Update - Hirai, Nobuko & Shizu, plus so much more (Patreon)
Content
tl;dr - Big update! Lots to say! There's all sorts of new content coming in the future releases that I already have mostly prepared, plus Lord Goblin is getting closer.
First, if you're not a $10 patron you probably already saw this, but there's a new free version of PAT available to play with threesome dates available!
This week's images
This shot comes from a new interactive scene I've got planned (and more or less finished) for the next release. I've experimented with some interesting ways to make this interactive even though it's a message Shuji gets on his phone. I used several tricks to simulate not just a "video" filter, which I've used before (and designed myself, btw) but also a pinch and zoom (also my own effect) which I think is pretty neat.
There's also an animation I made for the scene! And along with some good audio design I hope you'll agree I made a single angle shot into an effective scene.
I've also included the next three pages of the $12 tier PAL comic!
There's a bunch more and a new page every week if you like what you see. The new pages are a bit denser, by the way - if I were remaking these three pages I'd probably make them all panels on one multi-panel page.
Lastly, I added a little Nobuko bonus image - she's got an idea for Valentine's Day...
Also in the next release
I've mostly got the next release done, so I know it will also include a new interactive plot scene (movie night with the ladies) which will only trigger if Mika is unlocked. I'm planning to add in more non-sexual scenes around the house, too, just to give the characters and the environment a bit more texture. I just have to be mindful not to overload the apartment with stuff that then has to be loaded in every time the apartment loads, because that could really slow down game performance.
Beyond that, I'm including a big batch of new phone messages - there's new ones for all four currently available girls, with two new standard image messages each and one new Hirai image message each, for a total of 12 new sexy messages to find across the game. I tinkered a little with the order of the old ones, just to make sure these ones will show up a little bit earlier than the very end of the current message chains - I pushed some of the less interesting, text-only ones to the back of the chains.
Work for the future
I'm still trying to stay ahead of schedule, so I've done some more work on the Emi/Nobuko threesome dates, which I'd like to finish and release for April, but we'll see how that goes. That'll be a big release if I do and I've got some follow-up material I can drop in after that for May if I stay on track that way.
I also made a new interactive scene this week, which is done apart from the voice acting, which is a blow job scene from Nobuko & Shizu, if you've got their threesome. I think it's pretty good and will be a nice thing to put in the May release (I should have the voicing and editing done by then) alongside the threesome wake ups. I'll show more of all that stuff when I'm closer to releasing it.
It's really nice to have some leeway with releases, because when I feel like the pressure is off and I can just come up with whatever interests me day to day, that's when I think I do my best work.
Lord Goblin
Oh, and while this isn't a Lord Goblin Patreon, I might as well give you a little news because I think the founding of the LG Patreon might be coming soon! (Finally.) We've been putting together a kind of sampler demo with a gameplay slice, character bios, the start of the story and an animated sex scene, that I hope will really impress you!
So all that stuff is mostly what I've been up to lately. What do you think? What upcoming stuff sounds the most interesting to you? Let me know in the comments below!
