The Future Of This Project

Okay, so here it is, the official poll I've been muttering about for a while.

To explain this a little bit more in-depth, I am going to be graduating from university in a matter of weeks. I have a choice on the table in front of me. Do I dive into the games industry and try to find a job? This will be time consuming and ultimately take me away from this project for some time. Or do I try to make...

Godspeak's Extra Spanking Tutorials #3

Dungeon Design

Hello again! I got back from San Francisco late last night after a really enlightening GDC experience. Granted, a lot of the advice doesn't really applying to me since I'm making erotic games, but still, good to have for if/when I decide to make something more for a general audience. Anyway, on to the tutorial!

So last time, we set up a quest for gaining acc...

Some Changes In Gulmouth...

Remember that weird mansion in Gulmouth with the rich family in it that don't really do anything? Thanks to a particular Patron, I got to update that this week into a much more interesting scenario. I actually ended up getting a bit carried away with the scene since I enjoyed making it so much, and as a result, there are 5 possible ways for it to play out!

Her name is Alvina Latrimona, and she i...

Godspeak's Extra Spanking Tutorials #2

Anatomy Of A Quest

Hello everyone! I'm back with another advanced tutorial for you! This time we're going to be going over a more traditional type of game design, quest design. Quests are integral to player enjoyment in most games, even ones that are about spanking! In this case, the reward for doing the quest is access to a dungeon in which more fun can be found. This is a fair...

Isolde: Punishment Done!

Alrighty, so I've finally gotten all of Isolde's punishing abilities finished. Next up is just going to be finishing all the rest of the girls' funishment abilities, and then making it so they can receive as well as give. 

Another thing I wanna note is that I'm taking the week of spring break off to work more on this project, but the following week I'll be going to GDC, so progress is going...

Godspeak's Extra Spanking Tutorials #1

Finite State Machines

Hello! For our first tutorial of the advanced series, we will be going over a concept called finite state machines. It sounds complicated, but don't worry, it's less complicated than you think! A finite state machine in games can be simply described as a table of behaviors that can happen according to certain parameters. In AI, this is used extensively. An ...

No Tutorial This Week! Sorry!

Hey all, so last week, I told you all that I was going to have the first of the second round of tutorials out today, and believe me I TRIED. Midterms are this week and next week, and there just wasn't enough time for me to complete the tutorial I started and do all of the studying I needed to do to pass!

I'm super duper sorry guys, but I'll devote any free time I have this following week to the ...

Lemme Upgrade Ya!

Remember that song? You do now!

Anyway, this week I did some more with the side project, namely, gave it a graphical update, programmed some AI for the nanny enemies, added in health items, added in secret walls, and added in floor traps!

So far, the game is becoming less and less like Chip's Challenge with spanking and is turning more into a spanking-roguelite, which I'm cool with making ...

What's This? A New Side Project?

Hey guys!

So if you came out to my stream earlier today, you got a little peek of this thing! It's a side project I'm developing for you guys, basically Chip's Challenge, but with spanking! No release scheduled for it at this time, but it's probably gonna be a while longer.

On DOAS I did some more work with Gulmouth and Blackwarren, mostly adding little things to do here and there so they ...

Streaming Now!

Streaming In 5!

Hey everyone, I'll be doing a gamedev stream here in 5 minutes of my work on a side project for you guys! See you there!

Doin' Werk!

Hey all!

So for this week, I've been working on several things for you guys! First off, we have another patron reward here that got some love this week. She's the kinda mean, burly lady you might come across at a dockside bar. Not interested in conversation or small-talk, and if you push her, well...

Secondly was bugfixing. I'm trying to get all of the ones that I've found or been reported...

Another One Done!

Hey guys!

Osha can now dish out punishments, and funishments! Next up is Isolde, and after that, all of the girls will be able to punish you for shirking off at work. After that, I'll be finishing the funishments, then making it so they can receive as well as give.

Another thing! The $400 milestone has been reached, so that means that I will be making some more tutorials! This time, we'll ...

Working On Eden

Hey all!

Sorry for the late update, I was in another state all weekend for a wedding in the family! Anyway, I've started work on the individual, randomized punishments from the other girls, starting with Eden, and I'm proud to say that hers is in! Now, if you slack off at work by not completing your assigned chores, there is a chance that Eden may exact revenge on you.

Fleshing out these i...

Star-Crossed Buns

Hey everyone! I'm here today with my first ever side project!

It's an interactive fiction game where you play as a freight captain trying to catch a little R&R on a spaceport. Deciding they don't feel like wading through huge crowds of people to get a drink in the station's main pub, they take a gamble on a tiny dive bar at the very bottom of the station. It turns out that the proprie...

Quick Notice

Hey everyone,

I'm heading out in a minute here for the start of my vacation, so I may not be able to respond to bugs for the next couple of days. Rest assured though, I'm bringing all of my stuff and folders for the game, so I should be able to fix bugs once I'm all settled in at my destination. 

I hope you all are enjoying the game and I hope you have a great New Year!

Diary Of A Slave v0.5

It has come. Finally.

Build v0.5.2: http://www.mediafire.com/file/1shcsu0v7dydlp2/DiaryOfASlave-v0.5.2.zip

I did a few run-throughs of the game as of now and didn't find any game-breakers, so hopefully everything's good! As usual, save very often and use a lot of slots, because so...

Prepare Yourselves...

It is almost time.

Yeeehaww!

Okay, whew. I've got a lotta stuff to show off today, so let's just go ahead and get started!

First of all, as you can see, daily work is done. Days are timed at 3 minutes at the moment and at the end, Jen looks over what you've done. If you haven't done anything, well I'm sure you can guess what happens. And if the other girls slack off, well...

I Come With Gifts!

Hey everyone,

Been working on DOAS some this week, but pretty much all of the work I did was dialogue and I don't wanna spoil it for you! So I came up with a solution.

The file linked above is a zip file containing 2 partially finished text-parser  games that I have been creating in my spare time, and since they contain spanking, I figured you all would be interested!

Please kee...

Computer Fixed!

Hey all,

Just letting you guys know that after 6.5 hours of weird software issues and driver problems, I have a working computer now! I'll be working on DOAS this week and releasing a regular progress report come next Sunday!

Other good news is that I just submitted my last assignment for this semester, so I'm officially out of school. I will also be taking the 3 weeks after next off of wo...

Some Bad News :(

Hey, guys. I really hate to bring this to you, but it literally just happened this weekend. The motherboard in the computer I am making Diary of a Slave on is fried. Since all of my hardware in this computer is a few years old, I couldn't get one at my local Fry's that had the proper connections for my RAM and processor. This left me with only the option to order it from the internet, which I have...

Crafting System In!

Whew, I finally got this working! It's the crafting system I'll be using for all of the daily work in the game. The way that the character learns new recipes is a little bit weird, but I think I can work something out that makes sense. 

Other stuff I worked on this week was getting the rest of the interaction when the character is little with Esperanza done. You can now get up to all sorts ...

More Patron Rewards!

Hey all, here's some of the content I worked on this week. Well, the content that's interesting to show off that is. My other project has been the rather uninteresting crafting system for the various high level work skills. It's in, but it's really way too much code and way too unmodular. It should do for now though! Now that it's out of the way, I can concentrate on one of the biggest barriers I ...

No Update Today!

Hey guys! I'm not going to be posting an update tonight due to a severe lack of free time this weekend. Don't worry though, I'll get something out for you tomorrow!

Patron Rewards and Brewing

Hi everybody! 

I finally got around to building out some more of the patron rewards this week, with Unsung's being shown above. It's a card game that I will be using at different points around Diary of a Slave, here it's acting as a wager game. Basically, there's three cards on the table, you pick one, then your opponent picks one. It's rock-paper scissors rules after that on who wins the r...

Woodshaping In!

Hey all, just showing off the shiny new woodshaping system I put in! This it the second level of the logging skill and is what allows you to make the materials necessary for carpentry. As a new woodshaper, you have a greater chance of ruining a plank than a skilled one would, but you should get by okay most of the time! 

Basically the way a day will work is that you'll get an order that you...

Hey Look, Farming!

Okay, so for this week, I worked on getting the farming system to a state that I feel can be built more on. What you're seeing is me demonstrating the first tier of the farming skill, which is weeding. Weeding is available from skill level 0 and is the first thing you will likely end up doing. 

After that, at skill level 15, you get access to planting, which uses the little plots in the mid...

Godspeak's Spanking Game Tutorial #5

Your First Spanking

Hey everyone! So last time we got our Ada character in and programmed out to perform an inspection of the apartment, then to grab the player and get ready to initiate a spanking. Today, we're gonna create that spanking!

Let's open up our Exit event (the one on top of the door) now and scroll all the way down to the last bit of code we wrote, which is Ad...

Woodcutting!

Hey all. For this week, I'm showing off the woodcutting portion of daily work. As before, this one will be governed by a skill. This is the reason why all of the trees are giving me rough-hewn wood right now, I'm not skilled enough to harvest wood that hasn't been horribly splintered and ruined by my axe blows.

The three levels of this job go from the tree-chopping pictured, to fashioning the wo...
