Super Grapple Day—June 18 Update

It's happening! We didn't want to promise anything until we tested to make sure it was feasible, but we can now officially say that Super Grapple Day will have one of the most-requested features since we've started the project: a procedurally generated Endless Mode.

This gif still comes from the Story Mode, which we're finishing up. It shows an Overkill, a special technique that Ilya can use after she's defeated any opponent. But screenshots of Endless Mode should be coming soon!

Super Grapple Day—June 6 Progress Update

One of the new characters for Super Grapple Day is Chiyo, who acts as the nurse you visit between matches. She has a tendency to accidentally embarrass herself, so it's up to you whether to be nice or tease her...

Ilya Exposed on Camera (Interactive)

Just finished a new clip from Super Grapple Day and thought this might be a fun chance for community interaction.

As you can see, there's now a little box in the top left corner that plays crowd reactions at random. So we thought, why not ask you, the actual crowd?

What do you want the crowd's comments to be? Should they taunt Ilya? Encourage her, even though she's losing? Something else? Leave a comment below, and we'll include our favorites in the actual game!

Super Grapple Day—May 28 update

Here's a preview of the updated battle system in Super Grapple Day. The main change is that we updated the animations to make it look more like they're actually wrestling instead of just standing at opposite ends, and we also added a heart meter to track how many times a fighter has become fully "excited"

Super Grapple Day—May 21 Update

One thing we've long wanted to include in Grapple Day is little walkout animations for each character before the fight, so that's now coming to the game. We wanted each fighter to start out confident—whether they deserve to be or not!

Super Grapple Day—May 14 progress update

One of the big changes for Super Grapple Day is that Brutality will become more brutal! If you enter Brutality with enough time left, you might reach the new strip minigame! But that's only the first step for your unlucky opponent—more soon!

Super Grapple Day—May 7 Progress Update

Menus don't make for the most exciting screenshots, but we wanted to give a little hint here of how much deeper the updated version of Grapple Day—now called Super Grapple Day—will be compared to the base game.

In addition to adding ways to earn money to the game, there's now a way to spend it on Overkills and Finishers, special attacks that Ilya can use against any opponent. There will also be new systems of achievements, including a Hall of Shame, where you can pose with the loser...

Get Ready for... SUPER GRAPPLE DAY!

Here's an early look at SUPER GRAPPLE DAY, a new update to Grapple Day that we've been working on. It's a definitive version of the original game with additional animations, expanded gameplay, and some long-requested feature like the ability to choose individual episodes to play. More updates coming soon!

April Poll Results

It looks like the winner of our most recent poll is more Grapple Day content! So for now, we're going to focus on trying to get out a definitive version of Grapple Day. That said, Boxing Day also got a decent chunk of votes and is definitely still in development—if it looks like Grapple Day will take a while to complete, we might switch over to do another Boxing Day episode to keep the gap between releases from getting too long.

(if you haven't voted yet, we'll still leave the poll op...

Next Project?

We've got a couple different projects in the works, so we thought we'd throw together another poll to get a sense of what people are most interested in.

Boxing Day remains in development, and the next character added would probably be Melissa or Akari.

We've also been wanting to do a new major update to Grapple Day for a while, in order to include long-requested features like a menu to jump to different episodes, as well as a chance to improve some of the animations and add in som...

New Kali Game Update Out Now

A new update of the Kali game is out now! This one overhauls some of the format and adds the most interactive story yet, with some optional extra-extreme endings for the Patreon/Paid version (including a more ambitious version of the boxing minigame from Grapple Day). Posting a new download code for Patrons immediately after this post!

April Gets Tasered for Charity

April's father works in an industry that sometimes requires "strategic donations" to local police and politicians. April wants to get involved in the family business, so her father suggests that she start building good relations with the police by participating in a fundraiser.

April agrees to get tasered for charity... but she underestimates how painful it will be and accidentally exposes herself in front of the local newspaper!

It's April Again!

It's the start of the month of April again, and that means bad news for the character April! Sophie has her trapped in a pretty unbreakable face-sitting pin.

Kali TOYS with Ilya!

Here's a new animation of a familiar situation: Kali "The Bully" Chand giving Ilya "The Tiger" Martin a real butt-busting wedgie for the Grapple Day crowd. Kali is toying with her opponent, pushing her right to the brink of submission before releasing the tension. Keeping a vice-like grip on her opponent's right breast, Kali ensures that Ilya will stay EXACTLY where Kali wants her.

Twist and Shout!

Dani may be a modern pop star, but she still likes some old classics... like "The Twist." Ilya might not have the body of a regular dancer, but she's VERY well suited for this particular dance move. Not that she has much choice....

Just a test animation with some familiar characters. We'll announce the next major update soon, but right now, it looks like probably another short episode in the Kali game, then more Boxing Day!

Did cheerleader April trip and fall into this split or was it sabotage? It sure seems unlucky that the jumbotron camera was pointed at her right at the moment of failure. Or maybe she's just lucky that it wasn't the Kiss Cam...

New Opponent Poll Results!

The results are in, and the opponent for the next episode of Boxing Day will be Nella the goth! She was the star of the boxing episode of Grapple Day, so it makes sense to bring her over to the new game. Akari and Melissa also made decent showings, so we'll be sure to consider them for future episodes as well...

Who should the next opponent in Boxing Day be?

As always, votes from higher-tier patrons count the most, but everybody's feedback is helpful! If there's a clear winner, that'll probably be the next update. If not, we'll either do a runoff with fewer choices or make a judgment call.

2024 Planning Update

Hallo and happy 2024 everyone! With the start of a new year, we wanted to give a quick update about our upcoming plans.

*Our goal this year is to release an early access version of a more ambitious RPG follow-up to Grapple Day. It will have character creation and random content and hopefully be unlike anything else out there!

*Boxing Day will also receive updates, including new challengers. We'll have polls about those soon!

*The Kali game will continue to get small updates ...

Happy Boxing Day!

In celebration of Boxing Day, the next update of Boxing Day is out now! In addition to improvements to the previous fight, this update adds an all-new fight against heavyweight blonde bombshell Sophie!

Grapple Day Grab Bag—Day 24
