New Patrons + Progress Report!
Added 2018-06-04 01:15:05 +0000 UTCHey all :)
I'm finally home from vacation ^_^ It was a very nice trip and a loooooooooooong ass drive but I'm glad to be home. We were very busy visiting family and going to places like the zoo and riding on a ferry across Seattle as well as visiting friends and going shopping here and there. I also got a lot of work on the game finished but I'll get into that after introducing a bunch of new patrons.
So without further adieu let's give a great big warm welcome to Bingbong the Bodacious, Bluefox the Bad, Derrick the Devil, Kim the Kind, Rene the Rebel, Vonvoid the Viking, Quentin the Quick, and Mackenzie the Maker. :D Whew! A lot of people. I apologize I couldn't get to you all sooner but the spouse threatened me with death if I did anything besides work on the game and even then I was limited with the amount of time I was allowed to work. There was a good point made about me being on vacation so I couldn't really be mad. Anyway! Welcome all you happy people! I hope you've found our community to be insightful, helpful and probably a little nutty too, especially the regulars. But I learned that they only burned down half the place while I was gone so that's at least a little progress :P Now then! I should be sending out all of your personalized thank you messages as soon as I finish typing them. I didn't get to do those while I was gone, so if I start them now and work on them for the rest of the day, I should be able to knock out a majority of them tonight and then I can start sending them tomorrow. :) Those personalized thank you emails will have all the codes you've earned and how to use them, so keep an eye out for em. Other than that, I really encourage each of you to ask for help if you need it, share your critiques, share your stories about your experience with the game and if you have any positive comments or suggestions to make please throw them my way.
I invite all of you to Discord as well where I spend a majority of my time! Don't worry, this link never expires.
Also, check to make sure all of your pledges are going through and that you're in a stable financial situation. The PTB is coming out in a few days and I don't have control over those who are declined etc. If you need to talk about anything, please get ahold of me so I can work with you if needed (like providing links to the PTB) :D!
Other than that, if any of you have absolutely any questions at all, don't hesitate to contact me. I'm very, very open with the development of the game and will share pretty much anything you want to know (as long as it isn't spoilers for what's going to happen after your character gets knocked unconscious).
Progress Report so far!
- I’ve begun remastering the Corruption System which is now completely finished; all of the messages therein have been completely rewritten. You’ll see the first new message between 30 and 49 Corruption. You’ll see the second new message between 50 and 69. The third and final between 70 and 99 Corruption and finally at 100 Corruption you’ll see the new game-over message. At 30 and 49 Corruption if your Dominant Mood is Sexy/Sarcasm you’ll have a 1% chance per turn to gain +1 Lust or to become Horny if your Lust is 10. If your Corruption is between 50 and 69, if you Dominant Mood is Sexy/Sarcasm you’ll have a 2% chance per turn to gain +3 Lust and an additional 10% chance to lose -1 Resist. If your Dominant Mood is Sympathy/Serious you’ll have a 1% chance per turn to lose -1 Resist. Between 70 and 99 Corruption, if you have a Dominant Mood of Sexy/Sympathy, you’ll have a 3% chance per turn to gain +5 Lust and an additional 15% chance to lose -1 Resist. If your Dominant Mood is Sympathy/Serious, you’ll have a 2% chance to lose -1 Resist. Obviously, if you have 100% Corruption, the game ends because you lose your mind to the Emtropy’s influence. In addition to what’s listed above here are the Relationship Consequences of the Corruption Levels. If your Corruption is between 30-49, you’ll have a 25% chance per Relationship Point Gain to lose -1 Relationship Points (meaning it’ll likely cancel out at least one point or remove an additional point if you lose Relationship Points). You will lose -2 Relationship Points if your Corruption is 50-69 and -3 Relationship Points if your Corruption is between 70-99.
- I’ve divided CharmSkill up a little more than it was. Originally, it was 0, 1-3, 4-9 and 10. Now it’s 0, 1-3, 4-6, 7-9, 10. I’ve also taken away the extra Relationship Bonus (+1) you get from 1-3. Once you hit 4-9 you’ll get an additional +1 toward Relationship Points, 7-9 will receive +2 Relationship Points and 10 CharmSkill will receive +3. As always Suave and Escort Specialities will receive a bonus +1 Relationship Point no matter what level of CharmSkill the Player is currently at.
- I’ve added Titles to the game and all the hard code for it is finished. There are currently 5 titles; the Alpha Male, the Well-Endowed, the Zombie Killer, Slayer of the Undead, and Albino Ass-Kicker. In order to use titles you have to earn them via special tasks, quests or by passing certain parameters and then select them in the Title Menu Select. If you earn a Title via special parameters and then no longer meet those parameters than you will lose the Title (which can be earned by re-meeting those special parameters). In order to use the Alpha Male title, you have to have a Penis Size of 10-Inches or bigger and be a Male. In order to use the Well-Endowed title you must have a Breast Size of DD or larger, you can Male or Female. In order to use Zombie Killer you have to kill 7 Zombies in Regular Difficulty before you reach the The Edge. You can be Male or Female. In order to use Slayer of the Undead you have to kill 17 Zombies in Noble Difficulty before you reach the The Edge. You can be Male or Female. In order to use Albino Ass-Kicker you have to kill the Pale Abomination in Noble Difficulty.
^ I may end up making this something that you can earn on Patreon too. Like a special title for donators. We'll see.
- I have adjusted ALL of the spacing in all of Hannah’s Initial Conversation Scripts. Hopefully, things will be more spaced out and easier to read and in smaller chunks. Lemme know if you find any weird discrepancies with any of the scripts including weird continuations that don’t seem like the conversations fit together. I don’t think there are any but just in case.
- I adjusted some of the spacing in the entrance scripts to the Living Room in the Withered Snag for every Mood. Hopefully, that’ll break things up a little bit.
- Hannah Picksnap now has a brand-new picture for her Sympathy/Serious Moods. My art has been removed and has been replaced with our new artists’ work 😊 Please give a warm welcome to Julioalqae!
- I’ve begun and finished the Tallification Elixir Remaster, so far the general description has been completely remastered and the hard code is ready to go. Every script has been remastered as well, including the new Bad End although it’s not so much a Bad End as it is a Neutral End. Each time you consume the Elixir you also have a 25% chance to increase your Strength by +1 or a 20% chance to increase your Strength by +2.
- There is now a Season Identification on the Stat’s Page. Remember a Season isn’t assigned until you enter the Waterhole. I also added a Calendar reminder as well.
- I have begun the remaster of the Experimentation Cells and so far the general description is finished.
Bug Fixes
- Orc-Descended Skin showing up as Unknown in the Player Description. The problem was the variable Skin was written as skincolor which was throwing an unknown. This has been resolved.
Those are pretty much the major things. Entice has also been worked on as well but it's just a lot of hard code and nothing substantial to report yet. Not bad for being on vacation, huh? ^_~ I was working pretty hard when I was given the opportunities. I still have a couple of days as well before the first half of the new PTB release comes out too so I hope to add a couple more awesome things for you guys to test.
That's pretty much all I got for the time being! :D
Anonynn.
