Plans for The Home of Pleasure!

I'm uploading version 0.1 to various places as I write this, so while I wait, I want to talk about my plans for the game.

 The Home of Pleasure begins as a slice of life dating sim, but gradually devolves into a lust-fuelled romp of crime, debauchery, and romance. One of my main goals is realism, so my intention is to start slow, and build the drama through a series of events that escelate as the characters grow accustomed to the increasing drama.

Currently, as of version 0.1 (the prologue, and episode one), the game is still in its slice of life phase, where everything, okay, most things, are peaches and rainbows. But by the end of episode two, some of the characters will find themselves indebted to a violent criminal organisation struggling to stay in power.

About the Game

The Home of Pleasure is an adult visual novel, which means it's story-driven and dialogue-heavy, but it's also a game, so it will be as interactive as possible. To do this, I've made it stat driven, with unlockable features, and many of the lewd scenes will be interactive.

This is harem game with a focus on realism, so the love interests will acknowledge the harem, but they won't all get along. This allows for more personal drama, and the need for the player to make tough decisions.

The game will also feature a branching storyline, so the player's choices will dictate how the story unfolds.

All kinks are optional, so there are numerous choices throughout the game that turn on different features. If there is something you don't want to see (for example, pregnancy or BDSM), you won't have to see it.

Future content will include (but won't be limited to) BDSM, corruption, exhibitionism, lesbianism, pregnancy, and voyeurism.

My Goals

Realism is important to me, so The Home of Pleasure will try to be as realistic as possible in terms of romance, storyline, drama, and lewd scenes.

A huge focus of mine is tailoring the game to the player's tastes, so the lewd elements revolve around player consent. As a result of this, it's entirely possible to play the game without romancing any of the women, if you so wished.

Being an adult game, romance and lust play a key role. My intention with this is firstly, to make enjoyable adult content. Secondly, to make the player fall in love with the characters. And thirdly, to make the player feel loved, which is an often overlooked aspect of adult gaming.

Replayability is important, and it comes wrapped up in the choice-driven gameplay. It is impossible to see every scene or unlock every reward in a single playthrough, so the game features numerous little variations to keep replays interesting.

Episodes

The length of each episode will vary, but all of them will be quite lengthy. How long, exactly, depends on several factors, so I'm not able to determine that just yet.

• Prologue - Intro to characters and world. (Complete)

• Episode 1: Desire - MC searches for romance. (Complete)

• Episode 2: Anticipation - The real drama begins. (In Development)

• Episode 3: Lust - Escalating drama and danger.

• Episode 4: Indulgence - A breaking point.

• Episode 5: Ecstacy - Escape or embrace the danger.

• Episode 6: Debauchery - Lingering threats.

• Episode 7: Hedonism - Resolution and new-normal.

• Epilogue - Where your choices shape the future of each character.

Open to feedback

As you can probably tell, the main storyline is mostly fleshed out (I have a hefty outline), but I will be posting regualr polls so the players can help shape the future content of the game.

I'm making this game with the player in mind, so it's important I get your feedback and understand how you would like the game to develop. I'm open to all feedback, suggestions, ideas, complaints, and criticism.

With love,

Badger
