The Company - Alpha 5.1.8 - Patreon Update
Added 2017-12-01 21:05:17 +0000 UTC
If you want to play locally, you'll need to download both Image Pack 1 and Image Pack 2, as well as the game's HTML file. The HTML file should be in the same directory as the "pics" folder.
See 5.1.9 update post for download
This update takes a major balancing pass at the income system, as well as fixing a few formatting bugs. I'm hoping this will be the final update before the public release next weekend.
The Company - Alpha 5.1.8
- Moved lab upgrades and serum selling to new "Manage Lab" scene accessible from the lab
- Penny will no longer increase serum yields during story events
- Serum yield increases are now their own (expensive) lab upgrade
- There's no limit to how many times you can increase serum yield
- Increase cost doubles for each increase
- Increases are unique to each serum
- Currently only available for MCS-1, MCS-2 and MCS-3
- Material yield increases with lab upgrades have changed
- Yield increase reduced from +50% to +15mL
- Lab upgrade costs have also been smoothed out and reduced as a result
- Penny's assistance still grants a 50% increase
- Taking your sister's panties during random laundry event no longer makes you submissive
- Additionally, this event no longer causes time to pass regardless of choice

Yes, I've just finished resolving those. I'll have a more stable build out by the end of the weekend, sorry for the inconvenience.

2017-12-02 18:59:56 +0000 UTCI just went from Trans to Shemale and from Female to Shemale with and without chastity and couldn't reproduce this issue. I'll take another look at the code to see where that may be occurring.

it would also be smart to get penny do do sepret tasks for you. you would lose the bonus but you would get what you need.
2017-12-02 07:55:01 +0000 UTCThe changes seem to skip around allot. Its hard to keep on being shemale for example as you tend to go into full female even when wearing male clothes and doing only dom stuff. There would not be a problem if you could wear an item that tended to make you drift towards dom. Like the strap-on for females. Also when you go early sissy and get the cage its permanent. As the cage gets you horny all the time and to unlock it you cannot be horny right? Or am i missing something. Also Tasha has a bug in this release when she is max mind controlled. When you walk onto her masturbating it shows both male , female and sissy scenes at once. :) Keep up the great work!

2017-12-02 07:16:48 +0000 UTCOne other thing with the crafting system for me is, how tedious a day of just creating chemicals is. Just to crete any chemical once i have to click 4 times -> select crafting menu -> select chemcal -> confirm selection -> continue from the result screen that in the 6 time slots of the day + sensless, go home sleep, comback clicks (depening on mornigns with the mom are another 7) makes around 30 clicks for nothing but producing checmicals. for multiple days A possible solution could be to allow me to just click a "produce again" link on the result screen of the prduction (would reduce the clicks by around 9 for 3 repetitions up to 15)
2017-12-02 06:24:50 +0000 UTCOkay, this first pass was testing the waters a bit, and I can see I may have over tuned things. I'll take feedback like this into consideration and make some adjustments over the weekend. Thanks for the input!

2017-12-02 05:20:45 +0000 UTCI feel like the upgrade changes only work if you never go down the John dom path. I don't think I'd ever be able to make enough materials to afford upgrades beyond whatever my weekly pay would afford while also creating things on that path. The automatic yield increases were the saving grace before since penny refuses to help in the afternoons and eventually John is always fucking her before lunch so she's effectively never there and you can only craft 1 serum in a time block. Even on the other path though, they're a bit much. The early upgrades are actually more expensive than before not less, and you need 2 before you can consistently lower the amount of times you need to craft materials per serum. The serum yield upgrades are just too expensive flat out. You'd need to craft 34 MCS-1 Serums for it to pay for the first rank, which with the severely reduced material yields isn't likely. One of these changes is likely ok (though if you were to keep the static material upgrades I'd say bring it up to 25 per upgrade instead of 15) but both just make me feel like I HAVE to stay in the lab all day ignoring all random events and never going home for evening events with the family if I want to even get enough serum's to keep the story going. I'd also like to argue for keeping % increases instead of static ones. Keep the first upgrade as 50% since that's REALLY needed imo, but after that make it a 25% increase instead. That way the increased yield still feels valuable without ballooning so fast as it did before.

2017-12-02 04:58:15 +0000 UTCTasha's text errors should be fixed. Also the dreams aren't handled in a particularly interactive way, and are more like memory replays. If you had a dick, triggered a dream, then lost the dick, you'll still have the dream. I'm not going to consider that a bug just now, but may revisit it in the future.

2017-12-01 23:20:08 +0000 UTCImage Pack 2 adds Penny's missing note image if you don't already have it. It's not a big deal if you're missing it, as it's only a single notebook entry.

2017-12-01 23:17:51 +0000 UTCAre there any new pics added? Or can we skip the image pack downloads if you got them with 5.1.7?
2017-12-01 23:14:43 +0000 UTCDid you catch the bug I found when, as a female/bimbo, shows error messages around Tasha’s sex text? I also noticed here, and in the bimbo dreams, that it’s showing the person you’re dreaming about playing with your dick, when you obviously don’t have one. Was that intentional? If not, it’s another bug.

2017-12-01 23:13:30 +0000 UTCYep, that was my bad, got a little over-zealous with the Find and Replace function... Re-download the game or save and reload the online version and the issue should be resolved.

2017-12-01 21:41:06 +0000 UTCNot sure if its happened to anyone else, but whenever i try to sell serums its say the link does not exist.
