February 28th Update
Added 2016-02-28 16:33:26 +0000 UTCThis update, unfortunately isn't very visual. It was mostly cleaning some stuff up, bug fixes, and rewriting some blueprints for future expansion.
I've tried to mask the transitions to sex animations to make them a little less jarring. To this effect there will be a quick white fade and a camera shift to try to mask everything during the animations set up and break down, and I think it works. This is something I've noticed in other games(happens a lot in Assassin's Creed and Shadow of Mordor), and thought it would also work here really well.
This doesn't effect anything play wise or visually, but I've changed the way the player keeps tracked of seduced/charmed enemies. While doing so I noticed there where situations where the enemy might become unseduced without the player keeping track. That has been fixed.
The player can also die now. There is no death animation yet, but when the player is killed, they will freeze, and respawn.
Finally, so as to make a little goal for the next build,I've added an objective. The player can only seduce one enemy to start. "Hidden" in the level are two hearts, collecting each will increase the max number of enemies the player can seduce by one. This won't be in the final game, but its some sort of objective in the meantime.
Of course as always I'd love to hear and comments or questions!

That's something to look into, thanks!

2016-02-29 17:27:46 +0000 UTCIt might not be as visually gratifying, but an easier goal (at least in terms of art assets) could be adding unlockable colors/patterns/shaders for Meridiana and her clothes. I, for one, would still go out of my way if I knew an extra hair color or tan variant or clothing shader were hidden in a cave or locked behind a few more seductions or whatever. Regardless, it's nice to hear you're plugging up holes and planning for the future on the gameplay side of things!

2016-02-29 11:52:35 +0000 UTCIf in the end no extra costumes get added I won't be disappointed. It's not the focus. It's just the most obvisious thing to hide as goodies/add fun/add exploration if needed. Also different hair cuts might be easier to do, but also very rewarding. Anyway, keep up the good work :)

2016-02-28 20:11:54 +0000 UTCThis is probably a stupid question, but is there any way to change settings (resolution, windowed to fullscreen etc.) in the demo?

2016-02-28 20:09:28 +0000 UTCI agree with the outfits idea, most games have collectible/unlockable outfits and it should work really well for this type of game especially. I know it's early days but just wanted to add my 2 cents while it was mentioned. Great work so far.

2016-02-28 18:49:24 +0000 UTCSo I now that you can die how does the health system work has a bar been added or is it based on existing mana/stamina

2016-02-28 18:25:15 +0000 UTCI do have plans for boss monsters, as that's the whole idea of what she's doing. Adding new costumes is hard, and you're correct, if I do it, I want to do it right. People really seem to want it, and so while its not something I initially planned on, I might end up adding one or two.

2016-02-28 17:43:07 +0000 UTCTHought about new haircuts (or hair circlet or alice band) or dresses possible to find on the maps? Honestly I think different dresses would only be worth adding if they would squeeze her breasts, ass or thighs correctly. Don't like it when games add alot of dresses are just like an overlay. That's kinda wasted because new dresses are only interesting if they make her body more hot, and they only do that by changing her shape in a hot way. Just my five cent about dresses. Maybe also too early to talk about stuff like that :o Making games is hard. And bossmonsters would be hot :o

2016-02-28 17:12:41 +0000 UTCEven if there isn't a lot to show off it's nice to hear things are getting more and more stable with each new update!
