Phew this week has been insane at work but I'm treating this game jam like job #2 and working hard!
I fully finished the story and added 9 short endings. I also added the last minigame with the last 5 stuffing stages and added 3 more boob sizes. I need to add the CGs for the endings and they probably don't all call right so stuff will break.
I also fully voice acted the game with ...

The pace on this game has been explosive. The themes of my weekend were debug, improve, and enhance, and the result is a much better build with 4 minigames (out of 5) and the 5th undergoing debugging now. Alice is pretty large in this update, but she still goes bigger in the last minigame... And huge in some of the endings.
I will probably finish the two minigames by Tuesday and switch t...

I finished debugging minigame 3 and some bugs today, here's another quick update!!
I've been doing development differently than usual with this game, so existing saves will probably work if you want to just pick up where you left off by loading a save to see the new minigame.
I'm hoping to finish the other two minigames by Sunday night! WOOO! Then it's write endings, make ending C...

Work on the belly jam ( https://itch.io/jam/team-quimbly ) is going great! I have all the base character images done and am working on minigames this weekend. This is a quick preview of the 2nd minigame. I'll work on the 3rd tonight and probably the 4th tomorrow morning, so the story is going well.

2024-12-14 01:02:17 +0000 UTC View PostThis early early build has the core game loop and the first 5 stuffing images (there are 25 in the main story, 5 per upgrade) with the first minigame. You can't upgrade Alice yet or buy new locations yet, and the game will break if you try, so don't do that!
To add:

The game for the Belly Jam will take place in Roswell, NM. Alice (the character here) gets abducted and shenanigans happen. The focus of the game since it's a belly jam is stuffing and belly inflation, but it has BE and lactation too!
I need to do a lot of debugging but should have an early feature-incomplete preview out for you Patrons this weekend unless things go off the rails for so...
I did a quick query on Discord to check if I should pause on Housewife Sim and participate in this: https://itch.io/jam/team-quimbly or skip the jam and keep pushing Housewife Sim. Housewife Sim's been delayed a few times, so what's another three-week break to make a quick and fun game, right?

I've been posting some images as I work them in the Discord channel. I wanted to put them here too, in case you don't have Discord for some reason!
Making renders of the characters and finalizing them into game images has been my life since I got home from visiting family Thanksgiving, and all the day before too. I made over 200 character images so far, and I'm not slowing down!! I h...

Your overstuffed housewife pauses, looks at you, and sighs.
"I'm so full... But there's still gravy left."
"I could save it for later. It doesn't make a lot of sense though - you ate everything else." You reply.
You pass her the gravy pot and offer -
"There's just a bit left, you can finish it."
She eyes the gravy like a dog would a slab of meat. You know she w...

Writing is done, daydreams are done, the game compiles and runs, and now it's time to plow through a HUGE backlog of images over the holiday break to push for a really buggy release for testing in the next week!
I originally wanted a full release with a test build out in that time frame but that won't happen, I grossly underestimated the sheer amount of dialogue in t...

In Chapter 3, the housewife agrees to become a creamerie. It has a lot of effects on her physique depending on your choice of AE, BE, Preg, or WG.
This teaser is from the BE route during a daydream - I won't spoil the story - but she gets a lot lot uh... lot bigger in the daydream that starts from this image. That daydream's fully written already with lots more daydreams and side content...

There's been a lot of requests for more Mia, massive Mia, milky Mia - the alliteration involved is hilarious. The requests aren't lost on me though - I finished writing all her story this week! I also made a few renders, so here's a teaser of more Mia at her growth size 13. She goes all the way to 18, so you can expect her to be immense at the end of the story if you interact with her a lot! 2024-11-03 18:45:49 +0000 UTC View Post
I've started to take breaks here and there to work on character design when I hit a writing block. Emilia is one of the characters in the new update. She's cute and has a nice butt. <3 I already have her core story written, but I'm always open to ideas if you have any for the characters daydreaming or could work them into the story if the ideas sound good!
Writing is going well, since ...

I hope everyone's having a good weekend! This week totally kicked my butt, but I was still able to put in some time last night and finish up Fifty Shades of Orange.
This has a couple more minigames (including the cake feeding one!), bugfixes, the secret ending actually implemented, and the end CGs with the characters getting really big.
Take a look at the Patron-exclusive test bui...
2024-09-15 15:19:03 +0000 UTC View PostI worked all night to try to finish everything, but as normal, I took on too much. The game's pretty complete, but I have to patch in two minigames, a sex scene, and some images in that I had to remove to make the deadline.
I'll patch all those in with a bugfix for anything that's found after release, but the game should be pretty stable.
Right, so this is a text-only update with nothing to actually show, but the story for Fifty Shades of Orange is fully written, done, and base debugged.
I need to finish debugging two minigames, make around 60 more images, and do a lot of voice acting in the next... 2 days and 13 hours. No big deal, right?
