Tiffany's Proportions (Patreon)
Content
Hey guys, this another discussion/poll to gather people's feedback/opinions. This has nothing to do with v0.04, or even v0.05. But potentially will change the planned story events for v0.06.
I want to preface this by explaining that Tiffany will see her proportions get bigger on day 2 & 3 of her pregnancy/lactation, regardless. Exactly what changes her body will go through, and by how much is a topic for a later poll/discussion. I expect the morning of day 3 to begin with v0.07 so that will be the first possible time for Tiffany's breasts (or other parts) to grow bigger/expand.
So, what's this about then?
It's no secret that the vast majority of patrons seem to enjoy breasts on the larger size. As of now: Ali, Hitomi and Sydney all have larger breasts than Tiffany. I will add more characters in the future, some will have smaller breasts, some even smaller than Vanessa's. But the vast majority of future characters, will have their proportions decided by the votes of patrons. So far, the option with the largest proportions has always won by a large majority.
This is totally fine by me. I like ultra stacked girls with huge tits (clearly) so I have no problem with boobs getting too big or whatever. What doesn't sit quite right with me, is that the protagonist, Tiffany currently has the 4th largest chest out of the 5 current girls... And as more girls get added, she'll most likley continue to fall down that ladder.
I'm not sure I'd be entirely satisfied if pretty much every new girl that appears has bigger breasts than out main character. Yes, her breasts will grow if she's pregnant/lactating, (there will also be a drug that triggers the breast growth without the pregnancy/milk side effects in a future version.) but I also plan for other girls to have that happen as well (when they are pregnant/lactating).
That being said, I know there's probably sizeable portion of patrons, who like Tiffany just the way she is, and if given the choice, would prefer to keep her body proportions from growing too much where possible. I'm just not sure what proportion of those patrons exist.
Here is a potential idea I've been tossing around. It's not confirmed, just how I would go about addressing the issue of increasing her proportions in a "lore friendly" way moving forward. In v0.06, Tiffany would get captured by the enemy who would experiment on her, causing her body to change to the 3-day-pregnancy-cycle (due to the likley outcome of this poll), and also her proportions to be increased. This would give patrons the chance to decide on what changes they would like made to the proportions of Tiffany's base body (before the additional increases from pregnancy/lactation).
So, what's the catch?
If I did this, it would unfortunately not be optional. If I made it a choice, I'd have to once again double to amount of art variants I'd need to make. I've already committed to a 2-stage change in her body type (for pregnancy and lactation). If I had to also make art variations depending on whether or not Tiffany had her base proportions altered by the enemy, that's just too many variations to make. It'd be a nightmare to keep track of and versions would take much longer to come out. I'd love to do it, but it just isn't feasible with just me working on the game.
What this means is, it will not be an optional part of the game that Tiffany can avoid by wining a fight or choosing the correct options. It will be a compulsory story event that will change her base proportions from than point in the game on-wards, without being able to revert to her original proportions.
So, that's my question to you guys, for discussion. Knowing all of this, would you like to see Tiffany's proportions forcibly increased by the enemy in a non-optional, upcoming story event?
Like I said, this is not a definitive poll. I'd like to here your guys thoughts on the matter in the comments section. There are good reasons for both options. I would only do this if there is a large majority in favor of the increased proportions. I know a lot of people like Tiffany, and support the game because of her. I wouldn't want to ruin her for people if it would turn many patrons off from the project.
If I do decide to go ahead with this, there will be a follow up poll for $5+ patrons to decide on which changes should be made, this could include increases to the size of breasts, ass, lips, and more. There will be separate polls and discussions for that.
As much as I'd like to make a game with 1000 customization options for Tiffany. It simply isn't possible if I want versions to be released within reasonable intervals. Therefore, some strict decisions need to be made, and kept to, to keep the game's branching options from spiraling out of control and ruining the progression of the game's other aspects. The game is ambitious enough as it is without all of these customization options.
Thanks for your support and feedback on this. Be sure to let me know what you think, as well as your thoughts on Tiffany being the protagonist but having some of the smallest breasts? To me, that's the main reason why I think this might be a good idea, to 'correct' that before it's too late to do otherwise.
