Minor Improvements

2013-05-23T03:45:00.002-07:00

We've got some more new stuff to tell you about.

Sugar Glider: A bunch of new content has been added for these sweet girls. There's a new M/F 69 scene both victory and loss. As well, there's two events showing them interacting with the Sugar Ferrets. There's also special variant scenes for a Sugar Ferret player defeated by a Sugar Glider, and for a Sugar Glider player going to the Sugar Ferrets' CandyShop.
François: The adorable French mutt has received a few more additions by GentlemanB:
- A new, expanded version of the loss scene if you fail to defeat the German Shepherds attacking the bakery when you first arrive there. It was written by a fan.
- Two new baking items, both resulting in unique and interesting infections for you to gain.
Poison: The Naga, Snake and Manticore now all have the potential for poisonous attacks.
Near-human: Thanks to Wahn, the range of possible forms that make the player appear near-human has been expanded. This increases your options for gaining access to the warehouse beside the Junkyard.
Alexandra: A fix has been applied to her saving/restoration. If you've got savewords with her in it, I'd recommend you load with Trixie and get an updated saveword, just in case.
Joanna: The kinkajou-plant hybrid has been added to the saveword system, allowing you to continue to enjoy lots of kinky fun with her. If you've not met her before, she can be saved by finding the Overrun Garden event in the High Rise District. Be warned though, it's a lvl 9 fight to save her.

Good Community

2013-05-18T20:36:00.002-07:00

You're all good folks, and it shines through most brightly when things get dark.

Since I posted up my last journal, the response has been amazing and touching, so I thought I'd toss out a general thanks to y'all. Flexible is now at 1000 for the month, meaning 10 bonus hours come the next month!

Thank you

2013-05-18T05:21:00.000-07:00

You may have noticed, but our bonus hours have jumped up a bit as generous souls have stepped forward in time of need to nudge things forward. Thanks guys!

Over on the links page, there are now links to the raw files for all three games.

Still taking any amount towards the mother situation, each bit counts. Normal commissions are working as always, so if you want your money going towards a particular addition to the game, we want to hear about it!

Tax Woes

2013-05-16T17:53:00.002-07:00

First, I apologize for this post. You're probably not here for sob stories, but here we go.

My mother's been ill for the last six months, but is recovering(yay). She goes out to buy a few things, and finds her card being denied. Lo and behold, California snatched about 1,000$ out of her accounts, leaving her critically low on funds.

I'm doing a bit of a fund raising to help make up the difference. If you can chip in any amount, I'd appreciate it. Employ the donate button on the right, or paypal over to dms.silver@gmail.com

All donations for this will count for bonus hour building at the end of the month.

Thank you all in advance,
Nuku

Do you even remember that project?

On a sudden urge, I picked up that dusty code and started hacking away at it. I've added a primitive war mechanic. If the 'open space' runs out in the world, any enemy tribes will start coming to you to try and get some instead. You can get game over if they kill all your people or steal all your land, which they will do without feeling guilty.

The wasteland just got harsher.

Update Time

2013-05-14T19:19:00.002-07:00

We've got some new updates and content available for you to enjoy. Also, the queue for Writer to Hire is almost clear, so it's a good opportunity to make your requests.

NPC related updates:
- Larissa: Because of the questionable voting, I decided to pick the top 5 from the list and make those, along with another one that wasn't on the list which I'd wanted to add. Her new potential forms are: Red Kangaroo, Panther Taur, Bald Eagle, Dark Elf, Succubus and Goo Girl.
- François: An option for M/M sex with the player as the bottom has been added to the options for the mongrel baker.
- Icarus: The subby prey bird's content has been continued with the option to not hold back during the sex scene up in the attic. While I don't want to spoil it, be advised that this content is much, MUCH darker and there is an extreme violence warning on it. Icarus has also been added to the save code.
- Campus Gym: A new location you can find with the Working Out event at the College Campus. There's a new NPC here, options for physical training and plans for more stuff to come. By UrsaOmega. EDIT: Activation coming soon.

Critter related updates:
- Spartan: There's a new event, History Lecture, available on the College Campus that stars these virile males. By Wahn.
- Cum Girl: A new, gooey critter made of you-know-what and eager for more of it. You can find her in the Sealed area under Trevor Labs. By GentlemanB.
- Donkeyman: A new M/M anal scene for player loss against the kinky, bondage burro.
- Naga: A new oral sex scene for player loss has been added to the random possible scenes.

Leonard/Artemis (7/15)
Icarus (6/6)
M/M Update (Stripes/Wahn) (4/4)

It's another way to support the game. If you plan on shopping Amazon anyway, do it through our widget and help support the game! I'll toss half the proceeds back at our awesome writers to make more content for the game.

FS Stories

2013-05-12T15:45:00.000-07:00

The new FS Novella, Food Court, is in proofing stage, but to tide you all over, I present the short story, Feline Fine.

Available feely on FA and Sofurry, or you can support the game by grabbing it over here for $1.29 in the ereader format of your choice. Every twenty sold is a bonus hour to the game.

Content!

2013-05-09T14:50:00.005-07:00

Lots more stuff has been produced over the last while, so it's time to let you all know what's been added to the game for you to find. As usual, there's been an assortment of fixes, touch-ups and typo corrections.

- Leonard: More content for matronly players has been added, this time in the form of several special scenes which may randomly occur when you go visit the gentlemanly lion. The first of these should also let you finally have some fun with the maids.
- Underground Labs: More events (by Wahn) and a new critter, the Shadow Beast (by UrsaMajor), have been added to this expanded area.
- Friendship Pony: The friendly ponies have received some adjustments, which will make them a little less memory intensive while keeping just as much variety.
- François: GentlemanB's added another batch of food items this culinary mutt can create for you. This time he has a trio of tasty delights which are all usable in combat for an added edge.
- Camp Bravo: Wahn's added another soldier here you can have some fun with.

Bonus Hour - Larissa

2013-05-01T15:45:00.002-07:00

Since this month's troubles has resulted in only a sole bonus hour, I'll be using it to add some new forms to Larissa, the multi-infection NPC. I've prepared a short list of possible infections that cover a range of forms. The top two selected by fans will be among those to appear among the new batch. I'll pick some other critters to go in the batch after the selections are made to keep things balanced and diverse.

Choices:
Bald Eagle (M)
Dark Elf (H)
Impala (F)
Latex Fox (M)
Panthertaur (H)
Red Kangaroo (F)
Satyr (M)
Shemale Collie (H)
Succubus (F)

More Stuff

2013-04-30T18:48:00.001-07:00

We've got another batch of stuff ready for you guys aside from the content that came out around the same time as Dragonpalooza, to which a few more bits have been added.

Bouncy Castle: The alternate escape path through the western parapets has been completed, giving you two choices to take once you've successfully found the vixen.

Underground Labs:
I've completed my work on the bonus hours project for renovating the area under Trevor labs by adding some additions and needed adjustments. I know Wahn and others have got some more ideas and plans in the works for this area, so expect other additions here over time.
- Corrupted Spawner: A partially-infected female reduced to a creature of lust and breeding for the monstrosities locked in the underground lab. While it's only got a pair of scenes and no endings, there's room to do a lot more with this one.
- Flesh Blob: A shifting creature of flesh. This thing is a much more deeply transformed creature than most. I don't expect it to be to everyone's tastes, but it was one of those ideas I needed to see through to the end.
- Alternate Entrance: I've also (hopefully) added a means for players to still get into the sealed area if the main section of Trevor Labs is otherwise closed.
- Tentacle Horror: This creature has been (temporarily) promoted to level 8, though that will likely climb more once the area is better populated.

From GentlemanB:
- Sugar Glider: A sweet new female critter added to the State Fair area.
- Fire Sprite: This critter's been given a new drop item, the glowing ember.

Dragonpalooza!

2013-04-27T07:45:00.005-07:00

Stripes and Blue Bishop wave to you in greetings as you approach the door to leave the library. "Welcome to Dragonpalooza, everyone! Here's your flyer and a complimentary bottle of lube," the tiger says with a happy smile. He's got a hat with a plush wyvern on it.
"You'll be needing that," the blue dragon adds, adjusting his commemorative Dragonpalooza t-shirt (depicting a rather anatomically-suspect sexual scene between a person and a Yamato Dragon).
"Yes indeedy-doo. The dragons out there have gotten really active and are up to a whole lot more kinky fun. This guy's done gone crazy again and has added a lot more to all the dragons roaming around out there," Stripes adds, patting his friend on the back.
"Well, I'd already done the feral sea dragons, so they've only gotten some added polish and a touch-up to react if you've got multiple genitals. It's the Yamato dragons and the wyverns that have gotten a complete overhaul, both males and females."
"That's right, you lucky dog - voracious male wyverns can now be encountered," the tiger tells you, the wyvern on his hat flopping around excitedly. You notice that the wyvern on the hat is indeed both male and excited.
"And, if you get tough enough, at level 20, you'll stop just running from the wyverns and start fighting them. You crazy, overconfident madman," Blue Bishop says while giving your shoulder a firm punch.
"We've also got some new feats associated with this release which will allow you to access even more, stranger and kinkier scenes. The FSDs, the Yamatos and the wyverns all have new 'Touched by Madness' scenes you can get if you have that feat..."
"Which you can select as a fun feat after the 'Strange Serpent' event is resolved (regardless of outcome)..."
The tiger interrupts again, adding "That event's found in the sewers. Or your can get it right away if you're playing in Forgotten/Hard mode."
"I was just going to say that," the dragon growls, swatting at the other fellow. "The other one you get by being stuffed too often by the male Yamatos. That's called 'Twi..'"
The feline swats back. "You're forgetting that the rules for oversized balls have also been adjusted, taking player size and internal balls into account."
"I didn't forget. You didn't give me a chance to get to that," the dragon says.
As the two continue arguing and things descend into a slap fight, you slip out the door. You're unsure if you're quite ready to face what's out there, but that hasn't stopped you before. You flip through the pamphlet you were given and, after reading some of it, double-check to make sure you've still got that lube.

Content and Delays

2013-04-24T03:59:00.002-07:00

Despite the lack of announcements about it, there's been a lot of new content coming in under the radar. With all my computer troubles, I kept putting off an announcement while trying to get one last addition made, but forgot there was already a lot already there. Here's a quick list of all the new stuff that's come out.

Critters:
Feline Gymnast: SomeFur has come along and created this kitty for the Campus area.
Friendship Pony: With April Fool's past, these parody ponies have been confined to the State Fair.
Drop Items: The City Sprites and Mental Mice now have drop items.

NPCs:
Karen: More expansion upon her quest once freed from Rex.
Jennifer: New conversation and sex scene adjustments once the player's the team manager.
Helen/Xerxes: Sex scene adjustments for their awesome version, including a new 69 option.
François: New cooking mechanic where he'll convert ingredients into new, interesting and even potentially useful culinary delights. The first set of these recipes is active and there's more to come.
Kara: A sex scene with the submissive hyena for Hyena players.
Felix: Accessible via Thomas the Centaur, this new NPC has a lot of conversation and sex options.

Other:
Wild Womb: A new perk to have your children go feral rather than accompany you.
Anime Club: A new event for the Campus which includes a tentacular, one-time critter.
Zephyr: Discounted prices at the Zephyr store on all items.
Description Tweak: Your description will now be adjusted if you have internal/external balls.
Trevor Labs: The first few events for expanding the area under Trevor Labs have been added. More to come.

I've still not been able to fully resolve my issues in the wake of my computer's death, but I will be using my laptop as a backup for actual compiling attempts. This will require some added finagling, but I've got a few updates all partially done, so I hope to start getting caught up soon.

Another Tiger Update

2013-04-15T03:06:00.000-07:00

Here's another update on my status. The new computer is complete and the wrestling with Windows 7 has been going slow. There's been a few hurdles getting Inform 7 to run and compile the program, so I'll need to try tackling that again tomorrow before I can resume actual work. My plan is to try dealing with that again this evening and, if successful, I can get back to writing. For those with requests, I apologize for the unforeseen delays this has caused.

EDIT: Update 7am 4/16 - Finally gotten the current version of the game to compile. I can now try incorporating my recent work back into it and starting new work. Updates from me should resume over the next few days.

EDIT 2: Update 10:30pm 4/16 - Spoke too soon. Something strange is still going on and I'm not sure how to correct it at this point. I'll have to try using my old laptop for FS work for the moment.

Tiger Status Update

2013-04-12T17:30:00.000-07:00

Recent RL has been keeping me from working on FS as directly as I have been, but I am hoping this will settle down soon. I was set to work on FS all day today, but a power outage early this morning killed my computer stone dead. I am partway through construction of my new PC (i.e. getting my friend to make it). This unfortunately means some more delays as I get my system reconstituted and files transferred from drives. I'll try to post an update of the new additions soon.
