Inheritance Progress Report

Got to work on Inheritance today.  Six hours of work and I'm starting to wrap things up for the moment (Might go write another chapter or two over on chyoa.com if I feel the urge to write later.)

I did a bit of writing earlier today, expanding the diary entries for the Great Uncle's first slave.  Also managed to code that and a new conversation scene into the game for Eve.  In total, 8.2k words of content added for the A17 build today.  

We have a guest author writing...

General Progress Report

Got a few days worth of content to catch you all up on:

The Allure of Wanton Cove:

-Worked through some old bug reports.  A couple of them are items that have been lingering for quite some time.

-Released a new TEST Build earlier today.  I hope to release the next official build on the 29th.

Inheritance:

-Worked through a fairly long list of bugs and spelling errors, released a bug fix build earlier today with those fixes.

-Have abo...

The Allure of Wanton Cove 1.08 TEST

I know I'd promised to have this up at the end of the weekend, but in my defense, I was unable to log into Patreon between Saturday and earlier today.  Sorry about the inconvenience.

Now, this build includes quite a bit of new content, but the bigger amount of work probably went into fixes and other improvements to the game.  Please report any problems you see, anything from full blown bugs to little spelling errors, to anything in between.  Everything repo...

Inheritance WIP Art: Master Bedroom

It's been a while since I've shared any art with you guys, and it's past time I changed that.  Mostly this has been a case of undependable artists, though it's partially my fault as well for not badgering them more.

Anyway, more on that at the bottom.  For now, Art!

This image is for the Master Bedroom in the mansion.  I'm really happy with how it's coming together so far, nice colors and ambience.  I've asked for a few changes to the image that the artist ...

Inheritance A16a Patreon Build

After far too long, I've got a fix build for all of you wonderful people.  Thank you so very much for your patience.  I appreciate it more than mere words can express.


Friday's release included several bugs, a couple of which were preventing at least one substantial bit of content from being reachable.  This should fix all of those. 

 A16a Changelog: 

-Fixed a bug that was preventing Eve's sauna content from playing properly.

Where have I been?

I had some troubles logging in the last few days.  Just got back in.  (Words can not describe how happy this makes me!)

First and foremost:  I've got a fix build of Inheritance A16 that I'll be posting later today.  

And since I'm already here, a quick progress report:

-Family left Monday morning, meaning that I'm well on my way toward being back to normal for my ability to work.

-Worked through a LOT of bugs the last few days.
-Been doing some work o...

Quick Progress Report

Ok, wanted to get you all into the loop on what's going on since it looks like tomorrow (I guess it's today now according to the clock) is going to be a nightmare, I felt it was important to get everyone up to speed on what all is going on:

Did a bit of writing today, but mostly worked on bug reports.  One of our members was kind enough to put a lot of time and effort into helping out, and they caught a lot of little issues that I've been busy trying to run down any time I had a litt...

General Progress Report

Managed to get a solid three hour block of work in this morning.  In that time, I did a bit of writing for Wanton Cove, but mostly worked on bug reports.  Really happy with what all got accomplished.  Coming up on 8k words of new content for the next build BEFORE counting the rewriting that's been done this week.

In other news, the coder who is working on the poker mechanic sent me the core code for handling the cards today and was kind enough to walk me through how some of...

General Progress Report

Since last I posted, I've had work time in bits and pieces.  Never as long as I would like, but always long enough to get at least a little bit done.

I managed to write a fairly substantial new piece for Inheritance.  His very first Diary Entry for his very first Slave.  It's a long one, and it shows a much younger version of Great Uncle Dave who hasn't been hardened through experience and is just being introduced to the darker world he later embraces.

A lit...

The Allure of Wanton Cove Progress Report

Today has been crazy.  First I was supposed to have a couple of hours to work, then I wasn't going to have any, then I was going to have time to work again, . . . 

Well, the +5 hours I had hoped to work turned into about three.

Now normally I would be a bit grumpy about that.  But today was awesome, . . . In three hours time, I wrote 7k words of content for Wanton Cove, coded it, dropped it into the game, . . . . and still somehow managed to find time to do rewr...

Inheritance (HUGE!) Test Build a16

Got a really great test build for you today.  Not sure if this is the biggest Inheritance build to date, but if it's not, it's close.  

Reminder:  This is the test build.  I've taken a couple of quick plays at it and everything that was found so far has been fixed.  That doesn't mean it's bug free.  If you see something, a bug, an inconsistency, or even something as simple as a spelling error, please report it.  Everything reported helps improve the experienc...

General Progress Report

Thought I'd catch you all up on what's been going on the last day or so!

Since my last report, I got a submitted scene into the game thanks to Irish Major Tom, I worked on Billiards so that you can now play with both girls, and I added an amusing little cumshot scene for Anna that can trigger through the bedroom interactive sex mechanic.  Not a  bad bit of work.

Thanks to a lot of really great submissions the last two weeks, what should have been a fairly large new build has b...

Inheritance Progress Report

Been hard at work.  Released a new test build yesterday that includes a LOT of new content.  Also managed to crank out a scene today that's just shy of 4k words of content and got that plugged into the game.  

Very happy with progress.

On the art front, I just finished ironing out details for the next piece of art for Wanton Cove, as well as a bunch of art related to pregnancy for Inheritance.  I'll be getting that paid as soon as Patreon pays out so work can begin. 2018-06-05 21:30:48 +0000 UTC View Post

Inheritance TEST Build

Got quite a bit going on in this one.  That and we're going to be handling the testing just a little different as well.

So, how testing is going to be different:  I've always tried to post a new test build at the end of each week that I work on my own projects.  That wont change.  However, since I'm planning to release every other week, you will now be seeing two test builds for each new release in most cases.

Example:  I worked on Inheritance this last week, and...

Inheritance Progress Report

I didn't do a lot yesterday, so I didn't feel I had anything worth reporting.  So this is going to be just a little bit recap of yesterday, and mostly what I worked on today.

Last night I finished up a really cute little scene that involves Eve.  It evolves based on how she feels about you, and is even affected by how you treat her sister to a degree.  Very fun scene to write and I'm very excited to see what people think of it.

Today was, . . . interesting.  2018-06-04 01:24:24 +0000 UTC View Post

What do you guys think of the new Wanton Cove cover image?

This last month, I commissioned a new cover image for Wanton Cove.  It was created for the sake of advertising, but I opted to make use of it in the game itself as well.

The start page, I rebuilt how the images are displayed so that it will make use of both the old (Zal'chaas nude in the alley) and the new (Island of Wanton Cove in the background with Zal'chaas silhouetted in the foreground and Deep Ones in the water.) with the new image appearing about 80% of the time.

What should I work on this coming week?

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.  At the end of each week, I take the top item and that becomes my new work item.  All other votes are carried over to the next week to be added to the following week's poll.  

What this accomplishes is th...

Production pace.

Want to have a say in how I distribute my time working?  Read on, . . .

Back when I started producing content through Patreon, I promised a new build once a month with +3k words of new content.  

I quickly settled into a pattern of a new build every other week for the most part, usually ranging between 5-8k words of content.  This was being done while working on Inheritance in the background which meant I was working on Wanton Cove every other week and Inheritance every ...

Inheritance Progress report

Been a busy day today.  About half of the day got shot all to hell as we were still trying to get settled back in after the trip.  Then when I DID get around to working I spent quite a bit of my time replying to messages.  

On the up side, everything is caught up now, and I finished/added a 3.5k word scene to the game earlier today.  Pretty pleased by this.

Tomorrow I should have some good work time, and I hope to invest some time into Eve.  Last few builds have ...

News: Update

Just wanted to let everyone know I'm home from my little road trip again, and am hard at work catching up on messages.  Will be trying to work on Inheritance tomorrow!

News

Got to make this one quick.

Going to be leaving for home soon.  Unless something unexpected comes up then I should be home this evening. 

Some of you have sent messages on one site or another over the last couple of days.  I've been keeping up as best I can, but being on vacation, with all of the chaos that entails, I haven't been able to keep up with everything the way I normally like to.  I will be trying to catch up in the next couple of days.  And ...

General Progress Report, and News

Road trip, day two:  Made it to our destination today.  Was a long day, but but in a bad way.  Got two days here, then a one day drive back, . . . . I'm just hoping that my house sitter doesn't eat ALL of the junk food before I get home, . . . 

But enough about me, you guys are here to hear about progress for a couple of your favorite games, . . . 

I got some writing done this morning, then once I got checked in this evening I took care of a few messag...

The Weekend Thus Far

I'll start with the personal stuff, then move into my progress report this morning.

As most of you know, I'm on a little road trip right now.  Had a fairly uneventful ride so far, though the car started acting a little funny for a minute toward the end of the day.   From past experience, I think I know what's going on, and if I'm correct then it should be a relatively quick, easy, and cheap fix.  (And now that I've said something, it's probably going to be a nigh...

Take the time to enjoy the free build of Inheritance, and if you enjoy it, consider a small pledge for the early access content, or even upgrading to the CHEAT Build of the game that will allow you to adjust the girls' stats at will!
