Project Plans - (Month of June & Week Starting 1st June)
🕑 Added 2020-06-02 21:43:43 +0000 UTCHi everyone, and welcome back to another monthly and weekly update on what my plans are for The Repurposing Center. Generally I think last month was a good development month, with more regular updates for the most part, though there's still soom room for improvement. Though a few minor health-releated delays plagued the latter end of the month, it felt like things were going more smoothly in general.
Quickly there are a few minor things to go over before we get into the main part of this monthly update;
- Firstly, we're closing in on the 3-year anniversary of this game's creation (YAY!). In the past I've been a bit rubbish at doing anything special to mark the occassion. This year I have a couple of small plans (an in-game event that only triggers in July - and another one of these bullet points), however, to say a big thank you to you all for sticking with me so long I'll be running a quick poll on the Patreon over what big piece of content that I've never got around to you'd like to see me tackle next ^_^
- Secondly, on a slightly less upbeat note due to work (Master's thesis writing) related matters I'll be taking a week off of game development at some point in this month, likely either next week or the week afterwards (depends on the altered deadlines). I will, however, endeavor to get at the very least the current build out before I knuckle down on that. Thank you for your understanding, after this there will be only one more similar delay to the project sometime in the August/September region.
- Thirdly, as a few of you have noted the goal for creating a wiki/website for the game were met at the tail end of last month. Whilst I usually wait until the goal is successfully met after payment processing, I'm happy to say that it's close enough and begin work on setting things up. This will likely not go live until mid July given everything else noted above, but thanks again for your amazing support, and hopefully this will bring even more people into our wonderful community ^_^
- Next. Basically, Patreon have started to collect sales tax from more of you (previously it was mainly UK and EU residents). I've done my best to tag rewards so that the tax rate will be minimized whilst being still honest (it's a bit of a complicated system), but am not sure how much this will effect you all.
- On a similar note, whilst it won't effect you all as you're already patrons, I'll be swapping over to Immediate-Payment on this Patreon account as I've had an minor annoying issue with a few people consistantly joining the Patreon each month only to leave again on the last day of the month so they get all the benefits without paying which just doesn't feel fair on you all. I've also had some issues in the past with people using this system to leave behind unpleasant messages for me, which is also part of why I'll be doing this.
Last month saw the new ABDL Dragon-Mom adventure, the Gym & Exercise system, and some content that has been developed but not been released yet which includes; a milker furniture piece for lactation players to have in their room, lots of new Allie interactions including her first quest, the Chess Man's core mechanics, an introduction scene to (ABDL) Aurora (a Furry/Not-Furry Tom-Boy), basic weight-gaining code on food, a bit more chastity integration, new images and some more tweaks. There were a couple of issues last month, but as stated previously I think the content connects up well to expand options and make the world more lived-in.
This month I want to still concentrate on commissioned content, putting out the (commissioned) re-work and expansion on the ABDL Diaper Mini-Game among other things. After that the more important goals I have for the month are; adding some usage scenes for the Brothel and Glory-Hole, add in new clothing and sex toys (along with a new clothing store and masturbation scenes with the sex toys), continuing the Fem/Sissy trainer and the Pet-Play trainer content, expanding on Kristen and the Chess Man's content sections, and finally creating an in-room wait option (much harder than you might think as it'll need specialized scenes for various time-sensitive things triggering).
In terms of ongoing polls the winners of the two monthly art polls were the bunny-girl pet-play ending, and finally the inclusion of the piercing system. New art polls will turn up some time over the next few days, along with another shorter term poll for what you'd like to see me work on to celebrate 3 years of The Repurposing Center ^_^
In other news; Because there was so much news (and news I thought needed to be seen) I covered it earlier in this post.

Commissions
The polled and commissioned content backlog is finally starting to clear up, but I'm still quite behind in some cases handling commissions from over a year ago. This is partly down to me over-promising when it comes to these areas, so in the future I may need to scale these down.
The open commission spots as of this moment are:
- All Taken (Sorry ^_^)

Monthly Plans
This month, my main aims are; To try to catch up on major polled and commissioned content areas. My first goal is to sort out the long bugged ABDL Diaper Racing mini-game and expand it (commissioned). After that the more important goals I have left for the month are; brothel and glory-hole usage scenes, new clothing and sex toys, Fem/Sissy trainer and Pet-Play trainer expansions, expanding on Kristen and the Chess Man's content sections, and finally I want to create an in-room wait option (more work than you might think). Last month my aims were a little too big, so I'm hoping that by down-scaling them this time you'll see majour progress on all the listed items.
1/ Visit-able Glory-hole and Brothel - Something I've had requested for a long time is the ability to visit the glory-hole and brothel. Now, mostly those locations as a framework are already in-place within the sandbox, but they've yet to have any scenes. This month I hope to give these locations at least a basic use option that will be applicable for male or female players.
2/ New Clothing & Sex Toys - Recently I recieved a large batch of new more normal clothing art from my main artist. I hope to add in a new store to handle these more normal clothing pieces, along with having some way set up to let players customize whether they can easily get male/female clothing. Sex toy images are also something I have had sitting around for a while, so I want to finally get those into the game, along with some corresponding masturbation scenes. Finally, I really want to reclassify butt-plugs as their own clothing slot, however, I'm not sure if that will be do-able within this month's timeframe.
3/ Fem/Sissy Trainer Expansion - Stage 1 of the Fem/Sissy Trainer is complete, so I want to move forward with this content. Firstly, I want to branch it out between a femininity trainer path where the player is taught to be more womanly, and a sissy path where the player is humiliated (and gets to remain with male gentials if they have them). This trainer will probably eventually have 3 stages, with an eventual more bimbo <-> sweet choice on the femininty path, whilst sissy's will have a sweeter or more slutty choice too. For now this month this is likely to be limited to a basic choice scene between the two Stage 2's after a certain amount of encounters with her have passed, followed with some regular nightly encounters for the two branches.
The sissy path of the Fem/Sissy Trainer is also intended to be a potential key holder for chastity players. However, as I don't want to force that only players who are more into the humiliation aspect of sissy-play and not the full chastity shut-down I'll likely be making Chastity an optional fetish within the game.
4/ Pet-Play Trainer Expansion - Stage 2 of the Pet-Play trainer content is currently underway, with a decent little collection of nightly training scenes available. I want to add in the tasks system for the Pet-Play trainer, where some days you'll be given a task instead with a punishment or reward lined up for players who fail/complete it respectively. This will be a bit like the setup for the ABDL trainer for context.
5/ [ABDL] Overhauling the Diaper Racing Mini-Game - The Diaper Racing mini-game was something I did relatively early in game development, and whilst fun and interesting I've wanted to do more with it for a long time. Well, thanks to a wonderful commissioner who adopted this idea, I'll be expanding (and fixing) the current mini-game in some interesting ways.
My plans are to have the Diaper Racing Mini-Game be able to handle a large extendable pool of opponents within the Diaper Racing league. Each opponent will have different AI reactions, different stats, and will each have specialized action that only they can make use of. I'll also set it up so people who only want sexual encounters with one gender of NPC will only have those NPC's to play against.
6/ [ABDL] Expanding Kristen's Plot-line - Kristen so far is a sweet, if not a little clumsy and forgetful, nursery caregiver. The plans for Kristen is that a series of encounters with her will progress over time interacting with her, in which she'll be bullied and babified slowly by Tammy another caregiver introduced in Kristen's content. There are longer-term plans attached to this content, but I don't want to give away much more than that for now.
7/ The Chess Man - The Chess Man who was introduced in the last update has a large amount of TF related content planned for him. Basically, players will be able to play chess games against him, in which they'll have a variety of choices over how they want to play (cautiously, decisively, purposely losing). Players can get various outcomes, going from complete victory's, partial victories (winning the prize money but getting a TF), partial losses (losing but with only a minor TF), and major losses (major TF's). These wins will be totalled up for some future special encounters with him, along with a Chess Master trait being added to the game which will make it easier to beat him.
8/ Aurora - Aurora (ABDL) is a furry panther/cat-girl tom-boy who likes to be useful and make a bit of money on the side. I want to finally add Aurora into the game, having a furry version and non-furry version so she'll appear regardless of fetish choices (though players will still need to be playing with ABDL content to encounter her). Aurora will have a meeting scene with the player inside the nursery, followed by not only having encounter scenes within the nursery job (such as at nap time or at the tea party), but will also serve as a new merchant the player can interact with. She will sell bottles with various substances within, which will later be factored into the hunger/thirst mechanics when I eventually add them in (along with some other content - as I want to add in for example cum additiction too as an optional system).

Weekly Plans
My main focus is: There's a lot of commissioned content that probably fills this category, but because it's something I've dawdled on for so long I'll say that the Gloryhole and Brothel usage scenes will be the thing that I make sure enters the game (despite them not necessarily being too complicated). This was missed out on last week as I concentrated on the Allie content first, so this time I'll be trying to get this done more ardently.
My secondary focus is: Mostly commissioned content, with some other bits thrown in. However most of these are likely to be tackled over the weekend instead of making it into the next build. If I have time I'll be working on creating a new medical plaza location, adding in the new clothing items, and finally adding in the sex toys. I'm also continuing to look into separating butt-plugs out of the underwear slot, and re-adjusting the the hair accessories slot into a headwear & hair accessories slot.
The scenes and assorted content I'm really aiming for this week are;
- Kristen Job Encounters 2 & 3 - In these job encounter which will trigger by repeatedly spending time with Kristen in the ABDL Nursery job, players will watch as Kristen is bullied by Tammy into being diapered, then in the second she's bullied again into losing her skirt.
- Chess Man Core Mechanics - The Chess Man has a fair amount of content planned for him, but for now this weeks plan is to create the overarching chess system which determines how badly the player wins or loses, including just a few cursory TF's for now.
- Starting Fixing/Expanding Diaper Racing Mini-Game - I'll likely only be doing minor work on the content this week, aiming to make this the top priority next week. However, I want to start some of the overhaul this week, looking into setting up the new base code and putting in some fixes to it.
- Spanking 'Top-Up' Session Random Encounter - A random encounter for the Admin Hub where a sexy female secretary approaches the player announcing that they're due a 'top-up' spanking to keep them disciplined. Is she telling the truth?
- Rampaging Beautician Robot Hairstyling Random Encounter - A random encounter for travelling back from jobs/training/dates, where a rampaging beautician robot will corner the player giving them a random hairstyle dependent on their hair length and then professionally setting it (so it's more difficult to change).
- Rampaging Beautician Robot Makeup Random Encounter - A random encounter for travelling to jobs/training/dates, where a rampaging beautician robot will corner the player giving them a random selection of makeup.
- Fem-Dom Cum Feeding Encounter - A random encounter when travelling back from jobs/training/dates, where a female dominatrix will corner the player, demanding that they engage in cum eating for her. Non-con players will have no choice.
In terms of minor content yet to be done; The (polled) Non-Con/Bondage scene of being mistaken for an escaped slave, a (polled) fem-dom cum feeding encounter, a (polled) dildo sucking competition, (polled) Alice asking questions random encounter, the (polled) brothel encounter where the player is requested bound due to a scared female client, a (polled) random encounter featuring the Wheel of Transformation game show, a (polled) rampaging beautician robot, the (polled) stuck in concrete scene with body-writing, the (polled) slave cum-swapping scene, the (polled) spanking 'top-up' session, the (polled) walking herd of hucows scene, the (polled) deg brothel bondage enema scene, the (polled) industrial dairy faulty milkers scene, the (polled) female kissing brothel session, the (polled) Riley and Shadow Pussy Lickers job encounters, the (polled) cosplay event, the (polled) Mistress Sarah submissive path, the (polled) sex toys and chastity update, the (polled) addition of Milky's Diner, the (polled) bimbo clothing expansion, the (polled) Lollipop sex scene, the (polled) Dragon Bride ending, the (polled) kitten-play mouse catching Pet-Play Trainer task, the (polled) 'Stink Butt' humiliation ABDL task, (polled) Lianna's quest, the (polled) piercings system and store, the (polled) bunny-girl Pet-Play ending, and finally the (polled) Alice second quest.
