It's good to be back to writing games. The visual novel was fun, but it didn't do anything under the hood. Now I get to weave secret Easter eggs into the code for you guys again.

Actually, I'm finding myself expanding most of the parts of the earlier version of "Lisa Unwound." This version will be a bit more focused and more consistent. And larger (ver 1 was on the smaller side). The October release won't be the entire game, but it will be plenty enough to have fun.

On a more pragmatic note, the age verification laws of some states are having an impact. Since I started sharing my creations, I've tried to keep pretty much everything -- every game, every comic, every visual novel -- available. The free stuff stayed available for free, the naughtier stuff as a free bonus for supporters.

If you haven't explored them and still want to, take a look at them soon. I'm going to start pulling down the older stuff by the next time I give a status update in about three weeks. I want to to keep the last project (A Matter of Will) up, along with the current project. I need to reduce my exposure (pardon the pun) of places I might have accidentally let a woman be show with less than 30% of her body covered -- stuff like that.

Until next time, live well,
Wolfgang

I talked the ladies into--

I mean, if I were Dr Diggler, I would have talked the ladies into helping with getting everything copied over and configured on the new machine. And of course, the ladies provide distractions themselves.

I have some friends worried that Patreon or Subscribestar will go nuts removing all NSFW games like Steam and especially itch.io did. I'm proceeding like those two will stay sane. If Patreon does wipe out all games, I'll switch to primarily use SubscribeStar, and vice versa. If they both go nuts -- well, I'll still be making little games (because I like telling stories) and will look around for some other way to share them.

Work is proceeding, and I'm still aiming for a Halloweenish release for Lisa 2.0.


Until next time, live well,

Well, it sounds like the majority opinion is to take the time to release an update for "Lisa Unwound." Thanks to everyone that shared feedback.

I'm already brainstorming ideas. We'll have some CMNF threads, and watch the lengths a mother will go to protect her adult daughter, even when said daughter has been pretty bitchy to her lately. And then there's Lisa's let-down when her idol turns out to be just human, with warts and throbbing weaknesses and all.

When I released the last version of LISA, I tied off loose ends so it ended at a reasonable breaking point. Now I'm looking at unsuturing those ends to grow more development for the update. Lisa's BFF Pauline and Pauline's college professor mom had a falling out that we blew through pretty quickly. We'll probably take a little more time with their fight this time.

Pauline is a grown woman, so moves out of the house. But she's not a working woman yet (just a student), soo ...

So she moves in with Diggler. But Diggler's house, Diggler's rules, and no clothes for ladies in Diggler's house. We'll follow her through from feeling awkward about that to feeling natural about being nude around the house.

Just a preview of what's to come. You'll be playing Diggler, so get your devilishly amoral hat ready to put on.

Until next time, live well,
Wolfgang

Well, I've been coding up a storm the last couple weeks.

Most of the logic changes have been worked into the game engine. And so far, no major snags -- yay!

To run the engine through its paces, to shake any quirks out, I've been translating part of "Lisa Unwound" into the new format.

Ha, but darned if it isn't fun revisiting Dr Diggler and Lisa. And Lisa's BFF Pauline. And Pauline's mom, Professor Williams (Prof. Williams is the embarrassed chick with the feather duster above).

Fun enough that the thought keeps occurring to me to borrow just a little time to release a remastered and updated version of "Lisa Unwound." Now, the other game I talked about -- about our hero and his girlfriend's mom and the stage hypnotist, tentatively titled, "Taking Sinner Stage" -- is still on the table. The question is whether to plow directly into that new game, or dally briefly updating the older game with Diggler and Lisa.

Let me know if either game sounds more interesting to you, and I'll factor in feedback I receive.


Until next time, live well,
Wolfgang
