Gather around, let me tell you a grand tale kiddies.
I fully intended to have the release done yesterday.
But then-- I started working on some new interface and menu elements.
Essentially, when I'm done this will allow you to replay past encounters whenever you please. These will be devoid of the story elements, for maximum pleasure.
However ...
I mentioned this in discord, but the next version of the game 0.26, will be released on Sunday, at a respectable time of the day for once ^_^. At least, that is the plan.
The focus will be improving on several aspects of the game, namely:
- Presentation, in regards to info related to each vixen.
- A rough idea of when you've reached the "end" of content for a particular girl.
- Improvements on the events system, in order to better spread out content.
- A focus on...
Features:
* Several new events/encounters featuring Ryoko.
* New Fira encounter.
* Improvements to exploration / battle system.
* A plethora of QOL fixes and improvements.
* Several Foundational systems improved, added or created. The new events and encounters can be unlocked by chatting / bonding with the vixens of Hom Factory.

I'm going to attempt to release 0.25 on Friday of this week (5/14). I say attempt, but as long as I don't get wrapped up in too much 'heavy' coding, it shouldn't be a problem.
I decided to take a couple of days off, and focus on resting for a bit. Now that I feel a bit more energized, it's time to get down to business.
Expect good things.

I've pulled an all-nighter (actually more, about 36 hours straight) working on 0.24. and various HF related things.
At the last minute (yesterday) I commissioned some poses to create a few more pieces of content. Those should be done later today (in a few hours, maybe sooner). These will allow me to add a few more scenes I had in mind, but could not do originally.
With that in mind . So, I'm going to take a few hours rest and release as soon as I get the new poses and make the r...
Recently I've been working with an artist to create new poses for the project. Eventually this will transition into animations specific to the project's needs, so now it's time to start thinking about and suggesting what kinks you would like to see!
Up above is an example of some of the poses I recently had done.
I'll be working on compiling a list of kinks myself, but learning more about what you all want is great too. Don't hesitate to drop a comment, leave a message over disc...
The vote was clear. (I waited an extra day to make sure!)
I'll keep you updated with progress over the next 3 days.
I just finished putting the final touches on how I want the kinks to work. Essentially, before you're exposed to anything that could be considered kink play, you will get an introductory event. You will then have the option to place that kink into your list of preferences, and from then on you will be open to seeing those kinks.
There won't be a limit to wha...
The battle system took a bit more time to integrate and set up than I anticipated. That, coupled with some personal issues (honestly, lately I've been dealing with depression due to a break up and handling it very, very badly XD ), means I didn't get much done yesterday or today. Fortunately I'm feeling much better than I have this entire week, but that has slowed up my development rate.
So what I would like to know is if you want 0.24 now (it includes the new...
A few people have messaged me about "blocked" posts. For the most part it's just a misunderstanding. From this point on I will make all posts available to higher tiers. It should help clear up any confusion.
I haven't been limiting posts, but rather some of them are the same files just distributed to different tiers of patrons. I thought it may be confusing to receive access to the same files twice, but it seems patrons prefer it this way.
I finished up everything related to improving the current battle system.
Here's a bit of the updates related to that, I may add a few more things today before moving on.
# 4/26
# - Put together most of the battle system. It's gun based, shoot your foes to oblivion and avoid being defeated yourself.
# - Added sound effects and damage numbers to battle.

Which element of HF do you feel should be focused on with next update?

I'm finally wrapping up development on this. I tell you, I've been working on this most of the day for the past week. I've done alot, but it always seems like so little!
Regardless, I'm confident that I can now release 0.23 on the 14th (tomorrow) -- a full day earlier than I originally intended.
During this period I'm basically just going to look for bugs, add small bits of content (events and such) here and there. For the most part, 0.23 is done at this point.
I've done quite a lot lately on the game and I'm looking to release the 0.23 version ASAP as you all well know. Here is a sample of the changelog as well as some screenshots from the game.
New interaction with NPCs. You can build affection, which provides a boost with leveling up your relationships with each character. Each day you can chat or bond with a character, while some also offer traini...

Last month really rained on my plans!
I wasn't able to hit my content creation goals as much as I wanted, but I did manage to make the game more stable and learn many things that will assist in making the game better in the long run.
That being said, I plan to release 0.23 ASAP, truthfully because I'm not fully satisfied with the amount of content in this current...
2021-04-01 06:09:10 +0000 UTC View PostSome of you may be wondering where the latest release is. On Sunday it took me a lot longer to mess around with Ren'py than I intended and solve a few of the problems I encountered. (If you were in the discord channel you might have seen me rant a bit about how Ren'py was slowing down development lol sorry).
Yesterday I managed to do just about everything else I wanted to with the exception of 2 things but it pretty much took all day. I'll finish those up today and try to release...
HF has a core number of planned characters. The rest will differ based on game development and input. Depicted here are characters you will eventually meet as you learn more about the world of Hom Factory.
I won't spoil too much, but each character has a pivotal role to play in You's journey.

Hello patrons.
I just wanted to address why the next version is taking longer than I planned.
A few days ago I started putting together "original" art for the game. That is , replacing some of the wall papers I used and so on. What I found is that there are many maps out there for interiors and exteriors -- and that many games are already using the pre-sets.
I thought it would be a good idea for me to make my own maps, and while there aren't many places I need to do, it...
2021-03-24 16:58:17 +0000 UTC View PostHi folks!
Just wanted to drop you awesome patrons a line.
The next update of HF *0.22* will be released on 3/21 - 3/22 if all goes to plan.
After that, you'll get a second release on 4/1 *0.23*. This will put the patron page ahead by 1.5-2 versions for the most part and once I can comfortably write code that will maintain save data you can expect more frequent monthly updates as well.

I have decided to release the latest version today before bedtime. You can skip to the bottom for the download link. This month (and the coming early months of development) will be irregular in the sense that I will do as many updates as possible to get the game up to a sufficient level of development.
With that in mind, I'll be releasing the public version now. The Patron exclusive version will be released within 1-2 days time (3/9 or 3/10), + additional lewd content...
Note that this update is the same as the public build. For that reason you can download it here.
This update features:
1.0.6 2021-02-18 10:56:12 +0000 UTC View Post
This is progressing much sooner than I anticipated.
In fact, I hope to have a new demo with additional content with additional content -- just for patrons!
The new content will expand upon your early encounter with Ryoko. Giving you more options and more eye candy.
Here's a preview:
I can't wait to show you the rest of the characters.
