solid video streaming service that will host our kind of adult content.

We may eventually use a paid subscription on Picarto, but we need to generating a little more revenue before that becomes practical. So we're exploring options. Our homepage just isn't optimized for video. Worst case scenario we may just have to make them available for download.

To answer your question, it's because I haven't played a Mortal Combat game since the SNES. So until I just looked it up, I had no idea who you were talking about. (y)

But the only way to rename the characters is to unren the game and modify the character names in the script. We are working out a system to rename the MC, but the individual character names will remain the same. It'd just be too much additional work for us to rig up a way of renaming all of the characters.

Not that it can't be done, just that for us to go back and do it now would be a tremendous amount of work that we should probably be using to build content.

Absolutely. I just thought there might be an easy way. I know of some games where you can just replace a "name" list. (Often used in incest-themed patches to get "Mom", etc. back in)

Anyway, yes you should focus on content. Looking forward to the next Chapter. I'll get over the Cassie Situation:p

Good Luck

Glad you're enjoying the game so far and we appreciate you playing it and telling us what you think.

We are working an up updated UI. As that work continues we are making some minor modifications, music included. It wasn't a priority in the beginning but as we get other things under control it has freed us up to look at some other areas of improvement. But we've got a little while still before we roll out those changes. But they are coming.

The only reason we can't develop our game in the way you suggest is because our character stories are going to overlap and interweave with each other. As our game progresses you'll begin to notice more and more how your choices will influence the characters in the game. Changing their personalities, reactions and interactions with the MC. But the effects are cumulative, so we have to get a little further along before they become extremely apparent.

As a player turned developer, unfinished games are a pet peeve of mine. And I've sworn that even if I never make another game after this (though I hope to make it a full time job one day) I will finish this one at least. The fact is I'm too in love with the characters and even after working on this project for over a year, there is no sense of burn out, only building excitement as the story continues to evolve and take shape in ways I could not have predicted in the future.

In the meantime, thanks again for playing and letting us know what you think. If you're inclined we'd appreciate a review, but there is no mandatory requirement to do so. But if I didn't shamelessly pander for ratings, I wouldn't be a starving artist now would I?

Cheers mate!

As a dirty pirate, I've got to say - you are the model for how a dev should interact with us. You don't give your rewards away, but you realize someone is going to share them and you're OK with it. You realize that while you may have 1000 people pirate your game, that's going to lead to some patrons, that you wouldn't have gotten otherwise. You help people where you can, and take criticism and suggestions well.

As a professional (non-porn game) developer, I agree with everything you posted in your T&C.

Our Live Stream only ran over by about two hours today. What can I say, playing with rope takes time.
And I tend to get a little wordy with the explanations and examples. But oh well.

Enjoy the fruits of today's labor! And thanks to everyone who watched. Hope it was educational.

And for those of you that did watch, if there is anything that you'd like to see in the future, a method or skill, please shoot us a message and let us know. If it's something we can do we'll see about working it into the next stream. Cheers!

Four hours later, we emerged with this lovely piece! Enjoy, and watch out for wet floors!
