Update, and 5.0 'Proposal'

Hey everyone.

So where's the beauty update?  Great question!  I do have quite a lot of it written (descriptions, dialogues, some items - all good to go!  as is a lot of the bodybuilding competition)

But the truth is, a LOT of my time has been spent just w...

AI Poll Update

Hey everyone,

We're about 1 day into the AI poll.  If you haven't let your voice be heard, please do so!

Currently the Stuff > AI crowd has 7 more votes.  Which gives that position a sizable percentage lead, but there's still ~90 of you who haven't voted! 2017-09-17 21:44:25 +0000 UTC View Post

Moving forward, I would prefer... [BIG PICTURE]

This is a quick and dirty poll for me to better frame how to organize the big picture of the game's development.

I released a Road Map on DA a while back, but I've also strongly considered a lot of feedback, and during some strange creative sessions, came up with a lot of interesting ne...

In FMG Life Sim, Strength Level 1 should represent...

Quick poll about what you feel Strength Level 1 should represent in FMG Life Sim.  Remember that this is generally the starting point of the Girlfriend.

Potential Nightmare Collar Change

I've come up with what I feel is an interesting change to the nightmare collar - at least until more systems come into place that allow me to revamp it (and transfer) entirely.

Proposed Change:

Nightmare Collar is now SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper in the store, BUT, now only has a 10% cha...

How important is Male content to you in FMG Life Sim?

I've had a few people mention they would like the player character to have more muscular/general potential in FMG Life Sim.

My personal philosophy was for the game to mirror an FMG story in that the girl starts off below-average, but ends up becoming superhuman; while the player charact...

4.2 Beauty Update Priorities Poll

Hey everyone,

Work on 4.2 is underway!

Since your support is so crucial, I want to allow you guys to vote on what will be prioritized in the ~10,000 words or so (plus bug fixes and whatnot) in 4.2.

The Beauty Stat will be the main focus on development t...

How 'realistic' should the world of FMG Life Sim be?

Here's an interesting poll to help shape the direction of the game moving forward: how realistic should the world of the game be?

Of course, the Girlfriend will always be a mostly supernatural entity (able to improve rapidly and whatnot) - and already the world it takes place in is fair...

4.1 released to $10+ pledgers

Hey everyone,

Just giving a heads up that 4.1 has been released to the $10+ pledgers.  There's no super elaborate beta this time since there are no new mechanics introduced with the game - just a lot of new descriptions.  If enough bugs are somehow found, then I'll start up th...

Interest in Achievements?

Hey everyone,

Version 4.1 is very close to completion.  But given my history with release dates/deadlines, I'd rather just wait until it's done before giving a hard date.  

In the meantime, I have another poll in mind.  How do you all feel about achieveme...

Which 'filler' backer reward would you like first?

Hey everyone, 

I know that the main rewards for this patreon are the early access, voting in polls, and name in credits - but I do want to try and regularly release Newsletters and Description Texts.

What would you prefer to receive sooner?  A beefy newsletter...

Height Cap? If so, what should it be?

Hey everyone,

Just making a quick poll to see if you guys would like an effective height cap implemented.  This would generally help with realism, as a 10 foot tall woman would have immense trouble functioning in society (let alone standing up in her own home).

Campaign Going to Monthly - General Update

Hey everyone,

I'm going to be turning the campaign to monthly.  The recent poll shows that most people are up for it (I think the people who voted for regular text files wanted monthly, and either way, a lot of people voted for monthly regardless), and it is something I had been pu...

Would you like 'description texts' as a Patreon reward?

Hey everyone,

As we approach the end of the month, I have to make an executive decision as whether or not to change the campaign to monthly (which would generate a pledge on August 1st).  

One of the problems with a monthly campaign is getting frequent content to y...

Poll: Strength vs Muscle Mass split?

Hey everyone,

Curious if you guys would like to see Strength and Muscle Mass split.  This would be a fairly large undertaking, but could have some interesting implications for the game.  For example, you and the girlfriend could both have 18 inch biceps, but if her conditionin...

Which feats do you want to "Ask" the girlfriend to perform?

Per popular request in a recent poll, in 4.1, you'll be able to ask the girlfriend to perform a feat of strength, with her trying to perform it with various levels of failure/success depending on her strength level.

This is NOT the same as the regular feat of strength progression, which...

Should I include this Fan Art?

Hey everyone,

An extremely kind and enthusiastic fan drew some awesome pieces of art of the Life Sim girlfriend.  He's sent me around 7 pictures so far, and might be drawing more.  He's also given me permission to use the art in the game.

While I think the art...

Poll Results - Plans Moving Forward

Hey everyone,

Just a tiny update to let you know how I will be moving forward in response to the results of the latest batch of polls.

The upcoming 4.1 update will have:

- Overall girlfriend descriptions up to muscle level 50.  I will be rearrangin...

How important would a "select a scene" be for Feats of Strength and Unique Workouts?

Basically, you would have the option to "select a scene" from all previous feats of strength / workouts and replay it.  The girlfriend would have to have a high enough strength of course.  Also, the descriptions wouldn't match her current state (example: if you replay the first FoS, and sh...

Thoughts on a Beauty Stat?

Wondering what the current sentiment is towards a beauty stat.  This is how I imagine it'd function:

- Beauty will generally refer to a character's skin, hair, nails, and maybe facial structure + body curvature

- For example, starting/low beauty would be something like "bloch...

How do you feel about the current rate of girlfriend growth - in relation to her strength level

This is a poll asking how you feel about the rate the girlfriend grows - specifically in relation to her LEVEL.

This isn't asking about the speed with which she levels up, but rather what the corresponding levels represent.  That is an entirely separate issue (rate of experience ga...

How important is adding more options to the Devil's Machine?

Hey everyone,

Just wondering how important you feel adding more options to the Devil's Machine (Intelligence, Endurance, etc.) is to you.

I'm mostly asking because writing those modes takes a good amount of time and effort - so if you'd prefer for me to dedicate that to...

Description Update

This is an official heads-up so you can create, delete, or modify pledges as needed.  Please remember that in order to gain Early Access you must process $10+   (...

Submit Feats of Strength Ideas!

Hey there,

Just wanted to make a post saying that I'm accepting ideas for Feats of Strength.  Preferably looking for something that isn't already covered by the existing feats of strength.

Feel free to send any ideas either by replying to this post or sending me a ...

What First: Descriptions, Competitions, or Random Events?

Hey everyone,

So competitions and random events were the upcoming updates you voted for.  But the latest poll indicates a huge demand for a straight up ~10,000 words of descriptions.  

So, my question is which of these updates do you want to see 4.1 become? 2017-05-16 20:35:55 +0000 UTC View Post

Any interest in "Description Updates"?

This would simply be an update that adds ~10,000 words of pure descriptions.  Descriptions can include (but aren't limited to):

- Overall GF / biceps / legs  (could even add in compare chest/back)

- Workouts

- Feats of Strength

- Conversations

Early Access Period Has Begun!

Hi everyone,

I'm officially starting the Early Access Period!  The current build is in the same location as the beta (if you processed a $10+ pledge you should have received a message from me with a google drive link).  It is the file called "V4 - EA1"

You are...

Beta 4 released

Hey beta testers, Beta 4 has been released!  Same spot as the last few.  Big shout out to Sperics for catching all kinds of crazy stuff.  Since this was the biggest structural update yet, there was lots of weird bugs going around!

Definitely looking for feedback on small reasonable ...
