DevLog June 2023

Hello everyone!

Here's the latest on our project's development and what you can expect in the coming months.

Progress and Timeline

Progress is steadily moving forward. We're still on track and looking at a mid to end of summer release for the demo. It's been a journey, and we can't wait to share what we've been working on with you all.

Steam Page

We plan to set up our Steam page this month. This will allow for a centralized hub for feedback and interactions with the community. Your thoughts and ideas will be invaluable in refining the game.

We will continue to maintain the itch.io page as well although we do not plan on providing the game through that platform.

Patreon Support

We're thrilled to share that our first asset pack will be released to Patreon supporters at the $5 tier and above. We deeply appreciate your continued support!

Content and Advertisement

We've taken the decision to exclude NSFW content from the demo, enabling us to advertise and promote the game in a wider array of platforms. That being said, shortly after the demo launches, we'll release a NSFW mode for our Patreon subscribers. 

Game Mechanics:

Main Bedroom Area 

This will be a “Virtual Pet” style play area where you can:

- Select mini games

- Rest/recover from work

- Watch Symbell…do things.

Note: The “do things” animations will not be included in the demo. 

Currency Management

While we plan to implement a currency management feature, this will not be included in the demo. 

Shopping

This feature will be partially included in the demo (keep reading).

Mini Games

The "Strip Tease" game isn't your traditional rhythm game. Here, you'll dance and tease the audience while managing energy levels and crowd excitement. You will equip dance moves that have stats where some moves have more excitement but higher energy requirements. There will be 3 dance moves total but only 2 can be equipped in the mini game. We will also include 2 songs to play through.

We have other mini games planned, but the details are under wraps for now.

Survivability

We've decided to remove the currency and survival aspect from the demo. Instead, we'll include a scoring system in the mini game that will unlock some game assets included in the demo.

Shopping and Outfits

Although the shopping feature will be excluded from the demo, unlocking outfits will still be possible by completing mini game challenges. The demo will offer 5 outfits, only visible on Symbell in the mini game.

That's all for now. Thank you for your support, and we look forward to sharing more updates soon!
