Lore book incoming!

Hi everyone!

The lore book is coming soon! As promised back before even Memoirs was announced, it will be available independently for purchase, but all patrons at $60 lifetime and above get it as part of their reward tier.

I have started another, small kickstarter campaign to raise funds for it, but as you can tell by the low $500 funding goal, this is mostly to defray some costs from my artist (TORii) and for marketing. It’s not a major, make-or-break campaign. The book will be...

Vampire Gangs of MoonFall sneak peek

Hi all!

So I'm starting on a new project that is an immediate sequel to Memoirs, called Vampire Gangs of MoonFall. 

Here are some in-development character designs. The game will have the ability to toggle between anime-style art and 3d renders for character sprites.

And we are 1.0!

Base game is complete and can be downloaded through steam or itch.io!

I just want to take this note to say I really, really appreciate all of you for supporting me and your wellwishes. It's a big part of what makes doing game development rewarding for me.

I hope you enjoy the game, and stick around for content updates and the sequel.

Ending thoughts on development

Hi patrons!

Remember, if you meet the qualifications for any of the lifetime rewards, let me know and I'll get you started/send a steam key over.

Now since the game is finished, I have a few ending thoughts if you like reading and that kind of stuff.

Postmortem: So I made a ~40-hour RPG as a Solodev

As of the time of writing, 2022-09-29 23:55:20 +0000 UTC View Post

Took a word count of the project

If anyone asks me for advice on how to tackle one of those 40-hour long RPGs by themselves, my first thought would probably be something along the lines of "don't do it."

My second would probably be "you have to really want it."

What’s next for me and the series

Hi everyone!

I am now finalizing the 1.0 build for Memoirs and it will likely be released sometime in the last week of September.

As that is happening, I thought it would be a good idea to put up a general roadmap of where my development time is going towards in the next few months.

First, while Memoirs is soon to be “finished,” I should probably stress that it is only in the sense of being a finished base game. My original vision for Memoirs is coming to completion, but...

Finished game slated for late September

Hi everyone!

Some good news. Enough progress has been made that I can say (with some degree of confidence) that the game will be finished sometime next month. However, since I don't like to jinx myself too much, I'll simply say that this just the plan, and not that it's an absolute certainty. 

Also, I am uncertain right now whether I will release the update and keep the game in Early Access (even though it'll be finished) in order to spend more time to f...

July update

Hi everyone!

Progress has been pretty steady on the endgame content so far, and I've reorganized some things to ensure that the game will be ready for launch in September. For now, I will be focusing primarily on story content, and some extras, such as new open world features, battle arenas, etc, will be released after launch as free DLCs.

I'm pretty excited about how the story is shaping up, and I hope you'll enjoy the game's conclusion. :D 

May development update

I apologize for not keeping up with updates, I sometimes forget to post Steam updates here as well. 

Don't have much to report for May, development on endgame content is progressing relatively smoothly, although I have a personal matter that may delay things a little (I'm moving, it's pretty stressful and a lot of work).

Still looks like we're shooting for sometime in July for the full launch.

Endgame development and what that means for my patrons

Memoirs of a Battle Brothel is going into endgame development, the final stretch before the game is finished. 

I'd like to say honestly that I'm extremely grateful for the support, both financial and emotional, that I've received from my patrons over the course of this project.

Memoirs is the biggest project I've tackled, and I hope it's a good game and I hope that my patrons feel that their support in me is justified. 

Now, as the game is being finished, I am disc...

Roadmap to Completion in 2022

Hey folks, I almost can’t believe it but we’re looking at the roadmap to the completion of the game.

I’ve spent more than two years churning Memoirs out, and it’s been a great and exciting two years. I’d especially like to thank my backers and supporters, and my little community of fans. Thanks to everyone who sent in their suggestions and bug reports as well!

But before I go patting myself on the back too hard, let’s go over what needs to be done before the game lea...

Memoirs is now 75% finished!

Just wanted to post an update now that dev is past the 75% completion mark! There’s still plenty of work ahead, but at this point it’s mostly adding content, fleshing out existing features, and finishing the story. The foundations of the game are more or less complete.

Big items still left:

Faction Quests:

Each of the four Faction quests will have 6 tasks before Endgame, and 1 longer mission in the Endgame (The Abyss is slightly longer). Yes, this means ...

Shoutout to Paradise Lust

Hi everyone! I'd like to give a shoutout to a friend of mine who's working on another adult game you might like called Paradise Lust.

Paradise Lust is a Lewd Visual Novel/Adventure Game for PC, Mac, Linux, and Android.

The game follows the story of the wreck of the Moby Dick; a pleasure yacht chartered by the Miss World Media pageant for a luxury promo cruise in the South Pacif...

Devblog: Heists, Bounties, Hunts, Bodyguarding

Hi everyone! Big things are coming ahead. What I’m really excited about is the expansion of freeroam content (and fixing the bugs so freeroam is more stable).

Specifically, I’m excited about Faction-specific Contracts, which are unlocked once you do a mission or two in that faction’s quest chain. 

Let’s focus on one type in particular: Heists.

Heists are offered by the Iron Cartel, who are open to expendable, outside talent.

Next content update, more details about the Lore and Art Book

I'm pleased to announce that work has started on the lore and art book which, despite my expectations, has grown quite big. It's currently being spearheaded by my longtime collaborator TORii. Here is the working cover.

As you can see, we're trying our best to make this a quality product. The title is currently Cyberpunk Babes and Lovecraftian Horrors. Not exactly the most creative ti...

Big things coming soon, and a surprise

Hi everyone,

Just a small note that the next content update for the game will likely be a bit bigger than normal, as we are now easing into the second act of the game, starting with the continuation of the Traveler's Mandate questline. I'm also hoping to get a gallery mode added as well, for the various CGs I have stocked up over the past few months.

In addition, I also have a (good) surprise for my backers, as I have finally started work on the art and lore book I said I would wo...

Announcing AI Project Roxana

Hi patrons!

I'm pleased to announce that one of my longstanding dev partners, TORii, is making her own project called AI Project Roxana. As you can see, it involves Kore (or at least an android that looks like Kore).

TORii is working on a new, expressive way of animating sex scenes that will eventually make it's way into Memoirs of a Battle Brothel. You can check out the very sexy, very NSFW demo of this animation style at her Patreon link above. It's free!

Head's Up: Future Fragments is closing in on a release date

Hi Patrons! Just wanted to point out my friends at the The Future Fragments team is closing in on the final release date of their game, Future Fragments! I'd suggest checking them out if it's something you're interested in.

We've got a brand new set of trailers we'd like you all to see!

You can watch both the Safe for Work trailer and the NSFW trailer by checking out the li...

Interacting with companions

 There are 9 companions to choose from in Memoirs of a Battle Brothel, with a max party size of five. You can interact with them around your Guild Hall, and my approach to this is somewhat Biowarian. After all, some of my favorite RPG characters have come from franchises such as Mass Effect and Baldur's Gate. 

As the plot progresses and your relationship with your companions deepen (or deteriorate), you'll be able to unlock new dialogue options, companion quests and even roman...

Golgo's Augmentation Shop now open!

A small shop in Saint Gorfu is now open for businesses, allowing players to change their classes and the classes of their companions. Eventually, the shop will also sell body augmentations (want skin as hard as armor or combat tentacles?), similar to those found in my last game. 

Changing Classes

Changing classes is as easy as talking to Golgo and selecting the Chang...

Devlog: Next demo version and other updates

New Patron Demo content:

Lifetime Patron Rewards

Hi patrons! A few of you have been supporting me for a while now, and I wanted to recognize that beyond what the patron tiers can offer. A few other creators offer lifetime rewards (based on total, rather than monthly contribution), and I think this might be a good idea for me too.  I'll probably add to this list as time goes by.

So the below benefits are in addition to the tier-specific rewards if your tier doesn't already include these items.

New Patron version available on Steam

Hi everyone, the next version, 0.04, is now available on Steam. Your previous key should work fine, and there shouldn't be any issue with previous saves. However, you may need to update game manually as I believe Steam has or will change how auto-updates work for bandwidth issues.

Public version will be released later this week. 

As I said previously, there may be some bugs or glitches, let me know if you run into any. Thanks again for supportin...

Next version to be released soon

Hi all,

Sorry for the radio silence over the last couple of weeks. Like billions of others, my life has been disrupted by the current pandemic. Thankfully, I am safe and working from home, so the disruption is less severe for me. I'm hoping all of you remain in good health and are taking the proper precautions.

Anyways, the next version will likely drop on Monday if no serious technical issues occur. It is a bit rougher than I would like, so let me know if you find any bugs!

Devlog: Heading into the main stretch

Hi everyone!

Now that the game's fundamentals are mostly in place, I'm pleased to say that development will be heading into the main stretch, meaning more content. 

I'll still be upgrading the game's visuals and performance as I go, but now the main priority is putting more meat on the game's bones. The public demo already has about an hour's worth of gameplay, and the Patron version roughly double that, but I intend the full version of the game to have about 20 hours worth.&...

Next Patron Demo and Public Demo

Hi all, just an update on the next version of the demo. Barring any catastrophic technical issues, the next patron demo and the first public demo will be releasing near the end of this week. If you have the Patron version of the demo, there will be an update available through Steam.

What's in the new patron demo?

Devlog: Roadmap for demo releases

Hi everyone! Just wanted to give you some insight on how demo releases will work moving forward. I intended on releasing a new demo version near the end of every month. I can't guarantee this schedule will be set in stone, as sometimes development may have me releasing a version later or sooner than usual, depending on what I'm working with. It's a little bit more frequent than most other Patreon gamedev creators, which will hopefully allow me to gather more feedback.

That being said, I...
