Steam curation
🕑 Added 2021-10-14 15:21:51 +0000 UTCSo, I spent some time today setting up a Steam group/curator, because why not? I play a lot of adult games... I think every gamedev that doesn't play their competition is screwing up. And I thought to myself, why not just post some of my thoughts as I go along.
There are some caveats; my mother's advice that "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all" holds extremely true when it comes to one developer reviewing other developers. If I don't like it, I just won't touch it.
There's obviously a bunch of great adult content that're not on Steam, for various reasons. Some have objectional content, some are parodies that might pass on Patreon but don't on Steam, and some just never get around to it. The Steam curator task can't touch any of those; I can only review what's already on steam.
Anyway, it's a thing; give it a follow if you want to see what games I recommend as I play. Many will be adult, though some (like Persona 4 Golden, or other games that I feel genuinely moved the needle for me as a developer, will be vanilla).
Apart from that, I pushed a small update live for Book 1 today; it finally automates the rather painful and manual process of looking at localizations, and so is the first time you can actually play the game in French/German/Russian. Note that it's still a mix of hand and machine translation; I hope that making it available and accessible helps spur the localization work :)
I also had a community request for 'streamer mode', so this is the first attempt of that. It'll hide any explicitly sexy scenes, though I guess that's a very subjective path to take. If you disagree that things are 'stream safe', let me know, and I'll try to fix it.
Finally I fixed up some final typos and minor issues; it wouldn't be enough to do a real build on it's own, but between the various fixes (and a bug-fix that hopefully helps some Mac users reporting crash on launch), I felt it deserved a fix.
As always, if you want a key, PM me and I'll fix that.
Droid.
