Hello, dear supporters!

I hope this message finds you all well. I’m excited to share the latest developments from the past week. Apologies for the slight delay—I had some real-life matters to attend to yesterday.

Drunken Monkey Events Completed

Last week, I wrapped up the Drunken Monkey events, bringing them to full completion. Following that, I updated the bedtime events by integrating the use of toys and added skip options for longer sequences like inserting and removing toys. This enhancement aims to improve gameplay flow and user experience.

Sandra’s Events

I finished working on Sandra’s events, creating two new screens dedicated to foreplay and play. These screens are similar to the bedtime scenes but come with new event indicators to make them more engaging. 



Red-Light District Enhancements

All events in the Red-Light District have been updated. I’ve slightly modified the sequence of events to make them clearer and more immersive.


Jackie’s New Animated Event

I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve post-processed and added the game code for Jackie’s new event. As previously mentioned, this event focuses heavily on animations—comprising 38 static renders and 116 animations. I’ve experimented with a new approach: instead of one long animation, I’ve created several shorter ones grouped into one image set. There’s also a zoom button that allows you to focus on areas of interest in the current animation.

Your feedback on this feature is crucial. If you like it, it could become the new standard moving forward. Otherwise, I’m open to returning to the previous method.


Automation Improvements

This new approach for handling animations didn’t take much extra time, thanks to some automation enhancements. I previously used batch files with ffmpeg commands, placing them in the same folder as the image sequence, making minor edits, and launching them. While this was straightforward, I’ve made it even easier.

I utilized ChatGPT to help me create an application that streamlines this process from a single interface. It would take a few days of coding, while ChatGPT generated functional code by the third attempt. Without needing to delve deep into the code, the application works flawlessly and saves me valuable time.

Night Club Updates

I’ve updated the Night Club area by adding two new animated screens featuring various activities. These additions aim to enrich the gameplay experience and offer more interactive content.



Glory Hole Event Addition

Additionally, I’ve added a new screen for the Glory Hole events to expand on the existing content.


Other Repeatable Activities

I’ve completed the remaining repeatable activities, such as using buttplugs and Ben-Wa balls. I’ve also modified the meal preparation screen by adding a skip button, which I think will come in handy for smooth gameplay. When pressed, Lisa will go to the grocery store if she has no meal and cook something without your supervision, thereby increasing her cooking skills.


Scripted Events and Day Cycle Optimization

With all sandbox content finished, I’ve moved on to scripted, non-repeatable events. I consolidated all functions that manage day cycles into a single, more efficient function. Previously, multiple functions managed between one to six game days, which was inefficient. This new approach streamlines the process significantly.

As of now, I’ve completed everything up to Day 24. Only the last two days remain to be checked!

Upcoming Content and Testing

Next on the agenda is creating a small watersport event for the math test, along with a tutorial and achievements. Once these are completed, I’ll be able to start testing!

Approaching Release

We’re getting closer and closer to the release, and I couldn’t be more excited. Your support and feedback have been invaluable throughout this journey.

That’s all for this update. Thank you all for your continued support, and I hope you’re doing well.

Warm regards,

Your zegamez

Really really excited to read this!
This is the 1st game I've bought, and the only one than excite my brain like my body. Continue like this and maybe script more:

  • events with the volleyball boy (gangbxx maybe)
  • events on the lavatory (group showers and so on)
  • events on the night club (her show maybe)
  • events on the sex shop with the owner

Tx for your works
