Version 0.1.0.0 beta - development news (updated 16/06/2018)

Hi guys and gals, this post offers you a collection of news about the next version of Holiday Island (0.1.0.0 beta). 

Yes, I decided to switch to beta status with the next version update.

There will be smaller, more frequent content updates, called content addons. They will include bug fixes and new content as well.
The change log below is based on the vanilla 0.0.9 alpha release.

0.1.0.0 beta will include everything from 0.0.9 alpha including the content addons.

New features and content 

Minor improvements and changes  

Bug fixes


Is the update going to break save games?:  
0.0.9.2 alpha (content addon 1) --> Save games from 0.0.8 and later can still be used. Jennifer might get reset once. Earlier saves are no longer supported.
0.0.9.3 alpha (content addon 2) --> same as for 0.0.9.2
0.1.0.0 beta --> same as for 0.0.9.2

"You can get the sperm congestion treatment now also from Desire or Brenda" How can i get it ?

You need to have her body data (weight, breastsize etc) and then buy it in the shop

NNICE! ))) Hope Aly will have some more screentime in next addon. ) The thing with Amy is - how to obtain that special bikini? No clue... (

Argrond

Can you upload new version today? I am very impatient, I love your game.

I hope it won't be necessary.

Darkhound

Feel free to take an extra day or two if necessary. Your output is still once per month, and this update is quite ambitious.

Puppet Master

That's a great idea. The title would suit her well. I will add it :)

Darkhound

Is Joy a doctor? We learned in the last release that Joy is a genome researcher. It seems likely, therefore, that she has either an MD degree or a PhD in molecular genetics or both. If so, she is entitled to be addressed as Dr. Resplandor. I think it would add to Joy's mystique to use this title. Particularly in that first letter that appears under the player's door. If it were from "Dr. Resplandor", he would very likely assume it was from a man, so the surprise of meeting Joy and finding out that it was she would be greater.

Is there going to be any hot tub scenes for girls? I want it for Alice if it is yes. The massage scene can be improved, maybe boob sex.

Amy doesn't invite me to private room

Hi, the lapdance is complete. I don't have any plans to expand it. Concerning the breast compare event, yes I want to add additional content to the scene later on. Could either be Natasha coming along or the guy getting some attention from Aly and Faye.

Darkhound

Love all of the "teased" updates and can't wait to see how it all shapes up (and I understand the amount of work and time it takes as well between concept, creation of images, and compiling time), but I was wondering - are there plans to tackle the follow-up sections for Aly and Faye's breast compare scene or Deisre's lapdance? I know it all takes time and you're working to the asks of the Superior Patrons, but just wondering. Thanks for all the great work and content!

Who knows what the future might hold :)

Darkhound

Thanks buddy :) Happy you like the new additions.

Darkhound

Thanks for the comment :) Jennifer will also get the hug / kiss and present actions in th next version.

Darkhound

This keeps getting better and better. At first there is the aerobic workout with Jessi which -is- nice, but you still look a bit jealous at heathers pool lotion scene. Then a barscene with special event is added for dear Jessi which promises a bright and splendid future. And then... a night scene with Jessi at the pool gets featured together with some great screenshots. Life suddenly seems to good to be true.

Any hope for Strip Twister, or is that just a dream?

Junior Kessler

I love that hug/kiss/gift is now available in the restaurant! The girls who are working and are unavailable for these interactions often get mad because the MC doesn't pay them enough attention. Being able to hug/kiss/gift them while they're on break will make their anger less likely.

Puppet Master

Hi, thanks for writing what you would like to have changed in the game. A lot of the stuff doesn't work or isn't done as you would liek to have it for a reason (or for several). 1) I will check the dialogue between the two and see what I can do. 2) It's not necessary in my opinion, but I can squeeze in another image and replace the last one by one without the stockings. 3) I can do that, good idea. 4) I've decided against it. Far too much work (lots of renders) and if if if if if for all the texts. Doesn't make sense for so little benefit. 5) I've changed it. 6) I won't change that - same story - far too much work for little to no benefit. 7) The scene will get a menu choice where you can decline it. I wanted to change that anyway. there won't be any new sunlotion buttons. 8) Too complicated and not necessary. The girls will all get reward scenes sooner or later and these will be linked to the contest. 9) Yes - you get points for trying to be charming and for hacking/sneeking when ever you use the skills as well. This is not a bug, but an intended functionality. 10) No - A lot of work went into that part of the interface as it is - I like it that way and won't change it :)

Darkhound

Here are some suggestions for things way in the future. Some months ago, I gave you a big list of ideas. I'm proud to say about half of them have been implemented and others are in the works. Hopefully, my suggestions will inspire you, but if not, then just store them away for whatever. 1) Natasha, Heather, Eva, Renee, Aly, Ivy, and Alice should be able to do Housekeeping and get a fantasy/sex scene. 2) Natasha and Ivy should be able to give a massage. Ivy could also give a really strenuous massage. 3) Getting a Massage or Lounging should be more beneficial in game terms. After getting the scene with the massage girl, there seems to be no reason to get a massage. Maybe allow us to exercise more if we get a massage. Massage increases Endurance and lowers Lust, Lounging does the same. Maybe Massage could Increase Lust and Lower Endurance instead. Lounging could increase Looks because of Suntanning. 4) Add a Best Breasts Contest on Friday, maybe make it a wet t-shirt contest. The girls might extol their virtues during it, like Faye bragging about her M-cup, Eva saying how slim she is while sporting big boobs, Aly could say how hers are big and perfectly shaped, Ivy could say how her pecs make her boobs stand out more. Instead, it could be a Mystery Boobs Contest where the girls stick their chests through a hole in a curtain for the MC to guess who she is, with Ivy on her knees trying to fool the MC. Alternately, the MC could be blindfolded, and get to feel the boobs. Then there would be text describing what he's feeling, and the player has to guess who it is from the description. For example, big and firm could be Ivy, while huge and dense could be Faye. 5) Skinny dipping scene with one or more girls after the bar closes. Have it trigger randomly. Start with Amy, Natasha and Alice. You can reuse the scene with them on the pool float, just rework it so that the girl and the MC are nude. Amy could even do the underwater sex scene.

Puppet Master

Suggestions for Holiday Island 0.1.0 Beta (or much later): 1) When Aly says, "36K is nothing to sneeze at. And your band size is what? Just 32?" Faye replies, "Yes, that's right, only 32. *giggles*" Can you add to Faye's line on the same page, "A smaller band size means that my frame is smaller than yours, but being skinnier actually makes my boobs look even bigger than they are." Then change Aly's line from "Don't you have anything more to say???" to "That's what I mean, they only look bigger!!!" This will explain bra sizes a little better for those not in the know. Also, it seems out of character for Faye to call Aly a bitch. The idea is to be insulting, but not so bad that Faye wouldn't try to make Aly feel better after the comparison. Instead she can call her: small-fry, small-time, pint size, junior, wee lass, peanut, baby girl, little (or li'l) girl, little (or li'l) sis, wannabe, peewee, tiny, teeny, puny, minor-league, or mini me. 2) Alice needs a completely nude pic for the strip poker game. She has her stockings on in the last pic of the Strip Poker Game. She should get another 100 chips and the MC should have to beat her again to get her completely nude. 3) The MC should be able to take the green pill himself to increase his Lust stat. This would be useful in getting the high lust for the blue pill. Also, the sex with Ivy needs the Blue pill, high Lust and low Endurance. This is hard to do if your Endurance is high. If we could take the green pill ourselves. we could masturbate to get Endurance down, then take the Green pill to increase our Lust. 4) When the MC gives girls a gift, we need to see him holding the gift he is giving them. They should also say the name of the gift more naturally. Like, "Roses! I love them! Thank you, so much!" rather than "I love sweets large!" Then, when they hug, the gift disappears and they switch sides because you are reusing the hug picture. This is fine, but flip the pic and add the gift in the girl's hand. 5) Masturbate scene says "Who" should be "Whom" or better yet "Which girl." 6) When choosing which girl to masturbate to, give us the faces and names of all girls on the island. (See my post in community for my mock up) 7) Instead of automatically putting sun lotion on the girl's backs, have it be a button which we activate instead. Maybe a sun or a bottle to add to the lounger, swim and play in the pool buttons. Having the sun lotion scene interrupt you with no choice is going to get very annoying as more girls get that scene. 8) When the girls win the Best Butts Contest you could link it to scenes which already exist. For example, if Amy wins, she could schedule an appointment which leads to her inviting you in after showering scene. If Ivy wins, she could say, "I'm going to give you your reward right now" and carries you to your room for sex. 9) Points are being given for Charm and Hack even if you don't read. 10) On the phone, give us 4 buttons: Appts., Events, Scenes, Sexts. Then put all sexts on its own page. All sexts are available for Jessica's personal screen, this could be available for all girls. Also, once the picture is chosen for the girl, a new picture shouldn't replace it unless we make that choice. Obviously, I don't expect anything right away, but I know you're looking for some things to focus on for the new Beta, if not 0.1.0, then in the future, or just file it away for someday. Hopefully these changes are easily done and give us more than a little reward for the effort. If not, it's cool. I honestly love all the additions you've made for the sake of playability: the pop up phone with messages and alerts, the rescheduling, the delete saved games, the zoom function, and the shuffle girls button. I love the game and will continue supporting you on Patreon. I understand that it's a large sandbox and you are filling it as fast as you can. It seems like every month we are getting an update so keep up the good work!

Puppet Master

Not this time, sorry.

Darkhound

Any chance of Ivy's contents?

Some minutes ago :)

Darkhound

upload soon?

lee

The next version is 0.0.9.3, a partial update. the next full version is 0.1.0 The change log/release notes post will stay the same post and is updated until the next full version. It's nothing new, I always did it like that in the past.

Darkhound

The intro text for this page is a bit mixed up :) It states it is for 0.1.0 and how that is the next version, but actually it seems the next version will be an 0.0.9.3 Seems like you are working at both the same time, maybe originally intended to be the same but was split into two version without updating the text? (suppose this will also mean that 0.0.9.3 and 0.1.0 will actually come rather close together in terms of release? maybe 2 weeks between?) Bit late in the day to point it out I admit ;) since it will likely roll over in a moment and only be about 0.1.0 and bug fixes for the latest 0.0.9.x but anyways.

nissebrygger

Thanks :)

Darkhound

Open the console using shift+O then type: natasha.create_topics_list() after that hit the return key then type: exit followed by Return key to close the console This will fix it directly. This is for all the talk options.

Darkhound

with this " Natasha was missing the "talk about her" option. This has been fixed. --> will be fixed with content addon 2 " do you mean only hte last option in conversation, in "chat with her" ?!, cause I'm missing whole conversation menu, when choosing "chat with her" interaction i see only, "thats all for now" which appears once u use/try all conversational options, have her on the island for a few days already and and thats all i see whenever i try to have a "chat" with her

Radoslav

Heather is fire!

Sure, will be added in future updates.

Darkhound

Any chance of a happy ending at the spa?

I have to admit that I haven't really played a lot since the last changes. Was too busy creating new stuff and testing specific scenes and events. If the advancement of strength and endurance is still that slow, I probably have to adjust it again. About the sneak and looks. it doesn't make much sense to scale it to 10, since even the 5 are almost too much distinction right now. Having it scale up to 10 would only make sense if there is a difference between 6 and 7. But I think that's not necessary and won't improve the game. What I can do is maybe make the advancements a little slower. Again in my defence, I haven't played that much. I will look into it again as well in one of the next versions.

Darkhound

To have the bar stay open an hour later shouldn't pose any problems. It will be more difficult to open it earlier. But I think one hour more is better than nothing :) About the last call - I'm pretty sure I can do that. Just needs a new render where she shows up and talks to you half an hour before closing time.

Darkhound

Could the bar open an hour earlier and stay open an hour later? Also a last call from Jennifer would be appreciated so you have a chance to ask a girl to play poker.

Puppet Master

I started the game from the beginning again, and it's day 88, and my strength is only 7 and endurance 90, also my looks have only increased once. I have done 3 endurance and strength workouts every week and am still not maxed out. I think that the advancement of stats needs to work more intuitively, like the charm and sneak stats. Also, can we do two workouts in one day if we get a massage? I think this may be too much work for little reward, but could charm, sneak and looks be a 10 point scale. These stats go up easily and makes the reading action obsolete too quickly.

Puppet Master

Is this a question? The game has already more content than most "finished" games out there. I suggest you play some more to see everything there is to explore. The app on your phone helps you to find all that you are missing.

Darkhound

its a beta? have only got sex scenes with a few girls

Teutoburger

Thank you for the comment on Lacey :) About Delizia's hair style. Unfortunately It's not possible to do what you ask. The hair is a prop and it looks just like it does. It doesn't behave like normal hair. you cannot let it down or something. All I could try is to have her use another hair style. But it's not easy to find something that looks similar in color shade, structure . Works well with her face and is longer at the back. But I can have a look for you .

Darkhound

Thanks :)

Darkhound

Hi, thanks for finding these. I corrected all the above and also all other occurrences where "lay" was wrongfully used instead of "lie".

Darkhound

I'm glad to see more Lacey content. I like the girls with large breasts, but she really revs my engine. Also, Delizia's hair being up makes her look prissy. Can we get a scene where she lets her hair down and goes wild?

Puppet Master

Have a drink with Amy or Alice, ask if you want to add a Greeen pill to drink, should be green. MC talks to Joy "pice of information," should be piece. MC doing exercises with Jennifer is told to lay down and lay back, should be lie.

Puppet Master

good work, need more girl pls :>

sero2u

lol, no, just good old 2018 :)

Darkhound

regular updates on a patreon game... what is this 2025? :) good work

Just Natasha. I want to have it ready as soon as possible, since there is still that annoying bug in 0.0.9.1 with the second Joy office meeting.

Darkhound

Hey, great news! Natasha is a great addition! Any planned content for the current girls for 0.0.9.2, or just Natasha?

RedWolf

You are welcome :)

Darkhound

YAYA!!!!!! I Love Natasha! THanks
