Release - Alpha 5.0.16
Added 2017-10-19 01:23:07 +0000 UTCSurprise! Alpha 5.0.16 has been released early and is ready to be decimated by you fine fellows. This is an early release, not quite ready to be called Alpha 5.1, and I'm looking for help testing the new systems in the game! Please report any and all bugs and oddities HERE so I can keep a running log. Thank you all, now on to the notes:
Alpha 5.0.16 - Patreon Test Build
- Stats have been removed from the game
- New dialogue display has been added to the game to help clarify speakers in conversation chains
- New arousal system. You now have 4 stages of arousal now (Not Horny, Horny, Very Horny and Uncontrollably Horny) which can impact the choices you have available in various scenarios. Different gender states and wardrobe options can affect your base level of arousal
- The wardrobe has been added to your bedroom, allowing you to change clothing
- New multi-directional player transformation system has been added to the game. Certain events will push the player towards a new gender state, with changes reflected at night during the dream sequence. TF options unlock after TFM-1 incident on 9/6
- New random event system. Events can occur at home and at work once a day at each location. Unlocks after TFM-1 incident on 9/6. Currently 6 events at home and 2 at the office
- New reaction sequence added to home and office when player transforms
- New reaction sequence added to office when John transforms
- New event on 9/4 with Diana at end of the day explaining finances
- Most events are still "gender-boolean" and only check for which genitalia your character has. This will be expanded over time
Under the Hood:
- Random events have a 60% chance to trigger and only trigger at certain times of day
- Chat events with Dakota have been disabled for the this build
- You can explore her room when she's not in it, though there's nothing to find. You can see the system in action though
- You can read books in your room to trigger transformations for testing. You can also increase your arousal and unlock clothing
- Transformation System - You need 50 "points" to transform. Standard events give 3-7 points towards a transformation. Reading a book gives 13-17 points towards one. There's a priority system in place to determine a transformation in the event of a draw. I've enabled the option to decline a transformation, which will reset the current point value of the transformation that would have occurred.
- Once a transformation does occur, all point values are reset
- Going to bed wearing certain clothing gives a small point boost towards a given transformation. For example, as a male, you'll get +2 towards Trans and Sissy transformation for each piece of "Girly" clothing you're wearing
- If you do NOT trigger a transformation after going to sleep, but you do have points accumulated, you'll get a status indicator in the sidebar hinting at what gender state you're working towards
The Downloads!

Comments
Heya! Earlier today I posted a 5.0.17 update that fixes the income issue. You're right as to while drinks aren't showing up in the Commons, though I may rescind this change and only apply the 10x rates to items outside the company, such as the impending shopping mall. Alternatively, and more likely, I'll move the scene where Penny goes over the budget with you to your first meeting with her, rather than the first time you make a serum. For now, the $10 for John's beer is a bug.

2017-10-20 06:51:32 +0000 UTCI like the new relationship display. It's a lot more easy to understand and will certainly be helpful in tracking progress with people around the office. You could also add an "Office Mojo" (it doesn't have to be called that) slot to track your reputation at work. I also like the update on your TF and arousal over your picture. Gives me a good idea where I'm headed. I can't wait to see the content for the different arousal levels. I'm having an error as a male/male dominate. It seems that I'm not getting any funding at the beginning of the week. It seems to be happening for my female/female bimbo too. Also, the options to dose people has disappeared from the Commons for my Bimbo... wait, no, I think that has to do with the new 10x price of everything. I also noticed that for my male dominate it only costs $10 to get John a beer from the commons. I've dosed John once at this point.
2017-10-20 03:33:14 +0000 UTCRandom Events are in "testing state", in addition to there being a very small pool of them at the moment. In the proper release, the chance to trigger an event will drop to ~25-30% as opposed to the 60% it's at now for testing. You have a 1/6 chance to get panties, and a 1/2 chance to get a vibrator. Once we're closer to the intended event pool, there should be a lot more variety. I put the books in because I haven't implemented many "natural" ways to shift your gender. I probably didn't do a very good job with those books, and will take another look. There's not a direct path between Sissy and Bimbo, as I felt the Shemale state felt like a needed transitional state between the two. It's something I can explore though, as I see the sense behind it.

2017-10-19 15:22:55 +0000 UTCMaking your sister go down on you with MCS leads to a disappearing link when you click to go upstairs, that's a dead end. Multiple missing images. Day out with Penny is mostly an error. As are all meetings with Chris. Many, many conversations are bugged. Your earlier post tells us that you knew that so I won't get into it. The tasha vibrator event repeats a lot, I seem to be collecting many vibrators. I am cornering the market! There doesn't seem to be a way to go farther than sissy once you become a sissy from male. Could be wrong, but I have done a lot of sissy shit and sissy seems to be the end. The random events taking up a time segment turns them into a burden on game play. They very often block your ability to do things that require specific time-frames like dosing your mother. This game has a short timescale and losing a quarter of your day to adding another pair of panties to your collection doesn't "feel" like fun. Bimbo transition dead-ends the game when you go to the kitchen. The game is missing a sissy bimbo transition. Not sure if that's deliberate, can't investigate bimbo any further. It's a hot mess, but it's absolutely great. These mechanics will be awesome as the game grows.

2017-10-19 12:32:14 +0000 UTCSo, theres a wierd text bug with going out with Penny on a weekend. Theres some weird text when getting coffee from mom, cant remember if it included kissing or not. Theres a game breaking bug with Dakota where if you bring her along the path long enough that you can use the serum to "go down on you", it breaks the game (if back was disabled). When you click the link to continue nothing happens, the link disappears and youre still in the same creen with nowwhere to go.

2017-10-19 07:52:13 +0000 UTCQuenn, the size of mattress between a Tweln and a Klong. That event is actually a placeholder that a whipped up just to make sure I could do it and wasn't going to actually stick, lol. Thank you though, report all the things.

2017-10-19 05:43:43 +0000 UTCSmall bug on the sister's room - bed page: Your sister has a QUENN size bed that she doesn't do a very good job of making. Should be queen. Will update if I see more, but this one bugged me real bad for some reason >.>

2017-10-19 05:36:24 +0000 UTCI was thinking about that yesterday, along with full image toggles. I'll see about working that in as it shouldn't be too difficult at all.

2017-10-19 05:07:01 +0000 UTCwould it be alright to add a toggle for the protagonists photo for chat?

2017-10-19 05:04:25 +0000 UTCYep, that's a bug, thanks. Those particular errors will be the most common, so please report them as you find them.
