Bathtub

Minipool

Shower

Wardrobe

Since the game's images are now layered, we can easily add many different clothes for the main character and NPCs. And lots of clothes require different categories to make changing between them more comfortable. The categories are: sleepwear, sportswear, home clothes, swimsuit, casual, evening, and ...

Here we go again

My previous post caused a lot of stir, so I guess I wasn't clear enough. On hindsight, maybe using words male protagonist wasn't the best idea since the word protagonist is often associated with stories. Usually it's not a problem because playable characters in games are also game's story protagonis...

Compromise

Last couple of days we had an active discussion about a male protagonist(mp for short). We don't want to ignore the players who supported us from the beginning, but we also don't want to delay the game's development or try to fit a square mp in a round story. Thankfully, we are making a sandbox, so ...

When?

A lot of people ask about release date of the first version of the game, which is why I want to tell you where we are right now in the development.

When I was working in AAA company, development wasn't as streamlined because managing large groups of people is very complicated. But now that we're a...

Layer up!

As you probably remember, Big Brother had tiers of clothing. Kira moved into the house and everyone changed their clothes, which led to massive amount of work because we had to re-render a whole bunch of images. There were even a couple of events that stopped working because we didn't make new image...

Poll results

Our previous poll about choosing your character's gender is more or less finished. Over 2400 people have voted and about 36% want to be able to choose main character's gender. I think it's safe to talk about the results now.

As some of you already know, our new game Glamour is a remake of my first...

Inventory

Since Glamour is going to have a lot of items, we're working a good, functional inventory. For example, the game has categories for items like: "all items", "food", "gifts" etc. The categories are temporary and we might change them down the line and add new ones. We'll definitely add "quest items".<...

Gender poll

A lot of people are asking about main character's gender. We firmly believe Glamour's protagonist should be female, but we can't ignore player's desires. Which is why we want to make a poll while the game is still early in the development.

1)  The protagonist should stay female

2)  ...

Игра представляет собой песочницу, то есть, открытый мир с большой свободой действий. Однако, одной «песочницей» игровой процесс не ограничивается. Также присутст�...

Backyard (Updated)

As you can see on the image, it has a minipool, where you can relax in a small company. It also has a place (on the left), where you can enjoy a good book. Julia and Kate can tan right in front of the neighbor's house, so someone will be happy to spy on them. And it's a great place for a romantic di...

Interactive objects

As I've mentioned before, the game will have interactive objects. For example, in the living room it's a sofa, your wardrobe, TV set if you bought one, and the kitchen. After clicking on object's icon you'll go to the object's screen and see available actions. For example, if you walk up to a closed...

GUI

Since we're planning to release the game on mobile devices along with PC and Macs, we're reworking the interface so it has good usability whether you use a mouse or your finger.

Top part of the screen has important information you want to see at all times: your status bar (I'll tell you more about...

Dialog UI

Today I'm going to tell you about new dialogs. We completely reworked its design and functionality. If you've played Big Brother you've seen the game had a lot of dialog options like “yeah” and “continue” that were there just to break someone else's dialog in two because the dialogs were tak...

News

Big Brother's development is now officially over. We've finished 0.13 and now we are moving to our next project. I won't link 0.13 in here, you'll have to look for it yourselves.

Now it's time to talk about Glamour. More specifically, game locations. The game is going to have a city map with key l...

The main character is a girl?

Many people were surprised by the news that our new game will have a female protagonist. Today I'm going to tell you why I want to do this.

All games with male protagonists can be boiled down to just one formula: you create a perfect alpha-male who fucks everything in his path. That's how they all...

And we're back!

Well, we had a very long week, but we're back now, so I'm going to explain what happened for people who don't follow us on discord or telegram.

If you missed it, our page was suspended for a couple of days. Recently Patreon has decided to crack down on certain, em, let's call it sexual preferences...
