Degrees of Lewdity version 0.5.13.5

This update adds pumpkins. It also adds Kylar scenes, Whitney encounter speech, adds a new room to the temple, reworks the mines, and makes Bailey's thugs an active force in town.

The new Kylar scenes show a glimpse of their past. They'll require the PC find a strange room at the temple, the scriptorium, where old texts are renewed. The PC can also practise calligraphy there. It's a steady way to raise one's hand and oral skills, if you can get in.

Kylar can also get involved in a new Halloween pumpkin carving competition. It takes place in the park on the 30th of October. Tables are set up from the 21st for practice, and there might be other ways to gain an edge.

Elsewhere, the mines have been reworked. They were added as a soft bad end alongside the flats, but they're now much more involved. The guards will expect the PC to get their hands dirty. However, greed has driven them to overstretch, and it might be possible for the PC to do more than just escape.

Back in town, Bailey's thugs now have an anger stat of their own, and will hunt down the PC on the town's streets, intent on dragging them back to Bailey. They'll also inform their buddies if they know of the PC's whereabouts. If you see one, there'll soon be others on that street. The only ways to end the hunt are to fight off Bailey personally, or pay up.

Whitney joins Avery and Robin in having improved encounter speech. The new lines come alongside a new speech system. NPCs should have better memories, and time their comments in a more interesting way.

Bailey has become more aggressive over the last few updates, which I've intended for a long time. Hopefully things aren't too troublesome. Let me know what you think.

Thanks to the all the contributors, including JackmobTV for the mines rework, Reiyu for the new encounter speech system, as well as Juniaki and Jacko for enheartening Bailey's thugs.

Town of Thugs expansion. Designed and written by Juniaki. Additional writing by wilduntammedfluffy. Coding by Jacko:
Bailey's thugs now make themselves useful around town by hunting down players that dodge rent, bringing them back by force if they must.
Added over a dozen randomly occurring thug events around town.
Added thug anger, a new stat that represents how relentless the thugs are in their pursuit of the player. Thug anger increases passively over time while Bailey is looking for the player, or if the player successfully escapes the thugs' attempts to bring the player in.
Added thug traps, triggers that activate when the player is spotted in town by a thug, making the area that the player was in "trapped" and thus much more likely to trigger a thug event. Up to three traps can exist at a time and they disappear after a few hours.
The player's allure increases with thug anger, making the world more dangerous as they continue to refuse paying Bailey.
Bailey no longer takes it lightly when refusing to pay them at locations other than the orphanage. If refused, they now confront you if you enter the orphanage regardless of whether rent is due or not. Their thugs will also continue to look for you in town. The only reliable way to make Bailey lay off for a week is by beating them in a fight.

Thanks to Jacko for the following additions and improvements:
Added a couple of small scenes for when Bailey confronts the player over rent while their waters have broken.
Added new stalking sprites and improved how NPCs are represented during stalking encounters.
Added the bait shop as a valid shop for Gwylan's requests.
Added a recipe tracker to the journal.
Added a reminder to the journal if the player has antiques waiting to be donated or talked about with Winter.
Museum hints have been moved to another spot in the journal in order to avoid cluttering it.
Facing temple punishment in order to renew your chastity vow now also resets the exam timer, encouraging confession as soon as possible.
Named NPC pronouns now appear in applicable feat descriptions if the feat was earned in the current save.
Renamed Night Monster's "Love" to "Interest", to be in line with other non-primary relationship labels.
Renamed prison guards' "Respect" to "Trust", to more easily differentiate it from general prison respect.
Fixed a broken conditional, so Gwylan should no longer ask the player to the cafe if the player has been missing for a long time.

Thanks to JackmobTV for the mine rework:
Reworked and greatly expanded the mine soft bad end.
Passing out on Barb Street now has a chance for the PC to wake up in the mines.

Made the "Thrill of the Chase" trait trigger if the PC either escapes the mansion or makes Avery storm out because of successful traps during the mansion chase event.

Thanks to Reiyu for coding the following scenes:
Added a scene where Whitney tosses milk at PC when socialising on the school green. Written by yuraiacaeli.
Added Kylar's reaction to the love locket. Written by faetouched. Once they witness you wearing it, they might break into the PC's room to peek at it in their wardrobe.

  2. Hi Vrel! Thank you so much to you and the contributors for all your work! I can’t wait to bite into the pumpkin carving event! It sounds amazing, I’m so excited. I’m happy that LI’s are getting so many individual combat lines as well, that’s such a huge undertaking! I was just peeking at the changelog and so many people are working so hard at so many cool things under the hood, it’s really awesome to see how many people have such passion for this. It’s amazing that you built something that so many people care about. <3 I just had two questions, but obviously no worries if you don’t get the chance to answer, I find so many aspects of your game and the world/characters so interesting I just wanna tear into them like a pastry.

    1) I love how increasingly dangerous you guys are making Bailey! Do people in the underworld avoid getting into relationships (romantic, sexual, or platonic) with orphans out of fear of garnering Bailey’s attention? I saw a previous Q&A that had Wren deciding not to approach the PC for a hook-up out of concern over Bailey, so I’m curious if that's a common concern.

    2) There’s a scene at Whitney’s flat where a naked PC and Whitney can greet Whitney’s gang one by one. In the scene Whitney is described as “observe[ing] each newcomer's reaction with amusement, and something more subtle and calculating.” !!!! Great character moment, amazing. What is Whitney looking for in their friends here?
    2.1) If that same scene is played with the PC in undies instead of stark naked, some of Whitney’s friends throw nervous glances at Whitney and the scene outright states they’re scared of walking into a trap. Does Whitney often set traps for their gang? And if they have, have they used the PC as bait before?

    I really do just absolutely love that scene at Whitney’s flat. It’s just so juicy, and there is so much going on under the surface. It makes me a little feral. Thank you again for creating/sharing such a fun and engaging game with us all! And it’s really cool that you do these Q&A’s, I’m sure they take a lot of energy and effort, so I’m very grateful to be able to see some creator headcanons/interpretations and get inspired to play around with all the cool word/character-building.

    1. Hi! Thank you for such kind words. I'm humbled that so many people have such passion for the game, and very grateful. I hope you enjoy!

      1) I'm glad to hear it! People in the underworld indeed avoid getting in relationships with Bailey's wards. Some newcomers don't realise, and are either warned off quickly, or meet a sticky fate.
      2) Thank you for the compliment! Whitney is looking for many things, including surprising reactions, but they're expecting to find out which find the PC particularly attractive. They want to know who are keeping their mitts off the PC out of respect for them.
      2.1) They've set traps in the past, though they try to resist the urge, so people don't get too accustomed to them.

      I'm glad you like the scene. It's no problem at all!

  3. Vrel, thank you so much for your hard work!! I'm so excited for this update, I've been waiting for a continuation of Kylar's storyline for a while and I'm delighted to see this.
    I'd like to ask a few questions, if you don't mind!

    1. What types of characters did Kylar tend to like before meeting the PC?
    2. What type of character does Kylar see themselves in? I assume it's not necessarily yandere characters as they are not that self-aware, but I wonder what their vision of themselves is, and if they would see themselves in something edgy teenagers generally claim to be like.
    3. What type of music do the LIs like to listen to? Even if not genre-wise, a general mood, such as happy songs, love songs, sad songs, etc.
    4. If the LIs were summoned by the player into real life suddenly, and were made aware of that fact, how would each of them react?

    Again, thank you!

    1. It's no problem! I hope you enjoy the update.
      1. It's hard to find a pattern, but it was whoever made them feel secure at a particular time.
      2. It's indeed not yanderes. They see themselves in misunderstood, but ultimately heroic protagonists.
      3. Robin likes catchy, happy songs. Whitney likes bombastic songs with a lot of energy. Kylar likes love songs.
      4. Robin would be scared by the sudden shift, and start worrying about the orphans. Kylar would want to know how to get back to the PC, or bring them here. Whitney would similarly want to bring their gang and the PC over, but failing that, they'd try to build a new gang.

  5. Exciting new update!!! I'm especially excited to explore more of Kylar's parents and temple content as a lore enjoyer 😋 The additions of some Avery events to the gallery is something I enjoy as well (I have many saves just to replay some of my favorite scenes...)

    Speaking of which, I have questions related to Avery...

    1. If Avery is supposedly loyal, why do they still go to the underground brothel? Are they even monogamous?
    2. How would Avery react if they somehow get reverse raped during their tantrum by a stronger defiant PC? Especially if Avery themselves started it? Could they even forgive PC in this scenario?
    3. How would Avery react to having PC who is obsessed with Avery "joking" about locking them in their own basement just so they won't see Avery with someone else in some important party? Or in general, really.

    Thank you, and happy Halloween!

    1. I'm glad you think so!
      1. Social considerations. They're monogamous, but they don't think hanging out there counts as cheating.
      2. They'd tell themselves they were the one in control of the situation.
      3. They might brush it off, and comment on how good it is that the PC values them so.
      It's no problem! 🎃

  6. A Halloween update, so fun! Thank you to you, Vrel, and all of the contributors for all of your hard work! Hope you are doing well and taking care of yourself.

    Just popping in for my two questions per patch! <3
    1. What does Eden think of the demon transformation? Assuming PC only uses him for their needs and no one else.
    2. What would Eden think of a PC who learned to shoot going hunting to take care of him if he was too ill to hunt himself?
    (Apologies, I usually try to use they/them for questions, but I am on mobile and it can be a pain to adjust it)

    Thank you again for this amazing game! I cannot express how much it has been helping me through a very difficult year.

    1. I'm glad you think so! It's no problem at all. I'm doing well and taking care of myself thank you, I hope you are too.
      1. Eden thinks the demon transformation is silly, but they like the PC's high libido, and don't complain.
      2. They'd feel restless, like they were letting the PC down, and worry that the PC was going to run off. They'd acknowledge that the PC was competent, but they'd still prefer the PC to stay in the cabin when possible.
      I'm sorry to hear it's been such a difficult year, but I'm glad the game could help you in any way at all. I hope things improve for you soon.

  7. Aaaaah! Look at all these cool things! I’m nervous (but excited!) to dive into the mines! Just gotta push my superhuman PC to the brink it seems. Seriously, you and the contributors have delivered us such a delicious meal, thank you so much!! It’s so cool to see how much love and effort is put into this game, it’s super inspiring. I hope you don’t mind if I ask a couple of questions, I’ve been so obsessed with everything you’ve built here.

    1) Whitney is such a fascinating, and at times tragic, character. They have such a push-pull quality to them, both internally and externally. They’re also in a vulnerable position, and seemingly aware of that vulnerability. While they do seem to have a level of self-awareness, it does seem to me like Whitney lies to themselves about their motivations and what they want at least sometimes. So my question is, if that’s true & Whitney does lie to themselves, what are biggest lies Whitney tells themselves?

    2) I think it’s been stated that in Whitney’s friend group, they have a close/true friend. If they do, I’m curious how that friend views PC and/or the relationship between Whitney and PC (assuming max love Whitney), or if they have an opinion at all?

    Happy Halloween! Hope your October is festive and appropriately (but enjoyably) spooky!

    1. I'm glad you're excited, and it's no problem at all! You're too kind!
      1) I'm glad you find Whitney fascinating. Whitney is self-aware, but they struggle to accept how they really feel about the PC, and what they want from them. That's not an outright lie, though.
      One of the bigger fibs is telling themselves there's nothing they can do about their situation. Improving things would require help from other people though, which would make them vulnerable, and the lie feels safer.
      2) That particular friend of Whitney's is concerned that the PC is more dangerous than they appear. They see the Whitney looks at the PC, and worry about what that could lead to.
      I hope your October is festive and appropriately spooky as well!

  9. Glad I got to test out the update, still need to do the pumpkin stuff, but the new mines are a welcome change.
    Anyway here’s a couple questions, if you may:
    1) Something I think about often is how often people regulate the PC to a “Gaoler”, with three characters that refer to them that way coming to mind; Kylar, Bishop (‘s hands) and Ivory Wraith. But my interpretation if anything is that the PC could be likened to the “Witch”. Especially within Avery’s Tower storyline. Is this something that’ll be explored in the future?
    2) Will Winter ever receive a school project? I find it quite sad they don’t have one, but I can imagine the reason why is that they’re out of school content is so fleshed out.
    3) While I’m mentioning Winter, will the expedition have an update? There’s so much to learn about the Lake and even more on the Bog.

  10. Pretty cool additions this time around! :o That said, I do hope at some point down the line we could see more non-kylar-related events for Halloween, though. xDc Could be fun to see different LIs having entirely different plans for the holidays someday, overall. Also, really like seeing Bailey's presence becoming bigger in town since a lot of people seem afraid of them. Looking forward to seeing how it affects things.

  11. Hello,Vrelnir.
    I’m looking forward to playing this update.
    Thank you and the entire development team.
    A small question.
    Why does Landry strive for his goal?
    Did something bad happen to Landry in the past, or does Landry’s goal align with someone else’s?
    Or maybe Landry is just a person who once decided to change something in the city.
    Or maybe my assumptions are far from the truth.
    In any case, thank you for the answer.
    Take care of yourself.

    1. Hello. I hope you enjoy it. It's no problem.
      Landry feels their role is vital, and failing isn't an option. Their goal does align with someone else's. They indeed want to change things.
      I hope you take care of yourself as well.

  12. 'Mickey' the Hacker23 October 2026 at 23:29

    Very excited for the new Kylar and Halloween content! I'm also glad to see more of Bailey being an active threat in the game and getting to see more of their power and influence outside of the orphanage walls. I had some questions!

    1. With more of Kylar's family and their past being revealed, I'm curious as to what characters already know or have an idea about what happened and the history around it. Does Bailey know? Does Sirris or any other teacher know? Does anyone in the underground like Landry, 'Mickey', Wren, or Remy know? Does Harper know? I'm sure a lot of this will be explored more in the future, but I'm curious if this is information that others have been curious about, or have been investigating in some way in the past.

    2. What does Briar think about Bailey, Leighton, and Landry? I know that Landry and Briar are rivals in some regard, and I'm wondering where that rivalry came from. Does Landry know about Briar's rivalry with Darryl as well, and if so, what does Landry think about it? Does Leighton or Bailey know?

    Thank you for the update!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I'm glad to hear it!
      1. People have heard rumours, including Bailey, Landry, Mickey, Wren, and Sirris. Sirris thinks the rumours are cruel, but their attempts to investigate were thawted. Remy and Harper know a bit more, but they didn't need to investigate.
      2. Briar thinks Bailey is dangerous, but pragmatic, and therefore not a concern. Leighton's one of their customers, and they don't think about them much beyond that. They're more concerned with Landry, and keep a close watch on them.
      Landry indeed knows about Briar's rivalry with Darryl. They feel sympathy for Darryl, but have their hands full already. Leighton and Bailey also know.
      It's no problem!

  13. Looks like a great update cant wait to play it!
    Quick question: if our town had something like a palm house or botanical greenhouse, who would visit it? I assume Gwylan even if for a moment to get some herbs that he cant get anywhere else, Robin and maybe Sydney if they have free time from all the Temple work.

  16. Woah these updates are being cooked up so fast im almost scared! Thank you to everyone who worked so hard. The mention of finding out a little more about kylars parents sounds very interesting and on the other hand bailey sounds even more frightening than before somehow. How terrifying. I do have a few questions also
    1) does remy have a sense of humor?
    1.2) if yes do you have an example of a situation or just a general thing remy would find funny
    1.3) how would remy react if they were shown a caricature drawing of avery/harper/zephyr/wren
    2) what would remys immediate reaction be to someone tumbling down a flight of stairs infront of them in public or in private or if it were someone they knew personally

      1.2) A picture of anthropomorphised mince pies looking shifty, with the heading "Mince Spies".
      1.3) They would act like it were vulgar.
      2) If it were their stairs, they'd worry about them scratching something on the way down. Otherwise, they'd be irritated at them for causing a scene.

  19. Happy early Halloween! Great work to everywhere on the team and the collaborators, I love the content of the mines and I'm waiting for knowing more about the lore. I'm sorry if my comment is weird, english isn't my first language.

    I only have one request that I'm hoping isn't much of a trouble, but I would really love to have a way of keeping Bailey's piece of the photo he tears, the one with PC, Robin, and someone else. I hope there's any way to secretly keep his piece of the photo,since it's our only item related to him and I love Bailey, he's my favorite character and I always pay him up in time to make him happy lol! 🫶 That would be it, thank you very much for all the good work, and happy holidays!

  20. I'm so excited to play this later when I'm free, BEST DAY OF MY LIFE AND FOR THE WHITNEY NATION!! talking about whitney... i hope you don't mind if i ask couple of silly questions

    1. Indonesian player love to joke that if Whitney were Indonesian, his name would be Wisnu. What do you think of that name?

    2. How's whitney reaction if they find out there's irl person who collect merchs of them and self shipping with them too? (it's me)

    3. If Whitney were to pick an aesthetic or subculture style (like basic, gyaru/gyaruo, emo, goth, scene, preppy etc.), what would it be?

    tysm for the update!

    1. I'm glad to hear you're excited to play!
      1. I think Wisnu sounds like a fine name. Whitney would too, particularly if you told them it were the name of a deity.
      2. They'd try to find them and see the merch for themselves.
      3. They wouldn't want to feel bound to a single style. Though that doesn't mean they don't have one.
      It's no problem!

Just here to report a few things; for some reason NPCs seem to be able to put a condom on PC even when they still have pants AND underwear on? Which I don't think should be possiblefsgfshk also, during encounters in the brothel gloryhole, NPCs comment on the PC lactating when I'm pretty sure they shouldn't be able to see their body?

  27. Vrel, I love you so much—I love your project and have been following it for years. But please, give us Sydney fans something—every day that goes by without any Sydney content feels like being thirsty in hell—suffering at its worst. How much do I have to sacrifice to Elk to get that content? How much do I have to pray at the temple? How much debt do I have to pay off to Bailey? How much lemonade do I have to sell with Robin? Please, Vrel, take my soul if you want, but give us some crumbs of Sydney 😭

  28. Thanks for the update Vrel ! (and Happy Halloween too) I'm so glad we get a little characterization for Bailey's hires. A few questions about development if it doesnt bother you...
    1. Do you think you're done adding NNPCS to the school setting?
    2. How long does it take to write an NPCs "main questline"?
    3. Do you ever see fan-content and think "Wish I came up with that"?
    Thanks and good luck with whatever you're doing!

    ReplyDelete
  29. 1. Do you have any time frame on when we can expect to see new pregnancy content? Either from NPC or animals?
    2. I'd love to see more animal transformation content, whether it's from existing animals (pig, horse, bear, etc..) or new ones (sheep, rabbit, deer, etc..). Any chance we'll get that at some point?
    2B. IMO it would be a lot of fun if we could collect animal transformations and mix/match the parts. Like once our character full transforms, it's in their DNA and those could be chosen from the mirror for appearance- and also it would be fun to have more chimera/mixed stylings, except not only demon mixed, but also animal DNA mixing it up in new/interesting ways (once they're unlocked- and mostly just for fun appearance options).
    3. I'd love more consequences from being heavily promiscuous with random strangers, with no chance from most named NPC, little chance from students, and much heavier chance from glory holes and street thugs. STDs being an extra option for those wanting a higher difficulty would be great, and also add more incentive to use condoms (and would add more clinic content/options, such as seasonal vaccinations, medicines to cure other stuff, etc..). Can understand why some wouldn't want this type of content though which is why I'd like to be an "off by default" option.

  30. Id still love it would be a feature where a random NPC could kidnap the player and enslave them for their own, which the player could escape too.

    If its possible that is

  31. Hi Vrel, good morning! I can't believe version 5.13 is already out so quickly! Also, thank you for bringing us the 450 encounter lines for Rapper Whitney—it's unbelievably hot, thank you!! As a huge fan of Sydney and Gwylan, I have a few questions for you!

    1. If one day a time-space anomaly happened in the town, and the PC invited Gwylan, a young Winter, and the PC to have sex together, how would he react?

    2. What is Gwylan's height?

    3. "Whitney" is more commonly used as a female name. If Whitney is male, would he feel inferior because of his name? Has anyone ever mocked him for it?

    4. If Kylar's parents were turned back into humans, what would their family do?

    5. This might involve spoilers, but I just want to ask: will there be any Sydney content in the next version or the one after that? ꒦ິ^꒦ິ

    6. If Sydney had never met the PC and became the High Priest, how would they do compared to Jordan?

    7. Between the Temple and the PC, which one does Sydney value more?

    If you can see this comment and reply, I would be incredibly grateful. I wish you and the team a wonderful day!

  33. Hiiiii Vrel! Thanks for this game. I've been completely obsessed with it recently! I have a few questions and I'd really appreciate it if you could share your thoughts with me

    1. During Avery's Ascension Ritual, was the PC supposed to die as an ordinary fox? Did Avery choose to ascend together with the PC? If so, does that mean the PC has become someone extremely special in Avery's life?

    2. Im really curious about what abilities each of the Children of Auriga possesses!

    3. About Bailey,Avery,Quinn and Leighton ,It seems they all know each other's true nature. So when they meet one-on-one in private, do they still keep up a polite facade, or show their true selves?

    4. If both sides could benefit from it, would Bailey and Avery get into a relationship?

    5. If they really get together, who would be the top and who would be the bottom!

    have a nice day^^

  34. Hello, Vrel! Hope you have a nice day. Thanks so much for the update from you and your team. I have some question for Ivory wraith and the bishop.

    1. What would Ivory wraith do when there’s no blood moon, and not tracking pc?
    2. How do the bishop views on Ivory wraith?

    ReplyDelete
  35. Oh my god, what is up with the bishop? What sort of "unholy" problem would make bullying a toddler seem like a sane solution?? Socially isolating a baby hmmm yes! That'll stop the evil from spreading!

    Also, less on topic of the new update, a lot of your answers from the previous qna made me curious, so I want to ask a few follow-ups to them:
    a) So, the trio know about the scar, and Avery thinks it's "proper". What do the other two think of it?
    b) What do they think the scar actually is?
    b-1) Alternatively, how would they describe it?
    c) You once said that if the cult heard that pc had a scar they'll put some sort of protective barrier around it, does that mean that the trio is not part of "the cult" in that answer, and just other members?

    Also, the anon's pc in HC questions intrigued me, so I'll ask a few questions of my own
    a) How would pc be treated by IW, and how would that differ if pc was scarred?
    b) How would Fayne and Nona treat a scarred pc?
    b-1) How would they treat a scarred pc they knew was dating Gwylan

  37. Thank you so much to Vrel and the contributors for your work hard work this update! Its very exciting to know that Bailey and their thugs will become much more terrifying this update! Not good for rent avoider PCs...but definitely exciting! I'm excited to see what the mine SBE offers as well, and I cannot wait to see the new and reworked interactions with the LIs!!!

    I have some questions to ask if its alright!
    1. Would you say there would be a chance for Virgo and Auriga to directly interact or communicate with the PC? Similarly to Ivory Wraith maybe? Or would they not but still influence the temple and the cult's actions and motivations narratively? (would that be too spoilery to ask?)

    2. Would you say Virgo approves of the temple's punishment in their name or not? Or would they be indifferent to it?

    3. Would Sydney be forgiving to Kylar if they were to hit Sydney in a moment of anger or jealousy? Like how they would be forgiving to a PC that hit them?

    May you all have a happy halloween! And that no Whitneys egg your houses!

  38. Thank you for continuing to update and so frequent too! I always love getting more lore stuff.

  39. Hello, anon who reported a bug with the 'kylarbed' variable in the last version here! Thank you to the contributor who dealt with it in this update. Unfortunately I think it is still causing issues!

    The variable is now correctly set to undefined after inviting Kylar to the orphanage (usually... see below), but if playing on an older save where it is still set to 0, the player appears to be locked out of both the scene where high lust Kylar sneaks into their room at night and the new love locket scene until they invite Kylar to the orphanage again.

    Also, while the variable is now being set to undefined in most places, it is still being set to 0 on line 1941 of game/overworld-town/special-kylar/main.twee

    Hope this helps!

  40. Will there be any chance of accessing the Mines bad end without passing out in the future? I tried exploring around the flats searching for a way in, but apparently all of the methods requires the player to pass out, which in turn voids the "Long Stressful Challenge" feats.

    Unless there is another way I'm not aware of? I'm trying to cpmplete the museum and I have acquired all of the antiques without passing out, save for the new four antiques added in this update.

    1. sorry, but can we have an option that would lead to fighting Whitney in this event?


      As you walk closer to the gate, Whitney and a few of his friends approach you. He says something to the group that you can't hear. The group keeps him for a moment, looking between him and you. He frowns at them.

      He turns to face you. "Just the slut I was looking for. On your knees."

      (1) Kneel | + Dominance
      (2) Run | - Dominance


      maybe something like "ignore him and keep walking", and one of Whitney's "friends" snickers or something, which causes Whitney to escalate things?
      or just outright punching Whitney would be nice too >< ^^

  43. Hi Vrel, how’ve you been? Hope your work goes smoothly and you stay healthy. Thank you so much for all the updates. I’ve got a few questions if you don’t mind, hope I’m not bothering you. Sorry if anything sounds odd — I’m using a translator.

    1. Does Kylar make moaning sounds during sex?
    2. What do Kylar and PC’s wedding rings look like roughly?
    3. If, many years after Kylar and PC get married, Kylar’s passion for PC fades, what would he do?
    4. Would Kylar let PC touch him indecently in public?
    4a. If yes, what would Kylar do if someone catches them?
    5. I’m curious about the anime-style drawings Kylar makes himself. Are they high saturation or low saturation? Flat colour or painterly rendering?
    6. What sleeping position does Kylar prefer?
    7. If PC won’t let Kylar get close because it’s too hot in summer, what would he do?
    8. How would Kylar react if PC shows him a locket with his photo inside?
    9. How would Kylar spend anniversaries with PC? Will he prepare gifts or surprises?
    10. If he wakes up one morning and PC has turned into a child, what would Kylar do?
    11. If Kylar sleeps with PC and PC tosses and turns wildly, like fighting in their sleep, what would he do?
    12. His tolerance level for tastes: sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and foul flavours.
    13. Would he be willing to wear clothes made for the opposite sex? Would he feel shy about it?
    14. What birthday gift would he get for PC?
    14a. Conversely, on his own birthday, what would he hope PC gives him?
    15.What exactly does Kylar do to his cell‑mates in prison that makes them keep their distance from him?
    16.What is the sweat‑volume ranking for the school LI’s?


    Thanks again for the updates, and to the rest of the dev team too. Wishing you and your team all the best, have a nice day.

    1. Hi! I'm not Vrel, but I've seen similar questions before and remember the answers, so if you don't mind, I'd like to answer (Vrel, please correct my answers if I'm wrong).

      3. Kylar will probably never lose his passion for PC.
      4a. As far as I remember, Vrel said that Kylar would react depending on PC's reaction (this answer was to the question "What if Bailey caught PC and Kylar having sex at the orphanage?").
      6. Kylar enjoys being the "little spoon" with PC. His sleeping position without PC can be read in-game in their room at night.
      8. This scene was added in this update. I won't spoil it!
      9. Kylar would like to recreate their first meeting with PC the way they remember it.
      13. Kylar will do this for PC.
      14. What they think PC wants most.
      14a. Kylar will be happy with anything from PC. Vrel once said that if PC gave them virginity, they would faint with happiness.
      15. Vrel wanted to leave this vague.

    3. With each update, the game seems to be getting harder. Bailey becoming more intimidating fits their character, but I'm a little worried that the game is becoming too difficult from the player's perspective!😅 I've heard that Bailey might eventually start visiting Black Wolf's and Great Hawk's homes to collect money from the PC, but personally, I hope that update never happens😂 When the PC lives with either of them, it feels like they're living somewhere completely cut off from human civilization, so it would feel strange for another human to show up there. Plus, the PC's life is already restricted, and they can't enjoy the life of a normal human being, so I feel like they're already paying a price just by staying there and avoiding Bailey's collections!

    4. I think what this game needs is an actual difficulty curve over time. Right now the game is known for becoming an multi-bad-end despair loop for beginners, only to then become a complete joke (at least prior to recent buffs) once the player gets past that initial hurdle.

      I’ve seen Vrel mention eventual plans for the town’s danger to ramp up over time. I think once that is implemented, the initial starting point should be LESS dangerous than what we currently have. How the game is currently (after these buffs) is how hard the game should get eventually, but I share your concerns when it comes to beginners.

    5. Oh no, I added question 7, but it ended up in the middle of the text for question 6!😱

    6. I'm just an anon but vrel actually did answer these questions in the previous blog post on september 6th! I'll just copy-paste their entire reply below:

      Hello! It's no problem, I'm glad you like the new additions! Bailey is indeed more dangerous. We were careful not to make Bailey's new powers unfun, with the journal keeping track, and the option to buy everything back at once. You're right to be concerned, and we'll continue to be careful!

      1. I'm glad you liked it. Choosing the PC's sexuality isn't planned, but I haven't thought about it much really. I've always been more concerned with the player's sexuality, hence the gender sliders. Thanks for your thoughts though.
      2. I thought you were asking me to remove cream buns at first!
      I'm not against further adjustments of course, but I broadly think the money rebalance improved things. Cream buns remain a very good earner, but you're right it takes a lot of setting up to squeeze the most out of them.
      3. I'm pro a way for a PC and NPC without a penis to impregnate each other if people would like it.
      4. They'd like it.
      5. They'd agree, sarcastically, then insult the PC.
      6. I'm not familiar with mesugaki! They might like it if they're more fun to tease and bully, though.

    7. Wow! Thank you so much! I don't know why I can't see Vrel's replies!😂

  45. Hey Vrel! I was too late asking questions last post, hope it's ok to ask here again.
    A) Why is Avery against certain crude/lewd stuff (if I recall correctly, they need convincing about sex toys, and the otome game Q&A also has Avery against it) but is perfectly fine engaging in lewd behavior that could reflect poorly on them (many in game examples, like walking PC around the neighborhood naked)?
    B) I find the prom scenario discussed in the previous thread fun, and you already said Avery would refuse going, thinking it's a joke. What if PC said something like "ok I guess I'll go with Robin as friends instead"? It's still not technically presenting Robin as a love rival, but Robin is still in the picture as a viable alternative.

  47. Hi Vrel! Thank you so much for all your hard work. I really love this update!!
    I have one small request, and I hope you don't mind me asking, but would it be possible to keep the relationship panel interface the same as it was before? I like being able to collapse and expand the panel, but when it's expanded, some of the text, including the stats, gets cut off outside the boxes and becomes unreadable.😭 I can check the stats by collapsing the panel, but there's no way for me to see the Opinion of the Player no matter what I do. 🥲

  48. Hey Vrel! Great work as always! You people have been on fire on the last updates. I love Robin so I hope something is coming their way at some point! On that point, what do you think would be Robin's favorite anime or book?

  49. If investigating Kylar's new stuff involves the Temple, do we have to join the Temple to get the content?

    1. yeah, you'll have to get access to a certain room, and it seems to be impossible if you're not part of the temple

  50. Hi, Vrel! I haven't had a chance to check out all the new content yet, but I'm really glad Bailey has become a more active obstacle, and Kylar's new quests are very intriguing!

    I also have a few questions:
    1. What would today's Kylar say if they could talk to their younger selves, before the turning point in their lives? (before their parents turned into monsters)
    2. How would the younger versions of Kylar react to their older selves?
    3. How would the younger versions of Kylar react to the relationships they developed with PC in the future?
    4. If Kylar's parents had become human, what would they have thought of Kylar's obsession with PC? I’m wondering what they would think about PC, about Kylar’s behavior, and whether they would shield Kylar from PC or would they want to bring them together?

    This isn't a question, but a suggestion: as far as I remember, a webcam and a computer for PC are planned, so it would be great if PC could earn more money in seductive outfits or costumes. Perhaps, to be more effective, the PC would need to have multiple costumes to surprise viewers on every stream. Currently, costumes are only used for Halloween, although they have great potential for role-playing. I'd also like to cosplay Kylar's favorite anime character to tease them.

    That's all the questions! I absolutely love this update! You and your team have done a fantastic job. It's great that with each update, the world of DOL is becoming more and more alive.

  53. hey vrel! thanks for the update
    if the pc hadn't been interrupted, would any of the divine tfs have been able to copy even a little bit of the text?
    (assuming yes, what would be the reaction to that)

  54. Hi Vrel! Thanks for the new update! I have a few questions I’d like to ask.
    1. Is there any way to improve the Whitney event where they go to the mall with PC to pick out clothes for them? I mean, so that not only old clothes but also new ones can be selected in this event. It’s just that so many beautiful clothes have come out recently, and in this event it’s always the same thing that gets selected, and it gets tiresome
    2. are there any plans to add new clothes for male PC?
    3.will there be any new school-related content? for example, a new school project or a new stage play?
    Thank you for your answers, and happy Halloween!

    1. Hello, Vrelnir! Thank you for the new update!

      Is there a way to avoid dating Alex?! I'd like to just stay friends with Alex, but even if I reject Alex, we end up becoming lovers anyway. Is there a way to turn down Alex's confession?
