Hi


I know it's been a while since the last public release.

Honestly, I kept forgetting to do one.

But to make up for that, I'm releasing a somewhat later version.



What's new:

The Dana+ Andrea getaway event.

The Jessica+Dana date

Second Jessica confession

Two new randoms, one with Dana at the office, and one with Jessica at home.

Mila branch of the Maria repeatable date.

Dana+Maria+Mila date.



I think that's it. I might have forgotten something.

Hi guys



Dreaming of Dana version 0.034 is out now.


First some screens:

[URL='http://i.imgur.com/yUJuR6Il.png%5b/img']http://i.imgur.com/yUJuR6Il.png[/img[/URL]]


What's new: Implemented random events 3 of then so far

Dana 2 day getaway scene

Completed new menus and image maps

Partial implementation of new office backgrounds



How does the game work:

You interact with the girls at the office and when their affection and sexuality is high enough, as well as certain conditions are triggered, certain scenes open up.



Other notes:

For those who want to use the console, it works like this. Press Shift+0 during gameplay, then type the name of the character and the stat (one word) that you wish to change, then the equal sign, and the value. EX: ( Jessicaaffection = 25). And voila.

Also note that not all scenes are triggered by stats alone, some also need certain conditions to be filled.




As always please leave a comment, bug report, etc....

And if you like the game please consider supporting me on Patreon

What fetishes are you planning to have in this game?

I noticed quite a few grammar mistakes. Maybe go through the texts to see what they were.

Also, you mention on your profile you plan on making a game with an Egyptian prince in the Hellenistic period, but the Ptolemy's were a Greek family ruling Egypt during this period. So how is your idea going to work?

Thanks for the comment.

Sorry about the grammar mistakes.
English is not my first language, but I'll try to fix them for the next patch.

When regards to the fetishes, I'm not exactly sure.
Except for Dana, for whom the story is pretty much set in stone as far as I'm concerned. I have her every scene planned out.
The rest of the characters are pretty malleable. Maria is an older woman with a husband, so infidelity will probably be in there.
And Jessica is younger and I see her as a more naive and innocent character.
But if you want a fetish to be incorporated in the game (except for Dana, as I said, she is set in stone) let me know. I'll see if I can make it happen.

As for your question, when I said Egyptian prince I meant Ptolemaic prince, hence the name Ptolemy. Sorry if that caused any confusion.

Best regards

Hi.
Great job with the game so far.

Aside from the text errors, I think there's some problem with the renderization of some of the scenes. The darker ones have much noise, I would try increasing the ambient lightning.

Also the lightning itself seems a bit inconsistent between the different moments of the scene in the archive room.

Keep up the good work.

Thank you for your comment.

The text errors will be fixed in the next patch.

As for the lighting, I think I've mastered it now. Those renders were some of the first I did, and there is certainly a learning curve.
The new ones are much better.
I may get around to redoing them on day, but not very soon I think.
Right now I'm focusing on creating the scenes for the next patch.


Best regards

Hi guys


Dreaming of Dana version 0.02 is out now.
zacFSoK.jpg

What's new:
Added simple little days of the week and time of day counter ( weekends are not there yet)
Completely rewritten the code in a more modular fashion ( it will allow me to add scenes more easily in the future)
Navigation is now done through imagemaps, not completely though ( fewer menus)
Opened up most of the rooms in your apartment (there is not much to do there yet)
Opened up most of the office
Added a few new story scenes and a few new sex scenes
Introduced Maria ( there are no scenes with her yet, you just get to do regular interactions)


How does the game work:
You interact with the girls at the office and when their affection and sexuality is high enough, as well as certain conditions are triggered, certain scenes open up.

What to expect in the next update:
The introduction of a phone
Jessica
And of course more scenes

When will the next update be?:
Sometime in mid January, I'm not sure.
I'm getting myself a new GPU this Christmas that will allow me to render much faster (that's my main bottleneck right now).

Other notes:
Right now the only way to get Dana's sexuality higher is to go dancing with her and Andrea.
I'm leaving for the holidays and won't do any work on the game for at least a week, but I'll try to keep in touch with you guy on Patreon and on the forums.
Please remember that this is very much an alpha game, a lot of stuff is unfinished and there will be bugs.


Future plans:
Right now there are almost 50 scenes planed for this game and my main focus is on releasing as many of them as fast as possible.
Only when I've released about 20 scenes will I start focusing a little more on gameplay.


As always please leave a comment, bug report, etc....

I was told about a few bugs and tried to find them all.
Found 2 game stopping ones
One in the conversation with Maria in the cafeteria and one when asking Dana to join Andrea dancing.
Fixed them plus a few other minor bugs
I hope I got them all, but I can't be sure.
And please, when reporting bugs, post the error or give me a few details.
New link: https://mega.nz/#!A1tWyCKY!pUTGmdj3gD9He92HPHGDbKr853NhOX48REG5zo-swxo
Note that the 0.02 patch is not save game compatible
I had to rewrite most of the code, so old saves won't work
Best regards

I'm not getting the option to ask out Dana after she asked if I would. Not sure if that's the cause.

Damn that was a quick reply! Thanks, and thanks for the upcoming fix. I just tried out your game for the first with this most recent update and I'm eager to play it, looks good.

Thank you for your kind words.

There is no ending to it yet.

The code runs in a circular fashion, and when certain requirements are met it opens new scenes for you.

As far as sex scenes,by girl there are:
1) Andrea : 2 at the office, 2 at the club and one together with Dana also at the club
2) Maria: 2 at the office, one at the restaurant and one together with Dana at their place
3) Jessica: one at the end of the ex boyfriend line, and one at her studio

So I don't know, did you get all of those? If so, that's it for now.

Really enjoying the game so far. You've got an impressive vocabulary that seems to really fit with this wealthy family.

Just a bit of clarification for the two scenes for Andrea (at club) and Maria (at office). When you say two are you referring to the two options for sex when you initiate? Or am I missing some scenes?

Thank you for your kind words.

What I mean when I say 2 scenes are the first time Chris has sex with them, and the repeatable scene. You can't repeat the first scene.
For example the first Maria office sex scene is triggered by having her sexuality at 10 and pressing the 'do some work button', after that the way to initiate an office sex scene is to ask Maria in her office. They are not the same scenes.

I hope I've answered your questions, if not let me know

The game is going to the coding crash screen at "What do you want to do, go home or wonder around the office" at the end of the work day.

Can you post the error?
Just click copy to clipboard and paste it here if you can. Without that I don't think I can help you.

Suggestion:

I would either spoiler or resize the screenshots. Their massive size makes the thread long to load and kind of a pain to scroll through.

That error happens when renpy is having trouble recognizing a new variable.

Either start a new game or press ignore.

Hi,
I'm several weeks into the game and haven't encountered the character Jessica at all.
How do I meet her? Where? What are the requirements?

You need to have the Maria + Dana date first.

The day after, Dana show up at work with Jessica.
