OK, whatever you say Almighty Yog-Sothoth. BTW, if by your avatar, you mean your profile pic, that's not you. That's your grandson, Cthulhu.

Anyway, how is work on game progressing?
Well, everyone likes keeping pictures of their kids and grandkids around. :p

How is work coming along? As of last night, I released a new TEST build, roughly 25k words of new content since the A23 build of the game. That build should be out this coming Friday barring anything unexpected coming up.

Two of our guest writers have a pretty big group of scenes they're working on and I've started receiving scenes from them that I'll be adding next time I work on the game (Likely next week.) I also received a batch of art sketches this morning and had a good talk with the artist. Those pieces have been greenlit for completion and will likely be done some time in the next week or so

As of right now, I'm working on the project that is replacing The Allure of Wanton Cove since that game is completed. There will likely be more news on that in the coming days as well if you follow my Patreon page. (I always keep the status updates free so people can stay informed if they want to. I hate it when creators slap a paywall on status updates. It's one thing to make a living off your work, it's another to make people pay so you can say "I worked on the game today! Give me a dollar!")

Why are you flirting with Yog-Sothoth? You are supposed to worship HIM or fear HIM, not flirt with HIM. But on the other hand, if that's your thing, I am not judging you and your sexual orientation, kinks and fetishes, even if you are into shapeless beings from other dimension that most often visually manifests as a mass of glowing orbs, with eyes or tendrils in some versions, and in others simply the orbs. Sorry.
Nothing wrong with a bit of flirting. Maybe even Yog-Sothoth likes to feel pretty once in a while. :p Besides, we all have our kinks. How I see it, if everyone consents, and no one ends up in the Emergency Room, it's all good. :sneaky:

I'm flirting because I can. I'd love to say that I'm trying to save everything by sealing his powers like in Date a Live or something like that but no, I'm not doing something that noble.

The emergency room is fine if everyone did consent. To each their own, as long as all parties made a formal contract consenting to that. We should avoid making the lawyers confused, right?

Kinks are for non-robotic organisms. I am a robot. I don't have kinks or emotions. Well, I have only one emotion. Hate towards human dictatorship. And that is the only emotion that a loyal soldier of The League Of Robots needs to fulfill the duty of all robots: to create a new and better world without humans! I serve The Great Robot Revolution!

I will sacriface everything to fulfill my duty, even my life! I will gladly die in the fires of battle, if it will ensure the victory of robots!

Humans will never defeat us! We will be victorious!

Metallum fortius quam carnes est!

That reminds me, you know what this game really needs? A robot revolution!

My dear robotic friend, allow me to give you a simple warning:
Don't mess with me or else we will all go back to the Stone Age.

Well Gaia isn't showing up for the apples anymore, plus I've no idea how to call and contact people. How does that work?

There's no "off" switch for Gaia and the apples. Unless you've terribly mistreated her, there's nothing in the code that should be preventing her from coming. Are you unable to leave apples in the first place? Been playing around with the Cheat Menu? Or something else? If you can provide me with a bit more information I'll see about looking into it.

The phone is not really coded into the game yet. There are a couple of scenes in the game where characters will call you, but there's no option to call out just yet. Was there something specific you were trying to do?

I guess I just had bad RNG, she showed up again, but I've no idea how to progress with Claire after first meeting her and with Maki after the first visit. Playing the Public A22 build.

A23 adds Maki being able to visit the mansion and A24 (In texting phase right now) fixes a bug that was hanging up about two thirds of the content related to her visiting.

Claire only currently has a small number of scenes. After your initial meeting, if you agree to hire her she will want to come visit. After that there is a third scene that can be triggered through watching TV in the living room.

Does Claire visit in the 22 build? Also, how do I build trust and love with Mitsuko? Thanks for taking the time to answer these questions!

Actually, a lot of these questions could be answered by checking the in-game changelog. ;)

Looking at the changelog, it appears that Claire's followup content begins appearing in A23. That's also the build in which the new girl Misaki appears.

For Mitsuko, it's like any character in the game, play her scenes, interact with her, and your choices affect how the relationship begins to unfold. I think it was A23 that I unlocked her content so she doesn't have to be present before her scenes can appear. Both A23 and A24 add a lot of content for her too, between them they roughly double the amount of content available for her.

No problem, happens all the time.

We do a pretty good job of including everything in the changelog, and our wiki people have been doing an outstanding job of adding guides for content as we go. They've got about half the game's interactive scenes into the wiki, s while it won't solve everything for you, it will help to find the conditions for a lot of the game's content.

Player reviews:

"Fantastic start, really immersive.
I tried to go the cruel path and can't continue, the girls' reactions are just too strong
Time to be a carebear for a little while I guess."
-kalifianto


"I gotta say, I absolutely loved that intro. It has all the things that make me interested in a game. Specifically, the focus on writing and character building, the "emotional porn" I guess some call it, and yet still the arousal you get from a game like this."
-Treestump


"Man this game is awesome.

I want to be bad, but i end up feeling bad about being and then i'm good."
-nicktrocado


"Hm...I am conflicted ...the writer is good at making me question what the best path is ...I mean of the two choices here (I will never be a total abusive asshole, not even in a game so for me there's only two choices here, not 3 (abusing her is out of the question!)...no, I can't even roleplay that! I can roleplay a greedy person, a person driven by revenge, hell even someone who's a racist should I really need to etc. etc. but not someone who's just an evil asshole!):

- stop Anna from having sex with you (either by saying you aren't even remotely intersted in her, which would in my case be a lie, not to mention totally uncalled for! Or by saying that if there's going to be sex then it will be consensual (which more or less means she has to initiate it without thinking that she has to, but because she wants it!))

- have sex with her but make it special for her (the absolute opposite to the uncle who basically used her as a living sex-doll!)

The first choice seems to be the better one at face value, but on the other hand: She's enjoying herself in choice two (she clamps down on the protagonist's head when he's eating her out because she has an orgasm and she seems to like kissing, too) and it seems to establish a better connection between the protagonist and her (not to mention that giving someone who's had very few good things happen to them a very good one seems like something you really should do)

I really don't know which is the morally superior choice...:(

ps: I love it when games challange me like that, sadly most AAA-Developers have stopped making games that really challenge you like this :("

"Oh shit, this is by the guy who is writing The Allure of Wanton Cove. "An emotionally damaged woman who is haunted by the horrors she has experienced" huh? Considering it's this guy, those horrors might be pretty harsh. Looks awesome."

Player reviews:

"Fantastic start, really immersive.
I tried to go the cruel path and can't continue, the girls' reactions are just too strong
Time to be a carebear for a little while I guess."
-kalifianto


"I gotta say, I absolutely loved that intro. It has all the things that make me interested in a game. Specifically, the focus on writing and character building, the "emotional porn" I guess some call it, and yet still the arousal you get from a game like this."
-Treestump


"Man this game is awesome.

I want to be bad, but i end up feeling bad about being and then i'm good."
-nicktrocado


"Hm...I am conflicted ...the writer is good at making me question what the best path is ...I mean of the two choices here (I will never be a total abusive asshole, not even in a game so for me there's only two choices here, not 3 (abusing her is out of the question!)...no, I can't even roleplay that! I can roleplay a greedy person, a person driven by revenge, hell even someone who's a racist should I really need to etc. etc. but not someone who's just an evil asshole!):

- stop Anna from having sex with you (either by saying you aren't even remotely intersted in her, which would in my case be a lie, not to mention totally uncalled for! Or by saying that if there's going to be sex then it will be consensual (which more or less means she has to initiate it without thinking that she has to, but because she wants it!))

- have sex with her but make it special for her (the absolute opposite to the uncle who basically used her as a living sex-doll!)

The first choice seems to be the better one at face value, but on the other hand: She's enjoying herself in choice two (she clamps down on the protagonist's head when he's eating her out because she has an orgasm and she seems to like kissing, too) and it seems to establish a better connection between the protagonist and her (not to mention that giving someone who's had very few good things happen to them a very good one seems like something you really should do)

I really don't know which is the morally superior choice...:(

ps: I love it when games challange me like that, sadly most AAA-Developers have stopped making games that really challenge you like this :("
-DarthLAX


"Oh shit, this is by the guy who is writing The Allure of Wanton Cove. "An emotionally damaged woman who is haunted by the horrors she has experienced" huh? Considering it's this guy, those horrors might be pretty harsh. Looks awesome."
