Plap! (By ToonNik)

Good tidings, my bosomy brethren!

I come with a progress update on Phaedra’s train adventure (and an update for the game, see patch notes further down). Progress hit a snag this week as scenes procured via paid writer needed some huge edits, almost rewrites. Since significant chunks of phrasing needed almost completely rewritten, I had to kick them back to the original author for refinement. That’s been handled, and the scenes are being integrated now. The second major fight of the dungeon got some art variation to support phase change in the fight itself and tweaks to the introduction to support the art & combat.

I’m not going to offer an ETA because I honestly cannot place one. I work through one encounter at a time and have been polishing the earlier half of the content while other coders have been tweaking in a more wholistic manner. It feels like we’re getting close, it’s hard to see past the blinders of my own works.

The rest of the team continues work apace, providing us with some Mindstream content for Dhaal’s brothel and the promise of a new Phaedran soon (tm).

0.9.100 Changelog:

• ANDROID WARNING: Due to changes made to our deployment pipeline, the new version cannot access old save slot data. Make sure to back up with save to file before updating!
• [Backers] Experience Dhaal’s infamous Mindstream entertainment at Paragon Playground! To give it a shot, select the ‘VR Space’ option the Paragon Playground’s menu. (Written by William, coded by Leek.)
• [Public] Velta’s Workout Option
• [Public] Edan’s Bi-curious Expansion
• [Android] Gedan reworked the android build deployment for both TiTS and the CoC2 folks to better keep up with Google’s bullshittery.
• New Bust: Horkenn (by Adjatha)
• New CG: Gabilani Cyborg loss (see this post’s image, by ToonNik)
• Siegwulfe’s “Domwulfe” mode should now activate whether you are carrying her or not while in “Crew Toy” mode. (Leek)
• Gravitational Anomaly now applies the kinetic-reduction effect on all foes when upgraded. (Fenoxo)
• Restored missing combat texts for Goo Armor. (lowercase donkey)
• Fixes for Tika vanishing for public build players. (lowercase donkey)
• More blinding attacks now respect blind immunity. (lowercase donkey)
• Fixed stubborn Shalin Shaman issues that have persisted because of an obvious oversight on how the Shaman’s data connects between the two halves. (Gedan)
• Olympia’s “Crew Toy” content should be fixed. (Not sure who to credit, but I was told at meeting it was fixed! -F)
• Fixed bug which caused Deepsea Lab elevator to be open/closed incorrectly. (Drunk Zombie)
• Fixed bug in Deepsea Lab airlock to ocean that allowed use without depthsuit. (Drunk Zombie)
• Various fixes to Flurry’s pureblood pregnancy. Correct scene variants should now be used and codex will increment pureblood kips. (Drunk Zombie)
• Cleaned up some Phaedran codices with references to “Xandam”.
• Buttloads of fixes and tweaks to combat systems! Having both Gedan and I chunking at big, multi-NPC fights has done a lot to reveal minor issues we can sand down. (Gedan & Fenners)
• And many more smaller fixes for things like lone typos, slight word adjustments, etc. (The Team)

Tessa Quest do be lookin’ busty.

Happy Humpday! I just got out of our weekly meeting, and I have a lovely little patch with a raft of fixes, improvements, and a follower expansion for T1K4, the tutorial medi-bot to become a member of your crew.

Gedan and I are a little less visible this patch because we’ve been down in the train dungeon’s fuel car, shoveling code into the engine for its long-awaited (and too-long delayed) release. One of the potential openings has a fight against three discrete enemy statblocks while having a friendly ally helping – which means a ton of extra work to polish author-written text like “The sword slaps into the side of your neck.” into “The sword slaps into ${target.isPlayer ? “the side of your neck” : target.getCombatPronoun(“hisher”) + ` flank`“. Gedan’s first-drafts of the combat mechanics have been fantastic, and I’m crawling through spit-polishing every facet I can get at to deliver a good user experience.

I can’t wait to show it off.

0.9.099 Changelog:

• [Backers] T1K4 is expanded to be obtainable as crew and usable as an accessory for once-per-fight heals to shields and HP. Written by Magenta Needle and coded by Lowercase Donkey.
• [Public] Dhaal’s post-party party is now accessible to the general public. It’s a great way to pass the time until Feruze is ready for a Taxi ride…
• New Bust: Station Mistress (part of Tessa’s quest)
• Under the hood work was done to better consolodate status effect notification text in combat – for example, blinding a large number of enemies at once should report on all of them in one of the little SMS-style text windows. (Gedan)
• Fixed busted parser calls in the post-party party. (Jacques00)
• Fixes for some appearance sub-menus. (Jacques00)
• Gel Zon’s femboy scenes should trigger properly. (Jacques00)
• Improvements to Kattom’s name display. (Jacques00)

• More fixes for the Shalin Shaman (Lowercase Donkey)
• Lots more subtle fixes and tweaks!

Ahsha encourages you to do Tessa’s quest.

Fen here, reporting in to report that the train dungeon still needs to cook some more. Additional bad-ends are being slotted in, and playtests and tuning of the combat encounters are ongoing. In the meantime, Leek and Adjatha have been absolute heroes at working through community submissions and adding them to the game – and Tessa’s Quest is now publicly accessible as of this patch!

0.9.098 Changelog:

• [Backers] A new New Texan encounter! Are you a horny enough dude(tte) to please a family of sexually ravenous dragon-cow hybrids? Written by Sil the Dragon Lover and coded by Leek. It should start out as a random encounter while exploring New Texas. It requires the player character to have a penis.
• [Backers] Thanks to Sil the Dragon Lover (writer) and Leek (coder), it’s now possible to flag yourself as your crew’s toy, and get used sexually by a wide swatch of potential crewmates. Note, not every crew member has interactions.
• [Backers] A gabilani has been added to the extrameet encounters on Tarkus. She’s looking for someone to clean up all her creampies…Written by HatTrick3010 and coded by Leek.
• [Public] Tessa’s Quest is now live for the general public!

• Quest log fixes.
• Lights Out puzzles with limited failures should now function correctly.
• Various other small fixes, particularly typos.

0.9.098 Hotfix #1:

• Added busts: Ahsha, Chiaki, Security Guard (from Tessa’s quest), and Naomi. (Note: Tessa quest appears to be missing comprehensive bust calls, so it’s likely that NPCs are not showing up in all the events they are supposed to.) (Fenoxo)

0.9.098 Hotfix #2:

• Kimber’s item list should display correctly. (lowercase_donkey)
• Areolove should now address all rows of breasts when making changes to specific nipple traits.(lowercase_donkey)

• Birth gender should now be tracked in case we ever want to reference it in the future. (Fenoxo)

This patch is a little more middling in size than the Tessa-pocalypse we unleashed last time – but it still comes with some nice chunky scenes by fan favorite writers Adjatha & Savin – some of which are even delightfully repeatable!

I’m also happy to report that the next plot dungeon is chugging along pretty well in the background. Gedan has been going ham ripping through enemy combats and coming up with fun mechanics to polish them up with. Some members of the team have played through what’s there and gushed about how good it’s coming together. Hopefully I can share more specifics soon!

0.9.096 Changelog:

• In order to improve the flow of Dhaal’s Party event, the player will now be invited to a party after the party where they can spend 36 hours fucking around with Elyrrin (the Gryvain) or Mz. Taldri (the snake). In order to encounter Elyrrin, you will need to have flirted with her during the party itself. (Elyrrin by Savin, Taldri by Adjatha, coded by Fenoxo)
  • Added a new “Backrooms” button to Paragon Playground. There, you can encounter Mz. Taldri again, assuming you have completed the party event. (Written by Adjatha, coded by Fenoxo)
  • Because the above encounter changes the party event flow, I am releasing this simultaneously for all instead of doing additional scripting to maintain the “old” outro.
• [Backer Hotfix]: Added another option to the post-party party: Party Girls! Pal around with four Zaika Peers out on the town. (Written by Adjatha, coded by Fenoxo)
• [Public] A Gabilani Pirate loss scene has gone from backers-only to publicly available.

• The Plasma Torch key item from the Hazard Suit Trooper should now be obtainable from repeat Hazard Suit Trooper encounters. The first Hazard Suit Trooper encounter should now be flee-disabled. For the key item, it will only be obtainable if the character doesn’t already have it and the safe has yet to be opened (however this condition can be changed if we want other uses for the torch). (Jacques00)
• Typo fixes. (Jacques00, lowercase donkey, Drunk Zombie)
