Today I’ve been working on Azra’s expedition for Tarkus. The first encounter is a two-headed goo. I wrote about 2500 words of content for some of her pre-combat options. Like last time, I’m trying to provide some methods to avoid having to fight her, which included two sex scenes. I started doing some planning for the combat itself. I’ve got to write the attacks, a loss scene (probably a single omnigender scene that’ll fuck your shit up), and a win scene with a lust-dump scene for each gender.

The second part will be lighter on combat and sex but have a puzzle element.

Finally there will be a group boss fight with some boytoys and a matron.

THEN I have to write stuff for the plants you save and Azra lewdness. Yeesh.

Ze plate, she is full!

0.7.83 Changelog:

  • Zeikfried’s male korgonne encounter has been added to Uveto’s encounter tables.

  • You can now give Syri your panties. For reasons.
  • Sam the Tech Specialist has been added to Gastigoth for those who have defeated her in Saendra’s quest.

Next up I’m going to look over the Korgonne pregnancy that came with them and possibly implement it. If all goes well, I’ll tag another changelog onto the bottom of this post in a few hours. Then I’m going to take a small break from coding submissions to tackle writing Azra’s Tarkus quest.

Thanks bras,

Hey guys,

Just a quick update on work for today – I coded most of a male korgonne encounter. Got the combat working and tested, even. Then I roughed out and wired up the victory scenes. Tomorrow the loss scenes will be polished up and a new build released. Oh, I also go the bust for the Naleen Brothers encounter (part of Azra’s expedition) set up.

Ciao,
F

Hi, folks, Savin here filling in for Fen while he’s off at GenCon.

I recently finished up a pretty hefty new quest for Myrellion, for those of you inclined to side with the Red Myr (or who want to undermine them from inside). It clocks in at a little over 42,000 words, with a pretty complex web of potential endings — plus the usual array of mid-quest scenes and badends. And you get to fight a tank. I’m pretty proud of that fight, if it gets in-game looking anything like how I designed it.

Now that that pretty massive chunk of work is done with, the next big thing on my plate is a long-overdue update for everyone’s favorite ausar gamer girl. (And I seriously mean overdue. I think I first started thinking about a Syriquest when I was still in college. Fuck…) Specifically, a quest to find out whatever did happen to that other guy in the transporter accident, and maybe a few other mysteries along the way. The end goal is to set up Syri to be available for Steele’s crew, though that will come afterwards in a different expansion. Writing crewmembers is almost like writing them over from scratch sometimes, though at least Syri’s existing sex scenes are all set aboard the ship already.

While that’s my big project for the next little while, I’m going to try and churn out the pregnancy stuff for the Galactic Prison (how’re y’all liking that, by the way?), as well as making Zaalt appear there. And right before he left, Fen coded in Sam (the Pirate Techie from SaendraQuest 2) getting added to the prison, written by Night Trap and… that’s real hot stuff.

So yeah, that’s about it from me. I’m gonna try real hard not to make any new waifus (God help me), until Fen makes a new planet at least, and focus on expanding and developing existing characters for the next good while. Reaha and Shade are high priorities, and Saendra’s got a whole quest planned to finish out her storyline… but by the time I finish SyriQuest I’ll probably want to take a break from big, complicated quests. So nice, wholesome cowgirl sex (lol) seems like a good bet for afterwards.

Take care and stay safe out there, bras. 🙂

[Backers] Time To Turn The Paige On This Chapter of TiTS

…By which I mean Paige is more or less complete. As mentioned before, her sparring content is not exactly as her author originally envisioned, instead replaced by a simple minigame that rewards learning her tells. Once Paige gets her eyes back though, you’ll find her a more challenging foe who sometimes avoid choreographing her next move…

Thanks for your kind patience and support as I have slogged through over 200 pages of content on this character. I’m going to apologize in advance for any bugs, typos, or errors in scene routing ahead of time. She was a real behemoth with a lot of little widgets to tweak and adjust, and I’m as certain as a Throbb-addict’s boner that even her author missed a few tweaks and adjustments that probably need made to account for her follower status – we can clean those up as they’re reported.

Remember that while I try to run through all the content I code, there’s many things that can go wrong. We need you to report bugs (via the bug report forums) so that we can make the game better for everyone involved, especially new players. Thank you, and <3.

0.7.82 Changelog:

  • Paige now has a sparring minigame with six new sex scenes.
  • The PC can now buy Paige new eyes. Warning: they’re overpriced as fuck and not really intended to be purchased by current level PCs. (It’s amazing how many crew members are obtainable by paying for expensive things. That’s pretty much the plan I have for Shekka and Emmy both.)
  • Paige’s first time lovemaking now properly tracks scene flow.
  • A few tweaks to the fan-submitted custom bust system. No I’m not going to make a guide for it. That’s up to yooooouuuuuuuu~
  • Many fixed typos, adjusted turns of phrase, and gently massaged letters.

I made an attempt to code in Paige’s sparring… then discarded it for a simplified, paper-rock-scissors style minigame. The original was overly complex while simultaneously not very fun. It basically boiled down to “Smugglers can win and everyone else gets their face punched in.” After finishing up that, I started in on her follower content. I hope to have her completed for your playing pleasure sometime within the next 24 hours.

Rock on,
Fen

[Backers] 0.7.81 Paiging New Content

0.7.81 Changelog:

  • Paige’s oral options are now live and good to go.
  • Busts for Azra and the 9-tailed Zil have been added.
  • Adev’s custom bust feature has been added on a trial basis. If there are any issues with it (or we wind up drowning in bug reports as a result), we may remove it.
  • Some assorted fixes for various bugs.
  • Paige’s [Eyes] talk is still broken. Don’t do it. (Sorry I keep forgetting to fix it)

Paige Update: I got through the rest of her sex content and started work setting up her sparring content. While that document is the shortest out of all of them, it’s also going to be the slowest going. Also there’s the small matter of Friday afternoons stealing me away for the weekend… At the very least, I can get her completely done early-ish next week. Her crew-member stuff doesn’t add any new sex scenes, just variances to many of her old non-sexual behaviors. Hooray for small favors!

My gut instinct is to say that this is a smaller update, but it adds something like 20 pages of new content on top of some stuff Jacques00 and UpcastDrake merged in. Progress is progress, right?

…I remember when 20 pages was a huge update.

0.7.80 Changelog:

  • Paige’s tribadism scenes have been added.
  • Anno’s feather duster stuff has been added by UpcastDrake.
  • Jacques00 added an improvement to our error reporting function.
  • Various tweaks and fixes.

I’m slowly losing my mind but making solid progress. The flowcharts actually helped me out at one point, if you can believe it. B uses a lot of non-standard methods of communicating logic flow that slow me down a little, but it’s easy enough to parse. Thus far, 69 pages of Paige’s 151 page sex document are done. There are two other documents on the pile as well. One with content for sparring and one with the rest of content for getting her new eyes and making her a crewmate.

Some compromises did get made – the biggest was poor support for swiss-army crotches – between the amount of text and variations to handle, I settled for making everything run off your primary penis rather than trying to juggle another thing to track on top of already chaotic scene arguments.

All that said, I think you guys will like the way things are done here, assuming options I got done aren’t too buggy.

0.7.79 Changelog:

  • Paige and her Yoga studio are available on the residential deck of Tavros. You’ll have to do a few Yoga lessons with her before you can meet her at her place. Thus far her interactions are fairly limited and yoga offers no stat gains aside from tone boosts. I might give it a more indepth pass later, but the bonuses listed in her original document were quite powerful for the cheapness and availability.
  • Jacques00 implemented the Breedwell Incubation center before I finished reviewing it. What I had looked at seemed pretty good, but be aware that since it has not yet received official Fen approval that it may be changed if needed in the future.
  • Many fixes, mostly courtesy of Jacques00.

I’ve had some time to work on Paige stuff today. Got some things for doing yoga in her house wired up with the proper menu and started work on the interactions for bedding her the first time. The result? 1,200 lines of code just to rough out the basic scenes and logic. I still need to wire up all the menus and replace some placeholder if-checks with appropriate conditionals, then test the whole mess.

Then I get to move into her repeatable scenes… which each have their own flowchart full of logic. Looking back at the source document… I’m on page 38 of 151. Here’s one of them, if you’d like a peek:
