Ruin Me 0.36.0: More Watersports
Hello, perverts! I hope you're doing good as we close out January. I'm very thankful for your assistance in being able to develop Ruin Me. I also appreciate you spreading the word about the game; I want more and more people to play it!A heads-up: I'm planning to change to charge-up-front for this Patreon after this month's pledges go out.

0.35 Reflection and 0.36 Preview
Hello, perverts! The 0.35 release added a bunch of miscellaneous customization features as well as a new play scene that introduced the first example of lasting effects. I've also run a couple of polls, one for the next minor ruination and one for general kink themes that folks like for Theresa. I've just posted a new poll on what play scenes should get added next.Some poll takeaways: Urolagnia was a clear favorite for a minor ruination, followed by consensual partner-sharing/cuckqueaning with the woman being the one "cheated" o...
Which Play Scenes Next? (January 2020)
Hello, special perverts! It's time for the periodic poll on what play scenes with Theresa you'd like to see me add. With the flurry of writing for the "birds" and the completion of her advanced ruination, I didn't end up adding many since the last poll, but I have enough new patrons that I want to recalibrate.Please vote for the play scene you're most interested in seeing next. If there's something that's not on the list and you think it should be, please share it in the comments, and click the hearts for any sug...

Ruin Me 0.35.0: Flogging and Outfits
Hi, perverts! 2021 is getting off to a weird start in the US. I've been keeping it together, although money is super tight for me. That means I super appreciate all of your support!This release contains almost all stuff guided by Center of Attention patrons! I'm finally catching up on some play scenes chosen last year, I added a new outfit based on a poll, and I got a request for some oral-after-anal stuff that's been added. The current poll is for general input on what kinks and concepts folks are interested in with regard to There...
Poll: Kinky Themes For Theresa
Hi, fancy perverts. I super appreciate your support right now; things are tough for me and every little bit helps. Remember that you're welcome to make special requests for stuff you want to see in the game, no matter how small. Comment, PM me, or write: phanes@phanes.meBased on the previous poll, it looks like the next minor ruination will be centered on pee play, which is exciting, as it's one of my favorite kinks. Partner sharing with the man being the active partner being shared also ranked high, and that's one I'm excited t...
0.33-0.34 Reflection and 0.35 Preview
Hi, perverts! I hope you're all doing well! It's been a month since the last preview, but I feel like I've gotten a bunch done.I finally released the CYOA image game, which was a celebration of reaching 50 patrons... and now I'm almost at 100! I think it's about time to post a new goal, so here it is: when I hit 150 patrons, I'll make and release a patron-only queer smutty text game in Twine where you play as Emily Amherst, the woman in "The Momentary Cabin". It'll have the grindy feel of an idle game or clic...

New Outfits Poll For January 2021
Hi, special perverts! I'm going to do my best to keep the poll frequency higher in the new year. The first thing I'd like to do is get some of your thoughts on new outfits for Theresa, which are acquired from the Tailor.As with existing extra outfits, these will just be visible in the standing pose; Theresa will default to nudity in other poses. I'll probably pick a few of the top options before running another outfit poll.If you have trouble picking, or you have a suggestion that's not on the list, comment or PM me. Photo refer...

Hi, perverts! It's been a long time coming, but I've finished the image-based CYOA that's a celebration of me reaching 50 patrons! It's been mostly done for a bit, just waiting for art and polish.

0.30 Reflection and 0.31 Preview
Hi, perverts! Thank you so much for your understanding after a slow month. It's been a super rough time in the US lately and October hit me especially hard. With a bunch of other things going on in my life and a struggle to make ends meet personal-budget-wise, I also had an unexpected amount of difficulty with this expedition.Before I get into that, I'll note that I've put up a poll asking about how much audio should be in the game. Options range from removing all sound from the opening to adding full ambience. If you want to weigh ...
How Much Sound?
Hello, special perverts! Thank you for sticking with me through a slow October. I've been thinking about general polish stuff for Ruin Me, and one thing I want feedback on is sound.Currently, the opening to the game has thunder and rain ambience at appropriate times, but there's nothing else for the rest of the game. I usually mute porn games, but on the other hand, audio can really help with making a game feel more vivid.I'm trying to decide if I should remove the opening sounds and avoid startling or annoying players and setting f...

Hello, all you perverts! I don't have much novel news except that my schedule is going to continue to be a bit unreliable.
