Important! The Next Game - Poll 1!
🕑 Added 2021-05-16 22:14:04 +0000 UTCOkay! Here we go! As I know I've mentioned several times recently, Chastity Quest is actually nearing its completion. There are only 2 more planned updates for CQ (with the possibility of a half update if I can't quite squeeze it all into 2), meaning that there are only about 3.5 months left on that game. Which means...
*insert drumroll here*
...I need to start seriously planning for the next game! It might seem a bit early for that, but the truth is that I want a fair bit of feedback from all of you, and I don't want to overwhelm everyone with a bunch of stuff to read and polls to vote in all at once. That said, there are a couple of decisions that I'm not putting up for vote. The only things I have set in stone about the Next Game are the following facts:
1)The next game is going to be a more traditional VN, rather than the pseudo-open world RPGs that are Chastity Quest and Haven's Port. Making two of those at once was a terrible mistake, and Haven's Port is going to be ongoing for AT LEAST another year. Don't worry, though, my version of a Traditional VN isn't likely to be very traditional. No bullshit hackjob 'long lost family friend' coming to live with his 'landlady,' crap from me, thank you very much.
2) No fantasy setting. That's it. I don't even care much which other type of setting. Just...not more fantasy. Super burned out on fantasy. The most likely settings would be either Science Fiction or Near-Cyberpunk-Future.
----------------
Now, I don't want to drag this out so long that none of you read it. So the last point to make is this is just the first of a number of polls that will be run about the next game. And this one is mostly a demographics thing. Essentially what I need to know is thus:
Why Are You All Here/What Do You Most Like?
I've gotten a lot of followers/patrons from many places...and at this point I have very little idea what is drawing the majority of you to my work. There are a number of unusual things my games focus on, after all. So this poll is to help me establish what you all are really into. I'm going to leave this open so that you can vote for multiple things. But, please, if you do vote for multiple things, I would deeply appreciate it if you make even a short comment prioritizing them. Even better if you leave more detail about what you do and don't like, even if it's something not on the list! Short of being a complete asshole, there is no wrong/bad feedback here. I just want to get a good feel about what all of you like in current games and want to see in new games.
*Edit* Dom/Sub content would be included under 'General BDSM content.' I normally focus on Bondage, Dom/Sub, and Roleplay for BDSM content, not actually being very comfortable with the actual Sadism/Masochism SM portion.
One final note - I'm opening this up to everyone, even the public, but I will be breaking down results apart after it finishes and Patron opinions will be given more weight. Not to say I won't listen to ALL opinions, just that making sure my current patrons are happy with any new direction is a major priority for me!

Not really the right post for that. However, I can tell you that I will be releasing a compressed version of the game (using jpg compression) with the next release (at roughly end of month) as well as the regular version. I won't step down the image quality on the core version using compression, as using extremely high quality renders was a promise I made for Haven's Port.

I'm here to ask you to use webp for Haven's Port because 4MB per image is massive, lol.
