Brief Update on Build 0.5.16 (Update 1)
Added 2023-09-05 15:05:46 +0000 UTCHi everyone ^_^
Welcome to another weekly build update, covering what I'm planning to work on this as part of the upcoming build. The last build had some issues, but it also brought us a lot closer to the complete initial playable state for the school. This build we're going to continue on with the school content some more, probably getting the core content to the point it needs be (with the detentions and the testing content still to come a little later)
Primarily I'll be working on the school interrupt encounters, which will give the school content a bit more character/randomness, add in some more fetish content to it, and generally just make it more mechanically in-line with the rest of the game. These interrupts will obviously cover all the regular things that interrupts do, such as lactation overspill, pregnancy progression, wetting accidents, and cum/sex addiction triggers.
On top of that I want to get some more general content added to the school. These aren't in any particular order, but firstly I'm interested in a new classroom scene where the player will be able to answer a classroom question which will impact the players delinquency/reputation depending on how they do so. Secondly, I have a polled scene planned for Physical Education class where the player ends up doing sex wrestling with Baylee. Finally, I'm also looking into adding in more mini-encounters to add some more life/randomness to the school, with break-time, lunch-time, and leaving-time mini-encounters taking the priority. These mini-encounters will only be a few paragraphs long and are mostly related to flavouring the school content and keeping it more engaging.
If there's time, then I will also be working on the underwear system update, in which I'll be changing it so that it's more inline with the outfit system, having various 'underwear tags' that describe its function. When that's done, I'll also be well-placed to start adding in the underwear I've been saving up, with the collection of ABDL clothing and accessories coming first. Finally, thanks to Joywoi in the Discord community, we have a new writing submission for Mei, an Asian cat-girl who works at the Degredationist Brothel, who I'll be adding in too.
P.S. Thank you for your continued patience with me.

My primary goal of this build is;
- School Interrupt Encounters - Much like all the other time passing instances, the school too needs interrupt encounters. These are usually attached to fetish content, and are things like; milk overspill (lactation), pregnancy progression (pregnancy), cum/sex addiction, wetting (diaper/watersports), etc. Most of these will be similar to previous versions, but I see others will likely differ significantly, likely also impacting the player's school reputation in the process.
As such, my other major plans for this build are;
- School Break Time Mini-Encounters - A selection of small flavour encounters that can occur during breaktime.
- School Lunch Time Mini-Encounters - A selection of small flavour encounters that can occur during lunchtime.
- School Leaving Time Mini-Encounters - A selection of small flavour encounters that can occur as the player is leaving.
- Underwear System Update - A more minor thing to mention, but much like the update to the outfit system last year that saw the addition of 'clothing tags', underwear needs to be updated in a very similar way to make sure that it is suitable for future updates.
- ABDL Clothing & Accessories - Having built up over time, I have a decent selection of ABDL clothing and accessory artwork saved up from LilyBlax. This includes; bonnets and other headwear, bibs, diapers, and some really cute outfits. All of these will be added to the store inventory of Sylvia's Little Wardrobe.
- Classroom Encounter Answer Teachers Question - Another simple classroom encounter where the player has the opportunity to answer a question in class. Doing so will increase relationship with the teacher and give a small skill exp boost based on the lesson and decrease delinquency, responding with a joke will gain some school reputation, small relationship boosts, and delinquency, not doing anything will give nothing.
- [Polled] Baylee Phys Ed Class Sex Wrestling Encounter - In this new Phys Ed classroom encounter, the player will be put against Baylee the cheer team captain, with the class being focussed on sex wrestling. Player will be able to choose how hard they try, and will receive differing results depending on that (and Baylee's opinion of the player).
- [Submission] Mei The Deg Brothel Cat-Girl - Submitted to me kindly by Joiwoi, Mei is an Asian cat-girl the player will be able to meet when working at the Degredationist Brothel. So far there is one encounter with her, but in the future I'm hopeful we'll see more.
Low priority content that I might get around to (or at least that I'm keeping in the back of my mind) includes;
- Info Boxes - After having added in the basic options set for the info boxes and set up the exp portion of that info system for players to view, I still need to work on the quest information boxes and item gain information boxes.
- Player Scene Images Overhaul - This one has been on the back burner for a while, but down various content paths I've saved up a selection of alternate images featuring the male and or female player stand-in. My hope is to change the code to allow players to select whether they see these images or not, but also select whether they only see one gender version of the images, and also be able to select whether it only shows the appropriate image to the player's current genital situation.
- Fem/Sissy Trainer Sweet Sissy Continuation - Currently there are three major narrative scenes left on the sweet sissy Fem/Sissy Trainer path,
- Sam (ABDL Slave) - Sam is a female Asian little the player will be able to buy. She's cute, but might need some training from a perspective owner. Sam will have various sexual, ABDL, and diaper related interactions.
- School Detention - After getting given detention by one of their teachers, players will be able to attend after-school detention, which can be ran be a randomly selected teacher. Different teachers will have different punishments, with the punishment selected being randomly selected from a pool of them.
- School Testing (And Qualifications System) - One of the aims of the school is to offer the player qualifications that require them to have learned multiple related skills to gain. These qualifications will add value to the player on the slave auction ending route, and will also be used to potentially gate progression on certain jobs, as well as offer new opportunities to the player in general.
A new art poll for the month will probably be posted over the next few days, so keep an eye out for that. As for artwork, I'm getting a steady stream of it in at the moment, so along with my backlog of artwork I've been sitting on there will probably come a decent number of artwork posts on here soon.
Hope you all are excited, and happy gaming ^_^

Hi Andrew ^_^ (Sorry for the slow response - have been unwell and dealing with a water leak) That's an interesting point, but at this point, especially with the delays from the things mentioned above, I think it's best for me to get a quick build out to reset. The longer a build goes on, the slower it gets, so whilst it might sound like just another week, so it might sound like another week of wait but instead would stretch much further than individual builds. Additionally, smaller builds let me get on top of bugs sooner, and lower the stress for me. Hope that explains things a little better, and thank you for your thoughts :)

2023-09-18 10:42:19 +0000 UTCThis sounds great, though is there any chance you could also do the detentions and testing stuff for this build too? I am aware it will require us to wait longer for the update to come out, and I don't mind at all, but I think it would be great if all the main content for the school was able to be done in one lump sum instead of having these several small parts being done over several updates, if that makes any sense. It just seems like there's only like a few things left to do and then the school stuff is finally done, so I don't see any harm in waiting an extra week or two for everything to be done. Though for all I know, there's probably way more work that needs to be done here that I'm somehow completely oblivious to, or there's some other reason why it can't happen, so you know.
