Have fun everyone and let me know if you find any bugs!

Inner Circle Post for 0.4.13

Hi all,

I'm starting on the Prove-Me-Wrong stuff for this release. It's currently painful for me to spend long periods at the keyboard so instead of trying to rush it all into one release I'm focusing on the shorter part first: the cunning stuff. That'll be 0.4.13 and I'll do the BF's friend content in the release after.

The main sex...

PMW vote results

Hi all!

I've run the PMW vote and it's by far the closest one yet. Not only did options D and G finish joint-third by only 1 vote, the final result was a tie.

The winners are: 

E: Cunning additions where the PC gets to manipulate various NPCs in existing scenes

K: PC's BF's jerk friend 

The official so...

Progress update

Hi all,

I've got a minor muscle injury this week. Nothing even slightly serious, but it's limiting my keyboard time a bit. I've had this sort of thing before and it doesn't usually last more than a week or so, but I figured I'd post to let you know.

Because of this I've been focusing most of my keyboard-time on writing the...

PMW vote 2017

Hi all,
It's time for the PMW vote to determine what'll be in the upcoming "prove me wrong" release where I implement something I otherwise wasn't planning to add to the game based on voters opinions.

I use a program which runs an alternative-vote system where the voting is divided into rounds. For the first round the number of firs...

Newlife dev version

Hi all!

Here's a dev version of Newlife. Hopefully this will have all the additions and changes I'm making to the custom scene framework for the next release.

It might not be especially interesting to non-writers as it doesn't include the main scene I'm working on for 0.4.12, but if you're a writer following the scene exam...

PMW ideas

Hi all!

It's coming up to time for the PMW release. That's when I dedicate a release to something that otherwise might not make it into the game, or at least wouldn't be a priority.

This is the post where I gather suggestions to put in the voting list. I'll collect them and start the vote on Wednesday the 20th.

There are some g...

Inner Circle post for 0.4.12

Hi all!

The next release will focus on a step-by-step walkthrough of creating a scene that'll be added to Newlife.

I've started preparing the groundwork for the scene: one where a jerk the PC has slept with tries to blackmail her into (more) sex with the threat of telling her partner.

I'll be making a series of blog posts about...

Newlife 0.4.11

Hi all, here's an initial version of 0.4.11. I've completed a first round of testing with no game-breaking bugs found. I'll be doing a few more checks over the next day or so, but I don't see any reason not to let you guys play with it now.

Early public release of 0.4.10?

Hi all,

As a $5 supporter, you're normally guaranteed to be a version ahead of the public one.

However, 0.4.10's main addition is support for user-written submissions that can be sent to me for inclusion in the game.

I think that it'll be more beneficial for everyone, patrons and non-patrons alike, if this is made public earlie...

Inner Circle post for 0.4.11

Hi all,

I've started work on the cheating update. There's quite a lot of content that can be written about this so it might be best split over several releases. One thing I'd like to do is implement the core section first and then add a small event in the custom-scene format rather than directly in the Java. That way writers can...

0.4.10 updated again

Hi all, I mistakenly left in a test section in the earlier post which meant your character started the game pregnant. Here's a version with that fixed.

Newlife 0.4.10 updated

Edit: The version on this post had a bug that meant your character started the game pregnant. See this post for a version without that issue: https://www.patreon.com/posts/0-4-10-updated-13689915

Hi all,

Update coming tomorrow

Hi all, I've got an update to 0.4.10 with some improvements to how custom scenes are handled.

There's a few final things that I want to look at with a fresh head, so I'm going to sleep on it and finish it off tomorrow. You can expect that version out sometime then.

Newlife 0.4.10

Hi all, this is version 0.4.10 of Newlife. Mostly this just adds support for user-submitted scenes, along with over 100 pages of documentation. Such a joy to write, and there's some areas that still need work...

Custom scene discussion

Hi, this is a post for discussion & questions about the in-testing custom scene content. Please post comments here rather than sending PMs or using the Inner Circle post as that way everyone can see them and my answers.

Dev version

Hi all! Here's a dev version of Newlife which allows for custom scenes to be written.

I'll also be putting this out to some various non-inner-circle patrons who've asked for it. I'll make a new post with a lower access level for feedback - please post any comments you have there so they can also see them.

To try out the example custo...

A quick update

Hi all!

Just a quick update to let you know how I'm getting on.

I've been working on a system to allow custom scenes to be parsed and run by Newlife. This is now almost complete with three large caveats. First, it needs further testing, second I need to get it working with the build process which could be aa quick & easy task or ...

Inner Circle post for 0.4.10

Hi all!

So, I haven't posted much lately. I sometimes get stressed out about posting online so I find that my work goes smoother if I just stick to my little coding/writing bubble and ignore the outside world for a bit.

Progress on the next version is going well. Initially it looked like supporting conditionals was going t...

Newlfie 0.4.9.b (patched version)

Hi all, I've fixed a few bugs in 0.4.9. Please use this version instead of the one uploaded yesterday.

Fixes:

- Fixed bug where paying for your wedding dress broke the scene. Thanks to Saur and Der kitting Kampf for reporting this.

- Fixed a bug reported by Saint Destiny and Marakh where clothing couldn't be donated to cha...

Newlife 0.4.9

Update: I've uploaded a patched version with some bugfixes. Please use 0.4.9.b instead of 0.4.9. The version attached to this post has been updated.

Hi all, not been the best week - I've had some issues with stress which affected my writing a bit. Still, the new release is done now and hopefully things will go a bit smoother in the coming ...

Inner Circle post for 0.4.9

Hi all!

As I'd anticipated, I mostly lost internet access for a while after releasing 0.4.8. I'm back online now and can report that I've made good progress on the next version. The makeout changes are completed - I took the extra time to make a number of improvements to the makeout scenes as well as the from-behind content.

I'm quit...

Newlife 0.4.8

Hi all!

I might not be able to get online later this month so I'm releasing 0.4.8 now. There are still some changes I want to make, especially with the makeout scene - annoyingly an extra few days would have made a big difference.

Instead, I'll put those changes in the next version. This will, however, let me look into some more acti...

18/19 age category vote

Hi all,

I've been a bit stressed out lately, so I haven't been online all that much - I like to avoid interacting with people when I'm feeling stressed.

However, I had promised a small vote on what to rename the 18/19 age-category. My apologies for getting to this so late.

The options are:

Eighteen or Nineteen:

The ...

Inner Circle post for 0.4.8

Hi all!

Not much to say about 0.4.8 - I'm going to add a new sex scene (standing from behind). This will share a superclass with the Doggy sex scene so there'll be a fair amount of overlap, similar to that between standing and missionary.

I plan for the next scene to have 2 sub-positions: either using your hands to steady yourself ag...

Newlife 0.4.7b (patched version)

Hi all! Here's a patched version of 0.4.7 with some bugs fixed. Please use this one instead of Sunday's version. There's also a new cheat option that forces your fiance to agree to your vow demands.

I'll add the changelog to the 0.4.7 one on the blog.

Newlife 0.4.7

Hi all, here's the patron version of 0.4.7. This one could probably have used a little more testing time so be sure to tell me if you find any significant bugs and I'll get them sorted ASAP.

The changelog is on the blog. Enjoy the new version!

Inner Circle post for 0.4.7

Hi all! For the next release I'll be continuing to go over my backlog of messages and posts as well as looking into more content leading up to marriage.

At the moment the scene I've been looking into is the 'wedding vows' one where you and your fiance make (binding) promises to each other about what married life will be like.

I've st...

Newlife 0.4.6

Hi all, Newlife 0.4.6 is ready, although I'm struggling with a sleep-deprivation-induced headache today so I won't write too much about it at this point. 

The main change is a rework of the stress system. The changelog is on the blog at 2017-03-30 20:34:49 +0000 UTC View Post
