Hey, the new update is finally here. I apologize for taking so long. There were some issues during development, more is explained in the last paragraph, but all you really need to know is that I’m taking measures to prevent future problems and that I’ll do my best to maintain a more constant communication (especially through discord), replying to comments and giving updates more often. On the wall of text below I share some thoughts about the game and things, definitely not a mandatory read and won’t be asked on the test. And lastly, I won’t be able to work on the game for a while, I’ll have to stop in a few days and will be able to continue around mid November, I’ll make a post when I’m back.
Regarding the update. I feel like these additions paint a clearer picture about the direction I want the game to take, a sandbox porn game with a customizable experience. The best example being the exhib and shy traits. The exhibitionism fetish is very broad, some people only enjoy it when the girl gets embarrassed by the situations she gets in, others like it if she enjoys the attention, I hope to make a game that both of them can enjoy. That of course has downsides, the risk of the game becoming broad but shallow, but I believe that can be managed, specially if you guys don’t mind telling me when I’m fumbling the bag.
The UI update was absolutely necessary. Animation stuff is always a pain since I’m new to making them and banging my head against the keyboard hasn’t proved very effective, but I do believe I improved, and hopefully you do too. The traits concept is fun, I would really like it if you shared your ideas for traits if you get any, there’s a lot to explore there. The clumsy and shy traits are made with the ENF crowd in mind, hope you enjoy them. I find the blackmail stuff very interesting too, I had some drafts for the text related to the dialogue and it was hard to decide what tone to choose. Also, the features currently in the game are just things you can do, there’s no real challenge or things to manage, but the blackmail ties in nicely with a feature that addresses that and that I plan to add with the next update, reputation.
I know sex is a highly requested feature for these types of games, they’re porn games after all. For that I need new 3D models for male NPCs, since I’m not a very good artist I would need your monetary support. It felt irresponsible to open a patreon or something and then fuck off for a month, so I’ll do it when I’m back.
It’s been around six months since the last update. Shortly after I uploaded it something happened in my personal life and it affected me greatly. In the state I was in I couldn’t work on the game, and so I stopped. I honestly don’t know how long the break was but I estimate it must have been around three to four months. After that I began working on the game again and was nearly done with the update, but one day I opened Unity and the project was corrupted, everything was a mess. The last backup? From before the last update of course. It did give me a chance to review some of the older code I had written but it also set me back quite a bit. Now, everytime I close the editor I carefully backup the project and make a copy on the cloud. There wasn’t much to do about the first issue, but on the second one I take full responsibility, it was completely avoidable.
