Poll Results, Progress Report, and Preview Images
Hi Heroes!Apologies that I have been out of touch for the last week couple of weeks. Work has been chaotic with lots of projects and tight deadlines (I work in the healthcare sector, and the beginning of winter is always the busiest time for us!).First, I'd like to introduce the final designs for the new characters in Paris' clique. Isobel and Katrina. As voted for in the most recent polls. These high-society ladies are used to the very best in life. From parties, to fast cars, to billionaires falling at their feet. However the recent G...

Hello Heroes!This is the poll for the second of our two new minor characters. The Devious Duchess! One of Paris' high society friends.

Progress Report and new polls
Hello HeroesI'm sorry I've been out of touch for a few days. Work has been crazy busy! The problem with being a Project Manager is that occasionally people expect you to manage a project. It's very inconsiderate of them, and has been taking up a lot of my time the last few days! :). However, I've managed to squash most of the bugs in the CJ fight (though a couple still elude me!), and I'm well on with the CJ scenes surrounding the battle.The new mechanics have also been received well by the Tier 3 testers, so once this updat...
CJ Final Preview
Hi all! I hope you had nice weekends. I just wanted to put up a post saying that I'm aware that the CJ update has taken a little longer than expected to go out to The Dojo for testing. I'm still aiming to get it released in the next couple of days, I'm just ironing out some of the systems. The reason for this is the complexity of the battle. As I've mentioned before I'm hoping to introduce some key improvements to the overall battle system. So the work done here will eventually be rolled out to improve all battles. This is a...
v0.181 Fast Travel + Bugfixes
Hello HeroesWhile I'm finishing up the CJ fight + new mechanics. I just wanted to quickly release a patch that has a couple of bugfixes, and a much requested mechanic FAST TRAVEL. You should notice a new object in your room. This will allow you to travel to the city and back instantaneously. Saving on much running back and forth! Let me know if there are any bugs with the new system, and I'll try to work them out ASAP. This patch also comes with a couple of bugfixes:Lilith Fight: Beating Lilith and asking her to take her gifts back shou...

Stand Up QTE Test & Poll. Download and try, then let me know your thoughts!
Link for QTE testttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1NopsT2AjfCYkQ-uh1Pq4NyUCcThrofPl/view?usp=sharingttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1NopsT2AjfCYkQ-uh1Pq4NyUCcThrofPl/view?usp=sharingHi Heroes. I'm currently redesigning the stand up mechanism. At the moment it's a straight 20 TP cost to stand up. Which can be frustrating when trying to build up TP. So I'm changing it to give options!Going forward I'm looking at giving players a choice of spending 20 TP OR doing a QTE to stand up. When attempting the QTE, the following will be true:...
Tier 2+ Poll: CJ Ballbust Options
Hi Heroes!I've completed several moves for the CJ fight now, and thought I would do a quick poll with some options for the ballbusts she might use on our Hero! It's been a while since I watched wrestling, and I've tried to put some descriptions for those who don't know the moves (sorry if some are wrong!). Again, it's multiple choice, so select your fav 3 or 4. Thanks Heroes! I look forward to seeing which of these you would all like included! Have a great evening Heroes!
CJ Fight Preview, Revised Fight Mechanics, and (kind of) Summon attacks.
Hello Heroes!I hope all is great!I'm now on with creating all the images for the CJ fight, and wanted to give a run down of how the fight will work, and some key changes to the fight mechanics that will affect all the fights in the game. CJ FightSo the next stage of our story sees the hero needing to access the DeMontfords Penthouse above the bank, to confront the Leader of the Goths. Unfortunately the only other person who is known to have a key is Paris Demontford, who is currently waiting for a match up between the Hero and her Mountaino...
Your reviews help! :)
Hello Heroes!I hope you are all enjoying the Goth update (Free Users) and the Lilith update (Paid users)!Like many people north of 40, I'm not very good at internetting. I've never had to "build my personal brand", and the whole Youtube "Remember to like and subscribe!" always seemed a bit clingy to me.So I thought I would just ask you good people once in a post, then we can all move on with our lives :P.I'm trying to grow this community further, and reviews can really help with this. If you have any spare time, and...

Hello Heroes!The Lilith Fight is now available as part of the main game. As part of this update I am trialing a new system which will eventually be part of the "Submission Levels" update.

Lilith Progress Report
Hello Heroes!After a few days away visiting family, I've been back the last few days and working again on bringing the Lilith fight into the main game. I'm making good progress with this, and will have it ready for you all in the next few days.I really liked the livestream idea as a narrative device. Kind of like how the News show was used earlier in the game. So as part of this, I'm making a few short episodes of Liliths show (which can be accessed via the computer in your room). The idea will be that as the game goes on, more epis...

Lilith Fight (Beta) available in The Dojo v0.18 now!
Hello Heroes!The Lilith fight is now (sort of) available in the Dojo.The reason I say "sort of" is that it's not yet fully polished. I'm going away for a few days over this weekend and next week, so I wanted to get this out to you all before I go (It's now 2:20 in the UK, and my flight is tomorrow morning. So I've done as much as I can to get this ready :P).This fight has multiple animations and different versions of moves. Lillith is a camgirl and is live streaming your fight. The more viewers she gets, the more powerfu...
v0.171: Slight Update to Electra Fight
Hi all. Just to let you know, there's been a slight update to the fight with Electra.I had missed out a couple of moves on the "hard" route and left the old placeholders in (which were repeats of some of the other paths. I have now changed this for V0.171.This will feature a couple of new scenes along this path. This version also includes the previous hotfixes!I know some people have been having issues with freezing animations. So I have also uploaded a second version of the game called "COBD v0.171 NWJS". This uses an upda...
