Daily info dump #2

Not too much to note today. Continuing along, cancelled some other projects so I can focus more on this over the weekend. If I have time, I'll redo some of Emily's sizes. I'm not entirely happy with how she looks. I might do a size chart if I'm able to.

Here's an interesting arti...

And now for something completely different.

So here's something unrelated, but I thought people might still enjoy.

This was originally going to be a part of a halloween anthology, but I didn't have enough time to get it done. So I repurposed a couple of pages of this one into this story (the original story had the girlfrie...

New characters: Personality traits

So it's about time I started organising this stuff. We've got 7 characters that I've written so far, but I want to hear your opinions. I'll give a quick overview of each character and their personality, so if you feel like a particular sort of character is missing, let me know below! I'll put all...

Daily info dump #1

About time I started keeping everyone in the loop. It's not fair to you guys for me to not provide information. 

Just a quick life update, skip to below if you don't care.

I've been running around trying to sort out things with my government, so I've been heading from place to pl...

An unexpected delay.

So unfortunately, some rather unpleasant stuff happened in my life last week(I won't bore you with the details), so things are a bit delayed.
Things are back on track now though! I'm resuming work on the dating sim and will be aiming to get some more social stuff out ASAP.

I've decided a...

Update 0.15

EDIT: There's been a little confusion, but that's ok! I'll try to be clearer in future. This is more of a half update, hence why it is 0.15 rather than 0.2. It's mainly to show off the new mechanics that will be in the game. The complete update, 0.2 should come out shortly. I just wanted to show ...

24 hours to go!

I'll be doing one last all nighter to finish up, then you (finally) get to see the next update.

It will be a little light on dialogue, and with 0 polish, but a lot of the major mechanics are now in place! (This update was always supposed to focus on the mechanics first anyway, po...

Updates overview!

Just a quick primer on what I plan to do with future updates:

*Skills update:

Will let the player learn new skills and have skill related dialogue options. Also introduces two new girls, Flora and Roxanne.

*Money update:

Will expand work a little bit, the player...

Thanks patreon.

let me know if something goes weird with payments guys!

3 days!

Alright, so the month ends in 3 days and I'm really hoping to get the next update out by then. Even if it isn't 100% complete, I'd still like to release what I've got so far, and just fix things up in a little mini update.

After this one is done, I'll do some posts on the next update, which...

Survey Rush!

 So I want to do a quick check of how important certain features are to people in this next update.

Basically, how much time do you want me to spend on certain things? These will all be separate surveys as I want to gauge people's opinions on each item individually. This way, I can foc...

Survey Rush #9: Secrets

Should I put any secrets/hidden stuff in this update? I can't be too specific, but they might include things like, hidden recipes or secret ingredients, or possibly special gift items that you can find.

Survey Rush #8 Cooking Art

So. Cooking Art. Basically, do you want art of the food to be in the game right now? After you've baked cookies, or cooked dinner, do you want a quick picture showing the food you've produced?

Survey Rush #7: Cooking Mechanics

This is Cooking mechanics! How in depth should they be initially? These will include the ability to learn new recipes, make food items as gifts, invite girls around for dinner and attending cooking classes. All of this will be in the update regardless, I just want to know, how detailed should it ...

Survey Rush #6: Character events

This is character events. Events that trigger when you interact with a character that go beyond normal conversations, they only ever occur once, when conditions are met and give a bit more insight into the characters. How important are these right now?

Survey Rush #5: Relationship events!

This is relationship events. Events that trigger when the player grows closer to a girl, eventually getting to a point that she's "interested" in the player (though at this early stage, not quite going out with them) How important are these events to you and how much detail should they have?

Survey Rush #4: General Dialogue!

This one is general dialogue. Just regular conversations with the girl. If you've played 0.1, then you'd know how repetitive it can get. Is it important that each girl has a lot to say right now?

Survey rush! #3: Character sizes/weight gain events

This one is Character sizes and weight gain events. How important is it that the characters have lots of different sizes and events related to those sizes?

Survey Rush! #2: Character Expressions

 This one is character expressions! How important is it that characters have lots of expressions?

Survey Rush! #1: Backgrounds!

This one is backgrounds. Basically, how important is it that backgrounds look complete and polished. They will be eventually, but how important is it for this next update?

All nighter time!

So I'm really sick of the lack of progress on this update. I just want it done ASAP!

(In retrospect the navigation system, inventory system, workplace and cooking are all big enough for an update on their own, so this update has like 4 major features in one.)

So ...

Screenshot time!

So some have been asking me for screenshots of the game as it develops. I'm happy to oblige, but this is what it looks like 90% of the time. A mess of stuff that doesn't actually fit on the screen. Or do what it's supposed to. :S

As you can see, the inventory system doesn't want to cooperat...

Should the player gain weight?!

So a thought occurred to me. While practising cooking, the player will probably end up eating a fair bit of food. Should the player also be able to gain weight? (This would effect how different girls see the player character, and how they interact with him)

If people like this id...

Update Notes.

Just a quick summary of what I've done.

Just finished all of Chloe's artwork (Though I may need to draw another couple of expressions if need be)

Finished the writing for the work introduction (I still need to copy it into the game script though!)

Tomorrow I'll be dra...

One All Nighter Down!

And still not as far along as I hoped. Sorry if this doesn't make a lot of sense, I've been up for about 30 hours now, but I'll try to be as clear as possible.

It's only fair I give you guys a clear update as to what I've done, and what needs to be done for the cooking update.

Testing a new hosting site!

Ok, new link, let me know if you need a mac version:

Alright, as Alf Vender and Gooboo said, you'll need to copy the link and then p...

Grace Hypno Bonus (Concept Art)

Another concept art sort of sketch. The idea is that the player can find weird objects that transform the girls, either physically or mentally. In this case, the...thing on the table has hypnotised Grace into becoming a fat, lazy slob. I'm hoping to add this sort of story arc around the date upda...

Grace: Before and After

So Grace won the last character poll, so I though I might do a quick before and after sequence of her. I may have used this one to practice my anatomy a little ;P

(also, we get to see whether patreon will delete my post cause of nudes)

How should the next update show up?

So I probably won't have 100% of the content ready by next week, so my question to you is, are you happy with waiting a week or so for the first major update? Or would you rather get an update with some of the content next week, with the rest being added over the next few weeks after that?

...

Sorry about the lack of news!

I know it's only been a couple of days, but I still like posting something everyday if I can.

I've been sick, so I'm a little behind (only a few days worth though).

I'm not sure when the next update for the game will come out, so I thought I might do a poll for it and find out what yo...
