Weekend Update November 8, 2020

V.0.52 of The Office Wife has been released for over a week now and it has been quite the success. I want to thank everyone who helped me locate bugs and provided me feedback on it. I've tried to respond to everyone, but if I missed anyone, know that I still read it and I still take to heart everyone's thoughts and ideas on the game.

I have the next release fully plotted out and it's a big one. I may have been overly ambitious.  The threads of the story are expanding and becoming m...

The Office Wife V.0.52 Public Release

Greetings, Stacy fans! Below are the links to the public release of The Office Wife V.0.52. 

A few things to note: old saves won't work right. I've included a handful of saves this time at various places to help accommodate for this. Slot 28 picks up where this new release begins. You can get up to Enchantment 36. You can find the entrance to the park at the very top of the Business District map. As always, please reach out to me if you have any issues.

Update October 27, 2020

Happy Halloween! Okay, it's a little early, but 'tis the season. Halloween is by far my favorite holiday. Here's a special shot of witchy Stacy going on a pumpkin ride with her favorite broom... you all know which broom I'm talking about...

Anyway, the latest update has been released to Civic Leaders and higher and although there were some bumps with a few major bugs, everything  seems  to  be  ironed  out in V.0.52. Thanks to ...

Bug Fix - V.0.52 PRERELEASE

Okay, so the last version, V.0.51, did not fix the "null" bug like I had hoped. The problem was with one of the plugins I was using and I had hoped that adjusting it would fix the problem but it did not. One of the difficult things about it was that the bug popped up seemingly randomly and though I was able to play through the entire game without problem, others were not. Anyway, I found a workaround and was able to replace the problem plugin altogether. This should eliminate the "null" bug a...

V.0.51 Prerelease - Civic Leaders

Hello,

Here is the long-awaited newest update. I released V.0.50 yesterday as a pre-prerelease for Pimps and higher and have since made several bug-fixes and small changes, enough of which called for a separate version number. So, here is V.0.51. As a prerelease, it is still subject to bugs and I still require your feedback (okay, I don't require it, but I DO appreciate it).  

Old saves won't work right. I've included a handful of saves this time at various places to...

Sneak Peek October 18, 2020

Here are a few new sneak peeks for you all. I am still on track to releasing on 10/22 for $5 and up patrons and on 10/29 for the public.  Enjoy!

Update October 8, 2020

Fall is here, though in my home state, it quite uncharacteristically still feels like summer. Not that I'm complaining. Anyway, it's been a while since I've updated you all on the status of the next release so I thought I'd drop you a few lines about it.

Content-wise, this is going to be a bigger release than the last one for sure. Pretty much every major character gets new scenes and so do a few minor characters to boot. There is a very specific place in the story that I want this upda...

Sneak Peek September 27, 2020

Here's a quick look at some of the fun new scenes coming out in the next release. Stacy will be meeting some new characters and reuniting with some old ones. If one thing is for certain, her life is anything but dull!

Update September 17, 2020

With the launch of V.0.40 now two weeks past, I am back into the thick of working on the next update. I have a lot of great things planned, including trying to open up the world a bit more to satisfy those of you who like to adventure around. This is difficult because it takes a balance between dedicating time and resources to the main story lines with the side story lines. However, when I picked RPGM as the platform for this game, I did so because I wanted to give it more of an open-wor...

Hint system feedback

Now that V.0.40 has been out for a bit, I would like to know what everyone thought about the hint system. Has it been useful? Not useful? Suggestions (leave in comments)? I know patrons probably use it less than newcomers, but I'd still like to hear what you think.

Thanks,

 - J. S.

Update August 28, 2020

I just finished the last render for this release. Now I just have to do some programming and a lot of playtesting. Barring any major programming issues, I am on course for a release for $5 and up patrons on August 31 as planned. I will probably also do a pre-prerelease again the night before for the $12 and up patrons. I hope you're all as excited as I am!

Update August 24, 2020

I am not quite where I want to be with the next release, however, I am going to go ahead and announce a public release date of September 7, 2020, which means that it will be available for Civic Leaders and higher on August 31, 2020. The plan is to just rally and get these last few scenes out. Thankfully, I have most of it written, so it's just a matter of doing the renders. That gives me about a week to finish and get the necessary testing done to make sure it all works well.

Annual Memberships

Hello,

For anyone who may be interested, Patreon just enabled annual memberships. I have set the annual discount at the maximum 16%, which is two months free. I'm not completely sure how to go about enrolling, but I imagine it is through Manage Memberships. This seems to be a win-win for everyone.

Thanks,

 - J. S. Deacon

Sneak Peek August 15, 2020

This sneak peek is long overdue.  I've been doing my best to keep productive despite a couple of really busy weeks in my day job. Work is slowing down, though, which will give me more time to work on the game over the next couple of weeks. I am still shooting for a release date at the end of August, but if I'm being realistic, it is probably going to be the first week of September. I will announce a firm date next weekend when I have a better idea of my progress. There is one set of scen...

Update Monday, August 11, 2020

After a fairly low-key but pleasant birthday weekend, I am back to work full force on the next release. I just completed the next scene with Dixon and will  be moving on to a new scene with Jim. I'd planned to publish some sneak peek pics this weekend, but I think I'm going to wait until this next weekend so I can get you a variety of some of the stuff you can expect in the next release. There's still a lot of work to be done, but so far I'm on track with where I want to be.

I have...

Weekend Update August 1, 2020

It's been a crazy week for me in my day job so I haven't had as much time to work on the game as I'd liked. I know that's not what you all want to hear, but fortunately, things should be slowing down soon. That doesn't mean I haven't made any progress. I have three complete new scenes created already including three new animations. I have finished adding all the images with Stacy's new outfit as well and finished my "hint" system, including adding hints throughout the entire game. 

The Office Wife V.0.35 Public Release

This is the official public release of The Office Wife V.0.35. Below you will find the links to download the game and a link to a save file that picks up right where the last release ended. Just download it and insert it into your www folder in the game file. FYI, old save files are probably going to give you wonky results as there have been some changes to earlier parts of the game. Such is the life of playing beta releases :(.

What's new in this release? Over 300 new ...

Update July 20, 2020

The new release has been a huge success. There were only a few very minor bugs reported that will be fixed in the public release on Wednesday, but most of you probably won't even notice them. Also, I'd like to extend a warm welcome to all of my new patrons. Thanks so much for your support, it means a lot to me and helps to ensure I can not only keep producing the game, but keep adding features and making improvements.

I am already working on the next release. The first order of business...

Pre-release The Office Wife V.0.35 for Civic Leaders

Greetings,

Today has been a bit crazy for me. My wife had to go to the emergency room yesterday for an appendicitis, so I've been dealing with that, my normal job, and trying to get this release out. On top of that, an employee of F95Zone leaked the pre-pre-release version early, despite my explicit request not to, then removed me as owner of my own thread when I removed the links.  I'm trying to get it resolved with them as I love that site and the community that they've buil...

Sneak Peek July 6, 2020

Greetings Civic Leaders and higher. To whet your appetite for the upcoming release, I have decided to share with you some sneak previews round two. Please enjoy!

Update July 6, 2020

Hello, I hope everyone had a wonderful and safe weekend. Here in the US, because all of the major fireworks shows were canceled for the 4th of July, everyone instead bought fireworks to light at home. For about ten hours straight Saturday night, the city sounded like a war zone with constant explosions in every direction. It was truly something to behold. I am just thankful I don’t have PTSD as many do. 

I have a couple...
