I've spent most of this morning working on a few run throughs of the new scenario, and it looks like the few bugs that were present have been eradicated. The linear structure of these scenarios, in some ways, makes things a lot simpler as far as testing goes.
That said, something ALWAYS sli...
2024-05-26 13:45:43 +0000 UTC View PostVersion 1.1.0 of BEAI is nearing completion. All I need is a few debugging passes and we should be golden for a release tomorrow.
I appreciate all of you who have stuck with me on this project. I know it's been a bit of a rough few weeks in terms of progress, and I absolutely plan to addres...
2024-05-26 00:02:48 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
Crazy busy week and weekendend. Crazy busy day today.
Still, I'm nearly finished with scenario 2. Debugging should be quick. I hope to release the new version this week and get to work on the next game ASAP
Got a lot of great ideas. I'm looking forward to it! <...
Last week was as busy as I expected, but I was able to get a modest amount completed. I'm hoping to get at least as much done this week. There's not a ton left to write up on Scenario 2 now. It's probably 2/3 to 3/4 complete. I'm not certain it can be completed this week, but, if it is, the new v...
2024-05-14 00:14:38 +0000 UTC View PostWork has been continuing nicely on V1.1.0. I've fallen into a good groove of productivity when I'm able to work on it. The unfortunate news is that May is a VERY busy month for me, so my time is fairly limited right now. I'm still getting time to work on the game, though, and I expect I'll have a...

Hey there!
I've finally received the final cover art for How the Breast Was Won, and I thought I'd give you guys the juicy peek at what's in store. This art was done by the wonderful Vewuinsky.
As an added bo...
2024-05-02 19:41:50 +0000 UTC View PostGot a pretty uneventful roadmap for this week. I'll just be chugging along on the scenario 2 for BEAI. I've already gotten a decent little start on it, with the next step being adding in the primary decisions to be made for the scenario. The ability to turn off the autoplay for the text has been ...
2024-04-29 18:32:07 +0000 UTC View PostI took some time and cranked out an update to Enter the Expansion Mansion as I mentioned in my last update. This update includes a fix for a soft lock that could occur upstairs (basically you can't lock yourself out of getting the hoverbra) and a fix for an exploit that allowed you to wish for th...
2024-04-25 20:16:35 +0000 UTC View PostJust for my own curiosity, now that it's been quite a few weeks, I wanted to know how many people have found the super secret teaser at the end of Enter the Expansion Mansion. It's one of those things where, if you've found it, you'll know it. It's only accessible from the "true" ending with all ...
2024-04-25 19:09:33 +0000 UTC View PostAdding in the option to disable autoplay on BEAI turned out to be much easier than expected. I'm almost wrapped up implementing that, and I've already gotten a good start on Scenario 2.
In addition, I've taken a little time to work on Enter the Expansion Mansion a bit more just to fix a cou...
2024-04-25 18:48:47 +0000 UTC View PostWith V1.0.0 finally released, I'm off to the races on scenario 2. I managed to find my footing decently well toward the end of scenario 1. The first bit of development there was a bit of a slog, as I wasn't adjusting to the wildly different game. But, I think I eventually got the hang of it and s...
2024-04-23 01:35:42 +0000 UTC View PostI've spent the past two days going over the Vanilla BE scenario and tweaking the timing on the auto scroll text. I've tried to get it to a nice middle ground where it is slow enough for anyone to read, but also fast enough you don't have to wait forever.
There IS a feature that lets you ho...
Debugging is coming along nicely on scenario 1. I haven't yet timed it, but it seems like about 10 minutes or so. I've already caught several nasty bugs and it's now down to typo hunting and working to ensure that the real time text advance speed is honed properly. Some of the pages take far too ...
2024-04-19 15:48:11 +0000 UTC View PostI feel like I've FINALLY found something of a groove with work on BEAI. It's a huge adjustment, as I mentioned before, and I've had a few crises of confidence working on it. I'm feeling better about it now, and, what's more, I finished the first scenario! I'll be taking a few days to do some more...
2024-04-15 13:00:31 +0000 UTC View PostI was able to get several hours to work on BEAI last week, but it wasn't enough to finish scenario 1. I'll be focusing on finishing that up this week. I've also decided that I will just go ahead and push out V1.0.0 when scenario 1 is finished. I'll try to follow that up with a V1.1.0 with scenari...
2024-04-08 18:00:48 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I'm managing to find a bit more time later this week to work on BEAI. The first scenario is coming along decently well so far.
Given that this new game is such a departure from Enter the Expansion Mansion in terms of style, it's been quite an adjustment. For that same reason, I wa...
2024-04-04 19:29:19 +0000 UTC View PostSpecially made just for today, I took fifteen minutes out of my schedule and cranked out a whole new masterpiece just for you guys. This is a brand new Near N. Far mini that I think you'll enjoy.
The game is called Boobs Getting Bigger, and I think you can figure out what it's all about.
As expected, the family visit last week slowed progress quite a bit. I've another this week, so it'll still be slow going. Honestly, it's hard writing smut when relatives are visiting. If I were working on projects that were a little more openly accepted, it wouldn't be an issue.
That's wh...
I've made a good bit of progress on the first scenario (Vanilla BE). Unfortunately, light illness and an unexpected familial visit means that work will be going slower than expected for the next two weeks. I'll still be making progress, but I expect that will be limited to maybe a half hour of wo...
2024-03-27 19:01:40 +0000 UTC View PostThis week is all about the modules!
With the grueling work of sorting out the new game's auto playing conversational text now behind me, I'm going to work on implementing a "click to advance" feature, as well as checking some variables.
Those will likely be completed quickly, and th...
It's been a long week with a lot of coding and recoding and relearning code that I'm not very knowledgeable on... and then more recoding. Basically, it took all week just to get the bones of the game working the way I wanted. But I think it was worth it. I'm putting up Version 0.1.0 as a sort of ...
2024-03-22 20:39:38 +0000 UTC View PostWell, work has been chugging along for the past two days. I'm planning to do some quick testing, and then I'll be releasing the preview version (V0.1.0) later this week. It will contain an intro and the scenario selection menu, though no scenarios will be in the game until the V1.0.0 release in a...
2024-03-19 18:29:54 +0000 UTC View PostLast week went well. I encountered an unsurprising number of problems with the initial coding for BE JOIful, but I was able to come up with solutions or at least workarounds for everything. With the game's intro taken care of, this week will be all about setting up the main menu and settings menu...
2024-03-18 17:48:02 +0000 UTC View PostI know that not everyone likes the same level of spiciness in their expansion content, so I wanted to throw this little poll up to get a feel for where on that spectrum my Patrons fall.
When you're enjoying expansion content (let's just say playing a BE focused text adventure game, for exam...
2024-03-11 17:41:42 +0000 UTC View PostAlright!
I'm rested after a nice weekend of, and it's time to get cracking on BE JOIful!
I'm going to do things a bit differently with the first few releases here. I plan to star...
When you play a second person text game like Enter the Expansion Mansion, what is your preference as far as gender of the player character?
2024-03-09 13:44:02 +0000 UTC View PostDouble release day? Double release day!!!
I've finished and tested the first ever Near N. Far Mini: The Alchemist's Apprentice. This little game is short and sweet. Thanks, especially to Leet and SCHP and everyone else who submitted ideas for the contest. I hope what I've come up with is en...
2024-03-09 00:06:25 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! I'm nearly finished with The Alchemist's Apprentice Mini, but I wanted to take a quick break to do a quick patch for Enter the Expansion Mansion.
V1.6.1 was a VERY fast patch, but it's an important one. As SCHP pointed out, I had been using two separate variables for the lactation...
2024-03-08 19:55:25 +0000 UTC View PostWork on the mini game is going well and I'm getting the chance to experiment with a lot of Macros and coding I haven't yet. I've learned a ton that will come in handy for BE JOIful, which was the main goal here, so woohoo!
The game won't be anything mind-blowing, but I think you'll have so...
I'm a day late on the roadmap for this week, but that's primarily a combination of taking a break after the big release, wanting to let the contest deadline pass for an announcement on that, and also just having a really nasty respiratory something that left me taking things easy yesterday.
