Java Lewd Maze [v0.7.262a] [Shanbahak]

[assc0bar]

Hey guys, new Demo 0.7.186a update is out for Patrons! Sorry was a bit delayed.
Changelog so far

-Added extra town event CGs for Smith in tavern Hostess, check her at night on usual day off weekend.
Event will activate IF you have lingering debuffs from dungeon, and it has variation for both types.

-Added weregirl battle H animation, need to adjust speed a bit, i think? Its pretty cool so far, but we'll still add some extra (like facial camera cut-in)

-Added engine feature for battle effects, now we should be able to do cool spell effects and other VFX stuff.

Is it normal that i can edit the savefile xml but the games overwrite it? like there is some other save game somewhere that reject my cheat?

never mind, i just need to change the character level

 

[assc0bar]

Game autosaves so~
Savefile will change every time you launch it.

 

[SWAT94]

The game has some kind of introduction, tutorial or something? It just threw me in the city and i'm omega lost

2000$ a month and this game maybe makes 8 hours of work progress in 4 months. I'd fire this guy if I was employing them.

I'd like to be clear to people that cant do the math; Thats 1000$ USD an hour.

I can’t even tell if you’re trolling or not

i think he's just angry and doesn't understand how patreon works...

the dev is not employed and he doesn't need to work or do anything for that money
patrons have no power over the dev.
or any influence on what he does with their money
no mather how mutch money they give him
in fact the best they get for their money: is access to a demo or "early access" v0.x game

in other words he just milks his patrons every month until they stop giving him free money
it's an easy way to milk/scam free money from fools

I think Bingus is referring to the claim that there are two hours in a month.

>> Thats 1000$ USD an hour

Mmmm. Mah boi, you apparently dont understand prices around this market.
Ofc its a bit different if you can draw all things yourself, do isometric spriting, coding, sounds and all that alone, but.

Lemme give you an actual example. Assuming you can code yourself, but cant draw porn.
To make cool large pixel animation (640x360), simple 10 frame loop.
First, you need to get lineart from lineartist, which can take aroooound 15-25$ per frame depending on quality.
Cool lineartists can take even more, up to 40$ per frame - yes, for black & white relatively simple outline/lineart frames.

After that, you go to pixel artist and ask him to make pixelz from lines.
Which also can vary depending on artist, i pay our guys around 20-30 per frame depending on complexity, liiike shading can also differ and sometimes lineart may need corrections. But that number is considered really low, i heard bigger projects can offer artists much more than i do.

Which in total gives you aroooond 400-600$ per single 10 frame loop.
And there are also extra you may want for your animations (like we do) - sounds, cum loop etc. Which can sometimes cost much more than starting loop, as an example Elf x Redcap animation has 68 frames in total.
Which means, it has more than 2k$ cost lol.
Lets add large CGs, isometric work, battle spriting here - believe me, you wont be happy with numbers you can get

Still, these calculations also work in opposite direction~
Like we currently have more than 20 animations and above 30 cgs with our relatively low income, and i honestly cant understand why projects with 5-10k bucks per month cant have much faster progress and more content lol.

Hey guys, new version is out for Patrons~

Changelog so far
-Added work / quest for Catgirl in tavern. You can now work as maid for small amount of gold and free rest.
It will waste whole day so care~
Ofc if you work under debuff, you will also have extra H-event with cool CGs

-Improved weregirl x Elf battle H animation, added facial cut-in. Added WIP cum animation, well i quess i will spoil it for everyone, since we were waiting for it so long~

-Added some voice for weregirl x elf. Not completely adjusted yet, but i will fix timings after we finish cum version in pixel.

-Fixed wolf girl howl skill. Derp, it was non-shaded for 2 months, my bad.
Now its shaded and has some VFX so it looks much nicer.

-Completely reworked autosave feature. Sorry guys, no more saving after each fight, or after every screen change. Game will now autosave ONLY after resting in tavern. In other cases for manual save - dont exit game by just closing window, exit game properly.
Its not very convenient, but it will serve as basis for new type of dungeon objects and events - we plan to add more Imp Trader action and functions.
She will run specific object in dungeon for saving your items and other stuff progress - with her own events and scenes.

Again, please note game in current demo will only autosave you in tavern or on manual exit~
Be careful not to lose your progress accidentally. I also kinda wanted to add Brothel event if you work debuffed, but it bugged animations for some reason. I will fix it asap and we'll add that sweet lil scene with extra CGs.

 

[Croy]

I like how assc0bar/shanbahak is doing things. Unlike so many other patreon games, this one has actual monthly progression

 

[icollectsouls]

Any word on when the next free version will be available/what will be included in the free version?

 

[assc0bar]

In couple days. It shooould be, lets see. I think 0.7.179a?
I will re-post changelog together with free demo.

 

[assc0bar]

Hey guys,

You must be registered to see the links

is now public~
Changelog from 170a:

Weregirl fight added, 1-2 substage added.
-Weregirl x Catgirl loop second part done. Its now finished~
-Added a bit of sounds to Weregirl x Catgirl
-Added second scene and level 2 debuff with CGs for Nurse doing some "debuff cure" work for Catgirl
-Added summon mechanics and skill to weregirl, she now summoning allies to help her in fight
-A bit of bugfixing for 1-2, hopefully running away wont throw you into town anymore

-Added lingering debuff mechanics. As an example, now Imps and Succubi have 15% chance to cast lingering debuff which needs to be lifted by Nurse in town
-Added scene with CGs for Nurse doing some "debuff cure" work for Catgirl
-Added dungeon level structure save mechanics.
For example, if you go from 1-1 to 1-2, you will be able to come back to exactly same 1-1 stage, but 1-2 will be each time generated again
It kinda allows to generate more "favorable" 1-2 and serves as core for other interesting features
-Added Weregirl iso sprites, no more fighting banana statues
-Fixed couple town bugs with Smith building and quests

Is It Possible to make a Apk Port Of this game? For Android?

 

[madmit]

It's not a game, just 15 min demo with dozen of funny sex animation.

 

[theunknownthird]

Am I missing something or is the balance of this game all over the place? It feels like the only viable strategy is to get the highest DPS classes and dishing as much damage as possible as quickly as possible. The Elf is worthless, Duelist is her most viable class and even then she misses all the time even against Imps. The only way to survive is to farm the brothel and spend that money in potions, then potion spam after every fight to heal up for the next encounter.

 

[geugeug]

Can this DEV PLEASE put the quit game button somewhere else it makes me nervous.. otherwise good shit
