⬇️ Lustbound JOI-DEMO 1.0 | Public release 🤩

It’s finally here!

Head on over and download our JOI demo available right now!
We highly recommend the Windows x64 PC version for the best experience in regards to performance, quality and features; however, you can alternatively play the slimmed-down browser-based WebGL version if you prefer.

Please keep in mind that this is merely a sample of what we want the full JOI experience to feel like, and it is by no means a representation of the complete Lustbound game experience.

We plan to explore many more ideas outside of JOI.

For now you’ll get to experience the basic red light / green light gameplay, along with dialogue interactions, Bluetooth sex toy integration and a handful of sex positions.

“But what if I don’t like JOI and that kind of gameplay at all?”

Well…First off, please let us know in the discord feedback channel what exactly you didn’t like. We take feedback to heart, and it can help us focus on making something you all enjoy!
Otherwise, look forward to the upcoming updates. We’ve already heard from many of you that Freeplay mode is important to you, so that is something we’ll be focusing on as well!

A detailed breakdown of what there is to experience in this JOI demo

• Interactive JOI sequence
• Red light / green light mechanic
• Edging countdown
• Assisted and simultaneous climax endings
• Reactions to tell Estelle to slow down, speed up or stop
  

Crystal ball image portal:

• Search the internet
• Or create your own custom gallery (PC version only)
• You can download and use these premade galleries, which can be found on our Discord or “here”

Bluetooth sex toy integration (PC version only)

• If your toy is supported by ButtPlugio, it should work with Lustbound!

Dynamic animation system

• Pattern driven inverse kinematics
• With a handful of sex positions to get you started

• Debug panel
  Test out manual camera mode, poses, stroke patterns, speed and more!
  

This is of course only the beginning, and we plan on adding plenty more features! With this first release out in the wild, we finally have a very stable version that we can build upon, and will be able to update you with new features more regularly!

You will notice an exclamation marked button at the bottom right, which opens a feedback form. This is the place for you to report bugs or give us your feedback on what you think of the game!

Helpful links

We’ve put together a few informative guides for those of you who are new to the demo.

Firstly, if you intend to use Bluetooth toys with the game, you should definitely give this document a look before reporting any problems you may be experiencing using your device.

Connect Bluetooth Toys

Secondly, we have included the debug panel in this version of the demo. This is extremely useful for testing different areas of the game and pushing them to their limits, but it can also cause bugs if used incorrectly.

We think people will find the “Misc” panel interesting in particular, as it will give you control over certain features of the game that only Patrons will have access to. Think “prerelease version of free play,” along with Free camera mode!

Debug Panel Information

We recommend that you take care when using the debug panel, and to avoid reporting bugs after having used it unless you absolutely know what you’re doing.

Sound effects

We are still working on the sound effects, which is our next high priority task; so while this version may still be a little quiet, don’t expect Estelle to stay quiet for very long. All the Moaning, breathing, slipping and sliding, sucking, gagging, slurping, smacking and slapping sounds AND more voice-acted dialogue are coming soon!

Free play mode

While waiting for more gameplay modes besides red light green light, we want you to have a free play mode that you can come home to and experience the sex gameplay / Bluetooth sex toys in a more straightforward way.
This is all technically available through the debug panel right now, but we will be making it more accessible and friendly via interactions with Estelle.


Character model improvements

There are a ton of enhancements awaiting the lovely Estelle, but certain ones have our immediate attention.

We will be focusing on adding features such as twist bones and improved topology, allowing us to pose her more realistically, and eyelids that follow her eye movement, making her gaze appear more natural.

We will also be focusing on facial animation so that she can be more expressive during encounters.

IKy sticky upgrade

To pave the way for multi-character interactions, we’ll be adding secondary movement inherited from another character or floating dildo.
This means that Estelle can get ploughed rather than always driving the animation, and her movements will react accordingly.

Environment

We want to gradually start transitioning into a physically-based environment, rather than floating in the void like Estelle is now.
Sex positions will be much more appealing when taking place on actual surfaces.

Ease of life enhancements

We want to refine the general UI layout and make everything more easily accessible and straightforward.

AI enhancements
We’re looking into ways to make the sequence driving AI less error-prone and easier to develop.
