Where Have I Been, What Have I been doing, What is the future?

Where Have I Been?

If you have been investigating my activity online you would find that I was somewhat active in F95 but I wasn't really posting here for quite some time, in fact no new game updates have been pushed out by me recently. Why is that? Well...

I am sure that a lot of people would use this excuse to avoid any responsability but in my case, I was sick, I still am somewhat. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is and I have been seeking medical assistance almost feverishly to get to the bottom of this. Unfortunately one of the symptoms is that I am tired, very tired, all the time. It's a kind of lethargy that I don't think I ever felt in my life, and sleeping the entire day is tempting but it doesn't help at all.

Being like this really hurts my productivity, not only in ero game dev but in all aspects of my life. Please be a little patient while I try to get out of this unpleasant situation, I'm already good enough to get back to creative work but I can't guarantee any crazy output.

I also took the extra duty of making a new NTS games list that's actually updated.
 

What about the games?

So, what about the games?

In short: I will continue making them! I have a lot of ideas that I'm willing to put into practice.

Even though I have a SubscribeStar profile set up (which you can check up here), I would make games anyway even if I didn't have it, it's just my way of self-expression and something to give back the community.

To be quite honest I would love to earn enough money so I could be able to never work a day in my life again, and dedicate my life to making hentai games, forever. Actually, better yet, I wish I was rich, never had to work a day in my life again and also able to upload my mind into the network so I could code hentai games forever without needing to worry about annoying stuff such as "eating" and "breathing".
 

Future?

During all of this time I still managed to write some stuff.

The priority right now is to work more closely in my game "Knight and Wife". The game will continue being basically the same, a parser text-adventure in the style of old goblinboy games but I have been experimenting with a lot of new stuff to enhance the experience and make it better for new players of interactive fiction.

I would post a roadmap of my ideas and plans for the future but honestly? I won't. The reason being that if I suddenly get worse or a plan doesn't come true some people are probably going to be very disappointed.

Overall, that's it! I'm doing better and don't worry, soon enough I will post about the new and improved "Knight and Wife build". If you want to support me in any way, just go to my SubscribeStar, I would appreciate it!

Thank you for your time!

New NTRS Thread

For true fans of the NTRS genre there is a little well-known thread which is the "Complete Netorase & Sharing Games Master List", a masterlist on F95Zone that aimed to compile a list of NTRS themed games since this genre seems to be somewhat in the background in a lot of game and porn websites. In any case, turns out the list was actually a lot bigger than anticipated and it keeps getting bigger still since some developers are catching on to this fetish.

 Unfortunately, for reasons I do not know the original thread keeper didn't update the thread anymore,  leaving the NTRS fans with a beautiful discussion thread but an outdated list. I thought about this for some time but I finally decided to do something about it, I decided to pick up the mantle and create my own update NTRS list, now, not only with NTRS games but with actually more content.

So me, the programmer and organization freak had to do something. I ended up making a very simple script which saves the games and their info in a json file. Why a json file though? Because it's easier to parse and I can easily add, remove, edit, update, and extract all the info I want with minimal effort on my part. This translates to the swiftness I can actually update the new NTRS masterlist. Oh, and I can also modify the script later to add new features, automating the entire process even more.

Pigman Conquest v1.0.0

Hello there! Here I am today to finally inform that Pigman Conquest is now on it's 1.0.0 version! It has been a pleasure to work on this project since I never did a roguelike(technically a brough-like) and actually finished it, much less an ero roguelike. I added some instructions on the game folder for people who never played a roguelike before and the updates changelog. From now on though the terminal version is only getting bugfixes as I notice them, the real updates are going to instead go to the Pigman Conquest Graphical.

The changelog for this version is basically this:

- Fixed endings
- Fixed attack unavailable after knocking an enemy out
- Refactored the code and removed dead code
- Added intro story
- Fixed impossible to complete maps
- Modified Changelog and How to Play files

Play the game here: https://hentai-kishi.itch.io/pigman-conquest

That should be about everything, now that Pigman Conquest is finished I will dedicate more effort to other projects. More content will come soon so stay sharp!

Past Month Update

 Hello there! Here I come with my monthly report and some justifications.

This past month I actually didn't do much since work and life kept me busy for quite a while but I managed to do some updates on Pigman Conquest which will be available once I fix one final thing. After this final fix, the graphical version will also be available.

The graphical version will receive more updates as time passes adding more content to it such as traps, different enemies and more. Keep an eye out for it.

Now, I have put Knight and Wife on "limbo" for some time but I will be returning to it shortly, fixing some bugs and finally introducing the chapter 2 and 3.

In fact on this time I wasn't doing any updates I was looking into another project, an adult game for the blind or the visually impaired that people who aren't can also enjoy. I won't promise anything but a demo might be dropping soon enough just to give players a little taste of the project. It will be a proof of concept for me if anything, something fun to make.

Other than that I don't have much to say, despite thinking I should make more frequent updates I still have to see which days I should schedule for update reports. I will have to organize myself better and come back to you guys later.

Pigman Conquest 0.9.4

 Hello there! Today I come with yet another update for Pigman Conquest! The erotic roguelike game.

The changelog is basically:

0.9.4
- Cleaned up some files and reduced the size of the executable
- Enemies now cannot be on top of one another
- Broken Frame is now fixed
- Having sex with enemies now consistently recovers 1 heart
- More enemy variety
- Files now include a changelog and a small how to play guide

Other than that I still need to fix a couple more bugs and add more features to finally release the 1.0 version, with a particular issue in the forefront of my mind such as the fact that the game sometimes generates impossible to complete maps requiring that the user restarts the game. It still hasn't been fixed unfortunately.

Bumping the version to 0.9.4 now it's time I return to working on Knight and Wife to provide the Chapter 2 and 3. New things are coming so stay sharp!

Oh and by the way, for those who don't know, my game is on itch.io since it's easier to keep up than to have a lot of download links to the same file.

Knight & Wife Chapter 1

 
Hello there! Today I come to you guys with a new game, one I have mentioned before. Knight & Wife! This is but the first chapter in a text adventure game of great significance to me as it is the first longer game with a more complete storyline that I make.

The game is deeply inspired by goblinboy games and interpreter based text adventures, my love for narrative is what made me choose this particular and peculiar way of telling this story.

"Step on the shoes of a husband living with his wife in a typical fantasy world. Life is quiet, simple and most of all without surprises, that is until a Wyvern makes a nest near the village the husband lives in, from there a knight is dispatched to eliminate the Wyvern while living on the village temporarily, how will this new visitor change the husband and wife peaceful lives?"

The changelog for this first update is basically this:

- Chapter 1
* Chapter 1 Complete
* Movement Commands Complete
* Action Commands Complete
* System commands Incomplete
* Sex/Sex Related Commands Incomplete

System commands being incomplete means that currently there is no way of saving or loading games, this wasn't a worry of mine since this update is very small in size, from the chapter two release onwards it will be possible to do these actions. Same with sex/sex related commands, since there isn't any complex sex scenes in the first chapter I focused more on writing and designing the world than on implementing these. Don't worry, it will all be implemented as soon as next update.

Where I have been and new updates!

 
Wow, time sure does fly huh! It has been some time since I posted something, in truth I wanted to but I was horribly sick these pasts few days and the week before that I was swamped with work. I'm not the type to post everyday but I promise to try to post more frequently. Anyway, enough about my life. Let's see what's new.

~Knight & Wife~

Knight & Wife first chapter is already complete since it's so small, in fact I have been looking into adding a little more to it to give the player a good feel of the couple's relationship and worldbuild a bit more so please be patient with this release, this project in particular is important to me, anyway, the first chapter will be live soon(TM) hopefully and as soon as it's up a couple of other projects will take the forefront of my mind for a couple of days, don't worry though, they are all mostly finished and the next release of Knight & Wife and Pigman Conquest won't take that long.

~Pigman Conquest~

As Pigman Conquest approaches it's very last releases I would like to do something extra for subscribers and people who are willing to pay for the game. So I decided to plan a Pigman Conquest Graphical Update! A simple but significant improvement over ascii graphics to those who would like a little more stimulus to the imagination. Oh and of course, Pigman Conquest ascii version will remain free always. You can see what it looks like in the image above, of course the sprites could change on the final release but this is more or less the idea.

~More Projects~

In the time I wasn't posting I wrote and coded two other short games. One is a rythm game and the other an older goofy project I made in a couple of days, they are going to be posted as they are completely done since they still lack the art, so stay sharp for new updates!
