Campaign Going to Monthly - General Update
🕑 Added 2017-07-29 20:50:26 +0000 UTC Hey everyone,I'm going to be turning the campaign to monthly. The recent poll shows that most people are up for it (I think the people who voted for regular text files wanted monthly, and either way, a lot of people voted for monthly regardless), and it is something I had been publicly thinking of doing for a while.
This does mean that a pledge will be auto generated on August 1st. Please adjust your pledges accordingly, whether you'd like to pledge, delete, increase, decrease, etc. If you processed $10+ for the description update, you're automatically in the upcoming Beta. But if you're a new pledger, then you need to be in the $10+ tier if you desire Beta access.
There doesn't seem to be that much interest in the Text Releases; but I'm planning on doing a release anyways. That will give people a better idea of what the Text Releases have, and if they like them, then I'll keep doing them. If not, then I'll stop. Either way, nobody loses out on anything since it's just more content for the $10+ pledgers.
Progress is humming along for the description update. Implementing most of the feats of strength I mentioned in the "What do you want to ask her" poll. So while there won't be a "Ask her to clap her hands" thing, there will be a high level FoS where she creates a gust of wind by clapping her hand, that sort of thing.
Currently you will be able to ask her:
- Crush an object with her hands
- Crush an object with her biceps
- Crush and object with her thighs (she will generally crush different items in each category; though she'll sometimes repeat things, like crushing a rock with her hands/biceps, since that's a pretty different description)
- Outflex an article of clothing
- Breath in and exhale as hard as she can
Asking her to stomp might come in a later update.
New overall descriptions up to level 50, new Talk to her About X, new
I'll be including the fanart, I believe there are 9 pieces now. Ritualist was commissioned by a very generous fan to create 10 pieces of art detailing various feats of strength. Thus far only a few have been completed, so they won't be included in this update, unfortunately.
Transfer potion will be reimplemented.
Depending on how many words I've written when all of this is finished, I might find time to implement the beauty stat, or implement the first competition. Nothing set in stone though. Either way, you can expect Beauty to be the next implemented mechanic, and competitions to come either alongside it or shortly after. I'd also really like to add in a new career path or two, maybe Personal Training and "Flexcam Performer" (a non-nude muscle flexing webcam thing)
I'm also working on a pretty beefy newsletter for all of the $5+ pledgers. Lots of musings about things I might do in the future, ways I'd like to revamp systems, etc.
As for a few other polls that happened recently:
- No current plans to change the speed of which the girlfriend improves. While there is some strong support for slowing the early stages of the game down, it's only roughly ~50%. And that would be a very large undertaking; so I'd rather spend that time on something almost everyone will enjoy.
- No current plans to separate strength/muscle. While it could be a cool system - one I'd likely include if I were starting the game over - incorporating it at this time would require a lot of time, and it wasn't an overwhelmingly popular idea.
I might have a muscle size cap in the future though. Possibly a height one too. I'll hold a poll or two about it. The way it'll work is: say the cap is 40, your girlfriend's arms would stop being described as any larger than 40 inches in circumference normally; but you'd be able to ask her to "flex to the max" or something along those lines, where she'd grow on the spot for that performance.
The main advantage of this is it would help keep things feasibly realistic (if she's 10 feet tall with 80 inch arms, I'm unsure how she could fit inside the apartment...), and would also help with time since I wouldn't have to write descriptions for the ultra sizes in various events.
That's it for now. Thanks for your support everyone, and I hope you enjoy all of the content to come!

really good and interesting.

There are ways to get around the 10ft tall with 80 inch arms issue though without restricting her size. Although I do agree that would probably require an expansion pack dedicated to that type of hypermuscular size and the challenges that come with that (upgrading the apartment and such). I mean she can be a construction worker, she could simply construct a larger house. I do hope you consider sprinkling in some macro play in a future update. Although the stuff in this update from the expanded descriptions to the beauty stuff is really exciting though. I can't wait to see the monthly updates. :)
