UPDATE: BATCH One on REMASTER DONE! – November 22, 2019
(As posted on our Patreon Page... except with NSFW Syrina nudie image!!)


In the REMASTER of “Wicked Choices: Book One” there will be 4 batches of NEW content spread throughout the game… here are the batches and descriptions:

  • Batch One: Claire and Paige / Paige and the Antichrist… and results.
  • Batch Two: Syrina Seduction / Syrina and the Antichrist / The Antichrist and Terri / The Antichrist and Michelle
  • Batch Three: Princess Lynara and Jamima (Futa) / Princess Lynara and Ludvich
  • Batch Four: Karma

Currently, “Batch One” is done… it totals a little over 100 pages of new content and took 316+ renders to complete!!

I am currently 25% to 30% finished with “Batch Two” right now… and I would’ve shared preview images for it, but… heh… since I make my updates “public” and none of the characters are DRESSED in the part of the batch I’ve already done… yeah, can’t really post a sample of it here on Patreon, unless it is behind a paywall… but will have some previews to show you next time!

So, things are MOVING along!!

Additionally, this is where we currently stand in the full scope of things and the new build that is being tested…

----
  • Additional Content now has fades / dissolves between images.
  • Chapter 0 (including new content) has music.
  • Chapter 1 has music for a lot but not all parts.
  • Chapter 2 - 4 will have music placed for intro bits, may still loop into Chapters 5 - 6.
  • Chapter 5 sfx implemented.
  • All question menus fixed to include disabled choices for questions asked and need to ask 1 question before you can skip to proceed making it match Chapter 3's question options. This also fixes Chapter 5 last menu option disappearing after selecting it once.
----

So, that is where we currently stand on things… getting lots done and accomplished and you will be SURPRISED at how much things have changed with it!!

Going to get back to work now, Syrina is being impatient and wants me to get back to her doing all kinds of interesting and sexy stuff with all of you… talk to you soon!!

ASLPro3D You know it is weird; after I played Wicked Choices: Part 1 I really thought I would be the entitled brat thet everyone hates and ask for a release date continuously but it is the opposite. I really am okay with and want you to work on the game on your own pace.(Aside from your wife's condition. I hope she's recovering well) I loved the first game. I would love it even if it wasn't a porn game and I am sure you are working meticlously to bring us a great product and I am very excited about it.
It just pains me that I don't have enough money to support you on patreon. All I can do is to encourage you with my words :D
Just wanted to say that.
Yeah, glad you aren't like that, my friend... you'd have been seriously disappointed this year had you been. :cry:

Fortunately, I am back to working at my better pace, now that the wife is doing better... she still overdoes it some and requires a gentle reminder from me or suffers from pain and a need to take some ibuprofen to dull the pain from overdoing things, but I have more time to direct to the game now.

Took her to the doctor's yesterday and he also chided her for overdoing it, reminding her that she just had MAJOR, UNPLANNED surgery 6 weeks ago and it is going to take at least 12 to 16 weeks for her to feel like herself and get back to moving a bit more like her usual self... so, next Doctor's appointment is set for December 3rd, but we will be staying home from the family's on Thanksgiving as that would be too long of a day for her.

But yeah, thankfully back to rendering tons of wonderful smut for all of you and can't wait to get it into everyone's hands... and trust me, I get what it is like to be tight on money, bud, I seriously know... trust me... just keep doing what you are doing and once the game is out, let everyone else know... we know what it is like to be light on money!

Good to hear about the progress and yeah with your ambition I suspect it will never be really fast even if you do try to kill yourself delivering as soon as you can. I guess you will just need to have a sit back, think how fast you can really deliver in the future and then let us all know what a reasonable schedule can be, without killing yourself or your team. :p

Even better to hear that the wive is doing better and gets restless, maybe let her have a go at her less physically hard hobbies? I know it can be hard for someone that is always active to have to rest way too much. Health is both physical and mental afterall and it can be annoying if your body does not do what you want it to do, even if unwise to force your body anyway too early. :p

I am still suffering a bit from distraction... not having the house (and home office) empty during my regular work hours kind of messes me up... and, I must shout from my location: "Are you OK?" or "Do you need anything?" at least 30 times a day right now.

So, yeah, not fully up to speed right now as I'd like to be, but certainly moving at a much better clip now.

Yeah, you (remembering a good stretch of time you were away last year) and I both are quite familiar with the restlessness that can come from being forced to rest for long periods of time and not be able to be as active as we'd like to be. The wife is certainly getting a taste of what it is like to be me, when it comes to infirmities and restricted on what she can do or not.

But, she is at least managing and working on her carding (making greeting/holiday cards) and scrapbooking, she can't sit for long hours in a straight back chair doing it, but each day she is keeping herself busy for a couple of hours doing it.

Good for her, might also be a good time now to catch up on all those old books or such she never got around to or something similar or critiquing your artwork. :p

Maybe i missed it in this or previous posts on the subject, but is the reworked book 1 being released in chapters as they are completed with new content, or are you planning to save it all up for a single release?

Based upon Jack's word it will be one release of the whole remastered book 1 and then likely a rerelease of the remastered chapter 1 of adventures of a changed boy. gl with the recovery Haast. Glad the operation went well.

Hi dkatryl, like Haast and DA22 has said the REMASTER of "Wicked Choices: Book One" will be released as one LARGE completed piece, with all of the NEW content and bells and whistles, as well as, with a NEW save/load (import/export) codebase rather than the old code that Palanto had done for it... don't get me wrong, Palanto's was good and still worked, but Epadder would prefer to use his own code and keep the codework uniformed through all of our games.

VERY glad to hear that you woke up again and are with us!! *nods about the pharmacy* Yeah... I have enough around here, I think, that I could probably knock out my entire neighborhood for the next four months. Hmmm... Thanksgiving is coming up, maybe I should stuff the turkey with that... would make Thanksgiving a nice, quiet and relaxing one for the family!! :ROFLMAO:

Glad you are back, my friend!!

Yep, you are right DA22 and one will certainly feed into the other seamlessly now... so, with the exception of closing one and opening another, a quick import of the save, it will be like playing one REALLY LONG game with a shitload of content!!!

So FOR EVERYONE, this is how it is going to go... BIG RELEASE of the REMASTERED "Wicked Choices: Book One", then not long after a BIG RELEASE of the touched up, remaster of the Prologue to "Adventures of a Changed Boy" with "Chapter Two" added in it... plus some other goodies!! ;):giggle:

Sounds good that chapter two of the prologue will already be added to the release of chapter 1. :)

Still Trudging Forward & Making Progress! – December 6, 2019

(as posted on our Patreon Page)

Since you last heard from me, we’ve been intensely focused on the REMASTER of “Wicked Choices: Book One” around here… with me working like a crazy man rendering and writing all the new, smutty additions to the game, with Epadder and Sierra3 working on programming, tweaking, editing, as well as, adding music and sounds and fine tuning things.

The second phase of things are nearly complete, which just leaves me to do the scenes of Princess Lynara and the, very brief, final credits scene.

We already have some individuals testing the HUMONGOUS new build with all of the added content, with bells and whistles… not to mention the fresh coat of paint as well, however, I may still reach out to some of our longest subscribed patrons to help with further testing to be sure that things are how they should and are desired to be… before getting into everyone’s hands.

As for the wife, she is doing well and they had to adjust her medication, as her body isn’t producing the hormones that it should be and they want to find a good balance for her (and obviously me, as I have to live with her, LOL), but they are thinking she might be able to return to work just before or right after the holidays!

Which would be good, as I love my wife to death and enjoy having her home… but I look forward to getting more work done without distraction, because she gets more and more antsy just sitting around the house.

Speaking of which, I best get back to work here… I want to get this second phase done by the weekend or early next week, get it plugged into the game and work in Princess Lynara’s part (which should be a pretty quick addition).

We’ll talk soon and for you patron ‘old timers’, don’t be surprised if I ping you to test the latest build soon!

Till then…
~Jack

Sounding good Jack including the work, shorter days at start though if possible to recover safely and not long ones to get back on track after missed time. :p

Sound very good.
As you already know, I can't wait. But for better or worser, I don't think my normal 8-17 work will give me much time to do some other things, so Christmas Eve or after Christmas Eve would be most likely the earliest time I can enjoy playing this new old piece that I like quit a bit.;)

Other than that I would try to do, what I can and for certain also would in my limited time.

Yeah, when the doctor and I discussed it with the wife, we pretty much convinced her that when she returned to work that she do so for only a half a day of work for the first week (at least) just so that she could get used to driving a long distance and sitting hunched over a keyboard (she does accounts receivable for a large insurance firm).

I know we need the money right now, particularly with the Christmas holiday and the medical bills starting to roll in, we just want to be sure that she doesn't overdo it the first week or so... don't want her to get set back in her healing process.

I told her not to worry about it too much, as I am getting closer to being done and, hopefully, things will pick up for us with the game again... right now, I don't need her going off of her short term disablity (which pays her 70% of her usual pay), to go into work, injure herself and have us go without ANY of her pay... that would cripple us, right now.

She needs to focus on healing, building up her strength, so that she can work again without any complications. (y)

Right now, I have 3 testers... not counting Epadder and Sierra3, but I will certainly keep you in mind, so long as you have time, bud... don't want to wear you out over the holiday either!

Good to hear all is under control with the holidays coming up, remember you make that as expensive as you choose to though. :p

Yeah, 70% is absolutely loads better as nothing, but if her company has sick pay, they do not have a reasonable health/ medical insurance for employees as well? Never understood why you Americans are so opposed to a medical cost insurance system. I know Americans dislike big government, but you can overdo it. About every civilized European Nation has it and at way lower cost as current US system both in monetary and health cost. :p

For sure, for sure, my friend and I will likely call on you, as well as, DA22, Wyrme and c3p0, as all of have pumped a lot into this... and not just a lot of money, so I figure you guys will have the first right of refusal in testing this monster!! :LOL:

Yeah, 70% is a lot better than nothing, that is for sure... but when you are living on the edge from one paycheck to the next, just barely making it, it gets a bit stressful.

The wife's medical insurance (just her part, not what the company pays for) is around $1,700 a month out of her paycheck and it is a good thing we had it, because of all of the cancer tests, pre and post surgery exams and office visits and the surgery itself came to almost $210,000.00 (so far)... of that, our out of pocket costs will be just shy of $3,000... so, yeah, we are very thankful to have the insurance!!

Of course that doesn't count the money that we have to pay for my two kidney stone surgeries that I had this year... so, yup, damn glad for the insurance... if not, we'd be living on the streets, there'd be no way that we could pay back that much money... the wife only makes around $43,000 a year and I, on my disability (after getting blowed-up in Kuwait) get only $724.00 a month in disability (but I am 'double covered' with the wife's insurance and Medicare)... paying back over $200,000.00 would take us... well, forever.

But, personally, money stressing aside, I am just thankful that my wife is safe, alive, doesn't have cancer and is healing. To me, that is the most important thing. ;)

Indeed most important by far, but no extra money stresses would help and glad as well for you she had the insurance.

(LOL and then me complaining I have to pay about EUR 200 a month besides the employers part for my health insurance and then have about a max of EUR 500 of extra costs on a yearly basis for things like surgery and medicines and hospital care).
