Definitely in the minority here, but could not disagree more.
Been busy IRL for a while, but wanted to check in.
Personally I find the latter stages of Bonnie a massive turn-on myself. Having a few characters that totally embrace the gaining with thicc thighs is enough for me. Bonnie's belly growing in scenes got me good tbh.
Imo the gym scenes would be good if there's a resturaunt for "carbo cramming."
Also, I like the aspect of characters being fully aware what the MC is up to when he brings more food when at work. Maybe with Trista making her give MC a sly look (as she knows full well its not a coincidence) would really add to it. Can imagine making her sexually aggressive would really make her character shine. Not sure what the plans are but having her get heavy but also having a strong core (cue biggest thighs/ass in the game) would be a nice touch.
If you end up implementing bigger/taller characters later on I do hope they've got more of a motherly charm. A near 2m tall wholesome character would be too much for me (in a good way).
As for me part of the appeal is the bigger torsos. SO many works will make every other portion of the bodies balloon up and have a torso of a college athlete, lol. I see it a lot in 3D/blender comics constantly too. Its called "Fattening" for a reason.
As to the stages, I was thinking numerically. Like perhaps it would continue, but have a mere flag to keep it from conflicting with any updates. Simply putting a flag for the version number to have it not call for any images/etc beyond a set cap and just the bio?
I'm unsure how it might conflict with the future updates by allowing the weights to increase, truth be told. >.<
