    ...I'm not gonna lie, that sounds kind of amazing.

    "- Play scene for Bikini Reese added
    - Play scene for Female Reese added
    - Play scene for Male Reese added"
    So none for Mindless?

    "1 scene added to Val romance plot"
    >implying anyone's there for anything but the plot

    "2 scenes added to Hospital Harem plotline"
    Yay, another route! I'm curious how many routes this game has by now...

    A bunch of scenes for Heroic route? Awesome.
    Time to set up a savefile for that.

    1. Somehow I must have forgotten to write down the mindless one. but yes, there is one for mindless Reese.

      Delete
    2. Oh, okay then. I thought that the artwork wasn't finished or something, thus my question.

      Delete
    3. We need oh SO much a scene for Female Reese and Cassandra apologizing to each other an making out -err, I mean, making up afterwards. Maybe exclusive of the Heroic route as a sort of her reward... nah, who are we kidding, MC can also just order them to.

      Delete
    4. HERO reward. Damn lack of edin button. Albeit the scene also doubles as actual "her reward". Double if MC is Rosa.

      Delete
  2. No "repeateable re-pose scene for enslaved Doll Sarah" yet? Tsk, tsk. The interior decorator in me is dissappointed ;-D

    1. Yeah, didn't have time to do it this month. The next part of the heroic route took a lot of time.

      Delete
    2. not that I complain - having such an extension of the heroic route is good enough.

      Delete
  3. Thanks for the great game!
    A few questions:
    -Will you add an outgoing(or in my opinion a
    rockstar) Molly play scene in the next update?
    -Will you add personality change sequences
    for Dr.Tiff?
    -Is there anyway to help with this game?
    (Other than paying, since currently I'm a
    broke T.S student with no credit card)


    P.S if this message looks weird
    it's because I'm writing this on
    my phone.

    1. You can make bugs reports, give honest feedback about the updates, and have him know that his hard work is apretiated. That's what some of us for whom paying through Patreon is sadly not an option (for whatever reason) do.

      Delete
    2. Bug reports are always a good way to help the development of the game along with spreading the word so more people might pledge to him (even if it's $1/month).

      Delete
  4. The artist who had started on Molly's play scenes had to take a break for a major project, so I've been waiting on those scenes for when she gets back so that each of Molly's scenes will be consistent in style. I'm not sure yet if she will be back this month.

    Dr. Tiff will be getting personality change sequences. Just waiting on artwork for it.

    Aside from sharing with friends who are into this sort of thing, I can't think of anything at the moment.

  5. Have you ever considered making a gallery mode for the one off pictures? Just having it roll over with a new game plus, so you don't have to play through a whole new game for those sweet sweet grapple scenes.

    1. IIRC, he intended teh coffer in your room to have that function in a future release

  7. How do you kick off the Hospital Harem plot

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. You need to start the Ms. Rack/Dr. Tiff plot, and upset Dr. Tiff by asking about Ms. Rack directly, then go back to talk to her again and change the topic to "something more fun" when you get the option to.

      Delete
  8. Forgot to ask this earlier:
    Will using Possess on Val have any effect (as in, count towards Tempted Hero path, increase her Obedience or decrease some of her other stat) or is merely a "have fun using a new spell on someone"?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Because the "spell" is actually commanding Sarah's mom to possess her, and not your own magic, it won't make her more obedient. At first it will be just a "consequence free" play, but I am planning on it leading to things happening later.

      Delete
    2. I thought as much but still wanted to make sure. Thanks.

  9. Tried to DL the new version from Gamejolt.
    Whether I choose the "Play now" or "Download now", I keep getting a .swf file that I used to be able to run without issue.
    Now, whenever I try to, it just says it re-downloads without opening.
    Help?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Nevermind. Worked for some reason if I used another browser (despite using the same browser in the past to run the game if I DL'd it...)

      Delete
    2. I'm having a different problem. I
      The .rar file I get from Gamejolt seems not to work. Can't open it with any program I usually use to open .rar files (Unarchiver, Stufft Spander, 7zip...) and can't seem to be able to get to play it onlne to download the .swf itself from Gamejolt.

      Delete
    3. replying to myself, yeah.
      Might I sugest that you could make the .swf itself available for download?
      This not being the late '90s with modem access but late '10s with high-speed conections, small filesize gains don't really meant all that much to begin with, when it comes to downloading...

      Delete
    4. .rar can be opened with winrar. I have to upload it in a zipped folder because Gamejolt is weird. They accept .swf files, but only when they are in a zip folder.r

      Delete
    5. >.rar can be opened with winrar.
      Usually. As well as with a lot of other programs that take .rar (a rather old, well-known format). For some reason, they're ALL of them failing me with THIS particular .rar - I thought I should give you a heads-up about that.

      Delete
    6. Heads-up that RAR Expander gets added to the list of expanding programs that did choke in that file.
      Finally managed to open it with unRar.
      I'd advice you to check your compression settings to see if you've selected any option that might affect compatibility.

      Hey, that's ALSO a kind of bug :D

      Delete
    7. Yeah, I have no idea why so many programs are failing at it. I didn't set any security options; I'm just using the default settings.

      Delete
    8. I've got a quite similar problem here. Whenever I click on play at the interface of the new version (on GameJolt, not in the actual game), it takes me to the download site but doesn't start the download. If I hit download instead, it starts the download despite taking me to the same site. And after I clicked on the .swf file (extraction was easy, so no problems there (I used 7zip)) it opened the site "file:///" and the path of the file, but there's nothing, just a white interface.

      Delete
    9. Latest update for Chrome broke .swf player and now it downloads them if they haven't been embeded into the site in a specific way or something.

      Delete
  10. OK, played through all the new ones but the Submissive plotline, which I'm not doing (well, almost - I've only been able to find TWO of the THREE alternate Julia mind scenes) and found no obvious bugs - this time.

    I found ONE things that COULD be bugs, tho.

    Val's new scene CONSISTENTLY freezes the game if you skip text. *Every* time (not "sometimes" like other scenes with scrolling art did). Even if you skip through the "FF text" button and not by hitting "enter" (which was the usual cause of freezing and works flawlessly in other scenes). It might be a bug, or it might be my system's fault. Please someone double-check that one.

    1. Here's the new Heroic Route/Julia scenes I've found:

      -Pushing past her and Subdueing her leads to two different routes

      -In case of the former, you'll play as Julia (briefly) after fixing her mind. Not sure if you could enter the Dungeon as her (didn't try as I figured I should head to Dr. Tiff)
      -During Dr. Tiff, I had to say the minimum amount to advance (full story resulted in a bad end. Whoops.)
      -Did try to enter library as Julia (another bad end because I will punch him in his FACE).
      -If I subdued her, it was just a general "fix her mind" thing and nothing special happened.

      -If I brought Ashley with me (when pushing past her and fixing her mind), there was a scene in which Julia apologized to her.
      -If I didn't bring Ashley, she just said that whoever I brought would help her delay Drape.
      -Also made a Mysterious Book NG+ for fun. Encountered some weird Book enemy and I didn't have Ashley on that playthrough, resulting in an alternate boss (kinda obvious given what the alternate boss looked like).

      Delete
    2. If you have saved Ashley, you fight BOUND SOUL.
      If you haven't saved Ashley, you fight SHADOW GIRL.

      Delete
    3. Weird. I've got a savefile where I HAVE saved Ashley and get SG anyway. I bet it's linked to the wrong variable.
      I'll fiddle around with the savefile to try to locate the wrong variable, then I'll check how it got wrong to begin with.

      Delete
    4. Specifically, you need to have saved, and fixed Ashley. You still get Shadow Girl if Ashley's mind is broken.

      Delete
    5. Oh, that explains a lot. I went ahead and insta-fixed Ashley.

      Delete
  11. Just curious, is the heroic plotline planned to be much longer, or is it nearing completion? Mind you, both things ARE in the "good news" list for most of us ;-D

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The heroic plotline is both near completion and will be a fair bit longer. There is one branch of the heroic plotline which is near it's climax as of this update; but there are several more paths which will be lengthier.

  12. are the blog gonna get the updated version of the game this week or are we suppose to download it from now on

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Download only due to Newgrounds having a 100 MB limit (and the game is now about 106 MB) from what I heard.

      Delete
    2. GameJolt is suppossed to offer online play, but it doesn't quite work, as the posts here show.

      If Doug were to find someplace to directly host the file, things would be easier. Notice the "If".

      Delete
    3. For now, downloading is the only option. I don't know of any other hosting option that will allow me to upload a file of this size and embed it into this page. I am trying to research it though.

      Delete
    4. Maybe Itch.io works? No idea what their content size limit is to play the game online is, I'll admit.

      Delete
    5. I forgot about itch.io. I had uploaded a version to there way back. I just updated the version on there and will add a link to that as well.

      Delete
  13. How do you open the option menu, again?

    ReplyDelete
  14. If you pull up the menu in the living room or kitchen the 'exit menu' option doesn't work. It's not game breaking as 'return to room' still works but it's a bug all the same.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Might just be me but there seems to have been a lot less bugs as of late...
    Either Doug's cheating on us, FF, with another bug tester or he's actually stepped his game and stopped doing typos/other stupid bugs.
    ...I'm onto you, Doug.

    1. This post gives me some odd deja vu. I could swear I remember someone saying that a month or two ago. :P

      Delete
    2. I did say it a while ago, at that point commenting I hadn't found any bugs and was wondering if you were cheating on me in terms of bug testing.
      At the time, I thought I was imagining things.
      Now I'm pretty sure you are.

      Delete
    3. Now, now, SH, don't be needy... ;-D

      Delete
    4. To be fair, there have been bugs. I had to upload a new version at least 4 times since the public release for bug fixes. :P

      Delete
    5. anyway, the number of bugs is far smaller this version than others. I only noticed one whicj might even not be a bug (the one of now consistently freezing at a similar point where it used to freeze ocasionlly). Whatever you were doing different, keep doing so - it works. ;-)

      Delete
  16. Who will be the next person we'll be able to date in the game? (It's been a while since you last added one, thus my question.)

    1. My bet is for Ashley, if only because the savefile variables mention it

    2. There are two hours left on the tie breaker poll between Dr. Tiff and Cassandra. It's looking like Dr. Tiff will win unless Cass gets a few more vote sin the next couple hours.

      Delete
    3. In a stunning turnaround, Derrick won. Which is weird because he wasn't even in the poll.

      No actually it was Dr. Tiff.

      Delete
    4. >Dr. Tiff won.
      Not even mad.
      Would have laughed (a lot) had Derrick won.

      Delete
    5. Yes, would have been very amusing.

  17. i take it you changed the save system, just downloaded .42 and the resume game is different. i think i lost all my save data too

    1. Yeah, the save system is different. You can access your old saves by using Slot1 Slot2 and Slot3
