Happy New Year! - 2022 outline

Hey guys,

I hope everyone had a great festive season and a good new year. Now comes the time to settle back down to some work and plan ahead for the future of what is to come for this project!

The good stuff

Some of you may have seen the teasers already for some sexy scenes coming early this year. As I mentioned previously the next build will be focused on delivering some content for all the Lumis characters, as we venture into some new powers.

First will be the 'Pleasure Craving' power, which causes a night visit for the chosen character. Each Lumis character has their own unique art for this power, so 10 new scenes that will be releasing in February! 

We also have the 'Uncontrollable Lust' power as well, which means the character will be overcome with lust and will want to have sex right away, even if they are in public! Each Lumis character will have their own unique art for this as well. So that will be 10 new scenes, which MAY be releasing in February as well, but we will have to see.

After that we are returning back to character progressions and finishing off the characters already in the game. (The poll was super close in the end, but continuing the progressions just won out!) We'll see the Royal Court members breaking their oaths, and the regular citizens completely succumbing to the MC.

I think the way I'd like to do this is do 1 Royal Court Member, and 2 of the Non-Royal Court members in the same build so that way we get a nice variety of content for a few builds. I expect this to take us to about August this year, possibly October depending on how things go (possibly sooner if we reach the higher goals!)

After that we will likely return to the polls to see what kind of content people want to see, I'd definitely like to introduce some new characters and some optional side quest related characters. I've got a lot of ideas still for this world and excited to bring more!

The game

Outside of the sexy stuff I want to start really focusing on the rpg mechanics, including new skills and items and bad guys. The aim is to keep the game more and less the same though, with quickly fought battles and the way skills are bought etc. I want to create some boss fights which might be challenging as well as some really tough optional boss fights that can net you some fancy new gear or something to that effect. 

I'd like to really flesh out the world a bit too and create areas taht you work your way through to get to your destination as well as leaving gaps that can be filled in later with some of the side content I mentioned previously. 

The world map will likely undergo a change where you'll need to complete these areas before you can travel beyond them. Creating a nice link between different questlines. But this will require some planning and thoughts, so don't expect anything on this front until at least the middle of the year. 

One idea I also have is to expand the combat system slightly so you can invite a Royal Court member to join you on a quest. I was thinking of changing the battle perspective to be first person and have the Royal Court member appear to the side (getting you a nice view from behind). It's just that could lead to an imbalance in power as the Royal Court members, are of course, very powerful!

But it could lead to some nice scenes set a camp fire and the like, as well as being able to change their equipment - hello new costumes anyone? ;) 

Little extras

This year it would also be great to start doing some small events in relation to real world dates. The first one coming up of course being Valentines Day... I think there may be a poll on that already ;) 

But it would also be great to do something for Easter, Summer, Halloween & Christmas this year, so hopefully we can deliver that!

Thank you

That pretty much wraps up the ideas I have for this year in terms of content. But I also wanted to give a massive thank you to everyone who supports us in what we do! We saw a lot of growth over the course of last year and it would be amazing if things continued in that direction! We'd love to bring you more content, like voice acting and animations and really and try make this one of the best H-games out there!

So thank you again for making this even remotely possible, there's a lot of conent to come and I hope you are all ready for it!
