Yes, that's right, I'm hoping to have the next prototype of Doll Manor out next week. This depends greatly on how our experimental art works out. Hund is trying his best. You'll see.
If it doesn't work out, then I'll finish the story and we'll start balance testing from there and see how it goes. If it does work out, there w...

So this one requires a bit of explanation.
I asked if Zombies and Vampires count as monstergirls since they're just humans but, y'know, undead. After a bit of back and forth, I asked Chicken if she could even make a sexy zombie what with the bits hanging off and exposed organs. She said she could.
So she drew this. Alraunes can become zombies! Canonically, anything can technically become undead (though you'd have a hell of a time zombifying a golem) so she decided to draw three zo...

Hello 5$ or more patrons, time for you to play the new Doll Manor prototype!
Follow this link. The password for the page is "PunkAndGoth".
If you decide to stop being a patron someday (but why?) you get to keep access to this page. Enjoy!
Hey there's an update on the blog.
Been a slow week as I've been called into work at my day job a lot. That all ends on Wednesday.
For 5$ patrons, Doll Manor Prototype 2 will be released tomorrow, featuring a new combat system, colored dolls, new transformations, and more! Get psyched!
(Note: Patreon fails once again to upload songs, the song is provided as an attachment instead.)
This song will be replacing the previous one at the gala. In Prototype 5-3 I had borrowed the gala theme from another game and edited it for our purposes, but it's both copyrighted (duh) and also I couldn't find a clean enough version to get the loop perfectly. So I asked DrDiss to compose a nice Eastern-European theme. It's got that Prague feel doesn't it?
2019-01-22 02:53:00 +0000 UTC View PostThere are corgis over on the blog, along with an update post you won't read because corgis.

Terribly sorry about the ghosts story not coming out first, but Mario was having writer's block on it and decided to work on the story he considered easier first. Ghosts is now on his work list and I just approved the plot summary.
Here's the blurb:
"Mei Yonling can’t catch a break! The hungry girl has been captured by m...
There's a post up on the blog, yay!
Nothing gigantic this time, we're in one of those between-release lull periods. It's up to us to just get down and do all the hard work.
In addition, here's the cover for the Cultist story. Hund is currently working on making us a logo in addition to all the title stuff (it's a corgi, says he) at which poi...
Yep, a preview of the cover for Jillin' with the Jellies. Chicken intends to get the covers for all four stories done this week, and I will be doing posts when they go live and how to get them. For now, just enjoy Mei getting slimed a bit.
(Oh, and please note: This is not the finalized cover. Stinkehund wants to redo the typeface and make our own set of fonts for these instead of using a free font.)
2019-01-08 03:50:29 +0000 UTC View PostYep, this Monday's report is up. Go look at it.
This week, we have the budget report, an ETA on Prototype 5-4 (hopefully!) and the poll results from the animation LIGHTNING ROUND poll. It'll be Alraune Mei getting eaten out by a bee! Hot!
Oh, and patrons this week get a sneak preview of the cover art for Jillin' with the Jellies, which should be release...
2019-01-08 03:43:32 +0000 UTC View PostHey 5$ Patrons! As promised, this poll has been updated with some new options. Please go vote!
The new options are: Mei's Slime TF in Slimeville, Ghost Mei doing Ghost Laundry, and Bee Mei + Random Alraune H-Scene.
The poll tracks your IP, so if you're using a VPN don't be naughty and double-vote because then democracy is a sham.
2018-12-30 21:50:26 +0000 UTC View PostYeah, Sunday Update. I'm going to be busy tomorrow so I posted it today. How's that for foresight?

2018-12-30 21:46:53 +0000 UTC View PostHey! If you're a patron you should go to the Prototype 5 releases page because 5-3e Preview 2 has been uploaded.
Also, if you're a patron, you should go check the poll for animation because I added some new options that had been suggested!
(To the one patron who asked: If you would like to sponsor an animation, you'll need to contact me directly. Please do this on the discord or by sending me a message on Patreon. I'll need to consult with Urimas before we start any animation work...
2018-12-23 00:31:11 +0000 UTC View PostSo, I want Urimas to make more animations for the game. You've already seen one such animation in the Latex Drone Christine + Sophie "Inspection" Scene. There's another animation in 5-3e's preview as well.
We want to make 1-2 per chapter, but these are expensive. What better way to handle it than to let you lovely democracy-hungry voters take care of all the thinking for me?
2018-12-20 16:52:59 +0000 UTC View PostHey, if you're a new patron and want to know how to get to the Prototype 5 series page, here's how:
Click this link. The password is "ChocolateLab".
Even if you cease to be a patron in the future (but why!?) you will still be able to download future prototypes of Chapter 5. Chapter 2, not so much, but you paid for 5 and you'll get 5.
2018-12-20 16:40:44 +0000 UTC View PostAs promised, there's a new prototype for Patrons to be had (very exciting) on the Prototype 5 downloads page. If you're a patron, go get it. If you're not a patron, it will (probably) be released Monday after any major bugs get cleaned up.
If you are a new patron and are wondering where you get these exclusive prototypes, a follow-up post will be released right after this one showing you where to get it.
This prototype features even more backfilling, a conclusion to the Tellurium ...

Chickenwhite just cannot help herself when it comes to bug girls. Seriously.
Mosquito Girls are medical experts, much like the Leech Girls, and are in fierce competition with them to make their brand of Doctor Bags the #1 on Pandemonium.
LeechCo has been spreading rumours that Mosquit-O-Negative Doctor Bags are cheap knockoffs. Are they? Find out in Chapter 3!

So I managed to convince Chicken to finally get around to coloring and shading Cassandra's golem transformation. So here it is!
2018-12-11 00:46:30 +0000 UTC View PostAnother Monday, another crosspost. Find out what our plans are for the upcoming weeks!
And if you're so cripplingly lazy that you can't click that post, here's a golem photo.
Because you people like my diatribes, here's one for you. It concerns 2014 mega-hit Witch Quest and tells you a bit about how narrative design and gameplay loops should work. I also go a bit into Helpless Heroine and, you know, Doom. Doom is always the perfect game to talk about design.
2018-12-06 07:18:23 +0000 UTC View PostPhew, another release out, another brief update post.
Not much this week since we did just do a public release. I'm writing a review of Witch Quest which may or may not be out this week, and I'm going to do the experimental thing of posting it to Patrons early. We'll see how that works out. I don't know if anyone cares about my bizarre ramblings.
2018-12-04 03:59:52 +0000 UTC View Post
That's right, it's out. You can download it here. This is both a public release and a bugfix/content addition for patrons, so you should definitely download it because of one specific thing.
If you are a patron, please become a Latex Drone and talk to Sophie. Ask her about an inspection. Tell me what you think of our new animation system and if you want to see more of the...

Inked version of the lolita doll's final transformation frame.
This is the original sketchwork. The inked version will be shaded and coloured at a later time, and I'll post how it looks then as well.
Why did I choose to post this? Because Lolita Doll happens to be favourite (the ribbons on the boots are the best part). Tell everyone.
2018-11-26 22:32:43 +0000 UTC View PostEmojis! Sound effects! Animations! It's all coming in this week's update post!
For you non-patrons who don't click links I post, the public release of Prototype 5-3 is on Friday.
Yep, now we get to see the exciting results. The big upset? Ghosts are the next short-story by MarioneTTe! That seems pretty exciting!
Regular bonus stuff resumes on Monday. I hope you like dolls.
2018-11-20 01:20:15 +0000 UTC View PostHey look, a free story for 5$ patrons!
This one stars poor Mei and a pink slimegirl. We all know how it ends but it's pretty darn hot on the way there.
Our goal is to do 2 of these per month. Judging by the results of the polls currently available, it's looking like Bees and Ghosts are coming up next. Look forward to it.
2018-11-16 02:31:13 +0000 UTC View PostMan, you know what's hard? Writing blog posts. So instead of doing it myself as I have for the last 100 weeks (BLIMEY!?) I tricked someone else into doing it. He also made the music for Prototype 5-3 so I'm going to assume it's about music. Maybe.
You want to read it? Click this oddly-coloured text. There's also a brief project update squeezed in at the top.
Poll results ...
2018-11-13 02:40:11 +0000 UTC View PostThe time has come for democracy in action!
This time I'm asking about the recently released prototype and your opinions on it, and where I should focus my efforts. I also want to know what you thought of Doll Manor and the short stories (Jillin' with the Jellies is due out soon!). If you haven't read them/played them, you can go do that now. Poll results will be announced next monday.
For all you lovely patrons out there, Prototype 5-3c is now on the Prototype 5 downloads page. Scroll down if you're a new patron.
In addition to some bug fixes, this also contains a few content additions (conversations with Sophie while on a date, new examinables, and the armory in the LRT facility is now populated with stuff) and the long-awaited soundtrack by DrDissonance.
These songs were changed:

Serenity Crater's Theme
