That’s right. We don’t learn from our mistakes. We double down on them and repeat them as often as possible. Let’s make the holidays something special! (Also, if for any reason you didn’t get your prize from the Halloween contest, please hit me up at fenoxo@gmail.com).
Got your attention huh? Check out the prizes:
- The best-written entry will score a sweet $500, to be paid out via paypal, (or up to $300 in Blizzard store gift cards).
- Second prize will get pegged with $250 cash (via paypal), or $150 in online vidjagames.
- Third prize will be pounded with $100 cash (via paypal), or $75 in online interactive electronic video entertainment through one of the aforementioned storefronts.
- Any other submission we choose to use will be offered up to $50 in cash (via paypal) or $50 dollarydoodles in Blizzard fun.
Pretty awesome right? You could probably squeeze a box full of over-priced sex-toys under your tree for that amount! Or a game riddled with microtransactions! Maybe you could even afford to buy full access to the internet once net neutrality bites it.
Tainted Space XXX-Mas Contest Rules:
- Standard event submission terms apply.
- No minimum or maximum length, but be aware that a 300 page manuscript could very easily lose out to a five page document of pure, distilled awesome.
- All content should not leave any major hanging hooks. That is to say that if you end a scene with an NPC promising something more in the next encounter, and don’t write a next encounter, you’ll be penalized. It should obviously conclude so that players aren’t left chasing nothing.
- Effective parser usage is encouraged but not mandatory. Learning all the parsers is too great a task to ask of anyone on their first go-round.
- Content should not contain any content unsuitable for TiTS. This includes hyper-detailed gore, hard vore, loli, shota, etc.
- Events can be sillier than normal so long as they’re silly-mode only.
- All submissions should be holiday themed: Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanza, Winter Solstice, and big gay polar bears sharing lines of coke are all okay. Maybe not the last one quite so much.
- Employees are not eligible to enter. (Though any employee that writes Holiday stuff we can use is welcome to get a full day of pay on XXX-Mas for the effort.)
- Entries will be judged by a panel including Fenoxo & Savin, though judges are subject to change. Please note that if we feel the submission would not be up to usable quality for the game, we may disqualify it before reading all 150 pages in order to judge the rest of the entries in a reasonable time.
- All entries must be submitted by December 15th in the appropriate forum thread.
- Happy Holidays!
You forgot to change the holiday for the 8th point
Nope! Everything is fine. No poor copy/paste job here!
Understood, must have been a trick of the eyes ( ‘ – ‘)b
//Cracks knuckles// //winces// It’s time…
Is it OK to write submissions involving Dr. Badger? I’m aware the character has an owner, but I don’t recall if they’re cool with others using her. I thought it might be fun to write a holiday bimbofication scene.
Badger has been had content from people that isn’t her original author.
PexigaQuest has her involved in most of the quest if you hadn’t gotten her arrested.
Now who would go and get poor Dr. Badger arrested? All she wants is to make people very, very happy. XD
On a side note. Would be pretty cool if she did turn the PC into a slutty X-mas deer, and then told to go and spread merry Christmas love.
Hey fen unrelated question but is there away to reverse the goo body manipulation or purge it (like with a cheat code) as i don’t want to restart the game or break it by messing with the code since despite only taking two pills i have the option to manipulate steele chest and height which is annoying to say the least
It says it’s permanent on the lable when you get it. And in your inventory. And I’m pretty sure Zo’dee says it as well.
Suffice to say, it’s permanent.
Maybe later down the line in development, but I don’t think there is atm
It also says in bold letters that it is maybe irreversible with the big clue being mayb which means that the option to change the effects is still valid with the penalty could be paying a huge sum of credits to reverse the tough gooey effects.
It’s IRREVERSIBLE. Not ‘maybe’, there is NO ‘maybe’.
As in you CANNOT undo it. And if you were to, it’d have to be done with save-editing only, which is kinda hard in itself.
Once you turn to goo, you can’t reverse it.
Read better.
But why is that tf permanent and not the other lot since it makes NO GOD DAMN SENSE. Why can i get a horse dick and easily change it to a cat or dog dick without any problems but i want to change my hair to normal hair or plants but nope the goo is stopping the transformation why didn’t the horse dick fight the transformation process. Which Is a huge problem as their was no point to the immune booster steele took at the start of the game. either all of it is permanent or none of it.
Also from the wiki
It comes with a warning in big, bold print: MAY BE IRREVERSIBLE. It must be harder to turn a goo-person into a regular person than the other way around…
Which means it’s not impossible its just that it hasn’t been done before aka spending a shit ton of credits to reverse it. Read Better
It says maybe because the game is from the perspective of the PC. It’s up to you to use your critical thinking skills in an effort to analyze everything that the PC takes in. Whenever the game implies something bad or otherwise might happen, it definitely happens. Also, it’s permanent because it can be.
Alright cool so how do I save edit and will it break the game in any major ways like saying things like she rubs your null or insert cock type here
Save editor I use: https://github.com/Chase-san/TiTsEd/releases
It possible I’ve done it though you’ll still be stuck with some thing such as the skin or hair but usually u can make that go away by going to Dr badger and being bimbofied then taking several draco guard to change ur skin to scales work for me
To turn something goo into human would be so much harder then turning human into goo, the scientist would have to find a way to fully solidify you without freezing you solid, and then find a way to manipulate your dna that makes whatever solidification stays and doesnt go back to goo, which is beyond even dr.badger’s skills as it seems. (plus i doubt she would be willing to do it if she could) unless you want something involving magic, which isnt what this game is about, its not gonna be possible.
I think a more suiting name would be “Merry Titsmas”
Yeah, the XXX-mas makes me think of: “This ain’t Christmas! A XXX-parody!”
Chaurmine makes me think of a male Helia.
Would New Years be an acceptable holiday or should we stick with the holidays listed?
Seems fine to me.
Oh man so heavy on the extrinsic rewards lol
i kinda wish i had the skills to make a character come alive in the “now”. i can make excellent backgrounds for single characters, or weapons/companies, but actually making them come alive? forget it.
on that note, would putting weapons, and the company that made them, be alright for a submission? not an event one obviously.
A question, good sir. What is the etiquette on writing scenes involving existing NPCs that might have been written by other people? The rules don’t seem to specify.
Write it and hope you do a good job of representing the character. If you don’t, it won’t get in.
Regarding the contest, do we absolutely have to include sex scenes in our submissions? I was thinking maybe a lovey-dovey scene with one of your partner (or a random monster you had had sex with) would be nice. Something heartwarming insted of arousing.
I’d expect such a submission to be marked down heavily, but not rejected out of hand. The hardest thing to do in any submission is the bits-mashing – if you just decided to skip doing it entirely, you’d be judged accordingly.
Upcast ?: @Fenoxo Is the grading criteria the same i.e. you’ll get a 0 for one of your scores if there’s no sex?
Fenoxo: Probably. Tho I think I gave pumpkin carving a high score and swapped the category for cuteness on it.
Fenoxo: Savin mighta given it a 0
Upcast ?: Someone was asking if they just did a lovely dovey thing with a character if it’d be penalized for context
Fenoxo: It’ll deffo be fighting an uphill battle
Goddamit, now i cant stop imagining a big gay polar bear making it snow. His name is Alphonse and he speaks with a german accent when he isnt making it snow he sells guns and kills pirates. He wears sleveless muscle shirts and he tells horrible puns about bearing arms and the only thing he loves more than killing blackvoid is taking it up the butt. He just got away off a major mecenary contract and now hes blowing off steam and sharing the wealth. Arrrghh Make it stop.
Bizarrely specific.
sounds like we need this in game along with a polar bear tf.
ooh! there should totally be a scene with Shade! (in sister mode) maybe have a VERY awkward dinner with an oblivious Shade and an angry Amara, then after enough eggnog…shenanigans!
That gif is top teir, I was laughing my ass off
>and big gay polar bears sharing lines of coke are all okay. Maybe not the last one quite so much
inb4 that is the winning entry
I really wish I was a better writer so I could be apart of this.
And funnily enough, it’s not for the money.
I would just love having some specific content added to this great series.
Stuff like Steele waking up to a christmas tree with a bunch of toys underneath and the character who brought them on board. Proceeded by the kinkiest toy-fest ever before it’s revealed that said character only rented the toys, meaning Steele doesn’t get to keep them.
Or maybe a Holiday orgy showing characters that have never interacted before having fun together, Like Kiro with Shade.
Or it could be a Steele family reunion if Shade is revealed to be related, which would include Jill/Jack, Shade, Astra and *spoilers*. And of course it’d lead to a Christmas Miracle.
Well, if you have the idea, and you have the money, you could always try to get it commissioned…
Rented sex toys?
Even with futuristic sterilization and sanitation I only have one thing to say: EWWW!
That being said…maybe a winter-themed SSTD the happens as a result of rushing to get as many as possible…
Hi! I have two questions!
1.) The scene should be similar to the ones in-game, yes? Like, with different dialogue options for, ‘look’, at Character, to get flavor text, and with different lewd scenes depending on what Steele has, like a dong or pussy?
2.) Should the scene involve a character that is already in game, like with Vaughn? Or, are we allowed to create a character for said scene?
Thanks, again! <3 Happy Holidays, guys! <3
1) Yarp.
2) Whichever!
I’m gonna actually enter this one!
What exactly is required for us to submit for a combat encounter? What actions does an NPC need and what flavor text?
“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas~”
very white. :p
Who is the purple chick in the picture?
Tamani, specifically the TiTS Reincarnation of the CoC one.
Unfortunately I spent all my creative juices on the Halloween submission and my stuff didn’t even get in. I wouldn’t even have been sad if you didn’t pay me, getting badass power armor and a chance to fuck Holiday would be enough payment for me.
Anyway, to those who will be submitting things… Do butt stuff, please… I need it in my life… Butts are my only life support.
You like that Sir Mixalot song, don’t you?
Merry slaaneshmas.
Island of misfit sex toys, that’s what my brain first thinks of
If it’s okay to ask, can we write the scenario with the PC as long as they’ll have no long term connections? I wanted to try and write something with the PC and Tamani, but I don’t know if it would be okay. Of course, I’d try and do something for male, female, and futa, but I just wanted to check first.
Uh, yeah, you *have* to use the PC.
Oh I meant if we could use a character who technically hasn’t appeared (since Tamani only appears if you buy her bionahole), but if that’s ok then thanks!
It’s not even worth to try. These guys just need big tits and huge butts and that’s all. Everyone with these two, will win. They don’t care about anything else.
Nice cynical-ism there
I mean, yeah it’s really defeatist, but it’s also kinda true. I made (in my opinion) a really great submission for Halloween but because it was too intricate they didn’t even consider it.
There was gonna be a boss fight, badass power armor, dragon ass, and the ability to have both Tam wolf and Seigwulf at the same time. Plus Holiday would finally be sexable and it was an option for people who don’t want to be transformed.
There was even a VR helmet that’d let you replay all the Poe A content as many times as you want.
Can you say there’s not a single thing worthy of being in the game?
No hard vore?? So soft vore and unbirth good??
Can you not?
Vore is disgusting, even if it is soft.
Fucking ew. Just no.
if it’s like that turtle lady from coc, I’m ok with it. Like spending a night inside her pussy in uveto or something. but I want nothing that ends up with me either being absorbed or being digested.
Soft vore you don’t have to be digested. We already have one soft vore in Tits.
It doesn’t matter how much money you have, if the net neutrality laws get revoked then none of us will be able to pay for it all. The more sites and apps you use, the higher the cost will possible be. Sites and apps that were once free could cost you money just because you use internet to use them.
Is anyone else having issues with the forums being unbearably slow or even not working at times?
i dunno about anyone else, but i wanna bang that elf.
Question about character usage.
Are we allowed to use established characters? I’m interested in trying to do something with Sera
i can`t seem to find Ula on uveto anywhere or the dryad costume att poe a. Are they still being worked on?
Pretty sure they’re in the backers build friend. Of course if that’s what you have then my comment is irrelevant.
I hope to see some submissions that include scenes for tauric Steele.
