Really setting up the next release to be spicy. If he drags this out longer it's going to hurt the game if the MC doesn't finally get with Sophie and potentially with some other "friends".

I thought the first blackmail nonsense scenes where bad, and maybe the dev would make it end quickly. Its badly written and out of place with everything else going on.. and then they double down on and makes it even dumber. Its making me hate the mc and his reasoning for everything is fucking retarded. Its so fake and manufactured and out of place that it just takes me completely out of the game every time it comes up. I love the rest of the game, its really good but man this is getting old real fast.
I suspect the sole purpose is to put the player in a bad mood. In my opinion, the blackmailing is unnecessary; it's completely unrealistic and makes the MC look like an idiot, all without actually contributing anything to the game (if anything, it's just messing it up). Removing that aspect would definitely improve the game.

Any advice on Cara. I get her to one O, but I'm just shy of 2 more "attacks" for her 2nd before MC stamina runs out. Any way to "optimize" the scene? lol
The conversation between her and the MC during the date made me rule her out.

I hope you've had a good week.
I've mostly been busy working on the back-end of the game and getting things prepped for future content, but I've also made progress on part 4 itself.
Dev Report
  • I spent a full week restructuring my outline to ensure the pregnancy content doesn't slow down development with a ridiculous amount of alternative renders (I'll explain this fully below). The work for this still isn't finished, so I'll finish it over the next two weeks.
  • Day 38 is written and coded. I just have one scene that needs expanding.
  • Day 39 is half written and coded.
  • I've started rendering day 38.
  • I've been listening to everyone's feedback after the last update and fixing the bug reports as they come in. This is mostly just spelling and grammar errors, duplicate/wrong code, etc.
  • One person got stuck in the pleasure game with no way to end it. We figured out that if one particular choice is made as your 11th choice, the game won't jump to the end scene. I've fixed this, but it's such a rare bug to happen that I'm okay with leaving it in until the next update instead of creating a new version.
  • I've also incorporated Tom Hook's Angela naming mod into the game after he got in touch with me. This improves the way the characters refer to Angela.

Pregnancy Content

As I said I would in the last dev report, I've spent about a week restructuring my outline to try and figure out the best way to include the pregnancy content without needing to do an insane number of alternative renders. However, I have worked out how I'm going to do the pregnancy content.

Pregnancy in the game will essentially be an on/off switch. It's the only feasible way not to do too many alt renders. But it would obviously make no sense to have the women you're not in a relationship with be pregnant, so I'm going to start dividing the content/interactions/stories more and cutting the women whose path you're not on from the game. So basically, if you're on their path, you'll see them, but if you aren't, you won't see them anymore. Some LIs like Grace and Sophie will still be in the game as they're important to the main plot, but this won't create too much extra work.

There was always a plan to have the MC move into a new house with his harem (the actual home of pleasure), so I've moved this event to earlier in the game when the pregnancy content properly kicks in. This way, the pregnancy on/off switch will work and development won't get slowed down by the pregnancy content too drastically.

However, some of the LIs will be more removed from the main group, so I'm going to include individual pregnancy switches where I can. I won't say which women this will happen with. I don't want to give spoilers for who stays separated from the main group, but let's just say, some LIs aren't as central to the plot, while others staying separated is part of the main plot. You'll understand what I mean by this at the end of ep 2 (the next release).

This way, I only have to do the main render and one alt render (for the most part) when pregnancy kicks in, instead of a ridiculous amount for every possible combination of pregnant women.

With love,
Badger

listening to only what he wants to hear, nothing wrong with a game right now besides some spelling and grammar, at all...
i can't fucking imagine what all his paying subs just swallowed that blackmail garbage and happily moved on, for real?

A walkthrough would be nice, there are many choices that I have no idea about the future outcome. For example, I'm in the art gallery with Beth and Bo, the choice is if I'm interested or not in Bo, if I choose yes, would mean that she's going to be on a straight path?

I want to push as many girls on the bi curious path as possible, I want Sophie to have a field day with all companions that's available to her:p. It's just not very clear what I'm choosing for a good portion of the time.

When Sophie asks you if you’re interested in Bo before the art gallery say that you are, then say you want a polyamorous relationship, then that you’re good with sharing Bo with her.

That first scene from the previous update is the reason I have yet to play the previous update. And now I hear with the latest update it just gets worse? Smh. I'm going to play it myself this time and see what's up but I can't say I have high expectations.

After such a good start, this is just discouraging.
I finally played the previous update and the latest update together last night. It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, to be honest.

You might want to reconsider the whole Blackmail thing if you ever plan to release your game on Steam. Vinovella (the maker of Fetish locator) had a blackmail plot in their game and they were forced to remove it before they could get it listed on Steam.
Steam are pretty liberal these days about what they will allow on their platform, but two things they definitely ban (and there could be more) are Blackmail and School settings (college settings are usually okay)

so if im reading things correctly how he plans to do pregnancy is basically if you are on their path they will always get pregnant. If that is the case im not a fan of it personally but I understand the reasons why just be one small minor thing I dislike. But that is more of a me issue cause I only really like pregnancy as a ending or if a LI feels special to me. But overall not a big deal at all I still like the game

According to the dev's response on Discord (on the game server, it's there for anyone to see), the game is gradually shifting from a slice of life to a game of crime and debauchery. Blackmail is just the beginning. Personally, I'm not too keen on the change, so there's a good chance I'll end up abandoning the game:

I'd say the Dev isn't around. If you want to tell him, you'll have to go to Discord.
