Rogue-Like Update 01-14-2025 (and poll)

Just checking in. I'm hard at work on the upcoming version, as well as a few tweaks that I'll probably put out in a final build of 1.6. It's time for the poll to see who gets a new 69 pose. For those not keeping track, Betsy and Doreen got theirs, then Rogue won the first poll and got hers in version 1.6, so who'll be getting one in 1.61? Everyone will get one eventually, so this is just a matter of figuring out the order. I'll also be doing a poll later for adding in a story event.

Comments

Yeah, I've thought of doing this, but haven't really gotten around to it. Might be something fun to work on from time to time.

Oni

Small detail suggestion (or maybe large, honestly don't know the work needed). In public areas like the pool, mall, and danger room, add silhouettes similar to the ones in the classroom to the background. It just feels very empty to be considered a public place. Also when you do public scenes the dialog says more and more people start to watch, so you could probably add a few silhouettes every time this message appears until "quite the audience" is watching. Some could have their arms up when "the crowd cheers", maybe throw in a few camera flashes, etc. Would be a cool detail to see in the future but not really an issue.

ONI DROP MAGIK/ILLYANA IN HER BATTLE OUTFIT WITH THE THINGS ON THE SIDES OF HER HEAD, AND A TRANSFORMATION THAT LOOKS LIKE A SUCCUBUS AND MY SOUL IS YOURS

Oomiii

Seriously dude dropped like 5 versions over Christmas. They're allowed a breather

Adam Rowlingson

Yeah, sorry, when I'm deep in the weeds I just can't get myself to respond quite as often. It's a bad habit. I am alive, I have a lot of the artwork done for 1.61, and I'm working on some optimization that will hopefully speed things up quite a bit without breaking too much.

Oni

I could look into making her top available like that, for the most part only a few jackets in the game work that way, because it both complicates all the sprite coding a bit, and also I sometimes need to add specific bra artwork to cover that variation. Also, girls are already reluctant to lick up from an ass, it requires relatively high inhibition stat, otherwise the text will default to them using their hands instead for that part.

Oni

It generally means two girls are hooking up in there.

Oni

Oh, don't worry. Oni usually works on updates in complete silence before stealth dropping a new version every 2-3 months. Development cycle has been that way for years.

CheeseDrake

Oni are you alive?

Mr tapok

I notice that there's graphics for Kitty wearing her pink top open, but no option to ask her to wear it like that as part of an outfit. It would be cool to have it as an option. Another minor feature that might be cool would be for (most of?) the girls to be more reluctant to eat cum from certain places, in particular their ass or another girl's ass. It would could be another minor place to add some corruption/resistance. I don't think either of these would take significant art or major coding. Hopefully they catch your interest, but either way I'm a big fan of the game.

Omelet

Does anyone know what the β€œshifting around and then you hear muffled giggles in the background ” text means ? I got it while talking to storm and don’t know what it means

king.Ledesma

Have to say your my favorite creator

gordymelendez18

So, can you at least give a hint what the story poll will be about? And when will it be?

Kirindel Ront

when's that juicy update hm hm hm?

Dan

Completely unrelated (and highly unlikely), Would there be a possibility to add a Futa option to the Sex Changer in McCoy's Lab?

KiddKame

ooooohhhh. i hadn't thought of that. thank you

Justsomenerd22

Did you find anything searching the room with Storm in the party? Kitty can only help you find Kitty stuff.

Oni

i think i found a bug. i cant get professer x to leave storm alone. i already got the photos and had no problem with other girls even emma. do i somehow need to get that locked one. do i use kitty again. or is it just broken?

Justsomenerd22

Oni, this is unrelated, but is there a way to have Ms.Frost walk around naked like the other girls?

Ezio

Building the animation sequences can take a lot of time, but by this point I have some basic "concepts" to work with for those (and a lot more experience in the systems so it takes less trial and error to hit the notes I want), and putting them together takes at most about 1/4 as long as building out all the clothing items for that pose. It would be a time savings, but not a huge one. I would say that of all the time I spend on the game, it would be like 40% building art assets in Photoshop, 40% "written stuff," such as coding sequences and writing dialogue and other stuff that happens in the script editor, and animating things would be maybe 20%, give or take (more when I was just getting started on such things). And so yeah, the more art stayed the same, the less work would need to go into it, I would definitely save time on expressions, at the very least, but the more I would want to differentiate between the two, the more work that would be involved.

Oni

That makes sense. To my mind the notion of just being able to copy the animations and programming end with minor changes would reduce development burden, but I see why the art burden takes up the majority of the dev time. I'd envisioned it as more of adding a "new hair option" since the already existing hair and clothes would still fit, but I know almost nothing about back-end development of the project and couldn't say.

Ben

She lost hopefully she wins the next one

stinging shadow

To the Rogue question, no. While I do still have the old art files around, they aren't actually included in the newest builds, and including both sets would complicate things, especially if I added new visual options and didn't update the original version. As for Wanda, if she gets piercings, it does cause them to stick out permanently, but otherwise this isn't currently an option (although you can always just keep her entertained).

Oni

Maybe, we'll see. If they don't, it'll at least give an indication what the community is thinking.

Oni

Not *zero* chance, but also it's not currently on the drawing boards. It might be a nice idea for her to get a less conservative swimsuit eventually though.

Oni

Hey Oni, is there any possibility of being able to toggle between Rogues new and old BJ animations. And possibly to change Wandas nipples from innies to outies permanently?

Pez

I have a funny feeling that Future Character 69 Poll Results are just going to be following the character release order.

KiddKame

These are A LOT of votes! Any plans to collab with other creators to help with the project? Just curious. I can understand this being a passion project, but even some of the best movies need a team.

d.sen.d

Oni unrelated, and yes I do feel guilty asking for more when there’s a lot of work done. But any chance we could get a micro Bikini for Squirrel Girl?

rpglaster

Thank you Oni!

Josh

Sucks Laura didn't win.

stinging shadow

i finally got one. now on to the other two. thanks for the tip

Justsomenerd22

You need to get several BJs from the girls that have it, and at least some pussy licking with her, then during such an event she might propose it. After that, you can just access it as a normal view shift option where it would make sense to do so.

Oni

I honestly forget whether I have or not. :D I don't think they are in at the moment, but I can work on that. I don't think it's too hard, I just need to line everything up properly.

Oni

I will neither confirm nor deny that I've been considering a very different, but not entirely unrelated scenario. I'll just say that if it did happen, it wouldn't just be a lazy asset flip. It would be weirder. I would also say that "just giving her new hair and clothes" is basically like 80% of a character, visually. The underlying body is more creatively challenging, but the stuff on top of it tends to take up the most time, since it needs layers, up and down bits, to apply to every version of the character model. So if I *just* changed her lines and kept all the visuals the same, that would be a manageable 1-2 patch project. but if I'm going to have different outfits for her, I might as well build an entirely different model. . . just a thought.

Oni

Yeah, I really do need some better methods for organizing characters, so that it isn't just a confusing mess. I've already put in a thing that should allow you to pause new characters being added, and there's the method with Xavier to boot some girls out of rotation temporarily, but I'll probably need to add a more casual way to say "don't highlight these girls for now, because I'm more focused on these over here."

Oni

She didn't win the poll, so she'll get her chance in like. . . six-nine months or so?

Oni

I mean, that seems to be the way people are voting, at least so far. :D Yeah, I could just do that anyway, but I figured I'd leave it up to the people. Why not. They are actually in their release order in the poll above, top to bottom. I keep track of this because it's how I organize certain things ingame. :D

Oni

how do i get this. i still have yet to see it as an option.

Justsomenerd22

Is there any plans in the 69 pose to add ass slapping or the dildo graphics or toggle the butt plug in/out i don't know if you have addressed this yet.

Repent

It occurred to me while playing the new build that you could probably double-dip on content pretty easily, just would require a retcon. While I do enjoy unhinged Jean Grey in this, I was thinking that she really acted more like Madelyne Pryor than Jean. While this was nothing new, it did make me realize that you could add in Madelyne to take over the unhinged Jean Grey character and then put in Jean as the "good twin" with minimal dev-burden for new art; effectively adding a fully-featued new girl in a single build, only needing to write her dialogue and maybe make a 'good girl' hairstyle and outfit. Plus adds the potential for some twincest hookups. Just a thought.

Ben

found a random bug, when waited in rogue's room with betsy when she wasn't there, and this popped up after scene change when rogue showed up, hit ignore and didn't crash the game.

Have the second the commentary on 69 being a fun but, currently, pointless pose. The girl gets *less* lust gain from it than if you just eat her out. So when they eventually start initiating 69, it's effectively making it much harder to satisfy them without the player character cumming first.

Ricky Williams

Still can't believe how far this game has come. I remember back when there was only just rogue, now there is like 10 girls and it only gets harder to juggle them all. Hope another ten girls get added and another ten.

Reaginicwolf

Happy to see Kitty winning, she's been my favorite X-Men character for the longest time, till I read the entire phoenix saga.

hmasterx

Still waiting for Illyana (Magik)

WaNNaPAN

Any update for sex with wanda

blyz

I would have liked, there be more votes for Emma

SPEEDJO WRLD

How about adding that bonus pose the way the ladies ware added to the game? Rogue -> Kitty -> Emma -> Laura etc. Not sure who was past Laura as Laura for the win ;)

d00m3sT0s

No love for mama storm and her big milkies??? 😒

Yellowcake Uranium

That's the great thing about milfs. I keep getting older, and they keep staying the same age. :D

Oni

I have thought about taking another look at the "lust balancing" of various actions. As for using both hands (and girls doing more complex interactions), I guess it comes down to complexity. I track four "actions" during sex, the "main one," which is typically attached to the primary visuals, your single "offhand" action, then one action that the main girl could do other than that main action, then an action that a second girl could do (which were a bit simpler). If I want to add more actions, then I need to add more variables, then those variables would need to be checked each cycle to see how they would add dialogue and lust gain, and most complicatedly, I would need to make sure things were "deconflicted," so that nobody is using body parts that are already "checked out" by some other activity. Also every sprite in the game has to check against these things for displaying those little hands and such. I'll keep it on the back burner for now, thinking of the best way to add these things without overloading it, but let's just say it's complicated.

Oni

I give them permission to use any of my designs for costumes. :D

Oni

Heh, more, yeah. :D

Oni

I've been playing this game for so long that my porn tastes have shifted from teens to MILFs.

Pleh fluh COUGH furball

The Holly King

Kitty is my fave, but I’d be happy if any of these girls were chosen. You’ve done a fantastic job with these specific scenes so far.

rpglaster

Yo, where are my Laura fellas at? Come on, vote!

Link

Kitty. She was the second girl added after rogue, so let her be the next to get the 69 position. Especially since she's the second girl players will likely encounter. On similar note: If possible, think you could make secondary actions like linking and touching more effective at filling up the girls orgasm/arousal bars during 69's. At the moment they feel kind of weak, compared to the effectiveness of the girl's action. Also, our guy has two hands, it would be great if he could use one hand on the main girl and use the other to do things like fingering and rubbing the second girl during threesomes in the future.

Emma is love, Emma is life

Azura

Soo its still need more update for magik to release

adityabudi

So how long until the game gets bought for DLC to Marvel Rivals? ;)

Track_Tension

Well, like I said, I'll probably get a 1.6i out, I will just need to make sure that it doesn't contain any half-finished chunks from what I'm working on for next version (which would cause errors).

Oni

Soo the latest update its final ?

adityabudi

Emma for the win
