The Allure of Wanton Cove Progress Report 10/16/18 And Inheritance related news!

Been a really fun day.  Didn't get half as much done on Wanton Cove as I had hoped, but got a lot done in other areas.

So lets start with Wanton Cove this evening:  

-I finished writing up the alternate entry for the Morichi mansion today.  I still need to create a bit of code for it and drop it in the game.  This will allow characters who have been thrown out of the mansion to find their way inside.
-Mapped out some content for the game, just need to wr...

The Allure of Wanton Cove Progress Report 10/15/18

Going to trade in my "Writer's Choice" votes and add them to my Wanton Cove votes and work on that this week.   

What did I get up to today:

-Spent some time working through bug reports.  One related to Wanton Cove, the rest related to Inheritance.  Most of it was small stuff.

-Wrote about half of the secondary entry into the Morichi Home (After you have been kicked out for being an abomination.) 

-Also spent a little time ...

Inheritance A21TEST1

Had a lot of other stuff going on over the weekend, so I'm just now getting around to releasing the TEST build of Inheritance.

There are several things going on in this build of note.  All of the new scenes you can find through the changelog below.  More importantly though is that you no longer have to summon the girls to a location for their events to appear!  Oh, and I think Greyelf found the billiards bug at long last!

What should I work on this week?

Getting our poll up a little late this weekend.  Sorry about that.

As we finish up this week's work, we're now starting to turn our attention to the week ahead.

Those of you who have been with us for a while know what to do already,  but I'll take a moment to explain things for the rest of you.  

What we do each week is we take a vote on what I will be focusing the bulk of my attention on the following week...

Last Stand of Ra: Teaser Build

Not really "Playable" yet as it's basically the first part of the intro  and only includes a single branching point.  Even so, I wanted to post  this for any of you who are interested in giving it a play.  I'd love to  hear everyone's thoughts

Additionally:  If anyone has ideas for  a better name for the game, I'm all ears.  The current title is  tentative.  It works for the game, but I'm not completely sold on it  yet.

Anyway, ...

The Allure of Wanton Cove 1.12 Public Build

"The Allure of Wanton Cove is a dark tale of horror set within the Cthulhu Mythos created by the renowned author H.P. Lovecraft.


You take on the part of a washed up former detective who could never let go of the last terrible case he worked.  Content to live the rest of his life at the bottom of a bottle, his former partner comes knocking, begging for his help.  Help that he is loath to give until offered a tantalizing clue that could finally unravel the case that p...

The Puppetmaster Cover Image

It was suggested recently that I commission a title image for The Puppetmaster.  Since I had a few minor fixes since the previous build, I thought "Why not!  Give us an excuse to share it with people who might not have played it before!"  As such, I'll be adding the image to the game and releasing a new build some time in the coming weeks.

This image was commissioned by the same artist we've had do our wallpapers in the past.  

Hope that you all enjoy the image!<...

Inheritance Progress Report 10/10/18

Was a good day without being great.  

Spent a good part of the day working on the new Sponsored scene.  Write a little under 3k words of content and the scene is currently about 2/3 done I think.  I spent a lot of time trying to figure out what exactly I wanted to do for the scene, I had a rough outline, but it took me quite a while to settle on the specifics.  Our generous Sponsor likes what's done so far though and gave me the green light to finish up the scene.  :D<...

Inheritance Progress Report 10/9/18

Big changes.  

For a long time now, I've been saying we're going to get movement into the game so the girls will go about their business on their own.  However there's always something else that's proven to be a higher priority, or coders end up going missing for weeks at a time.  After someone asking why scenes are so hard to fi...

Inheritance: Goals for the week.

Over the weekend I spent a lot of time thinking about what I wanted to accomplish this week.  Ultimately, I decided that my first priority is going to be making a fairly significant mechanical change to the game.  Right now, girls need to be present in a room for events related to them to trigger.  But since the girls aren't yet moving about the mansion as intended, that means people need to summon the girls to a new room every time that a scene is going to appear.  I'm going...

What should I work on this coming week?

This week was spent doing a lot of ground work for a small game I've started work on named Last Stand of Ra.  A lot of the early code is in place and I released a demo to tester level Patrons a couple of days ago.

As we finish up this week's work, we're now starting to turn our attention to the week ahead.

Those of you who have been with us for a while know what to do already,  but I'll take a moment to explain things for the rest of you.

Last Stand of Ra Progress Report 10/4/18

Today wasn't as productive as I had hoped it would be.  I got a bit of writing done, but a lot of my time went into bug reports related to other projects.  

Even so, I managed to throw together a test build of the new project tentatively named "Last Stand of Ra."  

I'll actually be releasing an early build to tester level patrons in just a little bit with the intent to ease it down to other pledge levels over the next week or two.  The build will be released as a con...

Side Project Progress Report 10/03/18

Been an interesting couple of days.  

Monday I got some writing done for the new project I pitched past you guys recently.  Not a lot there yet, but it's coming along.  

Yesterday I spent a little time working on some bug reports, then I sat down to work on the new project again.  Hit some writer's block and eventually ended up working on some hobbies for much of the day.  

Today was a workhorse of a day.  Started out my day with about six hours of res...

The Allure of Wanton Cove WIP Art

Got a quick piece of art I just received.  Thought you'd all enjoy seeing a bit of art since I haven't had a lot to share recently.

This is a piece for Azumi, related to the latest round of sex scenes for her.  Enjoy!

The Allure of Wanton Cove 1.12 TEST Build

Was a long week, and on the surface I don't have a lot to show for it.  That said, what IS new is fairly substantial in size.  The Tentacled thing included a big chunk of new content in the form of a new ending, and there's a new White Goo scene (Actually three fairly substantial ones that can play out several ways between them) in the ruins as well.  

Enjoy the new build!

Changelog 1.12

-Added a new ending to the game.  This one involves the Ten...

Weekly poll, . . . or not.

Got a bit distracted over the weekend and forgot to put up the weekly poll to determine what I would be working on.  That said, I had planned to trade in my "Writer's Choice" votes in order to work on a side project.

I'll be gearing up to work on the project I pitched past everyone recently this week.  Polls will begin as usual again late this week.

General Progress Report 9/27/18

Since this is a Wanton Cove week, I'll start with that, then move to the rest of it.

Wanton Cove:  Wrote a new White Goo scene for the Ruins today.  Was really happy with the end result and I'm hoping to put together a second one tomorrow for the next release.

Inheritance:  Thanks primarily to our Wiki guy, we've got over 30,000 lines of code related to the paper doll content ready to go.  Now the ball's back in our coder's court.  I'll report more on this when I...

Silent but not idle!

Didn't send out a message the last couple of days, so I figured I should resolve that.

Monday was a big day.  Ended up adding a little bit of written content between new Cheat menu shortcuts and several improvements around the game.  Managed a solid 7 hours work time during the day, then squeezed in a couple more in the evening.  Much of the work was back end stuff that will hopefully help improve the game experience.

Tuseday:  Started writing a new ending for the ga...

Inheritance A20TEST5

Got a new TEST build for all of you fine people!

This should fix:
-The broken Ballroom
-The inability to actually beat Anna senseless after strapping her into the St Andrew's Cross.
-Random weirdness with releasing her from said Cross.
-Broken laundry scene should be working now.
-About a dozen other less significant things that I can't remember off the top of my head.

NOTE:  The scene to meet Gaia is a little hard to find, you will want the following:
