Dev blog : Big announcement and more

Hello there !
  Well, how to begin ?
Probably with the same rant I always have. I know I've been pretty slow lately, and not much content came out. Sorry about that. I try to balance my time between work, IRL stuff, and the nsfw part, but it's hard. And even when I'm in a nsfw mood, that doesn't mean I'm motivated to work, sometimes I'm just horny and want to play a nice nsfw game. And then I find very few that suit my tastes, and remember why I started this project x) And yeah, summer is a pretty tough season, I have a ton of events and things to do, and also it's hard to keep a horny mood when it's 40C in your room.
  Anyway, let's dive into this dev blog, with infos about the next version and also a big announcement. Actually, let's begin with that announcement, so if you don't feel like going through the whole post, at least you'll have the most important information.

It's time to go full-time :
Well, like I said, my work is taking me some time, and also draining a good part of my energy. I currently work part-time, two days a week, and the rest of my income is thanks to you guys. But still, I have too little time and energy to this project. And also I'm growing really tired of my job. So it's time. Time to leave.

  Time to be a full time artist.

  I feel like I can make it, with your support. For now, just the income from Subscribestar and Patreon won't be enough, but with commissions, I think I could make it. We'll see how it goes, but it's time to shake things a bit, else I have the feeling I won't be able to make some real progress.
I'll leave my work by the end of October, so it's not completly sudden, but it'll be there really soon. And I'm gonna work hard until this date to have a strong start, and keep up the rythm after that !

  Needless to say, I'm gonna need your support more than ever ! Being financial, of course, or just moral, by sharing and liking my stuff, and giving me feedback.
But I know I can count on you for that ! :D

Plans for 0.09 (and after too) :
  Now that this announcement has been made, let's look at what is planned for the next version of BoOBS !
Lately, I've been inspired and decided to add a bit of content for what I originally planned for 0.09, but it'll tie everything nicely. Originally, I just wanted to remake the scenes with the mobs, as well as the masturbation pic for Illonia's new model. As you've seen, I'm having a ton of fun with short animations lately (all thanks to the new PC that makes it much more manageable), so I'll keep up in that theme.

Dildos hunt :
  So for the masturbation, only doing pics would be boring, short anims would be much better. And having Illonia just using her fingers won't do it, it'll be much funnier with dildos (that, and her arms can't reach her nipples if I make her boobs grow too much ^^').

  Also, I still was figuring a way to add the winner of the subscriber's poll to the game, the faction allegiances, at least give it some role in a update now, and expand the mechanic later one. So here was the idea : You'll get a new quest, requiring you to get a dildo, cause Illonia wants one to masturbate to her heart's content. So you'll get three options to get one :
-Go see Ursula. After completing a task, she'll give you one.
-Find a special goblin, he'll give you a task too, and give another dildo as a reward.
-Find a special bandit, and same here, small quest, and you'll get a dildo.

All three dildos will be different, and depending of which one you have equipped, it'll be the one to appear in the small anims of the masturabtion skill. And of course, you'll be able to help all three characters, and get all three dildos, and switch from one to another whenever you like. As for the animations, they'll be totally different anim depending of transformations active on Illonia (like for the teasing animations), and will have variations showing which dildo is used.

Faction allegiance :
As I said, the faction allegiance mechanic won the subscribers poll, so it's gonna start featuring in this update. Basically, the idea is that by doing some quest or actions, some factions or groups will like you more, while other will hate you. Or you could decide what happens when two group are in conflict, who wins, and who get to serve. And plenty of fun stuff like that.
For this update, it'll be focused on two well-known groups : the goblins and the bandits.
   Like I said before, you'll be able to find one of each group representant, talk to them, and if you execute their task, they'll give you a reward : a big ass dildo.
But what's that mysterious task ? Well, easy, the goblin will ask you to fuck some of his gobbos friends, and kill some bandits. Exact opposite for the bandit guy, kill gobbos, fuck bandits. Accomplishing the task for one camp will raise your allegiance with them, while lowering the enemy's allegiance. So, if you help both side, not much will change on that front.

  Well, of course, you could also decide not to play along with one side, muder a few of their friends, and "convice" them to give you what you want anyway (cause Illonia can never have too many dildos). In that case, of course, your allegiance might drop quite a bit with the side you threatened. Their rivals, though, will absolutly love you for that. Also, take into account that only some events will influence the allegiance. You can kill a goblin without fearing to loose some allegiance point with them (cause he won't be there to snitch you, after all).

  Okay, this all nice and good, but what does this alleagiance is gonna do in the end ? Well, later, it'll influence some events, or how some groups treat you. But it'll already have a use in this update. If you end up with minimal allegiance for a group (helped their rivals + aggressed them), the mobs of that group will become more dangerous (better stats in combats, and maybe new offesive skills). On the other hand, if you have max allegiance (helped them, and aggressed their rivals), the mobs of that group will get less dangerous, but hornier, and start using some groping attacks (smacking illonia's ass or breast, touching lothar's cock for the female bandit...)

New characters :
  So, like I said before, I got inspired this week, and decided to add new characters to the game. As you can probably guess, there'll be a goblin character, and a bandit one, for all the part I was talking before. Actually, it'll be two duo of characters. They won't have a scene in 0.09 (cause it's already gonna be a big update, it'll delay it too much), but I'll probably give them more content in 0.10, as well as a boss fight at some point (don't know when exactly). It'll be interesting to finally fight to foes at once.

  So, what are those chaarcter's design be ? Well, I have the big lines, but a lot of points are gonna be decided by polls (for 5$ and more supporters), but here's the ideas :
-A goblin, and his best friend
-And bandit chief, and his favorite slut
In the upcoming days, I'll make polls to decide more about those character's designs, so get ready for polls !

  Another character I want to add, maybe not in this update but later, is gonna be another merchant, selling you some short erotic novels based around some of the pinups pics I do. I have commissioned a writer to write a few of those ,and I really like the result. And also I find stories more engaging if there's a pic or two to have a good view of what's happening !
Once again, this character's design will be up to polls.

Other 0.09 news :

We've went through the biggest features of the next update, but there's still a few things to talk about.

- New maps : These new characters will be on ne maps, on the north of the forest. I'll make a few new pretty big maps, to expand the global map. More places to discover !

-Updated mobs scene : Well, as I said previously, I wanted to make scenes featuring Illonia's new body for the mobs scenes, being defeat or transformation. It's still planned. And it'll be new scenes, not just changing the model from the original scene.

-The usual load of bugfixes, and new art to unlock, as well as small other things here and there. I knew a few people had bugs in 0.08, so I'll be really vigilant for this one. If you find a bug, pleasure, report it to me !

Well, I think that should cover pretty much everything I wanted to talk about. Sorry for the size of the post, I had a lot to share. But yeah, in resume, I'm gonna go full time nsfw artist in two month, and there's plenty of new things coming in 0.09.

Thanks infinitely for your support and patience. I hope you're liking the ideas, and that you'll enjoy what's about to come ! In the meantime, stay lewd !
