March Update ...

Added 2022-03-24 09:13:09 +0000 UTC

So I've been hard at work on Version 0.4.2 but I'm also back to real life - meaning my bank account took a huge hit while I went all out on getting the game out during Jan/Feb and now I'm back to juggling working on this in the evenings/weekends and trying to revive my flagging Amazon sales!

Here's where I'm up to on 0.4.2:

Fixed a bunch of bugs (including the weird thing where it wouldn't let you click on the links in Jennifer's apartment during the phone mission).

Added in some basic quality of stuff that players requested in feedback - like a full screen on/off toggle in the settings menu.

Added three new full outfits to wear - which are scattered around the various shops.

Added a fun new way to make money! (Hint: it has something to do with the sketchy alley)

I'm currently hard at work on a much more fun dynamic "sex scene" mechanic - based on the super helpful poll, I've decided to scrap the rhythm mini game for sex stuff and just make it way more sex focussed, lol. After all, this is supposed to be a lewdgame, right?! It's still got a little ways to go, but the idea is that you could repeatedly revisit each sex scene (be that in the gloryhole, the sketchy alley (?), with Amy, Dylan, a random dude at the nightclub) and depending on what experience you've gathered already in game and what you chose to do it would give you different descriptions and content. That way, instead of having to write say 4-5 different full cut scenes with Amy, she would just respond and do different things depending on a) what you were wearing, b) what you did to her and c) whether you'd hooked up before. It should make the game a lot more fun for repeat play throughs I'm hoping!

I've also added a couple more locations and I'm putting in another way to make some cash too.

Oh, and I still need to add in a ton more dynamic stuff around campus - that's the other thing I want done by this update so that the game doesn't feel so empty around the main storyline. So: dreams, masturbatory fantasies, the mean girls in class, ability to occasionally randomly bump into and have conversations with Kevin/Amy/Heather/Jennifer around campus ...

I've got a really clear plan of what I want to do, and I'm working through it all in a pretty methodical way (for me!), checking things off one by one on my Trello board.

And obviously I was hoping to get all of the above done and dusted before the month is out but yeah, it's looking like a few more weeks work at the very least, based on my current progress. If this was my only focus (and tbh I wish it was!) then things would speed up considerably. But right now, juggling this and my bread and butter ebook stuff means that - as you've probably guessed - there'll be no new updated game to play before the month is out.

I just wanted to say thanks so much for your continued support and I'm planning to drop a link to a private "test build" here a week or two before the public version goes live again. But like I said, even that's still looking like a few weeks away.

So for now, here's a few screenshots of some of the new stuff:
