What should "unavailable" options look like?
Added 2020-06-02 07:16:47 +0000 UTCIt should come as no surprise to people who have been following this game that Jean will not launch with all of her sexual activities available. When I first release a girl, I typically only have her standing sprite finished, so sex acts that use different poses tend to come in second and third releases for that character. Sorry about that, but doing otherwise would mean I couldn't get anything out for another 3+ months of putting art and animations together.
I wanted to ask you guys though, how do you prefer that I make these limitations clear in the game? In previous versions, if a character like Laura was not yet able to do a titjob, or whatever, I would leave the option listed in the sex menu, but if you asked she would say something like "I don't want to do that [not available]." So that's one option here.
There are two other options I've considered though. The first would be to just not have that option be available. If she can't do something, you wouldn't see it on the list. The reason I didn't go this route initially is because I don't like limiting what the player can ask for by what the girl is willing to agree to. I mean you know that a blowjob is a thing that exists, why couldn't you ask for it? It would at least remove the temptation though, right? :D
The third option would be to leave the activity listed, but have it greyed out (no pun intended), so that you can't click on it. This would at least make clear that it will eventually be an option, but not give false hope that she'd agree to it.
So those are the options, let me know which appeals to you, and feel free to comment on why. Try to keep more general comments to the other recent Update post though, just to keep things organized.
