Maddie changes

Maddie has become a problem for me for a variety of reasons.

Patreon has banned blackmail-based sex. That happens in Part 1, which is no longer posted on Patreon, so the game is in a gray area.

Because of her three routes, I have to write three scenes for her every time anything lewd happens. The workload is enormous. In the next update, just for the different animations on the different routes, there are more than 2,800 animated frames, more than 3,100 in total. That slows down the rest of the update.

I have been thinking about a solution for several days. You know I had said that I would give the option (for the FemDom and MaleDom routes) to converge with the romance route keeping the domination kinks. It was going to be an option that could be declined.

That would partially solve the first problem, but would aggravate the second, as we would go to five scenes (Romance, Romace with FemDom kink, Romance with MaleDom kink, Femdom and MaleDom). I'm saying that a scene with Maddie would require over 5,000 renders. It's unmanageable for me.

Considering that the pure FemDom and MaleDom routes left Maddie out of the harem, I've come to a determination which is why I'm writing this post.

In v.0.17, Maddie is going to continue with all three routes, the scenes are almost written and rendered and I'm not going to throw that work away. Having Maddie in a parallel relationship to the harem doesn't make much sense for the development of the family, so, to me, what makes the most sense is that the convergence with the Romance route is forced. Sorry, you know I like to give options and respect your choices, but every time I have to do a scene with Maddie I die a little inside when doing the domination scenes. And so does the MC. I've discovered that there's a lot more laughter in the Romance route than the other two. He's not comfortable in that role.

Beyond 0.17 the route with Maddie will become Romance regardless of how it started. That route will have domination fetish, but it will be like a roleplay where they will experiment with domination, not pure domination. The change will be justified within the story before the next sexual encounter with Maddie.

Again, I'm really sorry I can't keep the three (five) routes separate, but between the changes in Patreon's ToS and the delay caused by every Maddie scene, I think it's for the best.

And no, this is not a delayed April Fools' Day joke.
