Development Update #41 - February 05, 2018 (Patreon)

First of all, sorry for not being active during the second half of last week.
I got this shit flu and I've been laying in bed with fever the whole weekend. But thanks to modern medicine and gallons of tea, I'm better now. I still don't have a voice, but at least I can type ;)

So to catch up a bit, I'm going to put up a few posts today. The Elite tier gets to vote 2 times today, and one more poll coming up for them this week.

I'm also posting a poll for Scientist tier and above, more on that a bit later.

So this month I'm planning to re-release EP10 with an updated UI and some additional features. I'm updating all the backend code (hopefully) one final time so everything should fit with the new features and heading into the penultimate episode.
I've been getting requests for some additional quality of life improvements, so I talked to my coder and asked him to make it happen this month.

The list of new features:

• New UI
• Scene replay
• Nameable save files
• Achievements (this is in concept phase, not 100% yet)
• Separate Extras menu
• Bonus Unlockables

Scene replay, you already know what it is. This will serve as an indicator as well, to see which scenes you have missed.

The save files has been asked a number of times, maybe this will make it a  bit easier to keep track of your routes.

Achievements are something I want to have, but I'm not entirely sure if it's practical. Probably not. I might put in one or two just for the goofs.

The separate extras menu will solve the issue of extra scene just popping up out of context at the end of the episode or in between here and there.
Once you reach the end of each episode in-game, the extra scenes of that episode will unlock and you can view them from this new extras menu.

This will also integrate the Holiday Special into the main game, and you'll be able to start it separately, and save files won't interfere anymore.

Bonus unlockables will be things like the "one-off" images I post here, but this way you don't have to save it to some "A+ pr0n collection" folder on your drive.

So basically this is a big cleaning up update to make things more organized and into a more polished state.

If you have anything else you want implemented like these improvements, tell me in the comments below and I'll put it in the game. (only if it's plausible of course)

Now about the poll for the Scientist tier and above.

I was planning to host a contest over at hentai-foundry for a while now, but I wasn't sure if you guys would be interested in it.
So the concept is that any artist could enter the contest, and they'd have to draw (yeah, no 3D) Dreams of Desire related content.
I thought this would be a good time so you guys would get some lewds while waiting for EP11.

To make things a bit more interesteing, you guys would be able to vote here on Patreon and decide who will win!
(I shamelessly stole the voting idea from SlutWriter, check out their page, I heard it's good smut)

So I'll post the poll after this post to see if you guys are interested or not.

I've been typing this for quite a long time now, I hope I didn't miss anything.

And as always, a huge thank you for all your amazing support! You guys rock!
