Restaurant area remade (0.3.5 preview)
🕑 Added 2022-01-04 15:41:37 +0000 UTCHello guys and gals,
today I want to show you a preview of the new restaurant area.
Since I was really tired of looking at the old restaurant, I have decided to remake it from scratch.
What's new and what will the features be?
- All images are in full 4K (3840x2160) resolution to be able to zoom in (a lot) without loss of quality
- There is space for up to 9 girls at the restaurant now. The "shuffle" button has been removed for this area.
- The restaurant is on a terrace with roofing, so it can be used when there is rain too.
- You have the posibility to join the girls at their table to chat, listen to rumors, etc.
- Even though you can only notice it when looking very closely and when you know what to look for, the girls are sprites and overlayed over the background image. IRay's new "Canvas" render option makes this possible.
- Each girl has one seat where she will always sit. Most seats are shared, so that two different girls will use the same spot. To avoid problems, there is an early shift and a late shift for the restaurant.
This will open up a lot of new opportunities for the restaurant area in general.
Here are some future ideas:
- Personal dinner with just one (or two) girls.
- Evening/Night lighting making use of the lanterns
- Different "backgrounds" depending on the weather or time of day (e.g.: rain, sundown)
- Possibility to go "inside" to fetch something from the buffet with one of the girls.
I hope you enjoy the preview of the new restaurant.
Take care,
Darkhound
EDIT: I have added another image that shows the rest of the girls.

This is soooo great! Can't wait to play the new update!
TeccaNina
Well that just made my day! :)
Darkhound
Me too and thank you :)
Darkhound
A short story told by Amy, apart from that, nothing specific yet. I have written some of the ideas I have in the post above.
Darkhound
I don't want to make it too complicated for now, so no :)
Darkhound
You're lucky, Sara will be a "Main" character :)
MrHHH
I have to say, the old dining room really bugged me. But this looks fantastic!
Koalaton
This is an improvement for sure. Any events or scenes planned for the area? I find I only eat there since everything else is most for the early game.
TeccaNina
I know sheās probably going to be a side character but sheās one of my favorites. Love your work Dark!
hisstoryman
Yes, I got that scene. One of the better dinners I have had, real or fictional. :)
Mr. Pool
Great upgrade from the previous restaurant. Will MC lose affection from the girls on the other tables?
Darkhound
I cannot agree more :) Thanks for the comment.
RicoSwavey
Outfrickenstanding!!! This beats the previous restaurant area hands down...it's not even close.
Darkhound
We already have that. It's the night bar, just without the dancing yet.
Oleg Fedotov
What do you think aboult an idea to add a nightclub (dancing with girls, listening dance music)?
Darkhound
Happy you like it :)
Darkhound
There's already a private dinner with Yvette in the game. Just not at the new location :)
Darkhound
Argh... Don't share the details please ;)
Darkhound
Yup :)
Darkhound
Thank you very much for the kind words. About the new girls. The new Ivy has been introduced already and for the others, only one has been created yet. The introduction will have to wait until I have time to bring her into the game.
Darkhound
I hope you like the new restaurant better :)
Darkhound
Yeah :)
Darkhound
Yes, definitely. Thanks for the comment.
Darkhound
Haha, yeah :)
Darkhound
Thank you. Happy you like the new restaurant :)
Thunderkiss
Wow, this is breathtaking. Darkhound, I play your game to relax, too. Not in just the masturbatory way either, I like the music and scenery as well as the large melons.
hisstoryman
If the game allows private dinners, damn! Somebody shines a blacklight in this joint, it's going to look like a Jackson Pollock painting!
DREWSKY
Ivy makes me wanna touch myself LOL
TeccaNina
Is that Sara I see at the restaurant?? Yes!
ledferrelin
Didn't thought it was necessary to change it... Until now!! Wow, it is so much better. Before it was a stop-some early rumors-go. Now, on the other hand, it is very welcoming, opening many possibilities. Great idea! Have an amazing 2022. May it be your best year to date Darkhound. Pd: Any introductions for the new girls soon? February-March?
Scott Guy
I'll admit, I wasn't a fan of the old restaurant either, but there had to be somewhere to eat. Maybe adding a Room Service option with one of the girls bringing you food (and maybe dessert) in the future would be possible? Thanks again for the outstanding work and much success to you in 2022!
Darkhound
The same that are used at the bar. But some are new with 0.3.2. e.g. Amy, Ivy, Yvette.
franmo
Are theese restaurant exclusive outfits? I'm not that far into the game to be able to tell.
Mr. Phoenyxx
What a bountiful buffet! :D
Kevin Ducharme
Love it!! It feels more realistic.
hisstoryman
Wait! There's a restaurant??? Ooooooh, yes, very nice. I can't possibly understand why I didnt notice it. ;)
Absolutely love it! It looks very real and ambitious - and clearly marks the long way this game has already come. I especially like the idea of chosing a table for a more private conversation.
Darkhound
Thanks. Unfortunately that's also why it takes so long ;)
Darkhound
Thanks :)
Steven Pop
This update looks more and more ambitious. Impressive work
Darkhound
Probably not, since it would mean more renders and also game mechanic changes.
Darkhound
Yup, finally it will be fun to visit the area and you do not only visit to click the "eat" button :)
Darkhound
Sure, maybe Jennifer this time, since Yumiko has been in the inside private restaurant.
Darkhound
Thank you for the nice comment. Holidays were good, but too short (as always). I hope you had some good time too.
Darkhound
Totally agree. The old one really sucked.
Monsieur X
Good update.
Darkhound
Thank you so much for the nice comment.
Darkhound
Check out the last image I have just added. Sara is present now :)
Darkhound
Thanks for the comment. And yes, it's an interesting option. Using canvases doesn't solve all problems, but is a huge step.
Darkhound
Happy you like the improvement :)
Annon
Would the appearance of special characters ever been in the restaurant?
Alexus
Wow! I'm amazed on how you continuously add life to the game. And such an improvement as well. Can't wait for the new update to be launced. Also, "new" Ivy is totally stealing the show! :-p
Excelsus
Looks great. I never liked the original restaurant, only went there to get food. This is a huge improvement. If I would walk onto a terrace like that with so many hot girls staring at me, I'd probably have a meltdown :D
Dispeace
This new area looks amazing and a lot better than the old one. Thanks for the update and I hope you had great holidays ;)
Roger
Your work and ideas just keep one upping each other. I'm guessing for the 'private' dinners, one of the staff girls will act as the waitress as well? Looking forward to more of your work!
Cypher101
Wow thatās such a good idea! Canāt wait to eat AND have my eyecandy with it š
Ted Cogley
That and if it's a sunny day they don't need dress swimsuit or bikinis would work
Darkhound
Many thanks. I was thinking the same.
Darkhound
She will sit left side, same spot as Ivy :)
GordonShock
Hello, name is Gordon, I have a reservation for 10, lol! Absolutely gorgeous and looking forward to seeing it in the nighttime or late PM. The "canvas" option seems like a game-changer, I'll look into it, thanks for sharing this tidbit.
Brianiac
nice! the look of this game just keeps getting better and better
Tobias
Lovely, I like it! But where is my big breasted Aly? ;)
SiJa
looks great...looking forward to having lunch now...lol
