(Future Fragments) The new "No Clothes" mode & more
Added 2019-05-10 00:37:30 +0000 UTCAlright, we're going to cover two things with this post;
First, what we did for the $20k goal as a compromise (and a poll to go with it).
Then, we'll cover your answers from the $20k poll we did earlier.
As always, if you'd like to come talk to us on Discord, we're over at https://discord.gg/puXrfSm :)
------------------------------
First, as a compromise, regardless of what funding level we get, there will now be a mini-nude mode game segment within the game.
We haven't fully locked down exactly what we want to do with it, but here's the things we have locked down;
- It'll be during The End
- You'll need to have all the Fragments/Gold Databanks by the end of the Earth Level, so Vie needs to be with you/needs to be on the true ending path
- It'll involve a short segment of gameplay with multiple enemies from previous levels (around 5-6 enemies)
- Talia won't have any clothes on of course, so it'll be one hit KO, like a stealth section (we're still working on this though/refining this part in particular)
- All the enemies involved in this section from previous levels will get a single new H2 animation each (nude sex animations), so around 5-6 new H2 animations
Tl;dr:
- 5-6 new sex animations
- Talia gets to run around naked in a mini-stealth section
- It's happening regardless of funding level
There's a poll down below; please let us know what you think about these changes/additions to the game!
===================
Second, about the poll results for the new 20K goal.
Honestly, we decided to (for the time being at least) remove the 20K goal.
If we do come up with any sort of reasonable 20K goal we'll put it up in the future, but for now yeah, we're going to delete it and then of course we'll have the mini-nude mode as a compromise that's getting in either way.
The reason we're not putting in a new 20K goal is because we honestly can't come up with anything viable to put for it; every request people had was either something we already had planned for the game, like these features which we already have planned for the full game that were suggested for the 20K goal;
- Cheat codes (and a lot of them at that)
- Gallery to replay CGs, databanks, animations, cutscenes, etc.
- Boss Rush (special ending for this mode)
- Speedrun Mode (all cutscenes disabled, RNG disabled, timer in corner, special ending for this mode)
- Achievements/Unlocks
- Easter Egg Endings
- POV Animations
- Challenge Map DLC
All the other suggestions unfortunately (and we read through every one of them, we promise) were just far too costly on time or finances to be able to pull them off within any reasonable timeframe (we're talking years for most of the other suggestions, and half a year for the rest of them at least.)
Hopefully this mini-nude mode we talked about above is a reasonable compromise for you all though; please let us know what you think in the poll below!

You absolutely will, although you'll get the gallery from doing achievements on each level (easy ones, don't worry), not just by automatically beating the level :)

2020-01-17 21:58:25 +0000 UTCI love this idea. I really Hope we get a gallery after we complete each world. A gallery of the monsters in that world would be amazing :}}

2020-01-17 10:32:38 +0000 UTCIs it wrong that i'm getting an MGS2 vibe from this lol.
2019-05-17 02:23:54 +0000 UTCOh, we'll absolutely have a really fleshed out gallery in the full game!

2019-05-14 23:03:18 +0000 UTCGlad to hear you feel that way :D

2019-05-14 23:03:07 +0000 UTCI really hope to have a gallery, great.
2019-05-14 03:17:42 +0000 UTCSounds very fun - I like how this way it's not just some gimmick but even adds another gameplay aspect :) Imho this way the feature adds more to the game than the original nude skin plan :)

2019-05-12 05:31:21 +0000 UTCNot sure what you mean; the last Earth Level demo was v0.35v2, a few months back. We're on The End now, the final level in the game :)

2019-05-11 08:59:41 +0000 UTCGiven the amount of legal issues that would introduce, we probably wouldn't do that; sorry! :P

2019-05-11 08:59:19 +0000 UTCjust wondering what happened to the earth demo

2019-05-11 03:04:29 +0000 UTCThis sounds like a lot of fun to me. I look forward to it!

2019-05-10 06:33:01 +0000 UTCIf Talia doesn't get a ! with accompanying sound effect when her clothes vanish for the pseudo stealth level, my disappointment will be boundless.
2019-05-10 05:45:29 +0000 UTCAll the Fragments and Gold Databanks should be accessible without needing super high levels of skill; most of it is just figuring out the "platforming puzzle" for 50% of the Fragments, and the other 50% (plus the Gold Databanks) are just exploration-based.
The Future Fragments Team
2019-05-10 03:21:35 +0000 UTCSounds like a fun part of the game if the stealth part is not too hard, but dislike one thing the fact that is should be linked to what seems to the path where you need to be good at platformers so I will possible never see that part as I suck platforming yet some game can get me to play them.

2019-05-10 03:18:01 +0000 UTCI love the concept! Super excited to see the full game release ^^

2019-05-10 03:09:28 +0000 UTCYeah, it's more like "one-hit-kill" mode rather than "actual metal gear solid stealth" mode, it's just implied you'd want to not piss off the enemies since you're at 1 HP effectively. We'll do our best to make it fun though and not frustrating or unfair!
The Future Fragments Team
2019-05-10 03:05:40 +0000 UTCOf course, we don't plan to make it some sort of super difficult, frustrating section; it would be a short section (and if you fail at it, you respawn right before it, not alllll the way back at the hub). Probably no more than 3-4 maps and again not anything super unfair/trolly.
The Future Fragments Team
2019-05-10 03:04:59 +0000 UTCNice comprimise, but like what the others have already said, I hope that the stealth won't be too annoying. I'm excited to see how you guys will implement it.
2019-05-10 02:53:08 +0000 UTCQuite a good idea. You got my "happy" vote. Please avoid making the "stealth section" too frustrating in terms of gameplay. There are several games that tried inserting a stealth section in a game that was not designed for it, and that often leads to an annoying section. :\
2019-05-10 02:41:16 +0000 UTCTbh I didn't really care either way about the nude mode, so very happy with this
