Nice, I'll have to try with small boobs and no piercings. What happens then, do you have a scene getting pierced?

Yeah, you get a scene right after he tells you to get piercings.

This update shows really good what the users fell in love with at the early stages of development. WP

Yes. I, too, fell in love with having actual content.

Yes, as mentiuoined by the_jaron, but it's nothing special; not worth playing a new game to see. There's more content with the big boobs than the small, as far as I can tell.

 

[redhand]

The content I have seen so far has been quite good. Been waiting for the more open world aspect for years though, hope it'll be included soon.

 

[Leiafanman]

Crush trying to build open world systems is what has taken so long, we just need him to write content. This is a CYOA text adventure not GTA.

 

[Tallyhoe]

I think the faster he accepts this isn’t gonna be sandbox but a linear VN with illusions of choice here and there, the better and more content we’d get.

Considering his track record for the past few years and the 2600 patreons who believe in his vision and execution of the game, no dice mate

Hey guys! This week was spent writing. I finished the 1.15 plot outline, and built the opening scenes in the game engine.
Next week: it's moar writing! Writing's my favourite thing, even though I wish I could do it faster.
Even though sex scenes are the point of Female Agent, if we just string them together gratuitously they'll stop being sexy. (You hit a point of

.)
Episode 1.14 ends with a sex scene, so the heroine needs a breather while we set up the next one. That's what I worked on this week; I'll finish it tomorrow, and push on with 1.15's actual sexy scene from Tuesday.
Okay, that's it, short report because I can't really talk about writing without dropping spoilers. The next episode's title is Girl On Film. Just saying...
Have a greta week everybody while I work on moar Female Agent! I love you all See you next week!

Hey guys! Writing week 2 was pretty good. I finished the "setup" scene I began last week, and started on the main sexy scene from 1.15.
Writing is like chess in some ways. You need to spend some time manoeuvring all your pieces into position before you can execute the vision in your head. (Unless you're Rian Johnson, then your characters can just come and go from a chase scene in progress.)
Unfortunately I'm not half-assing a Star Wars film, but working on Female Agent, so that was basically my work this week: getting various characters to where they needed to be in the narrative to make the next scene feel real.
Next week I'll be working on the exciting stuff! Our heroine's like a frog in a pot of hot water, and the point of the next episode is to turn up the heat another couple of degrees.
I'm hoping to get all the writing done in the next two weeks, which would mean the next episode gets released sometime in February.
The amount of progress I make next week will be a good indicator. Sometimes sex scenes flow fast, sometimes it takes me two attempts to get them right. I'll report on progress next weekend. Wish me luck.

Well, I think it's been almost a better part of a decace since I've played the first version, so I guess this counts for lightning speed for this game.

“One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple.”
–Jack Kerouac

Hey guys! I'm sorry to report that writing was challenging this week.
Some weeks it's easy and I make fast progress; this wasn't one of those weeks. I had what I thought were good ideas about the scene I'm working on, but the titillating/emotional beats just weren't landing the way I thought they would.
I've experienced this a few times on this project now. It's not exactly writer's block (because I can still write), it's more like a lack of confidence that the words on the screen are the right ones.
I've noticed that these problems tend to creep in when I'm trying to force NPCs to do what I want them to, rather than what they actually would do. Recent examples:

• In 1.12 (Malaysia), I was struggling with initiating the Max sex scene in a way that felt organic and real. The solution was to let Max be Max; once I actually got inside his head, I was able to add in a few emotional beats (like feeling attraction, and the first kiss in the restaurant) that made the scene work.
• In 1.13 (Welcome to Bangkok), the original plan was for Connor to interview the heroine in the management office right away. It felt very, very forced and unrealistic: like Connor was just standing in the bar, eager for sex but waiting for the quest to start. Shifting the interview to a different time and location fixed it.

I was struggling with something similar this week: the scene just didn't feel right, and I think it's because I was trying to control the NPCs too much. So on Thursday I backed off from the scene I was trying to write, and really put some thought and energy into the NPC characterisation instead.
I feel like I'm on the right track now. But basically I spent a week figuring out how not to write this scene.
I'm sorry I couldn't report better progress, but I always want to be open with everybody about the process. It doesn't always go in a straight line. I took the weekend completely off to refresh my creativity: hopefully next week I'll have a better report.

Coming soon: NPC art!
Speaking of NPCs, I teased something cool on Discord this week! We've started experimenting with

to quickly create visual references for characters, e.g.:

Our lovely illustrator Victoria is experimenting with recreating them in the game's art style. Here's a sneak peek (WIP):

One of the aims of the game is to have a large pool of NPCs available. (This is so we can explore a wide variety of sexy scenarios.) So I'm excited about these mini avatars, which I think will help make the NPCs feel more different and memorable than just being words on a screen. Let us know what you think, here or on Discord!

grrrreat, one more avenue of excuses for slow progress. why not have npcs be simple text descriptions/names and let the player fill in the blanks?

 

[luccia87]

The truth is that I harbored hopes in the course of development... naive me! A little disappointed and I was considering supporting... well, let's hope the result is worth it.

So how far along in the story is it? The last time I played was just at the character creator or something.

Readed the changelog?

Readed the changelog?

Readed? What is 'readed'?

 

[lordrango]

Readed? What is 'readed'?

Well, I would guess it is a misspelling of the word "read". It could be:

1) not a native speaker
2) a typo

... and, bit less likely...

3) a joke

Character creation is mostly out, you reach Bangkok and try to get a job in the club.

Writing is very high quality, but the amount of new content is minimal for the amount of time it took.

You basically have two sex scenes. If the progress continues at this rate, by 2027 the author will have removed the first scene, rewrote the second scene and added a new one.
