2015-03-30 21:40:22 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! These last couple of days have been quite productive, so unless I run into unexpected difficulties of rather greater difficulty than usual you can expect the next version to be out within a week. I hope you all have a happy weekend :)

2015-03-16 21:22:41 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! The results for the Match vote are ready. This one was a bit closer than the last. The big opinion divider as consensual rape roleplaying, which had the 2nd most first choice votes but was also a lot of people's last choice. In the end, the winner was again the option which had the most first choice votes: Doggy-style sex. The ch...
2015-03-14 20:30:46 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone, I hope you're having a good start to the weekend. I've sent out Patreon messages to all the successfully-processed voter patrons with the options for this month's vote. Results will be posted on the 14th.
2015-03-07 00:56:19 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! There was a bug in 0.2.9 where you could end up stuck with no actions during the club dance scene. Sorry for any trouble you went through. I've fixed that and made a new jar which is attached to this post. Please use that one instead of yesterday's.
2015-03-06 01:33:47 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! Version 0.2.9 is ready and I've attached the jar to this post. I'll put the changelog up on the blog soon. Have fun :) Edit: changelog is http://splendidostrich.blogspot.co.uk/2015/03/newlife-version-029-released.html Edit2: There's a bug in this version. Please use the jar uploaded the day after instead.
2015-03-04 23:43:16 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone, and thank you so much for your support this month! I'll be starting the vote on the first milestone reward soon. That'll be a new sex scene - or a similarly-sized erotic scene of some kind anyway. If there's any scenes you want to see added, then you can suggest them here, as long as you get them in before I send out the voting ch...
2015-03-02 15:51:57 +0000 UTC View PostThank you so much for the support this month!
2015-03-01 07:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostThanks for voting everyone! Friendship won the vote and will be the 0.4 update. The next vote will be for what to do for the first milestone reward. I want to start that early next month - probably within a week or so.
2015-03-01 00:57:24 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! It's taken me a while, but with 4 new scenes this is a big update. I've done the usual amount of testing but haven't worked through every single path in the new scenes. If I get any major bug reports then I'll fix them tomorrow and push a patch version out. This update focuses on dancing. There's still some changes due to be made ...
2015-02-24 01:26:00 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone, I've sent the messages out for this month's Patron vote. If you didn't receive a message and you successfully pledged at voter-tier in January then let me know. Voting choices are in this blog post: http://spl...
2015-02-19 04:08:42 +0000 UTC View PostHi all, I hope you all had a great weekend! Thanks to your support we've reached the first milestone goal. My plan with that is to run a vote at the beginning of next month to decide what new scene will be added. If there's a scene that you want to put forward as a candidate for voting then either message me or post it here in a comment. Because ...
2015-02-15 21:57:30 +0000 UTC View PostThis version just has one change over the last one - the Buy & Donate buttons on the shopping screen have been moved to the middle of the screen, so players on smaller resolutions should still be able to click them. If your resolution is big enough for you to see the whole window at the default 1000x800 size then there's no need for you to dow...
2015-02-10 13:43:57 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! It's maybe not obvious to people who don't spend their time poking around in Patreon's FAQ, but I thought I'd just mention that you can set your patronage to be private in your account settings. To do so just select "Edit Account" from the menu at the top right and uncheck the tickbox near the bottom of the page that reads "My prof...
2015-02-09 18:23:50 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! I had a few bug reports, so here's a new version of 0.2.7 with some fixes and a few new additions. I've updated the blog post with the changelog already. Edit: I've removed the file to mediafire because it was possible for non-patrons to see it in some cases. You can download the file directly from this post using Patreon. If this is causi...
2015-02-09 03:04:56 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! I've decided to start offering early access to Newlife updates as the $5 patron reward. My original plan was to put extra hours in this month and get two releases out at the same time. Despite, or perhaps because of being stuck at home ill half last week, I've succeeded fairly well in putting in the extra time. Whether my code qual...
2015-02-08 02:50:01 +0000 UTC View PostThank you so much for the support this month!
2015-02-01 07:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostHope you're all having a good weekend :) The new skill vote is exactly tied between Dance and Fitness. Voter-tier patrons can message me or comment here to let me know which they prefer. If they're still equal by next Saturday then I'll just toss a coin to decide. The vote rankings were: 1. Dance & Fitness 2. Martial Arts 3. Fashion 4. Singing...
2015-01-25 14:16:20 +0000 UTC View PostStill a few hours left to vote. I've done a preliminary count and the top two choices are exactly tied at the moment, so your vote could be critical!
2015-01-24 13:02:10 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! I know it's been a while since the last release. The next one still needs some changes before I put it online. In the meantime I'm going to put the dev version up here so you can have a go with it. This has a new scene which you can get into by going on a date in town with some types of men. Let me know if you find any bugs - testing has ...
2015-01-20 20:02:10 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! There's a few new voter-tier patrons who've joined after I sent out this month's voting messages. The voting deadline is Saturday 24th. If you've just joined then you can still vote as long as you get in before then. To vote, send me a patreon message with a first choice (which gets 1 point) and 2 secondary choices (0.5 points each) from t...
2015-01-20 13:32:36 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! I think I've sent out messages about the new skill to everyone who's eligible to vote. If you're a voter-tier patron and you didn't get one then let me know. I'll count the votes in about a week - Saturday 24th.
2015-01-17 01:04:50 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! Thanks for the support :) I'll be running a vote soon for all voter-tier patrons. This will be to decide which skill gets new content for the 0.3 release. The chosen skill will get specific activities if it doesn't have them already, plus some unique events that trigger based on the skill. It'll also get interactions with existing scenes ...

2015-01-01 07:59:00 +0000 UTC View PostHi all! This is the current Newlife dev jar. There'll be more stuff added before I make a full release, but you can have a go with it now if you like. Changlog so far: - Improved how men are chosen for nightclubs. You'll now always get 4-6 men on a night out, which will usually be slightly more than earlier versions. - Fixed some text bugs – ...
2014-12-28 16:54:52 +0000 UTC View PostThank you for your support guys! I'm really encouraged by how well things have started off and I really appreciate your generosity :) A few people on mentioned on the forums that my milestone goals are perhaps rather optimistic while I'm just starting out. True enough! I'm holding fire until the next update because there are some bugfixes I want t...
