AcademyOfFetishes

No charge this month

Hello all. This coronavirus pandemic is getting pretty scary. I know a lot of people may be unable to work and for this reason, I'm not going to charge for this month. I also wanted to say that my fingers have gotten a lot better. Although they're not 100% yet, they're pretty close. With dictation software, I can almost work a full day. Last month, I struggled to work for 10 minutes! It's a mystery to me why I suddenly healed so well (probably that old saying, "time heals all wounds"), but I'...

No charge this month

Hello all! Sorry to do this so late in the month. My finger injury is still terrible and it turns out that creating a new Academy of Fetishes release takes more typing than I anticipated. I'm pretty sure I'm not going to make it in time, especially because I'm going on a little vacation for two days in the month's about the end.

For this reason, I'm going to pause billing for this month like I did last month. If you sign/ed up this month, I think you will be billed for your initial sign...

A little status update

Just wanted to let you know that unfortunately, I'm still injured. I've seen two doctors and three occupational therapists. I get the sense that when they see me, but don't really have a good understanding of my problem. I've since bought a book on repetitive stress injuries, and it gives a very different view of what a good doctor/occupational therapist should be doing with me during the evaluation. Ideally, they would be sitting me in front of a computer and watching my ergonomics as I type...

Proofreaders wanted!

Would anybody be interested in proofreading the setup I have to a new scene with a Luna and Miss Tink? I think it has a good setup but I'd like to know from others. Send me a message if you're interested or contact me on Discord. Thanks!

Happy New Year's!

Happy New Year's everyone! I hope you all had a great year and had some fun celebrations. My fingers seem to be getting better but they're still not a hundred percent. I think I'm going to wait for another two weeks and if they aren't good enough to work at that point I'm going to do the same thing I did last month and not charge for this month. Sorry this is taking so long. I have a doctor's appointment in a week and I'm going to ask him to do an MRI or something that can diagnose which tiss...

Happy Holidays!

I hope you're all having a Merry Christmas. I know I haven't given an update in a while but I wanted you all to know I'm still alive and I'm still thinking about the game as I recover. I hope you're all doing well and I wish you good health and happiness. Have a wonderful Christmas and/or happy holidays!

I've decided that I'm not going to bill for the month of January

Hello Patreons! First of all, I want to start this post by saying how grateful I am for your support. It means so much to me that you enjoy what I'm creating so much that you would actually support me with your wallet.

Unfortunately, for about 2 months now, I've had this finger injury and it has prevented me from working as hard as I want and as hard as you deserve. I can't tell if the injury is healing or not. On the bright side, at least it's not getting worse?

Here's what's bee...

Devlog, Post-Thanksgiving addition

Hi all! I hope you all had a good Thanksgiving if you live in the United States. If you don't I hope you had a great week.

Right now I'm working on a new Quest that involves Mia and Luna. I'm going to explain it here. Feel free to give me your feedback or to skip the next paragraph because it can be considered spoilers.

You talk to Mia (cat girl) and she is upset at you because she thinks you stole her box. Not the box that she lives in, but a box with her per...

Anyone interested in helping me proof read a new Academy of Fetishes scene?

Does anybody want to help review and edit this new scene I made for Academy of Fetishes? It's a very rough draft because I wrote it with speak to type due to my finger injury. Because of this, the capitalization and spacing is totally messed up. If that's all right to you and you'd like to read the scene, please message me with your email address or on discord so I can send you a link. Thanks!

The name of the scene is "The underwater relay race."

Devlog, new quest edition

Hi all! I'm happy to say that I have added a new quest to Monster Girl Farmer. This one involves Luna and I'm currently working on a Jesse one.

Before I started working on Luna's quest, I wrapped up the last bits of the refactoring and edited the story so all the girls are considered to be monster girls.

If all the other quests are like Luna's, they'll take about two days each to add to the game. I have at least 6 quests that are fleshed out enough to add to the game right now, bu...

The new field background

That sparkle and apple in the tree are for two unrelated quests and won't both be there at the same time.  

Weekly devlog: "Similar, yet very different" edition

Hello all! As you'll see from the list below, I got a ton done this week! In fact, I may have just completed the refactoring!

First, I wanted to thank everybody for being patient with me. I really  appreciate it and I'll admit this took me a lot longer than I expected,  but a lot of that time was recovering from my injury. I'm not 100%  healed yet, but I feel like for all intents and purposes I may as well  be.

Just wanted to say I  have not fully tested t...

Devlog, "the quest for more stuff" edition

Hello all I hope you're having a great week. I worked on the game a lot and I'm almost done refactoring Mia's scene. I would have completed it this week and probably an additional scene, but my fingers started to hurt a little bit so I decided to take it easy and focus on thinking of new quests for the game.  I came up with a lot of good ones. By the way, I think this Mia scene is the second hardest scene to refactor and I've already refactor the hardest one, so it feels like it's all do...

Weekly devlog, Field of Dreams Edition

I'm happy to say I got a lot done this week relative to the last month. I've completely refactored the field scene. This is definitely the hardest scene in the whole game so it should all be downhill from here. Working on this scene first also required me to get a lot of boilerplate out of the way. For example, I had to come up with new ways to display the icon in a menu to represent that it cost energy to click. 

Big announcement: I decided I am going to remove the human and trans...

Weekly devlog

How's it going? I got to say, it feels great to be working on the game again! Since my injury, I only had about two days to develop and I've only completed two features, but they were relatively complex ones.  I think all things considered, I got a lot done in a short amount of  time.

The reason I'm writing  this devlog early is because tomorrow I'm going to go on a trip for a few days with my girlfriend. I'm looking forward to the trip but I'm also looking forward to wor...

I'm back, baby!

So, last night, my GF and I searched for a hand specialist that could see me sooner than 2 weeks from now.  We actually found one that could see me today!  I went to him, he took my x-rays, looked at them, and confirmed I did not have arthritis.  In fact, he recommended I try going back to work like normal, only this time, to take more breaks in between typing.  Sounds good to me!  I probably have an acute case of tendonitis, in his opinion, but since my symptoms are ...

Weekly devlog! Medically approved edition

Hello all! It's time for another weekly devlog. Unfortunately, like last time, my health condition has not improved much. Before I get into that I want to let you know that there is a new background picture and nugg has concept art for Hannah that he is working on right now .

For the rest of this devlog I'm going to talk about my hands and their condition. I imagine this is going to be too verbose for most but I wanted to say it to give full transparency of what's going on in my life.<...

Devlog, pre-diagnosis edition

 Slowly but surely, I am healing. The tips of my fingers  used to hurt at  all times  and now they feel almost normal unless I type. Then it's  only a few keystrokes before I start to notice some discomfort. I'm  hoping that just means they haven't healed completely yet and when they  do I'll be good as new.

I went  to the doctor and he decided to do some blood work to help diagnose what  my issue is. I scheduled an appointment to see him nex...

Devlog, injury edition

 Forgive me if there are any weird typos on this. I'm speaking into my  phone and emailing this to me so I can paste it on patreon. I have not  seen a doctor yet thanks to the way my health insurance works, but the  latest I will see one is this Tuesday.

My  injury is still weird and although I wouldn't say it's painful at rest,  it's still a little uncomfortable at all times. I've been avoiding  typing and using my fingers as much as possible. It's ac...

Weekly devlog. "No pain, no gain" edition

Hello all.  I'm going to keep this devlog shorter than usual.  As you'll see, I got a lot done this week, but unfortunately it's about half as much as I could have done.  You see, half way through the week, my fingers started to really hurt.  It got so bad, it started to feel like I was jabbing my fingers into a wall after every keystroke.  I'm not really sure what's wrong, but I've taken it easy, and it seems to slowly be improving.  Today, I'm using a new keybo...

The new general store background!

Weekly devlog: Refactoring edition

Hello all!  I just wanted to report that a lot of my time just freed up, so I can make the game my main focus for months!  The first thing I've decided to tackle isn't a very sexy topic, bit the sooner I do it the better: I've decided to rip out the library I was using for dialogue and replace it with a different library called Fungus.  

There are three main reasons I decided to switch to a new library.  ...

Check out these lil buttons.

Hello! I got some feedback that the original buttons looked squashed, so I told AE | Dagger to give the backgrounds a more circular look.  I'd love to know what you think!

Here's the before:

And here's after:

Hopefully that looks better.  Let me know!

Weekly devlog! Promotion edition!

Hello all! This week was a huge milestone for me, because I finally made the game public! If this is news to you, make sure to download it and take a look. You can find the about page of my Patreon.

Yesterday, I made a post of my game on reddit and it was pretty popular! ...

Look at these cute buttons and your futuristic room!

Hello all!  Sorry about all the recent email pings.  I figure what better way to apologize than to send another one with an apology in it?  I should be getting back into a normal amount of posts soon, but I did have some artwork to show you.  Thank you for your patience!

First, here's your new futuristic room.  I think it looks so cute: 

There's lots...
