Virtual Succubus 41 Update

Hi!

It’s time! This is the culmination of what we’ve established infrastructure for over the last 6 months.

Interactions may have seemed like a large, complex update - but it wasn’t actually our initial plan for that month. In February, we had actually decided we wanted to fix edging.

​

One of the most cursed problems the game has ever had - how do you make every player able to respond to more specific edging instructions, when everyone has different sensitivit...

Virtual Succubus Roadmap & Version 41 Preview

Hi,

We've, uh, encountered some confusion about the naming of last month’s ‘’final’’ revision build - it appears some people thought this was a final build for the game as a whole. As you can imagine, next time we do that, we'll be changing the term again. 

This is definitely not the case, and I figured I would take this opportunity for a new and updated roadmap explaining some of the things we’ve been thinking about and considering, including updates ...

A new type of build: 40FINAL

Hey!


We’ve been doing the bimonthly schedule for a couple months now.
It has helped a lot on our end - especially in being able to plan for greater things (and to be totally frank, in allowing us to avoid being in unhealthy crunch permanently), but there have been some pain points related to this change I’ve been wanting to address.


Regardless of the whole testing and pre-release cycle, major builds usually get most of their feedback in the weeks following their r...

Virtual Succubus 0.40 Patch Notes

Hello hello!

We hope you’ve been enjoying 0.39!

We know it was quite a lot for the average player to go through, but hopefully that’s led to a better overall experience.

Don’t worry - this month’s update, while fairly massive behind the scenes, will not require much set up from you. I’ll go into detail on what we focused on a couple paragraphs down, but first I’d like to update you on an Itch.io situation from last month. 2023-06-10 18:45:27 +0000 UTC View Post

Development Update: The aftermath of 0.39 & a discussion on testing, pre-release, and scheduling.

Hello again! It’s yet another one of these walls of text!

There’s a lot to say lately.

First of all, I’d like to thank you all for the great support 0.39 has received. Many of you have (to my appreciative surprise) increased your pledge even though you could still receive the game at your previously lower price. I really did not expect that show of support, and the complete support for our decision has been very comforting. We’ve had a grand total of one person truly compl...

Due to some large changes to how toggles are handled, and various other internal changes, your toggles will have to be wiped the first time you start a 0.39 build.

We once again apologize for the inconvenience.

Virtual Succubus 0.39 Patch Notes

Hi, For the first time, it has been 2 months since our last update.  We were able to do a humongous amount of core changes to the game that amount to something that behind the scenes, almost feels like a VS 1.5. We hope it feels the same to you.  

There is so much this month I heavily recommend reading through the patch notes, because you are very likely to miss some stuff otherwise.

You can read more about it here.

Back to the update.

TL;DR...

On Monetization

Hi,

This writeup is a fully transparent explanation as to why we monetize things the way we do. It also contains an explanation for our price raise as of April 10th 2023.

The offer I have previously made, found at the bottom of this post, remains active and always has. So far, approximately 300 have taken it. I only ask that you read this write-up before you take it.

First, a little history on our approaches.

In October, we began takin...

Development Update: An unusual delay.

For the first time since the first public release in May 2020, I’ve decided to delay an update for a month.

While I would generally prefer to provide you all with consistent monthly content to look forward to, this approach has definitely limited things over the years into features that fit nicely into 1-month development cycles.

This month, we began tackling something that hasn’t been significantly improved upon in a while; task variety. While the plans began as more mana...
