Entrancing Bonus Dungeons! Total Progress Report - September 2023
🕑 Added 2023-09-07 22:47:42 +0000 UTCTime for one of these already? There's so much I want to do and so little time to do it all. I guess that's just how it goes with these projects!
The Capture Games
Steam release drops next week! I might do a little guide like I did for the itchio release to help people who are frustrated by the beginning of the game figure some of the more cryptic parts out faster. Other than that, I might make a DLSite version (I have to go and censor a bunch of stuff including the gameplay trailer, so it's kind of a pain).
The biggest thing for the Steam launch is getting in there with positive reviews! If you plan to pick it up, please give it a positive review. While it has done very well on itch, the reviews have been kind of rough in terms of people leaving 1* no comment reviews.
Lustfall
This is the big meat and potatoes of my work these past few weeks. Once I clear this last tax payment next week, it's big time commission fiesta for Update 9! It will still be a bit before I can get it out, because I am finishing one bonus dungeon and have ANOTHER bonus dungeon to work on after that! (and that's before I get to think about the Update 10 stuff T.T)
For the first bonus dungeon, the heroines will find themselves in the Monamor Casino better known as the Trance Trickhouse! The owner of the casino, a mysterious woman known as Vale, manages to trap our heroines, using her mesmerizing powers to transform Gwen into a bunny girl. The four must travel to the end of the casino in order to change her back and stop any changes from becoming permanent!
(Now that I think about it, it kind of reminds me of Jade from DQXI)
There will be special rooms that you must send in one heroine at a time to try and solve. The goal is to get to the magic circle to power a portal in the main room. Stepping on the magic circles will send you back to the entrance and passing through a "mind web" will entrance you, slowing you down for a limited time. When time's up, you become completely hyp*otized and the next heroine will have to try!
You'll eventually get your party members back, but there may be side effects... Hmmm....
This dungeon will also introduce a new variant of the Hyp*osis side effect, "Hyp*osis (Greater)"! Creative, I know. Thanks!
Not only is this new side effect harder to dispel than its lesser counterpart, it also comes with some more interesting changes! At the start of the turn, each heroine will use a random attack from a special poll of sexy moves created for this. The effects vary from healing an enemy with a hot make out session, to binding a random party member! Fortunately, items that remove the regular version of this will also remove this version, and it will go away after battle.
The second BONUS dungeon will involve an ocean prison that got cut off from the rest of Heartlandia... until now! Suddenly, the portal to the prison becomes active again and the heroines are tasked with investigating. Not everything is as it seems, because the prisoners can possess the heroines if they're not careful, taking them over temporarily in order to free themselves.
I would still love to get that Kickstarter up and running, I've just been doubling down on these extra Lustfall dungeons to ease the pressure a little bit. I also want to do a gameplay trailer like I've done with all of the other games before I kick things off. It's not my favorite thing to do, but I might as well get it done. More info will be available when I get closer to actually doing it. >.<
Hanaja's Body 2 in One
With Lustfall, I haven't had the time to work on this too much. I'm letting some mechanics stew in the ol' brain cavity for a bit to add some extra spice to the experience. I will have to work on it soon, which means putting Lustfall off to the side again (assuming this Kickstarter thing doesn't work out). The plan is to start working on it in earnest starting the first of October at the latest.
Other Stuff
I've worked a bit with Daz Studio to see what kind of options it gives me for future projects. I know the appeal of 3D looking graphics are big, and if it's something that I can do myself, it does help with budgeting. That being said, I would have to dig deep for cheap/free resources that look good. It seems like you even have to pay for hair styles... That being said, it's just something I spent a few hours fooling around with. Nothing too noteworthy.
Something a bit bigger, however, is that I finally finished the erotica I started on last summer. It's 7799 words, and could use a few look-overs before it's "done-done." The question is how to sell it. The OG plan with Gumroad was to publish stuff there, but the algorithm suuuuuuucks, so I need to find someplace else that likes spicy literature. Maybe itch, but it's not interactive so I don't know how much that's pushing things with them.
As you can see, I have a lot of stuff to figure out, and not a lot of time or coffee to do so. Speaking of coffee, it's time for another cup, so I'll leave things off here for now. Thank you again for all of your wonderful support!
Stay kinky~
