A much-needed update on the development of the next version - Censored
🕑 Added 2020-09-20 00:18:14 +0000 UTCHey there! As per the new Patreon rules, Public posts going forward will be written without any kind of NSFW content. The previous post has an uncensored changelog, but it is only available to Patrons to make sure I adhere to the rules.
Coding-wise, the goalposts for the next version, v0.1.2, are as such:
- More enemies. Tentacles and Infected Likurieris enemies are coming in the next update and they will require different actions through which they can win the fight against your character, so the coding side is about developing traits that make them unique, for example Tentacles will also be immune to teasing, but Infected Likurieris will not.
- The addition of an Outfit Shop for the Market inside The Village.
Art:
- Loss Scene drawings for both Tentacles and Infected Likurieris enemies.
- At least one scene for the Blackmailer Event. I will first draw a static image, as you've seen so far, then if we're lucky and I manage it in time I will make an animation from it that has four versions, each of them displaying depending of the speed in the current mechanic of that scene.
- At least five new outfits. Some of them are already done, but only the previous post contains attachments for them.
- At least two new hair styles.
- Now, depending on time, we'll see how much more I can do on this side.
Writing:
- Blackmailer Event. DONE ✔
- Three new shower events. One is done, the second one is half-way through.
- Three new quests.
- Alien Bar Dialogues with the bartender. The bartender will tell you more about their culture and he has one more purpose, that of letting you know about additions to the village.
- Reactions to clothing. So, depending on your outfit, I plan for this release to contain more reactions.
- More dreams if I have the time. Dreams are more closely related to a deeper story plot which will be more thoroughly explored in later versions. Your choices matter in the long term.
UI:
- A top bar showing up only when time is useful, such as when moving from location to location. It will not show during linear quest sequences because it would take unnecessary space. DONE ✔ (up in the screenshots)
- Portrait that reflects your avatar (no more placeholder). DONE ✔ (up in the screenshots)
- More to come if I see them or the need for them.
Bugs:
- Renamed image assets so that they will show up correctly on itch and Linux. DONE ✔
A revision on the Patreon tiers is coming along, with an update on the summary dev log image. The changes are:
- $1 Patrons will get access to older drawings in future builds, with lighter censoring on the newest drawings and much smaller versions of them so that they won't look too big on smaller resolutions. In addition to this, 1-week early release in future builds.
- $5+ Patrons will get access to the newest drawings and animations of each of the future builds. In addition to this, 2-weeks early release in future builds.
- $10 Patrons can suggest hair styles, outfits and scene ideas that they would like to see pursued in the game's future builds. I will consider every suggestion and if I'm not swamped with writing/drawing/coding and so on I'll take my time to discuss any of these suggestions on Discord.
The intention behind this revision is that, even though the idea of censored images isn't too popular with a few of the f2p players, I feel the need to reward those who contribute to the project in one way or another. Biggest artist creators out there lock most of their content behind $5-7+ paywalls, and that's just the content for that month.
I hope you will like these changes and know that, more than ever, I am driven to put in all I have into making Malevolent Planet a game that will reward you not only in the SFW kind of entertainment, but also the NSFW kind. 😉
