Impregnation Discussion (Patreon)
Content
Alright. In this long, ramble post, I wanted to gather all of my plans for the impregnation features, talk about how theyll work, get peoples feedback and have a discussion about it in general.
Ill start with my plans. The main story for this game (without going too deep into spoilers) will feature impregnation/pregnancy as one of the core focuses. Its got important gameplay mechanics connected to it. Its got important choices (with consequences) tied to it. A lot of the characters (especially the men) will be obsessed with it. And it will have visual variances in Tiffany (and other characters) appearance.
All that being said, it will still be possible to play the game through without getting pregnant once. In the same way that its possible to get through the game without having sex once. So for people who dont like the pregnancy theme, if you make sure to stock up on birth control (Unconceivable), or morning-after-pills (will be added in a later version), or seek out an abortion anyway, you get the idea. There will be plenty of ways to avoid getting pregnant or going through with pregnancy if thats what you want.
But for the rest of us perverts Im sure we cant wait to get all the girls knocked up and bred ;)
So how will it work? Well in simple terms, Tiffany (along with all other Characters of all genders) have a fertility rating. Tiffanys fertility can temporarily (resets with sleep) enhance or decrease her fertility using certain items, like the ones introduced so far. Tiffanys hormones will also play a small role, temporarily increasing her fertility when she becomes a slut for a new type of man/creature/enemy to represent her body subconsciously submitting and preparing itself for breeding and ovulation. When Tiffany sleeps, her fertility will fluctuate randomly either slightly increasing or decreasing by the time she wakes up. Since pregnancies will occur over shortened period of time (due to the in-game time not surpassing 9 months probably) Im not going to be using complicated phases and cycles to determine things. It will be simple enough to be enjoyable and not overwhelming to develop, but complex enough that fans of the impregnation fetish should enjoy it well enough. :)
So, when having vaginal intercourse and cumming inside. The males fertility will be compared to the females fertility and if they reach beyond a certain threshold then the impregnation will be a success. Theres lots of variables involved but the biggest contributing factor is fertility. If you keep Tiffanys fertility close to 100 then she should get pregnant. However, at this stage. Only human men can impregnate women. This is because when men get infected with the virus, they die and then get reanimated as zombies. Unfortunately their sperm is dead too, meaning the zombies cant breed with the female characters for now! Without saying too much Ill just throw out the phrases Dr. Slater & Main Plot ;)
So, Tiffanys been successfully impregnated. What now? Well, the 7 day pregnancy cycle will begin and Tiffanys body will start to go through some changes. Waking up on the first day of the pregnancy cycle, Tiffanys breasts will have begun to produce milk and will now lactate when she orgasms or when her nipples are played with/sucked on. On Day 3, Tiffanys breasts will have grown and shell have a slight baby bump (shell no longer be able to wear her belt as its too tight for her). On Day 5, Tiffany will have a more noticeable baby bump and her breasts will have grown some more (shell no longer be able to wear her bikini top as it wont fit). On Day 7 her breasts will reach maximum capacity and shell have a large baby bump, shell do less damage with melee attacks, have less chance of dodging attacks, and will have reduced endurance. Shell give birth on the night of the 7th day.
Yes, thats a lot of variations for future scenes. But well find a way to manage. I think people would prefer to have the body transformations featured in some capacity than none at all. In any case. It will be manageable enough in the beginning since obviously I dont need to worry about those variations until we make the scenes from that day, etc. So well make those tougher decisions on what to focus on when we get to day 5-7ish in the story.
Of course there will be many side quests and character quests that relate to pregnancy. The Roberts Legacy quest is (funnily enough) all about Tiffanys relationship with Roberts brother: George. Hes the main merchant in Ashton Lake for buying and selling items and Tiffany will have to interact with him for a number of other quests as well. Whether or not she gave Robert the chance to impregnate her, and whether or not she actually was successfully impregnated, and then whether she was able to successfully deliver the baby to him. All these things have an effect on Tiffanys Relationship with that character. So if you didnt think Roberts impregnation offer would have such a big effect on the game think again :)
Alright, so what about the offspring while its growing inside of Tiffany during the 7 days? The child(or children if twins, etc) with have a health statistic. Incurring a lot of physical damage, or inserting a lot of big cocks (or objects) into Tiffanys womb will damage the health of the child. Tiffany can miscarriage this way. There will be people who can help or items Tiffany can take to restore the health of her growing, unborn baby. There will also be submit ways for Tiffany to convince her enemies to use her tits, throat, ass etc to help protect her child.
If Tiffany has a miscarriage or abortion, her baby belly will decrease immediately, and her breasts will revert to normal in reverse order of which they grew. There will be items or characters who can help keep Tiffanys breasts large and full of milk, if players want to go that option (as if you wouldnt :P).
What about birth? Well there will be some kind of scene here. I am thinking it will be necessary to return to somebody who can help deliver the baby like the doctors or the nurse on the 7th night. There will be some kind of birth scene. I havent considered it much. Ill let patrons decide how much, (if any) they want to see of that.
Afterwards there will be somebody at one of the safe zones (example, the Pharmacy) who can look after Tiffanys offspring while she continues her story. Children will mostly be a cosmetic thing. Like a baby room where they will stay in cots or whatever. Perhaps Tiffany can breastfeed them. Thats a long way off so well consider that when we get there.
Once shes given birth (or miscarriage/abortion) shell be free to get impregnated again starting that next day.
Alright. This was a super long post. But hopefully I remembered to cover everything. If not, ask questions in the comments below and Ill answer them.
And now is time for the discussion. What are your thoughts on this? Have I missed something important that youd like to see incorporated into this system? Are you interested in the planned impregnation content or not? Let me know! :)
