Glamour 0.23

Well, February 11th isn't exactly early into the month, but this time we're releasing the update earlier than the last couple of updates. We keep trying to release the update as early as possible, but we also keep adding new content, so... You know, the usual. The good thing while this update did take a little bit less time than usual, it still has plenty of new content.

Spoiler alert, here's the 0.23 change log.


The locker room

There's a new regular event for changing into the sports uniform and swimming suit before PE and swimming classes. These two mini events check what characters are present in the locker room, their stage of undressing, and has different angles. It took plenty of sprites and some new code, but it looks really nice. We also used this new code for other events, too.


Cheerleading squad trials

So, this is where the new events start. First you need to finish the old content related to the cheerleading squad. The last step was Karen catching Kate without wearing any underwear during the uniform checkup.

Once that's done, the next step is to ask Angela about the cheerleading squad. She'll tell Kate to wait for the next PE class (Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays). The quest log will have the hints to guide you along the way if you get lost. There are several unique new PE lessons where Angela will be talking about the new trials and earning points. You can see the number of earned points in the change log, by the way.

We don't want to spoil too much about the trials, so we're going to be vague here. Go and check it out yourselves.

All trials are completely optional. You can skip any of them or decide to do them at a later date.

Every trial gives Kate an opportunity to earn points. The number will vary on her behavior. Some of them are periodic and can be repeated as much as possible. Here's a small spoiler: slapping Oscar will result in a longer cooldown, but he will be back eventually.

One of the trials involves a sex shop. For now it only sells one item, but it will increase its stock in the future.

Doing the trials will lead to various people wanting to discuss them with Kate, so there are plenty of new dialogs, too.


The final trial

The ultimate trial will let Kate earn a whole bunch of points, it is the longest event we've ever made. Including choices, it has 122 steps.


You can repeat the last trial to see the alternative option. We didn't want to make a periodic version of the event with the same images but new text, so we're going to expand it in the future. But for now, you can ask Angela and make everyone forget the final trial so you can do it again. Canonically, the event only happens once, so everyone is going to act like it's happening for the first time and Kate won't be earning any extra points. Or you can just save before asking Angela to set up the trial for the first time, if you want. That's basically how it works, but you can still replay even if you forgot to make a save point.


So we had a poll about Kate/Max updates ratio and, not to make this post too, em, topical, but the result is a virtual tie and we're going to piss off half of you no matter we do next, yay :) Because of that we are going with a compromise so no one is happy! Politics! Kate won, so we will keep the old ratio (two Kate per one Max update ratio), but for being a close second, Max gets a consolation prize. 0.24 will be focused on Max, and after that 0.25 and 0.26 will be focused on Kate.


As usual, today is February 11th and 0.23 is released for our $40 Patrons. $20 Patrons will get it on the 18th, $10 Patrons — February 22nd, $5 Patrons — February 25th, same day we release the offline version for the 0.22.


As always, your client will update to version 0.23 automatically (including images).

If you don't have a client installed on your device, you can download it from here.

Automatic updates should work as usual, but if you want you can download a build with all images from here.


Please enjoy our game!

ПРИ НЕПРОЙДЕНОМ МАССАЖЕ, КЕЙТ ПОСЕЩАЕТ ФИЗКУЛЬТУРУи спокойно раздевается-исправте плзз

I have played so many versions of the game now and have some clifhangers now. Whats up with events in the mall? Whats with the nighberhood? To metion 2 of the hangers. Playing as Kate.

Help. Не могу выйти из диалога с директором после наказания Карины. I can't leave the dialogue with the Director after Karina's punishment.

What support group? The only thing left that I'm aware of is finding out if Kate actually got in to the cheerleaders.

Good day, tell me it was written that the 0.23 version will be aimed at correcting errors, tell me what to do in the secondary quest of the support group when Angela is sorry to go to the locker room after lessons, but why is not what is not happening this is a game error or will continue in the next version of this story

from today 22 february

When will the $ 10 be accessed?

You can't transfer from offline to online

I started playing offline version 0.21, now I signed up for the paid version. Can I transfer my saves from 0.21 to 0.23?

gorAi

So it turns out my client just didn't display that it had updated to v0.23, but I can do the cheerleader trials. I still get "yours 0.22".

You might not be able to. Since you can do the final cheerleader trial multiple times, you might just not be able to complete it. I wouldn't worry about it too much

I have 15 out of 16 quest done sofar, i have cheerleading still open, and main story. how do i get 16 out of 16?

Hmm Hmmsen

Does the game become available to play on a particular timezone? I would assume Russian, but last I checked Russia covers several. Is it MSK?

sigh, we voted for sexually directed content over plot going back several months ago and i don't regret my vote or supporting a male character lead. I saw it as a method to offer something to both camps. Max's return was unexpected but not welcomed and im grateful of the content provided. Now regarding the plot holes, these can be filled in at any time during the development of the game. So this doesn't phase me in the slightest . Better to have broad strokes driving forward with game, rather than running around in circles filling in every small inconsistently. For example pole dancing, which could effortlessly be tied in with expansion of the cheer leading squads. While the neighbors arc would require a passive development arc,so no sexual content during development. This latest update for example filled in much of the cheer leading plot hole and the one previous added to the hotel arc.

ghost556

its getting around the complaining which is the problem.

ghost556

why not make a straw poll and post it yourself instead of waiting on DS. Keep it open for about a week or two and then submit the results.

Nice that there are some paths of plot

What my game is so stuck

Just incase any of my previous posts fall into the TLDR category then I’ll simple it down.... DS, please put up a KATE content poll asking if we want.... A) Themed Updates much like it is now keeping things the same B) Plot driven updates where multiple story arcs and opportunities can be worked on at once during a single update, expanding on missing logical content and stories from ages ago that haven’t been worked on at all.

I’m going post this right here in the comments section as a main post and not as a reply, this comment is wholly based ONLY on the KATE side of things.... DS I’d really appreciate you considering this option... I don’t agree with polls in general but I know this is the way you like to do these things.... So why not put out a poll regarding Kate updates being theme focussed on one story arc or if you split the Kate content for a single update across multiple Kate paths??? I’ll always maintain my opinion that thematic updates are just stupid and takes away the enjoyment of playing the game and finding new things out for yourself.... If the content for Kate is split between all the different open plot arcs that can be continued right now without more game mechanics being needed for at least a few updates then not only will the game be a lot more interesting to play but it will allow old or incomplete story arcs to catch up with the current content, I think this is something that will need to be put in a poll to convince DS to change the formula of the dev cycle for Kate, Max content is being blamed for this by some but that’s not the case the development structure and plan is the only reason this has become a huge issue for Kate fans....

I can guarantee that if my time is going to be wasted with more Max update just to 1, Keep Max lovers happy, and 2, to make the content of both more equal, I will end my $20/month support and wait. As far as I am concerned Max isa side story, like Lisa, Veronica, Julia, etc. I would like to see some of those expanded, but not Max. The neighbor boy was teased a long time ago, and even with having sex with several people, including Fedor to save rent, Kate still won't go topless. When is Kate going to be allowed to dance on the pole? and when will she be able to put it to good use with a job that pays more than being a "one-room" maid? I am fine with the current setup, but I am confused. Perhaps there are secret results floating around that haven't been posted, but the only poll results I see show a 54% to 46% split in favor of the current setup. That is NOT a virtual tie, but a clear majority. As I said in another post concerning this: Be Happy Dark Silver is listening to your concerns. I can understand the frustrations of supporting a game that becomes abandoned, but Glamour was not meant to be about Max, but about Kate. This isn't like some constitutional loophole that thwarts the will of the majority over a presidential election. This was clear and straightforward. The majority won.

24 is max

Hmm Hmmsen

I currently do not play the Max route because it has no content. I began supporting again because of the promise of continuing the story with Max from before. If there is nothing worth playing, I wonder why I should even bother.

That compromise makes no sense. Of COURSE Kate wins because most of the people left supporting the game prefer Kate because: 1. Kate has FAR more content in general. She will KEEP getting more content because she gets 2 updates for every 1 update for max. 2. Many of the Big Brother fans left because you abandoned them near the end of major storylines with Big Brother over two years ago. 3. Max in the current game has next to no content because all of the content HAS to be new because you for some unknown reason decided to redesign all of the characters. 4. Max will KEEP having a lack of content because at a 2:1 ratio and with how slowly you add content and story compared to BB there is no way he can ever catch up. 5. The only way the 2-1 updates would make sense is if you were simply porting content from the original game (renders) and events to the new game. But that is impossible, because of the redsigns of Ann and Lisa. 6. Much of your fanbase who left due to Glamour cannot vote in the poll. So the poll is already skewed towards Kate. 7. Even WITH all those advantages, it was a virtual tie. 8. That means at least for the forseeable future there should be a better distribution of Max content to Kate content. It is your game, and don't use polls for an excuse to do what you want. This was the same problem that BB had when you used polls to pick which characters you would spend time on when there were certain routes you wanted to work on. It was decisions like that that left the Lisa story unfinished.

Думаю что нет нельзя пропустить это же задание Николоса

Ariox Hant

Great update, hopefully its expanded in 0.24.

ghost556

I do wonder how much of the basic story has been written, considering there is a Russian only version of Glamour dating back to 2016

In a year? Even if you did only one Glamor, then it will take years to finish the game, which is positioned as a sandbox. The question of whether to finish the game at all is suspended. Even the original versions of Glamor and BB are far away.

BarnettDL

In next Kate update, Many things need to change, furter development with the threesome part with Julia and Nick, Fedor and Veronica paths, decition not to free Julia from bdsm tools, neighbour path, further with Alice, and Sophia. Use of Phone. If a range of smaller much more often updates in these paths are possible? While working on the big updates, ive never been an expert in game developments. But it must be possible to include small updates as the game goes on. like a 23.1 update, 23.2 etc etc.

Hmm Hmmsen

Да смиритесь уже, ждите своих обновлений с Максом.

BarnettDL

My feeling is this is supposed to be Glamour not Big Brother. I started supporting this game long before the introduction of Max. It takes forever for anything to happen as it is. I mean Kate has had dance skills for what a year now? Can she use them for anything? Nope. How about the budding romance with the teacher; or the peeper next door... crickets. The point is as soon as they brought over Big Brother the development of Glamour has slowed down considerably. I quit being a $40 supporter as a result. I wish they would finish Glamour then do Big Brother, or finish Big Brother and then do Glamour. It is quickly becoming a project where you could probably come back in a year and find that the needle hasn't moved much in either story. Which also raises concern if either will ever make it to the finish line.

Kate Won because the poll was during a kate update

я снёс Гламур не люблю играть без читов...

I guess that someday they will merge into one?

A fair distribution would look like this: 2x Kate 1x Max then 1x Kate 2x Max so you could make sure that Max doesn't lag behind as it is now, because the Max Path is not really playable

Answer this question please Dark, as its a very valid concern. What are you going to do when Kate story is done and Max is only 40% done? Will you be doing a half year-a year worth of content solely on Max after? Or something else? Also good job ignoring half the votes. Giving him a single extra update isnt a "compromise" its a spit in the face.

BigMac

During developement, I'd prefer if we could decide what classes to attend, get caught or not, or who else we want to be punished. Having to wait several in-game days for some events to finally occur is a pain.

Bindair Dundat

Что то мне подсказывает, что оба варианта мне не понравятся, но согласен развилки это хорошо

Ariox Hant

It is clear that passing the trials is not so important. That is, can they be completely skipped?

VitAnyaNaked

Ha! great compromise! :) I love it (and no, not being sarcastic at all - I do love it!)

William Urquhart

Well, wait for 024 and then we'll to think about patreonage...

DS а что баги при выходе с комнаты Юли назад не пашет кнопка 0 реакции делай фиксы

Really, this was all for this update? It was pretty much nothing to do🤷‍♂️

Hmm Hmmsen

Well guess I will be dropping my payment again for the next update

Vance Watson

Почитал спойлеры, интересно. Хорошо что есть развилка сюжетная, это большой плюс. Чем больше выбора, тем больше реиграбельности.

BarnettDL

Is there an offline version for Mac OS?
