HTML Shady Deals [v0.15.1] [Kroo]

[Kroo]

Yeah, it fixed saves bug for me and game can now be played without major issues. But a new bug appeared. Doesn't look like it affects anything, but error still appear.
Error: child tag <<elseif>> was found outside of a call to its parent macro <<if>>

Oh, that's cuz of the time changes - i just quickly replaced some stuff without testing it, sorry. Here's a

for that. I'll merge these changes into the next patch after actual testing. Thank you for checking it.

I've been looking for a game like this where you get to lead an army/gang like as a FMC that also lets them fuck her but isn't treated like shit so playing this feels pretty much like what I was looking for.

And also that's why I'm looking forward to this feature.


BTW since I saw you're open to suggestions in one of the patreon comments. How about a stripper pole in the house to strip for the gang members? Or if not that, then more interactions/comments in your club when you dance and the gang members realize it's their boss on the pole.

I thought the game was confusing at first but getting money was pretty easy tbh.

I think the mechanism where your reputation decreases when you have sex is broken. It isn't happening for me even on new games. I think it stopped happening after I selected the gang thing where it doesn't decrease your rep anymore but it seems to still apply in new games.

I'm curious, since it didn't seem to be mentioned in the roadmap, what kind of NSFW or kink content is planned in the future?

 

[VodkaFiend]

I just tried the new content (cam whoring for PC), since there is a sex shop already exist in the game, maybe consider make "gag on toy", "use some toys" and "use some toys(anal)" conditional? Players need to purchase a sex-aid (i.e., a dildo) in order to make those option available. One further step you can take is that with current trait "anal queen" maybe players would be able to purchase a larger sex toy to use on the cam show (for the purpose of generating a little more money per request.)

If your character has the striptease trait should also help generating a little more income when use the tease options.

should be "face the consequence" (just one from the crime your character just committed.)

 

[redhand]

I think it might be a good idea to have optional pegging content - if the Player Character is capable of essentially beating the shit out of anyone, some kind of dominant sex role in M/F interactions seems like a decent path

Perhaps to use for gang members with low discipline or who make insubordinate comments, or maybe for people you are having issues recruiting

Speaking of tweaks/ideas: in the previous version, I saw messages that said "Hey don't spoil your gang too much". Have you given any thought to possibly expanding on that? Maybe if their respect for the Boss, or the Gang's status falls too much, an event could pop up where the Boss is either awoken in the middle of the night, or jumped right before bed/after waking up, and thoroughly fucked by a handful of disgruntled Henchmen? Something along those lines.

Idk, the game is easy enough, and players might just start fishing for "bad" scenes by purposefully screwing up. Sounds kinda annoying in this format. I'd rather not add scenes that are only accessible by deliberately playing poorly.

BTW since I saw you're open to suggestions in one of the patreon comments. How about a stripper pole in the house to strip for the gang members? Or if not that, then more interactions/comments in your club when you dance and the gang members realize it's their boss on the pole.

Sure. I was anyway thinking about what to add for the last house upgrade. And yeah, a bit more stuff for the club definitely wouldn't hurt.

I think the mechanism where your reputation decreases when you have sex is broken. It isn't happening for me even on new games. I think it stopped happening after I selected the gang thing where it doesn't decrease your rep anymore but it seems to still apply in new games.

I'll take a look at that, thanks.

I'm curious, since it didn't seem to be mentioned in the roadmap, what kind of NSFW or kink content is planned in the future?

Nothing particularly special or new. The only thing worth mentioning is a kind of side gig that will involve police cosplay vids. Everything else will be just more of the usual stuff.

But why? That'd just be an extra step for one specific use case.

Though i'm definitely up for adding more actions based on traits. Most likely will add it.

Thaaat's fair and definitely fitting - though i'm not really a big fan of pegging, so... maybe later, after i finish everything else.

You don't have to, I made that suggestion simply because the logic of the game where players need to buy lock-pick(s) in order to break in and entering, to buy safe cracking tool in order to break safes and to have a car in order to perform car chase.

two more options about cam girls

Spoiler: nsfw images

1. audience controlled sex toy
2. a full F@#k machine

The base game is already a perfect combination of grind and skill leveling.
I only made these two suggestion because I believe it can increase replayability...

Anyway, look forward to your future release!

Cheers!

Maybe the Cam/Stream Location has toys available? Easy way to provide a handwave explanation.

The image content for it probably isn't too hard to get and integrate, but yeah if it does seem like something worth adding, then optional would be the key here because its not for everyone, just as the F/F scenes aren't and can be avoided as well already

In general this game already does a lot really well with the crime dynamics, minigames, and overall RPG mechanics - to surprising degree, really, lot of unique stuff with the heat and laundering process. The roadmap indicates heists are already going to get a good bit of attention. The one area that seems a bit sparse would be developing either more content in terms of rivals for a more successful gang, endgame, or more character development especially as it relates to the relationship of the player to their existing family and perhaps what building an empire elsewhere would do to that dynamic.

It seems like the underdog quirk prevents from getting any advance in relation (with the exception of the initial relation boost from buying drinks etc.)

 

[illumi]

Cant assign for Drug Dealer and Steroid Dealer after area Expansion even though it shows Drug Dealer 2/5 and Steroid dealer 1/5 and have many gang member with Thief traits

I forgot to add a reaction for when your rep isn't high enough for the underdogs. I'll fix it, thanks.

Yeah, i added the scaling but didn't update the conditions for assigning more dealers. Sorry about that - i'll fix it.

 

[S.H.O.D.A.N.]

I'm not sure if this is on my end or not, but the more I play during a session, the laggier the game gets. Clicking sleep can take up to 10 seconds. Very odd. I am using Firefox, if that's of any use.

 

[NuggetOfDesire]

1. small bug for the NPC Fem Window,
the clothes description is empty. Looks like there are 2 "clothes_desc" widgets in the code that causing this.
example line missing clothes:
She's generally good and healthy looking person, her clothes are and body is fit and toned, healthy appearance.

2. found another issue:
selling to the cartel distributor increases heat and CTC_crypto by a fixed amount. amount is unaffected by quantity or type of goods sold. heat gained is also very large even for a single crate. ~50% heat gained for any transaction

Thaaat's the lag from autosave. I tried to look at it, but the best i could do was an option to adjust autosave intervals in the new version. Eh, sorry.

That's a huge blunder on my part. Thank you - fixed.

Also, new version is out on patreon, if anyone's interested. It'll be available here on 16/08.

Saving shouldn't take that long. I took a look at the save data.
~94% of the savedata is filled with contants. think about the string arrays like "romano_yapping_boss" or "city_name_array". these variables are compressed and written to the save file even though they never change. This makes the save file unnecessary big.

i believe you can use the setup namespace to exclude these from the saving process. see:

I can't find how I'm supposed to order a crypto farm kit - 1 electronic shipment, $8,000 and 2 hours. Is this not implemented yet, or what am I missing?

1 electronic shipment means you need a have a packed crate of electronics in your warehouse

Makes sense, thank you. I wish i had known how variables set in twine are serialized in saves when i started this. Now it's gonna be a chore to move everything and adapt, eh. But okay, i’ll do it in small parts.
