Major Feature Update 2

Second Helpings
A browser game made in HTML5

Hi everyone!

I've finally released the second big update, thank you so much for your patience. Please do let me know if you encounter any bugs.

Here's what's inside:

Player Weight Gain

A new optional feature available when you start a new game. Adds the following:

  • You'll eat the same food as girls on dates and gain weight just like they do!
  • When you activate this, you'll be prompted to create your player character and choose your starting appearance.
  • You can view your current appearance and stats by using a special 'Check Mirror' action at home. 
  • Exercise actions will cause you to lose weight & gain fitness.
  • Exercise and food options are also available when you visit town locations alone.
  • Girls will comment on your weight, you'll outgrow your clothes & you'll notice how big you're getting when you're at home, walking around town, exercising or having sex.
  • Girls have special mutual gaining dialogue for when you're both getting fat.
  • Be careful! Some girls might become more difficult to date once you get fat.
  • If you become immobile, you'll be reliant on disability income, unable to leave your home, be looked after by a carer and have to call & ask the girls to visit you.
  • It's possible to fatten your carer.
  • Get too fat and you'll end up at Gentle Meadows Care Home for the Extremely Obese!

New Dialogue

Added lots more lines of dialogue for every personality. The comments girls make about their weight gains are much more varied. Girls also have unique dialogue for repeated stuffings/overstuffings in the same day.

Day of the Week

The day counter in the header now shows what day of the week it is (e.g. Monday, Sunday). Girls get two days off per week, determined by their job. If you date a girl when she's off work, you can keep the date going until the day ends.

Day Trips

Take a girl on a day trip out of town when she's off work for double affection and access to lots of new activities. There are four destinations:

  • London
  • The Lake District
  • Bournemouth Beach
  • Theme Park

Day Off Reminders

To make sure you don't miss day trip opportunities, a new setting lets you toggle reminders for when your favourited girls have the day off from work. It's on by default.

Town Events

A new 'Check Local News' button at home lets you see what upcoming events are being held in town. These include:

  • Eating competition
  • All-you-can-eat buffet
  • Food market
  • Charity bake sale
  • Pub quiz (with lots of pub food!)

Each event has a fattening mini game. The schedule changes every week to make sure you get a chance to go when your girls are free.

Locations with events active are also clearly marked when choosing where to go for a date.

Increased Level Cap to 20

With eleven new feeder upgrades to unlock, including some added to earlier levels.

Dizzy's Delightful Doughnuts

A new level 15 unlock allows you to open a shop that sells the most addictive, fattening doughnuts imaginable. Your goal: fatten the town's populace to a 99% obesity rate. You'll see the impact when you explore town, read the local newspaper and meet new girls.

Dizzy's Addiction

The doughnut shop is also a new date location. If a girl takes a bite of a Dizzy's doughnut, she'll become addicted with fattening results. Don't worry, it's possible for you to cure the addiction if you change your mind later.

New Game Plus

Once a town's obesity rate hits 99%, you'll be able to move to a new town from the train station. You'll get a clean phone contact list and a whole new set of girls to meet, whilst retaining your money, level & upgrades. It's also the perfect place to open another shop selling Dizzy's. You can take the train to visit or move back to any of your old towns at any time.

Fatten the Whole Country

Every time you obesify a town, the national obesity rate will increase & the next town you move to will be fatter than the last. The new 'Check Local News' option at your home lets you track both local and national obesity rates and gives some insights into the effect this is having on the UK.

Watch TV

A new option at home allows you to quickly skip a timeslot. If you've been busy fattening up the country, you might also see news reports on the growing obesity crisis.

Plus:

  • When deleting a contact from your phone, you now have the option to remove the girl from the game entirely.
  • It is now possible to edit custom girls. Changes will not affect girls already added to existing towns. 
  • Skin tone is now its own seperate field & added more options for this.
  • Added more eye colour options (only available in Create-a-Girl or player character creation).
  • The minimum height has been reduced from 4'11" to 4'10".
  • You must now pick at least one liked & disliked interest when creating a custom girl.
  • Minor UI improvements to Create-a-Girl, Settings & Feeder Upgrades.
  • Fixed a bug where custom girls could be added to your town twice.
  • Fixed a bug causing a care assistant's appearance to change if she becomes a care home resident.
  • Fixed a bug where care assistants are sometimes uninteractable if they become a care home resident and then lose enough weight to leave the care home.
