I don't know the best way to do this, but there could be an alternate way to do the <spoiler> mechanic where instead of the streamer buying additional <spoiler>, she let's her viewers 'donate' her the additional <spoiler>. And you could post her reaction to that. Maybe she gets turned on that stream wants her so <spoiler>, maybe she didn't think they would go for it, and maybe she's a little scared of the potential. Perhaps this mode only turns up if you give birth to the maximum number of babies.

this doesn't seem realistic from a worldbuilding perspective, and would also remove a money sink from the game when I should really be doing the opposite
btw, the current long term plan is to replicate the poses in character studio so I can more easily manipulate posture, change outfits, etc. this would allow me to introduce new outfits as something to spend money on. however i still need more permanent money sinks.
currently the most plausible option available to me is:
-give the people what they want and increase the max implants to an absurd number that will require daily folate. also increase max size of course
-change calorie requirement scaling to enforce this
-nerf laxative to once per day and 0.5x calorie value
>this doesn't seem realistic from a worldbuilding perspective
Hah, a doctor implanting embryos in a random teenager who has no problem getting pregnant isn't really realistic either. But you can craft the world you want, so point taken.
I agree that there needs to be a larger money sink. Outfits are an obvious good choice.
Increasing max implants I'm very much into.
A lot of my ideas for cash sinks are hard because they are basically nerfs, but I think these could be in the vein of the theme:
- Pay to have sex: in game this shown as pay for uber for 'boyfriend' to visit (or alternately hire a male sex worker to do the job).
- Lower initial semen volume and pay for drugs to increase volume (kinda meh for realism, but the semen volume is insanely nuts to begin with, and modifying the 'boyfriend' is in theme?) or pay to have more men visit to effectively increase volume. If you go this route, change the sex minigame to more clearly reflect multiple men orgasming.
- [make semen drain super fast, closer to reality] Pay for a cervical plug, or a dildo that you could turn on or off to slow down semen draining speed.
- If you're willing to nerf things, pretty much all the upgrades from achievements could be locked behind $$$
- You could change what food you eat for a one time cost. Start the streamer out with small items (grapes/crackers), then upgrade to fries, muffins, sandwich, then finally big burger (different volumes per item, doesn't do much since the game mechanic really revolves around max capacity, but it can help highlight that eating the big burger is a lot of food when the player goes from clicking a bunch to have a meal of grapes to realizing clicking the burger fills you up what used to take 10 small items- a real experience emphasizing how large the large meal is).
- Maybe unlock water, soda, big soda since you were talking about using a bloated with gas mechanic. Maybe make liquid in water/soda use a different mechanic where it doesn't bloat the intestine and flushes fast.
- You could have the player order more weed for a premium amount of $$$.
- I know I would like to pay for an upgrade that makes night progress more quickly, since it is common for me late game to want to zoom through days and sleeping is a huge delay on that. But it is a meta upgrade, and not thematically aligned with everything else you buy, which are in-game items.
One thing to watch out for- right now there is so little demand for money, it's pretty easy to get the cash you need and then just explore the rest of the game. If you start playing to maximize money, the weird stream cash payout is frusterating. Basically, the bigger your pregnant belly is, the harder it is to make money since you can't transition through as many belly sizes. I would try to make that less frustrating if the game focuses more on making profits. It could even be a $$ upgrade, where the streamer branches out and tries to get preg/fat/immobile fetishists to watch in addition to stuffing fans.
Anyways, here's another huge list of game mechanics- I'll leave you to the actual hard work of programming them in. I'm sure you didn't have much on your plate anyways with the programming /s
