Left Hand Magic - Build 3 ($5 Patron Release)
🕑 Added 2022-05-07 02:47:54 +0000 UTC*Update - Very minor patch 3.01* There's now an attached zip file with a fix for the minor(ish) bugs Bababbak helpfully reported. Just replace the WeekTwo.rpy and WeekTwo.rpyc files in the 'game' folder with the ones in the download and it will fix the bugs.
Whew. I could almost swear this build was cursed or something. I thought I was going to have to push it back again when I got a call that I needed to go rescue my parents from the ER while I was testing. Thankfully, it was nothing serious(a kidney stone). I only had to mount a rescue operation because my mother can't drive at night because of a vision issue.
Regardless! Despite the delays! Build 3 is here! And...I'm actually pretty pleased with the build too! There are 14 new 'scenes' included, 6 of them animated, and each of the animated scenes are two-stage animations. Meaning there are a total of 12 new animations. All but one animation I'm happy with (why does that seem to always be the case?). And I'm generally pretty pleased with the progress made for each character, in getting them better defined and breathing some personality into them. Even if it's still early days yet, relatively speaking.
Aside from that single animation stage that I've added to my eventual 'redo this' list, there are two non-critical things I'm not happy with. The first is that I didn't manage to find the time to get Cheats working. That's annoying, as this was the first build where not getting the stats right could actually have you missing some significant content without realizing it. Though, so far, there's only a single point at which that's the case (I think?). I'll have to try to prioritize getting a cheat system working in Build 4 >_<.
The second issue is a little bit more concerning, as it's a fundamental oversight I made in my basic design, and I haven't figured out what to do about it yet. Specifically, I realized during testing (much too late to address the issue right now), that with the way I currently have everything structured...it's possible to skip content for a character. To, essentially, raise their relationship score high enough in week 1 to access week 2s content, without having done all of their week 1 scenes. Technically this is a case of working as intended, as I wanted to avoid locking people into one route too early. What I didn't consider, was that this might make things confusing if the player skips a scene...whose content is important to other scenes later on. Oops? I've got an idea how to fix it, but it's going to be a fundamental change to a core system, which isn't something I can do quickly. We're still early enough in development I can do it, but it will take a few days to do the overhaul. So, next build maybe? Assuming I don't figure out a better option. Not fully happy with my only current plan to address the issue. For now, be aware that it's an issue, I guess...
Now, enough rambling!

Thanks for the bug report! I'll look into it tomorrow (well, later today), so that I don't forget about it. Probably a copy paste error from when I was editing things, from the sounds of it.

Oh also it didn't show a dom increase icon, the value increase works though. Might also be becuase of the dark background, that i didn't see it.

Hey, i've found a minor bug in the let's call it Trix dom route. *Spoiler Ahead* After you make her suck the dick at the glory hole, there is a scene that slipped two dialogue panels to early, it says that "after you showed Trix home..." and in the next dialogue panel you are at the club again.
