The new bartender options should make the job a bit more lucrative for characters willing to take on more risk. Security is tight, but there are individuals security is hesitant to upset. Skulduggerous characters may be able to exploit the job in other ways.
The update has some details I'm unsure about. Firstly, the Feats system is unavailable to characters who have enabled the cheat menu at any point. This makes sense in a way, and the bonuses they give aren't essential. However, I don't want to penalise people who've used the cheat menu to fix bugs, which isn't uncommon given the game's rough state. Let me know what you think.
Another detail I'm unsure of is the removal of lewd fluid from female characters. Again, this makes sense to an extent, certainly more so than their ability to produce gallons at a time was.
I've also been thinking about clothes a lot lately. My original plan was to have just two shops for clothing. One for regular garments, and one for more exotic fare. I thought this would keep things nice and simple. As the number of clothes increases though, I'm starting to wonder if they aren't getting too cluttered. It might be better to have multiple, more specialised shops. The wardrobe was getting cluttered too, but the UI changes have improved things a lot.
Edit: Updated to 0.2.9.1, which fixes a couple of bugs.
Edit: Updated to 0.2.9.2, which fixes further bugs.

ReplyDeleteMaking stuff unavailable for cheaters is kinda lame, especially if there are benefits for having them.
ReplyDeleteIt's not like there's multiplayer, or online functions that can ruin the game for others because I decide to cheat.
Thanks for your thoughts. This is one of my concerns. On the other hand, I know there are people who prefer it this way. I feel torn.
DeleteCheaters already get so much though that us normies don't, but i can see where you're coming from A. Before this you(me[i use it when i'm feeling lazy or just want to skip to get content] and everone else) could just activate it at the start but only use it sparingly, i use it to bump breast and ass size and to max seduction because i hate the grind but for nothing else as all my other problems can be fixed with save scumming. But i can see where this choice could split the players but i can also see where the appeal todo this comes from as an "accomplishment" angle is because you have to "earn" them and they are not essential to gameplay so it doesn't clash with the "god like power" of cheat anyway. But i'm about to play it now so i'll get back to you with my thoughts and questions.
DeleteYes However as far as I know the Vrel coins only make the pc have better stats when starting anew. This can be done with cheats so defeats the point.
DeleteYou can just cheat with the browser console, or if you're desperate, just edit the html file to bypass disabling it.
DeleteIn my opinion, all this does is penalise those who don't cheat, but still have the cheat menu enabled.
It's not like cheaters can't circumvent this system and give themselves infinite coins anyway.
DeleteHonestly, i would try to set it so that you can only earn the feats if the cheats are turned off. The feets will still need to be earned but the players can choose whate they want to try to earn. Reseting with better stats is fine and qll but i cheat all the time because i luke having big boods and parrasites day one. But i still want to try to earn the feats. So feats should not be connected to the cheat menu at all and they should be things that even if you have the cheat menu, you still need to work for it.
DeleteI kinda see this as a good thing allowing those that don't cheat. It promotes replay-ability by forcing players to play normal and restart more often to try to get those achievements. This kinda helps out with finding bugs if more players are restarting more often.
Delete"Chastity belts no longer come alive"
ReplyDeleteThey used to live????
WTF
It was terrifying.
DeleteDude join the discord server we see a lot of funny bugs there and you can contribute to bug fixes as well
DeletePls put this back in :D m
DeleteAnon im in the discord server but im mostly there to yoink shit from the cursed media portion
DeleteI use cheat menu when playing new versions because I come back to the game once in a while and I don't want to skip old content. It's not like I even kept the old save files if they would still work
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback. I suspect a lot of people do the same.
DeleteThat's pretty much why I use it too. The early game especially involves a ton of grinding and when new stuff gets added, I don't want to have to go through it all over again just to get to a similar position.
Delete'Being a Girl
ReplyDeleteGet to day 50 as a boy"
something sounds off about this...
Oops. Fortunately it's just a typo. The Feat should work as intended.
DeleteEven with the bugs, I think it's fair to block the Feats if the cheats are enabled. But there are times I want to start a game with some stats that are different from the ones you get from the character creation (for example, start the game transformed, or with masochism).
ReplyDeleteI think women should make lewd fluid. First, because is lewd, as the game uses lewd themes not only for the gameplay, but also to satisfy the pleasures of the player, some players like lewd fluids, as reading how the character uses them to make food may excite them. Second, because lactation is optional, how the mechanic will work without lactation? Third, because at the end, is all about fantasy, women usually make small amounts of lewd fluids, but it's the same from men's cum. But this is a game that usually breaks the rules of reality for the sake of sexuality, so I don't mind women making tons of lewd fluid.
You and your team are doing a lot of work, making tons of content. As you keep adding content, you will have to decide to either make a new place, character, or mechanic; or add such content to an already made place, character or mechanic. Regarding the cloth store, I think it can be better to spread wide and make more, each one selling different kind of clothes, like simple underwear, luxury underwear, costumes, and so. Then, you can make each store unique not only on what it sells, but also on other things, like the amount of cash they can have, how difficult can be to break in at night, or how difficult can be to steal clothes.
Thanks for your thoughts. I agree that lewd fluid is lewd, and I'm concerned some players will be disappointed that girls are now dry. That won't be permanent, but I'm not sure if we should go back to the old system or develop something new.
DeleteI agree with Anon. I think the contention was with the name you gave it not the actual mechanic. Don't some woman "squirt" (i'm a NEET so i get my biology lessions from pornhub) so i think that "lewd fluid" is perfectly acceptable and was actual worried about how this removal would effect the balance of in-game play.
DeleteThanks for your thoughts Midge.
DeleteHow about a new trait? Squirter :) Now, that would be interesting. Unlocked trough some mad orgasm requirments - makes you squirt at random intervals and during orgasmas in scenes, showering yourself and others in lewd fluid.
DeleteIt would be unobtainable for males though, but it would have female specific flavor, and males have the whole ejaculation system as a counterpart.
DeleteI have considered a trait like that. I like the idea.
DeleteOh geez... Uh, Well, it can certainly get very messy down there, doubtless as messy as it does for guys, so I think lewd fluid for girls is appropriate, just not to the porno extent that men can do.
DeleteNot all girls can squirt, I dunno what the differentiating factor is, I think it's something to do with what the muscles do involuntarily when you cum, since there's a lot of contractions going on, but I'm not a biologist. I think a perk or something you can 'unlock' would be appropriate, even if it isn't true to form.
Like I mentioned before, perhaps in the future, when stimulation and arousal are seperated, everything might come together nicely, women make more liquid from arousal, men make more from stimulation? something like that.
I have a question to ask.
ReplyDeleteWill new sprites be added to the game? such as characters like Robin or Avery appear in the game, or the sex scenes are more detailed.
I'm not complaining, the game is very good, but I would love for the game to have more sprites, because I'm a huge pixelart fan, and I would also like to see Robin's face in certain situations.
congratulations on the work I'm following all the updates, I love this game
Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it.
DeleteI'd like to add new sprites. Each "main" encounter sprite takes a lot of work though, and the existing two still need fleshing out.
I'm hesitant to represent named NPCs via character sprites as I don't want to intrude on the way people imagine those characters. It would be doable if the sprites were customisable enough.
A possible way to implement this is to have npcs, both named and un-named, share certain sprites that the pc has access too, such as clothing and hair, and then allow the irl player to customize each named npc to their liking and have non-named npcs have a randomizer on their sprites (of course all of this can be switched off and have shadow sprites instead if the player doesn't want to be bothered customizing each character).
DeleteHowever, the problem with this is that its both not an immediate as well semi-near future concern. Added to this is that, if I remember correctly, Vrelnir has stated in the past that he wants to expand on current content first before creating additional areas/characters/etc, and individual character sprites for npcs would most likely come after that, if at all, as making those type of changes to npc sprites is no small task and would probably take a rework of part of the skeleton of the code to make work at all. Its a nice idea for the far distant future, but there are many other priorities for this to come any time soon, if at all.
Anyway, this was probably an unnecessary reply, but meh. Also, love your work as always, Vrelnir, as well as make sure to take your time for 0.3.
-Tempus
That's an interesting idea Tempus. It could work. Thanks for the kind words as well, and I will.
DeleteOW, this is an excellent idea, if you can please add this, of course in due time, I don't want to demand anything, even because I have no right, but that's it, I will be looking forward to someday this update of the customizable npc's will arrive, continue with your great work. thanks.
DeleteThanks, I'll do my best.
DeleteI gotta agree with a. Locking things out for cheaters doesn't make sense in a single player porn game. It doesn't effect anyone else. A penalty within the system for use of cheats? Yeah, that's fine. But don't completely lock something out. I've used cheats for, well, cheatsy fun but also to bug/glitch hunt. I don't exactly want to start my game over (again) to use this new system. Which, really does seem like a nice system, but at the very least shouldn't be a locked system until the game is much closer to completion.
ReplyDelete(And speaking of bugs, while I haven't tested it with this new update yet... At the temple, there's a tentacle scene in the garden. This lead to an unfinished page and I had to reload my save. I can report this proper later after further testing).
Thanks for your thoughts, and the bug report. That one should be fixed, if all's gone well.
DeleteI'm ok with the way the feat system as described as long as there isn't any feat-exclusive content and it's for things that you could just cheat in otherwise.
ReplyDeleteThat's the plan.
DeleteDo Vrelcoins get consumed when used? If I have only one and use it when starting a new game, can I reuse it if I start another game?
ReplyDeleteThey do not get consumed on use.
DeleteAre the download links down/dead currently?
ReplyDeleteThey shouldn't be. Maybe there were briefly when I was updating with the bug-fixed versions.
DeleteAt the start i want to apologize for any spelling errors I made thanks to writing on my phone or just bad english (if anyone want to point my errors fell free to do it, hopefully next time I won t make those mistakes).
ReplyDeleteAdding addisional page to websige with sugestions that will or will not be added in future versions would be nice considering things like bdsm or sex toys being mentioned in every version few times as a suggestion.
Also telling what next update will be about might be a good teaser.
I also thing that you should add more categories of things to make a full picture of what this game is about and then rework old systems that don t fit or add more content (for example make more places to go with only core mechanics and later build upon them more side mechanics). Exeptions being mechanics that didn t work in the end and REALY need a rework.
You also said many times that sprites take long time to make so don t make them now and relese them in separete update or add 1 or 2 per update and catch up with them over few updates (my memory may be bad but you add new things with sprites only every few updates).
Cheats shouln t block anything even in full relese of the game. Adding option to block cheat menu in character creator would be nice for people that don t want to cheat.
I've considered writing a list of frequently asked for content, along with whether they're planned or not. People might find it convenient.
DeleteThanks for your thoughts.
why lock it lol, mh i almost only play with cheats :D
ReplyDeleteIts intent is to have something for people to earn. To give a sense of accomplishment.
DeleteI knew some people would feel the feats were pointless should they be obtainable via cheats.
Delete0.2.9.0 Error: <>: error within widget contents (0.2.9.0 Error: macro <> does not exist)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up. Where abouts was this?
DeleteI think feats should be available even with cheats. Cheats just make the game a fun sandbox mode, that shouldn't restrict content.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback. I never want to restrict content based on whether someone uses cheats. Feats are in a bit of a grey area though.
DeleteFound this error on the Game settings tab when starting the game. There's also a different one at the Feat Boosts Screen (0.2.9.1 Error: <>: error within widget contents (0.2.9.1 Error: <>: bad conditional expression in <> clause: State.variables.feats is undefined))
ReplyDeletehttps://pasteboard.co/IW63TZq.png
Forgot to mention i am using firefox.
DeleteCheers.
Delete0.2.9.0 Error: eventsstreet: error within widget contents (0.2.9.0 Error: macro evenststreetday does not exist)
ReplyDeleteShould be fixed in 0.2.9.1.
DeleteShould be fixed as Anon says. Let me know if it isn't.
Deleteany chance we can get horse stuff?
ReplyDeleteHorse stuff is planned.
DeleteKlain is correct.
DeleteOk still haven't played it but i did think abot the Feat lock for cheats and here's what i got. I actual don't feel like it should be gated and here's why, even if you can get most of these in the cheat menu( x amont of money, not passing out for 50 days etc) you can't get them "all" from there like finding all of the treasures and certian events and even if this is just a way of enticing players to not use cheats if the feats only add things that can be emulated in cheat mode anyway then it doesn't matter. But i kind of agree that blocking content(except for the fetish boxes) shouldn't happen as the cheat option isn't a personal "taste" thing. My vote is to open it to all players, as was stated above by A somewhere "It's not like there's multiplayer, or online functions that can ruin the game for others because I decide to cheat." and ultimatly the players who play it vanilla will still get their "achvo get" satisfaction and those that don't wont miss any content.
ReplyDeleteNo content is blocked by using cheats. You are free to use feats even if you have cheats. The only thing that is limited the ones ability to 𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯 the achievements.
DeleteMidge is right, if we can get the feat content through cheats then what's the point of restricting it? Plus feats being allowed with cheats doesn't affect those who play legit.
Delete"The only thing that is limited the ones ability to �������� the achievements." But to what end? why restrict it at all? That's really what i'm asking and i see no real reason to gate them when doing so doesn't impact in-game how anyone plays except for those not using cheats then it is working as intended(hopefully). All i'm saying is that it doesn't NEED to be blocked(unless i'm missing something :( ).
DeleteThanks for your thoughts Midge. I see where you're coming from.
DeleteKeybinds/shortcuts no longer work in this version
ReplyDeleteAre you playing the normal or text only version?
DeleteIs anyone else having this problem?
As a kid I really liked choose your own adventure books, as a teen I fell in love with games and they pixel graphics, as an adult I develop taste in "mature" stuff, now imagine my bliss when I found this game, you sir Vrelnir rock!.
ReplyDeleteIf I can make a request will be 3 things:
1- add a "bin" or another option to throw away clothes, my wardrobe it's getting full of "trash"
2- I find quite immersion breaking that all the dicks looks the same, sure they can be a different color but a tiny dick has the same graph as an enormous, obviously I won't ask for a graphic for each sizes that will be a ridiculous amount of work, but if you could make at least 3 (small, normal, big) that will be great
3- We need some kind of houses or apartments to live in (paying rent), maybe a crappy one that is cheap but under assault of pervs and a nice one that expensive and will get ocasionally robbed or raided by the police in suspicion of having "illicit goods"
To address number one there is a "Discard" toggle, you can remove clothing with that
Deleteyou are right, and I guess #3 wont be needed if we get some way to kick or replace Bailey, maybe PC could work in the orphanage instead?
DeleteThank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it.
DeleteAre you referring to NPC or PC cocks (or both) in your second point?
Alternative living arrangements are planned.
Gonna be honest here, never played as a boy, so definitely NPC.
DeleteNice to know :)
DOL can't decide Sirris's gender. (Sirris is male in my save)
ReplyDeleteYou do as instructed, and spread your legs, exposing yourself to the room. Sirris looks increasingly flustered, but continues regardless. She gently takes hold of the end of your penis with her thumb and forefinger. Your classmates crowd round for a closer look, shoving each other for a better position.
"He's getting hard!" exclaims the wide-eyed girl, redoubling your humiliation. Sirris ignores the interjection and commences his explanation of male anatomy, using your displayed manhood as a prop.
Thanks for informing me.

ReplyDelete0.2.9.1 Error: ejaculation: error within widget contents (0.2.9.1 Error: ejaculation-pillory: error within widget contents (0.2.9.1 Error: if: bad conditional expression in 'if' clause: Cannot read property 'penisdesc' of undefined))
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update! Regarding the Feats system, I think users with cheat menu enabled should also have an access to it, IMO. The basic reason is the same as your concerns: the game is still at a rough state. In my case, in previous update when the chef job was first introduced, I enabled the cheat menu so I can keep track of Sam's love and see how high love do I need for the job. There are people like me who just used the cheat menu to see the numbers or not even have opened them once despite the option activated. Also, when the saves from last version weren't compatible with a new version, I used the cheat menu for my new character to be at same status as the old one. Sure, I guess the merits from the new Feats system can be achieved by the cheat menu, but to people like me who don't exploit cheats in that way, it seems quite unfair. All in all, I think you better make an alternative for this kind of situations, e.g., having the exact numbers shown in the status, social, and what else.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteAye, those are my concerns. The feat boosts might be pointless for people who cheat their stats around anyway, but there are other reasons to enable the cheat menu.
Found an error, using the mesh shirt with the fishnet tights creates an eerror in the image. I tried some combinaction of clothes and it happens when jsut wearing a mesh shirt and fishnet tights.
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know.
DeleteSo feats and coins, if i unlock them and make another save thats using cheats do i still have access or am i forced to play without cheats?
ReplyDeleteYou can use the coins on any save. It is simply unlocking more coins that cheats prevent.
DeleteAs Klain says, enabling cheats just prevents unlocking them on that save.
Delete0.2.9.1 I think the 3rd dog of the Night pack might be busted. I had no access to it's genitals and even though both of my hands were set to "stroke" it said the dog was rubbing it's genitals against my hand.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the information.
Deletehello! im not sure if this is a bug or if im just not doing this right, but every time i try to download the normal version (including past versions, not just this update), the pictures dont show. theres just those tiny broken image icons with the little folded ear on the top right corners.
ReplyDeletei dont have my adblock on, and everything seems to be downloaded correctly. im not very tech savvy, so idk what i could be doing wrong? is there some sort of setting i should be enabling or something? pls help!
also if it helps, im using the latest windows on a pc, not a mac, and im using google chrome
try to unzip the archive. The IMG folder must be in the same folder as the HTML file.
DeleteThanks for the answer Anon.
DeleteExcellent update as usual Vrel, you never fail to let us down.
ReplyDeleteI have an idea for a kidnapping scenario, not sure it you would want to implement or not. My idea is that the scientist at the compound can send henchmen kidnap you, or detain you in their lab if you are caught breaking in to the compound. You are then kept there for an extended period, a couple of days or over a week potentially. The PC is then trapped in a giant test tube while nude and is suspended in liquid. Then various sexual experiments are performed over the course of the days/week that the PC is trapped before they are rescued (by baily or friends?) or escape.
Not sure if this is something you want to implement but I think its a nice idea for a different type of kidnapping scenario
Thank you for the kind words, and the idea.
DeleteI plan to include more kidnapping scenarios. My only concern is making them too similar to each other. A compound imprisonment could be quite different to the existing scenarios though.
Hey Vrel, thanks for another wonderful update. I just have to ask, is more crossdressing content on the table? Particularly around being discovered, bullied for it, blackmail and possibly some interactions with Robin. If you can add some content relating to that I will be your best friend.
ReplyDeleteMaybe some crossdressing fame as well.
DeleteYou're welcome. More crossdressing content is planned. I want to work crossdressing into the school status system once it's better developed, though I'm not sure of the details.
DeleteWomen with a strap-on still recoil in pain during oral if you choose to bite.
ReplyDeleteThose are some high-tech strap-ons. Thanks for letting me know.
DeleteA lot of the new clothing items look like garbage,and they all do the same thing as already existing items. Making them pretty much worthless.
ReplyDeletemaybe it would b better to lower the scope of items instead of wasting time adding new stores?
but w/e.
the sou'wester is cool tho.
Sorry you feel that way King of Brocoli. I think the new clothing looks great, and I'm grateful to KG for producing it.
DeleteWhile I agree making clothing items mechanically unique would be great, I don't think aesthetic variety for the sake of it is a bad thing.
So, about that "secret kitchen". Isn't it's kind of impossible to keep a secret place, where food is being prepared on a daily basis in large quantities, inside a living building? I mean, the whole building gonna smell with the aroma of preparing food. So, that turns into a question: is Bailey SO afraid of the loft that they'll ignore it, or does they have a some sort of a chronical sinusitis and don't feel the smells at all? I'm not nitpicking, it's just something that really doesn't add up in my understanding...
ReplyDeleteBailey's sense of smell is okay. The building has a regular kitchen, which produces aromas that mask the secret kitchen's.
DeleteYou're right that Bailey might suspect something though. Just not enough to overcome their fear.
Why remove lewd fluids? :c
ReplyDeleteThey'll be returning in a new form.
DeleteOh, ok. Thanks for your work.
DeleteOnly here to say thanks for your work, I really appreciate it. Keep going. Waiting for progress. Wish you luck.
ReplyDeleteThank you, and you're welcome.
DeleteHi Vrelnir! I really love your updates!!! :D I can't wait to play it
ReplyDeleteWhat are You planning to add next?
Thank you, that's good to hear!
DeletePlanning on laying more groundwork for the farm next, but there's a bunch of smaller things I want to get done too.
Vrelnir! it's awesome as always.
ReplyDeleteBUG this part doesn't work as intended:
purity:{cost:20, limit: 100, minCount: 2, count:_keys.count("Angel","Fallen Angel"), exclusive:"impurity"},
Thank you!
DeleteThanks for investigating that bug as well.
The game is on a very early stage, and with a lot of unknown bugs, some require some cheats to continue the gameplay. And, creating a non-cheat only thing, kinda removes the meaning of the cheats menu... And encorages players to find other ways of doing this, like, messing with the code.
ReplyDeleteThat's my sincere opinion.
First, as it has been mentioned, that new "non-cheat only" thing is basically useless if you're using cheats (because everything that thing has, you can do with cheats anyway).
DeleteSecond, "a lot" is a pretty big exaggeration. I've been playing this game for an almost a year now, and I've never seen any game-breaking bugs that would've forced me to use the cheats menu.
Third, if you can "mess with code" (like, through the "SugarCube.State.variables" command), then why would you even need to use cheats menu in game?
And lastly, having some sort of reward for an honest way of playing the game (without any cheats) is a pretty pleasant thing, don't you agree?
Amazing update. The change to the wardrobe is wonderful, especially liking the tab view going through each piece of clothing.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm glad you think so. The old wardrobe UI can get awfully cluttered.
DeleteHm, what if you sort the clothes in aisles rather than different locations?
ReplyDeleteI totally agree that different cloth types can be set at different locations [costumes and curiosities at the forest shop, ordinary clothing at the mall, seducive attire at the strip club mayb etc.].
But consider sorting the clothes in aisles just like in any other shop. Girl stuff is in one corner, boy stuff in the other. Formal things and more expensive things get their own aisle.
Once in an aisle it get's sorted by clothing slot [head, top, bottom, etc.].
How does that sound like? I personally think it's a good idea to sort them like rl shops.
Thanks for the idea. I believe someone suggested aisles in the past for the sake of separating masculine and feminine clothing.
Deletectrl + F "Whitney"
ReplyDeleteCome on lads just add more of her she's the sole reason I play the game
More Whitney is coming. Sorry for the wait.
DeleteI liked doing the pastry chef stuff as a girl but I'm not into lactation, so it's sad to see the lewd fluid get cut for them and I want to put my vote for including it back in, even if it stretches realism a bit.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback. I want it to return in some form.
DeleteHi Vrelnir, it's great that different dick sizes are implemented now, but it feels like it doesn't affect a whole lot of things right now :)
ReplyDeleteFor example I would imagine that losing your virginity to a monster cock (if even physically possible) would be a lot more painful than losing it to a normal dick - and even the most excited assailant probably wouldn't try to stuff in a dick as thick as her thighs without at least testing with his fingers first ;)
It would be great if well-endowed attackers would for example fall back to a thigh job if they realize that there's no way to make it fit, and I'd be really excited to see a size queen trait for characters who just love to stretch!
i'll take your entire stock
ReplyDeleteAnother big leap, thank you to everyone for your hard work. This games updates & progression to improve is up there with no man's sky's but with hentai. I am so proud of this community.
DeleteThanks peepee. I'm blessed to have such an involved and dedicated community helping develop the game.
DeleteThere a bug every time trying to visualize mesh shirt in old and in new game save same issue
ReplyDeleteo.o great update btw. Love that new wardrobe interface. (But there scaling issue. Not sure how to describe it in a correct way but I'm sure I shouldn't be able to scroll from left to right sides of screen, same situation in clothes shop but only in "coloring" tab
Have a nice day =^-^=/
I'm glad to hear it. Thanks for the heads up on that issue. You have a nice day too!
DeleteHey, long message here, I would like to start by saying that I love this game.
ReplyDeleteThen I had some ideas that I think could be some neat additions to the game.
First I thought about letting the PC hire dancers at the Club or Brothel, which would lead to consensual sex in exchange for money. And even perhaps allow the PC to ask for nothing sexual, (just like that guy who keeps complaining about his wife) and have a stress-trauma decrease instead.
When encoutering the policeman in disguise, I thought about refusing payment for lewd/sexual actions, such ask selling your underwear, letting people take pictures or simply prostitute yourself. I don't know if there should be any benefit for doing that, I'm just putting it there.
Also, I like the masochism mechanic, but I wish it was accessible without using the bratty option to ~~shittalk~~ tease your partner. So I thought, maybe a meek/submissive act (depending on your submissiveness level) that lets you ask to be choked/spanked/bitten/scratched etc ...
I like the idea of seeing other people on the pillory, but it kinda sucks that you can only be mean to them. So I thought, maybe do something nice for them, like covering them up or cleaning them (You might get better ideas) and possibly have them come back and help you, should you ever find yourself in their place. Also having them come back with a vengeance if you're mean to them could be nice.
And finally, I was hoping for more consensual group sex, the only one I can think of of the top of my head is the staged gangbang at the brothel (and even that one is rapeplay) also chained sex, this is less rare, but still always unconsensual (not a huge fan of rape).
I think that's pretty much it, again I love this game, and even if nothing of these is ever added, I would still await each update eagerly.
Thanks for the ideas and the kind words. I'm glad you like the game.
DeleteI like the thought of the PC helping out the pillory victims. Not sure if such a thing would be accepted by the other townsfolk though.
There are other consensual gangbangs, but they are indeed uncommon. I don't want them too occur too frequently, but they could perhaps be more accessible.
Thanks again.
Sex scenes are still very repetitive.
ReplyDeleteI hope for an update that adds to this, or any "story" update. Would like more interaction with the NPC's such as Whitney.
I fear my desire to improve sex scenes has no easy solution. It's just something I need to keep working at, making them better bit by bit.
DeleteMore interactions with NPCs, including Whitney, are planned.
Thank you so much for your work, we all appreciate it :)
ReplyDeletesuggestions for the future [SPOILERS BELOW]:
maybe if we rescue whitney at the culmination of their story, they back off, at least a bit? its a pain to keep dealing with whitney on the no-cheat runs (i do use cheats for some plays tho lol), but also making them be sold into sex slavery to be raped for im assuming the rest of their life just seems... incredibly cruel to me. maybe im too soft hearted but id like an option to get rid of them that isnt so evil. yeah theyre no angel themselves but id never wish that on anyone... itd be nice to have a way to make them leave me alone without doing that to them
also, chastity options dont really protect from anything anally. maybe there should be something for that? even if its not necessarily intended for chasity, like a buttplug, though it would be cool if innocent/oblivious characters with -200 awareness didnt even realize it was a sex thing lol. like some shady monk is like "hey put this in your butt it will protect you" and you can be like "okay! :)" and accept without thinking anything of it. and maybe that corrupts you? or well, that would defeat the purpose of pursuing a butt plug for chastity, trying to stay pure... sorry, im rambling. just saying that some anal chastity would be nice, and butt plugs in general too!
also in general, like i kind of hinted at above with the chastity stuff, id love to see more effects of awareness! i know it already affects trauma (or lack thereof), but little dialougue options and NPC comments n stuff would be nice, even if they dont do much. like how when you arent wearing underwear and theres a little prompt where you can say you dont mind going out commando! its just nice and makes it feel more like youre molding a character, yanno? like, its not just that they forgot undies, they CHOSE not to wear any! i like stuff like that :) sorry im rambling again asdfghjkl but yeah, if possible id love to see more impact wrt the players level of awareness :)
You're welcome! Thanks for the suggestions.
DeleteI agree it would make sense for Whitney to become more tolerable once you've rescued them. Low dominance does make them interfere with you less frequently.
Chastity belts have the option of fitting an anal shield, which should protect your butt. That said, I like the idea of plugs having a similar function.
I can't argue with additional awareness-based options. Sounds like a fine idea. Purity and other stats could use the same.
Thanks again.
I really enjoy this game, have been following it for ages and its crazy to see how far its come (or cum, haha).
ReplyDeleteOne thing that I would like to mention, if you ever find the time, is that I would love to see more options/paths for consensual sex.
Specifically, the player can act 'submissively' with the purple options, and while that gets their attackers off quicker, the event is still traumatizing. I would love to see options for characters that are such sluts, so promiscuous, that when someone tries to make have sex they respond with eagerness and excitement, they are one hundred percent into it as well. Or even characters that, while they might not be so eager, aren't traumatized by it, they are just bored and/or see it as an inconvenience. Something like: "Damn, another guy trying to bang? Shit, make it quick, I have ten minutes till class starts"
This might even affect NPCs. For example, if they are someone that gets off on being dominant and forceful and raping people, they would become disinterested once they find out the player is willing to have sex, and leaves them alone to go find another victim.
I can see this being tied to promiscuity, to have those options during events depending on how promiscuous you are. As for the kind of player that finds being so attractive inconvenient, I am not sure what those options would be tied to.
Thank you for your time
I'm glad to hear it. Thanks, and you're welcome.
DeleteI don't plan to allow submissive characters to entirely avoid trauma like that. The closest thing is the "innocent" trait gained by very low awareness. That said, I understand it's something many people want.
I like the idea of sadistic NPCs losing interest if the PC doesn't seem distressed enough.
Bug list 0.2.9.1, old save stuff first, new save stuff will be a bit later in a reply post. Save used is originally from 0.2.8.3
ReplyDeleteVolleyball - multiple errors thrown, all 3 variants of the event (ball to chest, bottoms pulled down, generic). Topless female character (appears male), excited about being seen. Event still needs handling for a topless female PC having it's bottoms pulled down (unless that's what the errors were from?).
Most of the the new glasses - have alignment issues with eyes, and substantial issues with multiple fringes. Tested with both the default graphics and lol747's image mod (0.2.8.x version) in case they were using that as a base (likely pointless, eye position remains the same/very close as far as I can tell). Unsure how much of this is expected due to assorted hairstyles and varied glasses styles, and how much is in need to fixing. By item: skullduggery mask (severe clipping issues), low frame (alignment (style?)), half-moon (minor clipping), deep frame (surprisingly fine), square (vertical alignment (style?), minor clipping), round (major alignment issues, especially the right lens (viewed on the right, not the player's right)), shield/safety glasses (clipping, horizontal alignment (needs shifting right)), cat shades (clipping, alignment (style?), substantial right lens weirdness).
Mesh top - while it's flagged neutrally, it isn't flagged as non-concealing and blocks the male flag that occurs for a small chested female character going without a top. Presumably should be flagged the same as the corset. Out of curiosity, why is this an under top rather than an over top? Bra + mesh shirt/tank + mesh shirt (on top) are the most common female uses for them that I'm aware of, and for males wearing them as a shirt either over or under would work fine (although the sprite art's style is a bit different from the vest that's the usual male version). I guess it doesn't matter that much though, since there aren't any under tops that can be worn with them currently without exposure issues, which leads into the next things pretty well.
Suggestion - generic t-shirt/undershirt and/or tanktop as an under bottoms. They're worn as under bottoms, by both males and (less often) females. Would also make sense for less lewd characters wearing overalls and jackets. Unsure if over top art could be recycled or if there would be layering/clipping issues. Also unsure if they can be flagged as non-underwear/non-exposed, which would make sense, or if that's tied to the layer. Turtlenecks or other long sleeved shirts that are typically under other shirts would fit as well, and work well with vest style clothes (e.g. the new argyle vest).
Fame - continues to be able to overflow to excessive amounts. Quickly tested on an old save with a bit over 7k exhib fame (~6 hrs wandering the streets), exhib fame events appeared to be blocked (received multiple fame events during that time for non-overflowed fame types).
Leather jacket/vamp jacket - flagged as male, and that flag takes priority over visible breasts, which is kinda odd given the open front (cleavage or a bra should be obvious even if it stays closed enough to prevent full exposure). Simply removing the male flag could work, but wouldn't be ideal for small chested cross-dressers.
Khaki's - are very clearly brown, not khaki. I can't not comment about that.
Suggestion - argyle vest - isn't something I expect to use much, so this isn't something I particularly care about, but it may be worth considering making it two or three tone since most argyle uses multiple colors.
Thanks for the details.
DeletePt1
DeleteFeats - No built in option to reset them. Seems like it should be easy to add in, and will be desired by those who are more interested in seeing how many they can get per playthrough than making things easier. Would also be desirable for testing.
Feats - After obtaining them, it isn't always clear how they were obtained.
Feats (commentary) - haven't unlocked many yet, so only seen a couple of the bonuses, but the bonuses I've seen can all be replicated/near replicated by using the cheat menu (example of near replication would be adding cash no buy clothes rather then getting the random bonus clothing). Doing a run with it disabled for now, but needing to rely on autosaves to get out of a broken event, and the lack of being able to advance the seed (trying to generate new content) is a bit annoying for testing purposes.
Feat: Alluring - possibly intended, but the first time the PC is nude/half nude it will receive this (not sure if choosing strip all in wardrobe when making a new outfit will trigger it). Will presumably occur the first swim class if the player manages to avoid getting it before then, but haven't deleted the cookie to test that. Might want to increase the difficulty? Received day 1 on a nerd background PC.
Feat: Anti-Social Moth - Got this at the end of day 1, before many NPC's can be met (assuming it's tied to talking to named NPC's).
Rain (old) - Jobs that occur outdoors won't fully process rain until after the event. This can potentially prevent certain exposure related sub-events from firing (e.g. cleaning gutters on Domus St)
Park Toilets - female PC, cannot train exhib using the female restroom (stripping then leaving), can train it using the male restroom. Unsure if this is a bug or intended to increase risk and limit exploitability.
Park Toilets (previously reported) - finishing masturbating counts as re-entering the toilets, potentially prompting a scene describing the PC entering with an NPC angrily following. Should be an easy fix, just setting it so it doesn't generate a new event on completion.
Cat bell collar - described as a collar + leash in the sidebar, but doesn't appear to count as collared for event purposes. Tested in the school locker rooms. Events possibly in need of compatability: Locker room repeated entry, history class (slight modification, role-playing as a cat not dog?), Whitney collared strip event, around town collar commentary (change kennel to... something?), Whitney collaring (unsure?), beach pass-out collaring (unsure, but needs compatibility for already collared regardless).
Beach - Skirt flare event - Female PC, sundress + plain panties, Exhib is high enough for ex4 actions (can't see exact amount due to feats). No option to let underwear be seen (usually ex2), but if the character isn't wearing underwear she can let the skirt flare up (ex4, which the character has). Worn underwear variant appears to not be firing properly (I'm assuming that having one was intended).
Shop - try on: trying on an item that the PC is currently wearing, then leaving the shop is glitching. Still displays the stealing message and +crime, but the item is not added to the wardrobe. Unknown if crime is actually being added (feats). Observed with the cat bell collar, possibly durability/lack of durability related.
Cat bell collar - nuisance to wear regularly + at midnight without multiple copies of it due to the "set's don't check worn items" issue, as well as sleeping nude removing it. Not sure if there's a good workaround other than having multiple copies of the (inexpensive) item.
Volleyball - throws errors on new saves as well, cause is a bad if statement.
DeleteClothing shop - try on->steal no longer returns worn clothing to the PC's wardrobe. Didn't see anything about this in the balance changes, so assuming this is unintended. Ignore the shop-try on entry in pt1, scope was a bit larger than I initially realized. Applies to both clothes and accessories.
Chef - Female PC's no longer produce vaginal fluids (is that the no semen in the change-log?). This makes the job unplayable with female PC's if lactation is disabled. If this is intended, I'd recommend making the job and Sam's consideration events have lactation enabled as a requirement, because realizing it's available but unplayable isn't anything remotely resembling fun.
Kylar - old issue, but Kylar's room invasion events can occur in the gap between meeting Kylar (choosing to ignore) and Kylar introducing themself. Unsure if it's only the initial event (with Kylar not being spotted), or if that gets stretched out long enough it will advance to the ones where Kylar is caught.
Suggestion: Clothing shop - Expand the x5 options to include nighttime theft, daytime should probably be left as is due to the difficulty of stealing in bulk with others around. Mirrored QoL improvement for those playing less ethical PC's (well playing thieves, pretty sure regular theft still doesn't hurt purity and remains available for angels, and angels seem like they're supposed to be considered ethical by default).
Cat bell collar - doesn't actually increase the cat transformation, confirmed with cheats on. Tested both awake and wearing at midnight as well as having it set as sleepwear.
Feat: Pocket change - earning 1k is listed as the unlock, having 1k cash on hand is the correct unlock.
Feat: Leighton the Shady - doesn't unlock if Leighton takes the PC's vaginal virginity at the brothel. Could use clarification if it's only intended to apply to post-photoshoot.
DeleteIn regards to the Clothing shop when trying on then stealing, i think that makes sense that you don't get what you wore into the store back into your inventory. You're trying on clothes and walking out with them, leaving your old clothes behind. While it may/may not be a bug, i feel it's a consequence to stealing clothing.
DeleteAs for the Chef issue with female lewd fluids, the Chef job relies mainly on the lactation content, the fact that other fluids can be used is just a bonus.
Thanks again for the feedback, and for the heads up on those issues.
DeleteI agree a built-in way to reset feats would be good. Lollipop Scythe made some feat adjustments for 0.2.9.2 which help some of the issues you note.
The cat bell having a leash is not intended.
The lewd fluid change was intended, but will be changed again in the future. Anon is correct that the chef job relies mainly on lactation regardless. Not sure if it's worth disabling if lactation is.
idk if this was always there and i just never noticed it, so just a general comment not about this update: i love the 'lustful' idea! of the character having to manage their lust, it sounds fun! going to start a new save and try it now :D
ReplyDeleteIt's new. I'm glad you like it! It should give more purpose to masturbation.
DeleteThe new wardrobe interface looks great! Call me an aesthetic/design nerd but that might be one of my Favorited parts of the update, lol
ReplyDeleteGlad you think so!
DeleteA little bit about penalizing cheaters, - I played without cheats for a while before and I understand the reason behind your decision, however the reason why I am using cheats now is that there is too much time you have to put into acquiring money/keeping stats high. I had lots of free time before, spent around 3-4 hours in this outstanding project, now I don't and maybe there are others who use cheats because of that too.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I support your decisions anyway.
Suggestion time!
Since Player can be a part of the criminal stuff more and more with each update, how about eventually adding the other side? Maybe assisting/joining police department or any other law-enforcing structure would be an interesting idea? PC could influence Police Department in some ways too.
Best games out there have choises, conflicting ones too.
Thanks for reading, I hope you shape that gem you made already into something deep and shiny.
Thanks for your thoughts, the suggestion and the kind words.
DeleteI'm considering letting the PC aid the police in return for their overlooking criminal activity. It's on the cards.
Hey Vrelnir! What software do you use to make the art and sprites of the game? I would like to help on the art of the game :D
ReplyDeleteHey! I'd love to have more help with the art. I use Piskel.
DeleteThere are channels on the Discord for people who want to help out with the project.
Where can we find eden?
ReplyDeleteIn the forest. They'll find you.
DeleteHow about more variety at the start of a 'combat' when people reveal their genitals?
ReplyDeleteAdditional to the usual "he opens his fly"/"she lifts up her skirt" maybe you can add a text of them stripping themselves. Like "He tugs his trousers and briefs down with one movement, revealing his penis" maybe alongside with new flavour text like "She tugs at her blouse"/"He unbuttons his shirt" or something along the line.
I just like to get an idea of what the npcs wear during an encounter.
Maybe named NPCs get set 'outfits' they can interact with during 'combat' while unnamed ones get randomised ones, since they are random people. Maybe unnamed people wear things fitting to the location you encounter them?
Just an idea.
I merely think we don't see them struggle with their own clothing enough.
I agree NPC clothing doesn't come up often enough as it is. Adding variety to the "he opens his fly/she lifts up her skirt" text would be an elegant way to improve things. Thanks for the idea.
DeleteI mainly use cheats to keep a precise eye on my various stats, esp. purity. If that could be accessed by a separate option than the cheat menu then sure, I'm with locking feats behind cheatlessness.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your thoughts Anon.
DeleteWhat does willpower do?
ReplyDeleteGives you a shot at resisting the stunning effect of pain, and lets you recover from orgasms faster. It also comes up in some events.
DeleteJust wanted to chime in, because I feel very strongly about the Feat system.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely think cheating should lock off Feats. I mean, Feats will never be stronger than cheating anyway, so if you want an aspect of a Feat, just cheat it in. But, systems like the Feats aren't targeted toward people who want to play this game like a giant sex sandbox, but instead who want to use the game's careful mechanics and balance to achieve (or fail to achieve) certain goals.
Feats are a fantastic way to reward someone who uses the game's balance in a successful way. "Oh, but I just use cheats to bypass the Affinity grind" then you have an issue with the way Affinity is balanced, and probably should bring that up now more than ever.
Keep up the good work, I completely agree with the Feat system as is. Figured I'd chime in since you're looking for feedback on it.
Thanks for chiming in. You bring up good points.
DeleteThere are 2 parts to this new Feat system the "achievements"(getting the coins) and then the feats themselves. And yes i have issues with how you(as a player) need to grind seduction(at any level)/skullduggery(at higher levels) and have brought that up in the past, it more seems like peeps use the cheat menu as a way to track the hidden Stats and exact numbers needed to get things that arn't available in the Tabs. And so this block seems like just a hinderance to those peeps and to bug/game testers.
DeleteI like it as a whole(i rallied for it a few updates ago) and want to see it stay ang grow but i don't see why it should be gated. Is it to stop peeps from using cheats? if so then just remove the cheats! Like i said above somewere "players who play it vanilla will still get their "achvo get" satisfaction and those that don't wont miss any content".
There is still a bug with the bathroom goad sex scene. It starts with orgasm imminent
ReplyDeleteThanks for informing me. Wonder if I made a mistake, or if there's more than one bug afoot.
DeleteCan we ever expect an update that focuses on sprites eventually?
ReplyDeleteLike: Variable animal penis sizes (and different sprites overall as I think I remember all animals share the same penis but haven't played in like a lil bit so not sure)
-Custom NPC sprites
-Monster girl/boys having unique sprites or accessories.
-Facial expressions, I kinda wish our character could seem a bit more dominant sometimes, when I went on the less submissive side all I noticed is what looked like eye bags lol compared to the scared meek look but maybe that's just a weird way I remembered it.
I know this is alot and don't expect it all to be simultaneously worked on but its definitely some stuff on my wishlist n hope we can see these things eventually or soon, but do what you wish n good luck in this game! It's definitely one of the best I've played.
This times a thousand.
DeleteI know sprites are a different beast than normal additions but I've been waiting for big and smol peepee's since the distinction came out. Animal dongs would be a nice addition as well.
Thanks for the kind words!
DeleteI'd love to add more sprites. The only thing stopping me is the time investment. I'm not great at art, so getting them looking presentable takes a long time.
This is probably very tiresome, Vrelnir, but I will give my input to this patch as well.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I'll give you my congratulations on another successful installment, you should take the time to congratulate yourself if you haven't already, and crack open a celebratory drink of your choice.
I love clothes, I can't say I love all these clothes, but perhaps it's being a girl or whatever that makes me love playing dress up, but I'm always pleased to see new clothing being brought into the game, and having multiple stores selling them is also something I personally would like to see (Costume store, formal store, casual store, etc) and then the Forest shop could be regulated to 'magical' items. Though that's mostly for flavour I feel, it makes the city feel bigger when you've got multiple stores, haha.
Feats and cheats. I'm not sure there's much I could add that hasn't already been said so quickly. I will say I'm very happy you have started the foundation of (my? our? idk) Feat system, warms my heart to see it brought to life so quickly, I still have that sheet with all the feats saved to my computer, feels like only yesterday. That aside, I can understand the frustration with content being locked away, since people cheat, (like me) to get to new content, or skip the grinding they've done before, I understand that, the game is in a... beta(?) stage at this point, so I'm inclined to agree with them that barring this away during the beta stage is, improper, moreso for you than for us, since to test your content we need the cheat system, and using so we can't access those features, and what might break or bug with them.
That all aside, in the future I would agree they should be locked away in some form, but I purpose that they be locked away with an 'achievement' system (As I might have said before when initally talking about it), so that you would have to unlock the feature in 'regular play' (non cheating) at least once, afterwards, all future playthroughs would have access to it, cheaters could flip a switch, and regular players could spend coins, and either could unlock them naturally by getting the achievement again during play.
I'm not sure how difficult that would be to implement, but I feel it would be a nice middle ground, players would have to earn it, once, but after that, they could use it however they would like (this could apply to clothes in the clothing shop as well)
Finally, girls have 'lewd fluid', I feel this should be represented, but perhaps using a different system then what you have for men, I would like to have a chat in the future when it comes to arousal and stimulation, and work all that out with you- but I can understand that this is an intermediate step, since having men and women working off the same fluid system probably is a little janky.
I'm sorry if my thoughts are somewhat incohesive, I'm a little drunk, but I hope my thoughts got across in spite of it.
Cheers, Vrelnir :P
P.S. I want coins named after me too Dx
I belive "our" is in order.
DeleteAnd what you suggested in the bulk of your statement about the "Feats" system they installed is already the case, as in you can ONLY unlock the "achievement"(getting the coins) with out cheats but can use them with cheats. But my understanding is that all of the "feats"(not the achievments) can be replicated(directly or indirectly) in the cheat menu anyway. You might be talking about activating the feats in-game rather then only at start like they are now though in which case disregard. But i've stated my piece on this above and about the fluid stuff.
I mean in reverse, You unlock feats options with achievements, and you have a set amount of coins to spend.
DeleteIt's not tiresome at all!
DeleteThank you for the congratulations, and your thoughts.
Goading the orphans in the bath scene causes them to immediately orgasm after 1 turn. Not sure if this is intentional or not, but entertaining regardless.
ReplyDeletei was swimming and got to penetrate a dolphinboy , interesting enough he seems a lot like a Dog :d
ReplyDeleteThanks for informing me, and sorry for the bother.
DeleteJust an idea but imo it would be cute to have "birthday events" for the love interests.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Thanks for the idea.
DeleteFirst of all: Thank you Vrelnir for keeping the game going, you're all doing an amazing job with it. I have been following for a long while already and it's getting increasingly interesting. Now, to the locking things out; for me, it's a very simple matter.
ReplyDeleteThe most shared point is that this is a single player game and doesn't affect anyone else and that's why it shouldn't have limitations respecting the cheat menu. This is true in all senses, but it's a call only you, as creator and owner, should make. The other point brings something interesting to the table: by locking up certain elements, you increase the replay value that would look attractive for certain amount of people, i.e: Me.
My conclusion is: Depending on how "finished or advanced" you believe the state of the game is, this could be too early to decide making exclusive elements available only for those who don't use the cheat menu, or, you could just do both by adding the option so people can choose to lock or unlock this interaction with saves, letting everyone pick their own poison. This could culminate with a single, harmless and neat but not overpowered feat or reward exclusive for those with advanced characters/saves that never used the cheat mode.
And again, you're all doing a great work with the game. Keep it up!
Thank you for the kind words. You're very welcome.
DeleteThanks for your thoughts as well. You make good points.
Just an inquiry here, are images still supported on Android versions of 4.4.4? When I stared the game, the game just started listing a whole slew of errors and all of the images didn't load, which I presume would happen to older models. Thanks in advance for any response!
ReplyDeleteOlder Androids can indeed struggle with the code used to animate and colour images. I wasn't aware it could cause error messages though. Sorry for the trouble.
DeleteThank you vrelnir, your work is better and better. Please keep going!
ReplyDeleteIt seems the resturants roof has sprung a leak again.
ReplyDeleteYour mini kimono is damp. Your mini kimono skirt is damp. Your catgirl panties are damp. Your catgirl bra is damp.
The salad is nice, but the smell of Avery's fish soup wafts over and makes you wish you had something heartier. He chats between spoonfuls, stopping now and then to wave at patrons he recognises. They're all well-dressed.
Still getting the bug where an npc will trigger the "breath on your ass" line without it going beyond that. So any encounter that goes that way runs until the npcarousal eventually ticks up high enough
ReplyDeleteAwesome as usual Vrelnir!
ReplyDeleteI've spent a few hours trying to make out how the masochism works, I've looked at the official wiki for help but nothing on this so I'm here to ask if I'm right. I think you only get points into masochism if you are COMPLETELY beaten up (essentially losing) not only is this hard to maintain (especially on higher levels of masochism) but you gain stress & trauma every time too.
ReplyDeleteAlso I think when things that happen outside of encounters that have a +pain I believe that gains a bit of masochism, the best way I can think of if I am right about this is maybe gain masochism points when you are just over the middle of the pain meter. Anything over mid.
All the best.
Makes sense I mean the only time I'm half way hurt is when I'm actively fighting back, when there is damage being done to the mc in consensual encounters or being cooperative in rape encounters I personally haven't had it go over the halfway mark
DeleteIt's orgasm when overwhelmed by pain that gains you points actually, I believe?
DeleteI had a thought of a way to integrate gags blindfolds and binds in a way that they are easier to get, make a store where you can buy single use versions where you can put them on and they disappear from you inventory.
ReplyDeleteNot sure how the monk turned into a nun, but okay. Other than that, the text is somewhat off:
ReplyDelete"You walk over to "Excuse me," you purr. You pretend to lean over to dust a shelf behind Your other hand slips beneath habit. Performing such a lewd act excites you, but does nothing to lift the cloud hanging over you. You need to do something more extreme. | + Arousal | - Stress
The nun doesn't stop you, but does cast a nervous look around the room. There are several other initiates at work. You doubt expected you to take it this far.
nerves dissipate when your hand finds already-wet pussy. You expertly get to work. lies back and moans.
Your skilled fingers make quick work of ejaculates almost immediately. You withdraw your hand and continue dusting as if nothing is amiss. pants beneath you, unable to muster the strength to move."
Hey, not sure if anyone could answer this for me but in the latest update it mentions that it now tracks which NPC takes your PC'S Virginity and i cant seem to find more information about this here or the wiki, if someone could inform me more about this it would be greatly appriceated.
ReplyDeleteAlso, chastity belt reads as 'naked' during police strip-search:
ReplyDelete""You won't get away with hiding your stolen loot in there," the slight man growls. Your arms are bound behind you by the robust man, while the slight man recruits members of the public to assist them. Moments later the two officers and six random members of the public are pulling you and your naked in every direction, trying to get them loose. Next thing, you are on the floor as hands pull at you.
However, the members of the public are far more interested in copping a feel than in genuinely helping: the guy 'pinning your head' is actually just grinding his crotch on your face, you spot the lissome boy groping your small breasts while the unseen person 'trying to remove the naked' is clearly just determined to get a finger up your ass.
Over the next few minutes they make little progress.
Finally they give up, and you climb trembling to your feet.
As the cops scoop up your clothing, informing you and the crowd that they don't have enough evidence to arrest you now, but will be taking your clothes for forensic investigation, all you can feel is relief. It's over. You watch them climb into their car. The slight man blows you a kiss through the open car window.
Incredibly, no one else notices. No one sees it. Suddenly, as the officers disappear around a corner, you realise why. They're all staring at the girl in a naked, standing almost-naked and helplessly bound in the middle of a worked up crowd.
A man grins wolfishly at you. Horrified, you sprint away. | + Trauma | + Stress | + + Arousal"
