Weekly report 141
Hi, everybody!

First of all, thank you to all of you who left comments on our last report or sent us messages on Discord expressing your support and encouragement. It was a tough week, but it's over. I'm back home --was discharged on Monday-- and am recovering rapidly -- just have to get used to crutches again and help Chestnut with the kids as much as possible. Here's a summary of our work:

Chestnut
She finished two smaller cutscenes, starting from her storyboard designs and completing the whole thing, including hand/face variations (something she usually does in the later stages of development). They look great, and I can't wait to add them to the game. Today she started designing a new cutscene, but it's not yet finished, and it's what she'll work on tomorrow and early next week.

Pistachio
I posed scenes from Gomira's first quest, including what I had mentioned in the earlier report involving a special set of sprites (it turns out it wasn't needed, but Chestnut had to arrange specific placement of them in a scene).

Next week's plan
Chestnut will continue to work on cutscenes, finishing as many of the smaller ones as possible.
I need to both add the completed artwork to the game and finish a series of events that have been a lot more complicated than I thought they would be and move on to the next event.

That's all, and I hope you have a great weekend.
Cheers

You got to wonder what they would call their kids, Walnut, Beechnut or just plain peanut.

We gonna be sucked dry?

Hey, a discerning vampire knows to only drink a bit from their blood dolls, they are hard to replace without drawing suspicion! That is why it is always good to stock up when you can!

I can't help but shed a tear thinking how many YEARS we are from pregnancy content.

I love the game, but my heart breaks, seeing all those sad flat bellies. Lana, my sweet Lana, how lonely you must be. When will this cruel world allow me to fill you with love and life (and around ten ounces of semen, booyah!)? I weep for the day when our MC will be surrounded by warm, happy swollen bellies.

Srsly, when the fuck I gonna see some Pregg-ooooooos?!?!?!??

Edit: Too bad I cannot get it in one post.

So if I'm not mistaken its 40% complete from late July until now (about 6 months)? Seems like updates are going to take longer than a year each from this point onwards? For reference the last update took 10 months. This is gonna be a very long ride guys...

Or howabout when they are 8-12 and find out what there parents nutjob

No, a small difference over 2 weeks, not 6 months. I just re-posted their current update.

That's some sick fetish fantasy.

Oh I was just talking about the overall development time that was shown at the very bottom bar (total content). It's at 40% since the last update which was in July.

Lucy Westerna did not die because of Dracula's bite, she died because the geniuses decided to give her blood transfusions from multiple donors with no knowledge of blood types.

What else could they do ? They were at least smart enough to recognise that traditional bloodletting would not better Lucy's chances

They might, if they keep up with 2-3 updates every year, it's fine by me. There seems to be still a lot the do, until you get like a 1000 different special powers. He only got a few now.

This plays into my personal theory, which is that the statues in the old dead king ghost's basement each represent one of the women you can gain a power from. One is an Elf, which would fit Lana. There's also a Pixie and an Orc (Maple and Gomira). There appears to be a human (obv we are going to gain Madeline's power, cmon), an angel, and a mermaid as well! However, one of them is a Demon, and my theory took a bit of a knock when Lassie didn't apparently gain a power after sealing the deal with Rose. But maybe it just has yet to unlock, or something else is required to happen for a human to gain a power from a demon? Maybe Lassie has to gain his powers in a certain order. Let's be honest - we don't truly understand how the rules of Magical Powers You Copy By Fucking Girls goes. We only have a short speech from a frequently confused ancient ghost who probably has his robe on backward. MagicNuts are still free to invent all sorts of rules governing the process which will result in a satisfactory explanation of why Lassie didn't gain a power from Rose. *hint, hint*

No idea about what powers will be gained from the other girls overall, other than Madeline's since we know what hers is. (Maybe Lassie can use it to play mind games on the evil lord and his goons? or to seduce women?) But I'm hoping Maple's power is the power to shrink down and become tiny! Imagine Lassie visiting a Pixie city full of cute three inch tall ladies to seduce. And shrinking to fit through a keyhole or some such could come in handy for plot purposes.

Peanut is the clear winner here, it's too cute!

so... do you think we'll b getting a vampire?

Beat me to it! XD

Couldn't agree more, but we ought to be patient. Lots of porn VN's promise pregnancy mechanics, few deliver. The few that do deliver, usually disappoint. I have high hopes for how MN are going to implement it. The only thing worse than a broken promise for pregnancy game mechanics, is a rushed and botched attempt. Lassie being a stand up kinda guy, there will be no deadbeatery about it! I can't wait to see him and Myrtle and Rose and Lana and Madeline and Hannah and Gretta and etc., etc., raising their 57 kids in the former evil lord's palace.

There are no powers to be gained by having sex with ordinary women (or pixies, demons, orcs, or whatever). Only a few families in the realm have Gifts, which are the magical powers Lassie can 'learn' and that will be acquired only in the main story bits. So far, we only know that Lana, Princess Serena, and Lady Madeline have gifts. The statues are most likely just a representation of the different races existing in the realm.

One of my favorite novels is The Dracula Tapes from Fred Saberhagen. In it, Vlad offers his own rebuttal to Bram Stoker's version of events.

Didn't MC get wings, but it's already months back, don't know anymore how it ended. I got the feeling he rejected them. Have to play the game again some day...

Please no trans, that's only our fucked up modern world. This game is playing in the past.

Let me guess, the only thing that seemed off to you about the king of Sparta deriding the Athenians as "boy-lovers" in 300 was the insinuation that homosexuality existed at all in ancient Greece, too, right?

I don't have time to go into the entire well-documented existence of what we would today call trans and non-binary people throughout history and across cultures, but here,

And the other part is, no, this game isn't in "the past". It's in a fantasy setting already chock-full of anachronisms as compared to its primary real-world inspiration of medieval Europe. The creators can put whatever they like and it won't be out of place, because they're who gets to decide what's out of place in a world they made up.

And I point all this out as someone who isn't even particularly interested in trans content in my porn - the punk girlfriend is cis on my Summertime Saga save - I'm just not bothered by the mere acknowledgement that trans people exist and deserve to be treated with the same basic human dignity as you or I, as you seem to be by describing the modern world as "fucked up" for (partially) doing so.

In a world where magical transformations ae possible, magical transitions would also exist. It would probably be a relatively simple spell to make the body match the brain. As long as we have genetic and neurological diversity, as long we do not stigmatize such diversity, we will have LGBTQ+ individuals. Such diversity is as normal as left handedness, freckles, or red hair. My own AVN worlds, fantasy, steampunk, contemporary, or science fiction, such things will not carry stigma...because they're my worlds!
