Progress Update ...

I thought I'd stick to my new promise of keeping you all in the loop with the game's development and give you a little update on my progress ...

Things are going REALLY well with the new Ren'py version. I promise that this is it now: from this point on there'll be no backtracking, no huge changes (at least not until I have the main story finished, lol). 

I'm a little square eyed after a number of hours in front of my computer, porting across and re-jigging various elements fr...

Super quick follow on poll ...

So maybe I was a little hasty in my excitement. (What's new, lol?) From the comment on the last post, I know that at least one person can't access the web version of the game that I posted. So for starters, is that an issue with everyone else too?? 

Here's the link again in case you missed it: https://ggrenpytest.neocities.org/ (does work on my computer but takes a few seconds to fully load)

I'm gonna let you in on a little secret ...

Okay, so I'm guessing you all gave Version 0.2.1. (or as I like to call it "version car crash") a test run? Lemme guess: it looked terrible. It didn't work. The whole thing played like a nightmare ... right? 

Well, I think i figured out why. The more I was pushing Girl Games into a 'visual novel' format (multiple text boxes/images/etc) the more the software I was using to make it (Twine) wasn't handling it. Or rather, I was making all kinds of mistakes trying to g...

Girl Games 0.2.1 - Prologue

So I've just uploaded the newest version of Girl Games, Version 0.2.1: Prologue - which you can play online here and/or download here - and for those who haven't seen my last couple posts, I suppose I should explain what all this 'Prologue' business is about, right? (You can either buckle in for the ...

As promised ...

Well, I'm a woman of her word and as promised here's where I'm up to currently with Version 0.2.1!! 

But don't get too excited, because as you'll quicky discover, it's still kind of a mess ... That said, I have a shiny new ordering principle which I hope you can get behind. 

You see, the game is now broken down into parts: starting with the Prologue, then Week One, Week Two, and so on ... I'm pretty much done and dusted with the Prologue and I'm getting there wi...

Mid-May Status Update ...

So I bet you're wondering where I'm up to. Well, let's just say the last couple weeks has been like a game of Snakes n' Ladders. It was all going on track for an early May release when disaster struck and a whole row of keys on my goddamn laptop keyboard stopped working. (Note to self: don't ever try to replace a MacBook keyboard on your own again, Dana.) But I'm finally up and running again after a week of agony, and have been working double time to try and bring this update in during May (a...

An end of the month Status Report!

I'm guessing you all saw my previous post - the one where I told you all about the new, improved Girl Games 0.2.1? Well, don't worry, it's stil very much on the way! In fact, I've been working flat out on it in order to get it as good as I possibly can, ready to share with you. That said, there's still a little more to do before it's ready to finally unveil, which means that I've decided to pause billing again for this month. I simply don't feel right taking money fr...

So what the heck is happening with Girl Games?!

I KNOW I should have been keeping you all up to date on the game's development and I'm really sorry I've not done that in a little while! As a lot of you will know, I paused the billing cycle for March (both due to not wanting to charge folk during the pandemic, but also because I didn't feel I'd created enough of a worthwhile update to the game - with Version 0.1.6 falling by the wayside a little as i had to work on my day-to-day stuff ...).

BUT, I'm pleased to say that I've actual...

Vote for what I work on next - March edition!

Hey hey, so here's the monthly poll, where you can vote for what you'd like me to prioritize working on for the next update (Version 0.1.6 ). 

Let's take it as a given that the update will include one new chunk of story related to your chosen Mistress ... This is for all the other little bits and pieces. 

I'll try and work on as much of this as I can anyway, but I'll totally proritize whatever you guys vote for! 

Version 0.1.5 is now up and running ...

Hello all - and welcome to the new subscribers! Just thought I'd check in with another status update now that Version 0.1.5 has come out of the private test build and is up and running. Over on the TFGames discussion thread, a few more small bugs were discovered (which I've since fixed) and a few folk chipped in with some thoughts and suggestions too ... 

Over all, I'm pretty happy wit...

The Magic Wardrobe Item Request thread!

So is there an item or clothing or accessory that you'd like to see in Girl Games? A certain style of wig? A particular pair of panties? Whatever it is, comment below and I'll try my hardest to add it! It'll appear first in the Magic Wardrobe and then at some point in time I'll work it into the game proper too! 

Please bear in mind that I do have bigger fish to fry (like writing actual game content!), plus my art/photoshop skills are lacking at best. But you name it, I'll ...

Introducing ... The Magic Wardrobe!

A while ago, I suggested the idea of a seperate dress-up section, where you could customize your avatar and try on all the different clothes, wigs, makeup and accessories that are currently available or forthcoming in Girl Games ... Well, I'm excited to say that idea is now a reality! 

The Magic Wardrobe is accessible to anyone on the $5 'Fully-Femme' tier, so if you're reading this post, that means you :)

I'll be updating it any time I create any new items of clothing or wha...

Did you find everything? ;)

WARNING!!! This post contains SPOILERS for the test build of Version 0.1.5 - so don't read on unless you either want a little help/walkthrough OR you've already played the current version a bunch and are wondering if there's anything else you missed ...

So first off, I just wanna say thank you so much for bearing with me while I got the game back up to where it is. I know from the surface it probably just looks like some extra content has been added, but actually I went right back to gr...

Vote for what I work on next ...

There's still a week before the official version of 0.1.5 goes live, so if there's something small you want added, I'll hopefully have time! What little extra do you wanna see in the live version? I'll try and work as much of these in as I can within the time limit, but will totally proritize whatever y'all vote for!

There will be bugs!

Hey hey! This is the official BUG REPORTING thread, lol. No doubt there'll be little (and maybe even big) things I missed or that don't quite work. Please please please lemme know if you find anything by posting below and I'll make sure to fix it in the official release! x

Version 0.1.5 TEST BUILD is now live!!!

Hey there!! Long time no anything, lol. Well, all that's about to change because the TEST BUILD for Version 0.1.5 has just gone live ...

I wanted to say a huge thank you to you guys for supporting me, so I thought I'd put it up on a super-secret link just so that you can have a week to play it before it goes live everywhere else. Also (the clue's in the name) I was hoping you might be willing to let me know about any bugs you might discover so that I can get them fixed before t...

A Progress Report!

I'm pleased to say that things are moving along nicely with Version 0.1.5. As I mentioned before, I've been busy building the game back up from scratch, cleaning up a lot of code, simplifying and streamlining it no end, and I've also put in a few little easter eggs and extra interractions, etc, around campus, too. The UI is way better and hopefully the game just looks and plays a whole bunch better than it did (fingers crossed with far fewer bugs too!) 

Whats more, I'm proud to rep...

Welp ...

This is kinda embarassing. I'd totally set my sights on getting Version 0.1.5 out by today ... but it's still not ready. I know, I know! I made some big promises, but I also want to make sure it's absolutely perfect - AND has enough new content to keep people satisfied too. I'd hate the idea of rushing it out, only to discover it's a disappointment. Nobody wants that, right?

I really really did intend to get it done by the end of the month - especially as you're all subscribing and gett...

A little update on my progress ...

Hey hey! Just thought I'd make sure to update you all on my progress with Girl Games. Fear not, there'll be a new update - Version 0.1.5 - going live before the end of the month. As I've said in other posts, I'm determined to get at least one update out each and every month and I'll be sure to post it by Jan 31st (although hopefully sooner!). 

As I said in my last post, I've been cleaning up a lot of the back end - reworking the whole thing to make sure it's streamlined and (finger...

New year, new ... habits?

Hey there my lovely patrons! Just thought I'd check in with a little progress report on Girl Games. If you knew me in real life, you'd know one thing for sure: organization has never been my strongest suit. 

In my eBooks, I like to just dive in and see where the story takes me, and I'm afraid to admit that when I started out on the IF adaptation of Girl Games, I went about it kinda similar - learning Twine (the program I've been using to make the game) as I went. 

Which ...

Girl Games 0.1.4 Update!

Hey hey! I'm back with a Christmas treat for you. I'm excited to say that I've just uploaded a pretty big update to Girl Games. I'll post the full changelog in a moment, but there's a whole bunch of new content written (over 16,000 words) including a full rewrite of the Jennifer thread, and a brand new shopping trip with your chosen mistress ... There's also a ton of other small interactions and easter eggs added, as well as a navigation bar at the bottom of the screen to make your journey ar...

A little status update ...

Hey gang! I just thought I'd post an update to let you know how I'm getting on with Girl Games ... I noticed that a few of my initial Patrons had cancelled their pledges and I worried that maybe it was due to people thinking I'd abandoned the project or something. But far from it! i've been hard at work, adding in a bunch of new content - both to the existing story and also continuing the feminization threads for both Heather and Jennifer. Very soon your brand new mistress will be taking you ...

Small update and a little BONUS idea ...

Hey sweeties! Hope you're all doing well. A very small update to Girl Games has just gone live. Hardly any new content for now, more just a few tweaks to make the game a touch more playable based on some comments on the TFGames.site discussion thread. Don't worry, I'm still working on a big Heather/Jennifer content update too and as soon as I have some new playable content you'll be the very first to know! 

In case you're curious, I've posted the changelog at the bottom of this blo...

Vote for what I work on NEXT!

Welcome to the very first poll! Here you can vote for the next main thing I start working on in Girl Games! But before we get into that, I'd just quickly like to say a huge THANK YOU for supporting me. I really do appreciate it! Okay, so - on with the poll! 

Which main aspect of the game would you like me to focus on next? 

[Note: if more than one thing gets voted on, I'll prioritize tasks in order of votes - hope that makes sense!]

So what ARE my big plans for Girl Games, I hear you ask?

Oh my god, I'm so excited to share the vision I have for this game with you! So if you've played the current Alpha version that just went live, I'm hoping you managed to get your ass to Simmonds Hall on Friday in time for the Girl Games audition! (Now I'm curious, who did you pick - Heather or Jennifer?!) 

Well, holy crap, I promise you this is just the very start. I obviously want to make sure the main story arc of the Girl Games competition is complete: I'm seeing it a series of ...
