OK so I'm about to tell y'all some things that not a lot of people knew until now. As well as introduce you to my own "Dwarf Fortress of porn" game. Which - for the uninitiated - this means its been in development, on and off, forever and will continue to be until the game A.I achieves singularity. But since it's been a while, I'll also need to recap.
X X X
Skip this if you don't care how the sausage was made.
It all began development in late 2014. My ass had been out of high school for a few years and had been immediately embraced a life of degeneracy. I became a cam model, the male kind. And say what you want but fuck you I made some money. For the guys in the back, it is possible to take a good dick pic but you will attract about as many men and you will women. And trust me nobody cares about about that anyway. It really is about the person behind the camera (no shit, really). Regardless, I took it a step further and started a porn company.
But it wasn't really, not yet. See, I was a nerd and a freak. And the latter needed an outlet so I brought on a couple friends and we started

on a blog for fun. We literally cold called other sex workers, interviewed (

) them for what would be the brand we built. Most importantly though, I joined a few invite-only adult social networks and generally got to work learning everything, EVERYTHING about running a porn company.Fast-forward and we were many headaches into this whole thing. The games' development was a struggle the entire time. Solo dev, custom engine, no funding. We wrote 30+ blogs about this and even spoke to publishers you've heard of who wanted to vanilla-fy this thing to shit but we kept saying no. We thought we had it, but we did not. And so instead of risking it all we had to take a step back and re-evaluate what we wanted to do here. That was after a disastrous Steam release in which they ignored our calls for early access and censored this game to death.
So now it's free and all I want is to pour everything I know into making the most realistic but kind-of-stupid-in-a-fun way, porn biz sim.

Lately I've been inspired to work on this. Largely because with everything going on we all need something that brings us a little joy right? Even though I had to overcome a passionate hate for my own game (burnout is bitch) and it hasn't done my career any favors I think it's about that time again. I really have learned a lot about the industry as well as having become a much better developer since writing the engine. You will find flaws. The UI needs help, so do the controls and animations. This was always a one-man venture but it's about time I include you al as well. So feel free to check it out and let me know how much you hate it too. And I'll be posting here regularly (unless you run me out) because I think yall will hold me more accountable to finish this than anyone else at this point. Enjoy!
PS: I'm also (and fucking always) looking for pixel artists to help out!
