Development Log 01


Thank You

Thank you

First I want to thank anyone who supported the initial release of the game. We are just getting started and there is plenty more to come in terms of content. Let's look at what is new in this update.


Development Update

It has been four month since the initial release of the game and the time has come for a new update. I have been working on the next game version and it's finally ready for release. This update consists of a continuation of the Main Quest Line, as well as the other corruption events. This means many new events for you to experience and guide Emily through. Also with every update my aim is to add a new flavor or something fresh to explore and this time it's The Market (More on that bellow).

This post is a Dev Log in which I go over the new stuff in the game as well some of the other improvements that has been made. If you are only interested in the game, you can access the download here on Itch.io or through these posts on SubscribeStar or Patreon.


Continuation of the Main Story

Another Conversation with Zara

After the events in the Confessional the story continues and Emily has to navigate her way through all sorts of perils that block her way.  There will be new locations, new and returning characters. Many lewd scenarios and precarious situations await Emily on her quest.

Currently the game is structured with the Main Story line and a complementary set of other corruption quest lines that help with the progression and show Emily's slow descent. The Main Story line will be the main vehicle for delivering the story with lewd events not being the focus but rest assured there will be plenty of those there as well. Also as Emily progresses on her journey more and more of those story quests will revolve around lewd events.  All of the other quest chains will focus on sex in all flavors.

The Market

The Market

Start of new event line in the Market consisting of Emily gradually losing more and more of her clothes as she works in the Merchant's stall filled with "Challenges" and customer requests which she reluctantly fulfils. 

Sneaky Hand

The Market flavor is exhibitionism and public nudity in the context of getting used to being naked in public where people want to see you naked and encourage you to remove your clothes but you are very reluctant to do so. Other flavors of exhibitionism like the thrill of being naked somewhere you are not supposed to be and will be punished if anyone finds out, are planed for a different set of events.

 

Improvements to indoor rendering and other stuff

Old Rendering

As an ongoing effort to improve the visual presentation of the game I have tried to improve the rendering pipeline to subtly add some shadows and highlights to indoor renders. My hope that this change will make the renders better and does not impact the render time too much.

New Rendering

There is always a trade off between fidelity and the speed of rendering and my approach before was more towards speed and that the resulting  image is good enough but the indoor scenes rendered this way were way to flat. With minimal shadows and highlight it felt a little unnatural so I have decided to tweak the rendering process slightly to add these subtle shadows and highlights. 


The improvements to displayed image quality is a never ending  process and I'll make tweaks and adjustments in the future.  I want to provide a realistic images that you can get immersed in, a world that is believable, captivating story and of course the lewd scenarios to wet your appetite for some action.


I also completely redone how images are handled and stored in the game files, resulting in much smaller game size. The game went from nearly 5GB to 1GB  which is a lot better and more sustainable for the future. The cost of course is that image quality is slightly worse but it should not be noticeable. 

Added voice acting, sounds, sound effects and music. I cannot easily showcase it here but the game now features a chill music that should make playing the game more enjoyable. During sex scenes and animations - voiced moans, climaxes and various lewd sound effects have been added to make the scenes and animations more engaging.


Next Goals and Plans

This update marks a significant milestone for Emily on her journey and is one of the pivotal points on her descend into pleasure and depravity. A lot is already planed for her next steps, mainly the continuation of the Main Story as well as the side corruption events with many predicaments and exciting situations that she will find herself in. 

I also plan to release a demo some time soon but a lot of things need to be sorted out before that is possible. 


Closing Thoughts

There are still plenty of things for Emily to do and experience before fully unlocking her carnal true self, before being driven only by her most primal desires. Her journey being about encountering all kinds of flavors of sex and her gradually liking them more and more. And even after that there will be a lot of room to explore these flavors to the fullest. That means a lot of lewd content to come so stay tuned for the next Dev Log. I will try do more regular ones but only if something significant warrants one - like a demo or a next update. Though I am not sure when that will be so watch this space for anything. If you want more regular weekly updates - you can support me on Patreon or SubscribeStar where I post weekly updates with 4k renders that I do for the game that end up there in much lower quality.

It's not necessary but every bit helps.


And once again I want to thank you for any support, it's very much appreciated.
