Thank you for your feedback as always! While I appreciate the bugtesting hearing thoughts on the content is nice too. There are a lot of little things you pick up on and it's good to know somebody sees them
This update was super ambitious as I wanted to wrap up so many loose ends at once... I wanted to do post-corruption epilogues where you wander a corrupted school but I had to draw a line somewhere, and given all the bugs I think I didn't draw the line soon enough. Such is life though.
"That's an odd one, Cassandra does... something, then we just strip off and ask to fuck them?"
Yeah I probably pushed Cassandra too far. In retrospect maybe I should've made her a witch?
"Huh, there's an ending for her is there? Odd that didn't show up the first time I played it."
It should trigger so long as she isn't last.
"It's nice to see all of them getting together at the PTSA Meeting, different girls having their storylines separate is kind of required for a sandbox game, but them having crossover too is always nice."
The meeting was quite a few hoops to jump through as characters like Evelyn can have multiple states, as well as Justine, and both have an interaction. I am glad it paid off at least somewhat though even though the system is probably clunkier than it should be.
"One thing I noticed is that breaking Lisa like this doesn't count for unlocking the gaslighting path, probably it should if the player decides to change tactic at this point."
That's a really good point, it feels quite obvious in retrospect.
"I don't like how it seems to be trying to discourage us from blackmailing Victoria, that seems odd."
It's because it leads to a game over unless everyone in the ptsa is actually corrupted. If Olivia is just absent for example because you bought Lily's skip for her. I wanted to add at least some stakes, but it didn't really get fleshed out enough.
"Shame that all of the things seem to involve us, it would probably have been more effective if we had stayed out of it."
The painting also affects the subtle route, if that counts. I mostly just wanted to have the events accessible from one location as it made testing a little faster, and as a result you end up being present.
"She really is a mess. Punishes herself nightly? ...What kind of punishment?"
The best kind!
"That and her feelings about Victoria makes me want to see Victoria dominating her. "
A similar idea was suggested in discord, I just wasn't sure how exactly to write it, whereas other routes flowed more easily. Maybe in the future.
"I swear, the way Lana acts after the scene is over seems like it would fit better if she did know that we were breaking Victoria rather than her acting."
I imagine there's some resentment for the prudish principal who suddenly decided to go into porn. Plus, Andrea's studio is all about those exxxtra behind the scenes content, so they likely would get a lot of use out of the footage of Lana berating Victoria.
"It's a shame there are no repeatable scenes with her or Lisa after finishing with her, although that's completely understandable given how much content is in the corruption itself. Hopefully there will be some post-corruption scenes with them in future updates."
Yeah, as I look back on it there isn't much actual Lisa content.
My idea for the porno route epilogue is that the player has made hypnosis-interlaced pornos, and the town as a whole has a wildly warped sense of morality going on. The problem with most epilogue ideas is that it mostly felt like the same "wander the free-use town" between each ending. I think maybe the solution is that it should change to show the perspective of an unhypnotized student walking around the sluttified town.
"Err, 'she walks in wearing absolutely nothing' but the picture has her wearing that striped outfit."
Those pajamas are... I got nothing. Fixed, thank you!
"It really is funny just how completely Meph is into degradation, some of the other girls and traps are into that kind of play too, but they don't expect to be treated like shit 100% of the time, just when we've fucking them."
Meph always being 100% horny and slutty makes him hard to write or escalate with, but as a result he oozes with personality so I think it's worth it.
"Meph finally ended up in prison, it was really only a matter of time."
And what a great time he's having!
"Is it intended that in his forest rape scene he calls her a 'big scary man'?"
I think the line works either way. If you're Tomara it could be read as a dig at how you look to make you fuck him harder.
"After completing her, if you accept the ending it resets her progress and we have to do her again?"
That is correct, as endings reset you to before your last scene.
Extra thank you for the formatting of the bugs and typos you found, it made correcting them easier. Hope you have a good 2021!
