2/13 Status Update
🕑 Added 2022-02-13 19:38:46 +0000 UTCWith Naked Ambition .74 recently released, my main attention is on TF Card Battle 1.2. My plan is to release that update at the same time as the new The Monster Within update later this month. There's only about 2 weeks left though, so it will be a little tight. The $10 preview should be out very soon with the test build probably about a week after.
After that, I'll start work on Naked Ambition .8. We've been in the .7 dev cycle for a while now, but the timeline is finally expanding with .8. That update will end with another ball, and that ball signifies the end of the "normal" gameplay. After that will be the end game which features whatever crisis was set up at the end of the Festival of the Sun and will test all of the Princess skills. If the Princess and the kingdom survives the crisis, then it will be time for the vote the whole game has been building to and the endings.
But all that exciting stuff happens in .9, not .8. .8 is mostly setup. The ball will be fun, but besides that it's a fairly small update. One thing I am planning on doing though is changing how sexual random events and pink cards work. Since pink cards are useless ever since the corruption stat was added, I'm going to make a new function for them. Pink cards will be used to represent how "horny" the Princess is. The more pink cards in her subconscious, the more likely she will be to have sex with strangers. Random events will be changed to have different groups of events, rather than selecting from a single list. If the Princess has high sexual reputation, sexual random events will be more likely and whether or not she engages with that will be based on her pink card count. If she has high combat reputation she will be more likely to see events involving a challenge to a duel, etc.
I haven't 100% decided exactly how this system will work, but I think it will be a good to both utilize pink cards and tailor the Princess's experience more towards her personality and successes/failures.
I also have been working with my new artist. Here's some of their first work.
My hope is that the transition between them will be fairly seamless. Because the art is rotoscoped things like body proportions and facial structures should be consistent, so it's more of a matter of shading and such.
That's all for this week. As always thank you for your continued support.
