Version 0.0.8 alpha - development news (updated 17/02/2018)

Thank you very much for the feedback. I put two votes out so far for 0.0.9. Phone functionality upgrades was part of it. It didn't get a lot of votes so far. I have to think about something to replace the red dot that can work. Also something that avoids missing dates. This is hard to do because I don't know in advance how long an action you do will take. But I think even if it only works in 80% or 90% of the cases it's better than having nothing. Display of love and lust has been implemented since some time. All it needs is a quest to activate level 2 sub dermal monitoring for the girls. I will try to add more info on triggering some events. I already started with it in 0.0.8.

Darkhound

Yes that works for the images. I've done it before.

Darkhound

Yeah well, bascially I could surely do that. But everything I add will move the release date further into the future. To do that I would have to add some option for the guy to have a drink "alone", so that he can chat with jennifer. I'm still not 100% happy with the development cycle as it is. I would like to have more frequent smaller updates like with the bug fixes. Something like a small update without breaking saves and without the need to upload the complete game. I could try it with the Jennifer chat/drink sequence after the main 0.0.8alpha.

Darkhound

Any possibility of some sort of little scene with Jennifer? One of the unexpected bonuses in 007 was that, along with the Amy drinks scene we got some new renders of Jennifer. And she looks very sexy. It would sure be great to see a little more of her. Maybe just a chat if you happen to be alone at the bar with her?

I added some, but not everything will be available in 0.0.8alpha

Darkhound

Will the possibility of tips/hints on events in the phone of the main character be added?

I try my best. It was a best guess date based on what I know today. It might change in one or the other direction.

Darkhound

It's nothing that bad. It will increase the lust, nothing you cannot do with patience as well. It won't turn them into sex dolls or anything. The other "drug" will increase the positive effect of affection (e.g. it will ad 7 affection instead of only 4). So it's nothing game changing.

Darkhound

Many thanks for the nice comment :)

Darkhound

That would totally work - present it as a 'fun' drug the player has acquired that can be offered to the girls to spice up their evening. An Affection test to see if they want it and then an Affection increase for having it provided to them? "A little something to spice up my evening? I'd love one!"

Bill Sherman

Agree with the spiking being grey area. But if the girls on the other hand themselves asked to have the drink spiced up and did so knowningly (based on the fact that they double as doctors and hands the pills out and now wanting to try the effect out ex. due to high affection, lust etc) would a different thing and in tune with the game so far, would be consent and spicing things up. win - win :)

Soo, 20-ish of February release? Cool! Fingers crossed for the 18th, a little earlier so we'll have some more time for Alice during the weekend : )

Whitesnake

Haha, yep :)

Darkhound

Wow... no save game break... that is great... and: no "who the fuck is alice?"... "who f... alice? me!"

Perry

I don't like the idea of spiking the girls' drinks in the bar. Everything else is about enticing them to climb into bed with you or do other things of their own free will and consent. But, those actions have you actively drugging them and that's rape territory. Your thoughts on this Darkhound?

Bill Sherman

You cannot increase looks right now. It's alos not really needed in the current version. it only has minor impacts. Concerning endurance, read the development news.

Darkhound

darkhound please answer.... how can i increase looks? and my endurance stuck in 50 eventhough im training endurance everyday... im already in day 29 still my stats are 3 charm 3hacking 50endurance 2strength 1looks...

Hi, did you install bug fix3? That should fix it. In case you did or think you did, can provide a save game for me to have a look.

Darkhound

I've got a bug that when ever a new girl arrives, I can't go to my room or reception without that event being triggered EVERYTIME

Hi, thanks for the post. Basically I agree with you. It would be nice. The problem with that is the number of necessary renders and the complexity of the renders. Let's take e.g. showing breasts. It probably will not work for all outfits or I need specific morphs, deformers and poses for each girl and outfit. Even if it takes only between half an hour and one hour per render, it will total to about let's say 50 hours for 14*6=84 renders. Let's assume I can spend on avg. 2 to3 hours per day on the game, which is insane already, since I have a wife and a full time job, it would mean about 20 days just for that.

Darkhound

Love the functionality updates. A few things I would love to see in future updates: Ability to invite a girl to a location at a certain time. It would make triggering certain events that heavily rely on luck more convenient. For example the Amy pool play event when she has to be alone. Alarm notification on your phone. The little red dot on your phone when you have messages is hard to see and I've often missed it. I've also missed scheduled events because I didn't check the time every second. Pop up notifications for those things would be appreciated. Show love and lust of the girls in the smart watch. I don't know if I missed something but there seems to be space for exactly 2 more bars below Affection that could be used for that. It would also be nice to have more specific information on how to trigger certain events. For example there is no information on how to trigger the boob compare event. The condition is so arbitrary and random that I would never be able to get it if I hadn't looked it up in a forum. Other than that you're doing a terrific job with the game. Can't wait for what the future holds because the base functionality of the game holds so much potential.

Viv

Wow - it looks like you already have a great start on the next release. Thank you for your amazing work. This is by far my favorite game in development!

Steve Pran

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. What is listed in the post is already finished or in development right now. A lot more will be added until 0.0.8alpha is ready for a release.

Darkhound

I think it is more important to have more content for the existing girls. Right now only 5 of the 14 have an amount of content worth talking about.

Darkhound

I think you misunderstood the intention of this post. It will be changed and stuff will be added as the development of 0.0.8alpha progresses. I has just been two days since the release of the last version. So it is normal that there is not much for 0.0.8alpha right now. The post shows the current progress and not the content at the release date which will be some weeks in the future.

Darkhound

but what about the impotent things like content with the girls

igor

i relay loved your game but i see that in 0.8 you have alot of fiatures to add

igor

I don't suppose you have any plans to add more girls? I'd really like to have some more options for women of color... I'd really, REALLY love to see Mikaela or Natasha from your busty escorts series. I think they would be a big improvement!

Ziff

Thanks for the update, a cooldown meter or icon is very welcome, so you can know which girl you can approach. It would be cool if there will be more options in the future, other than kissing and hugging. When the affinity/lust is high enough you can unlock more naughty options, like showing breasts, handjob and so one (maybe limited to one for each day). Alice would be a nice test subject for that : )

Whitesnake

I hope to be able to add some more improvements to make the game more fun in the first days

Darkhound

These are some welcome news! Not breaking the savegame is certainly nice and having 50 endurance for the start also :)
