Alright, we're going to cover two things with this post;
First, what we did for the $20k goal as a compromise (and a poll to go with it).
Then, we'll cover your answers from the $20k poll we did earlier.
As always, if you'd like to come talk to us on Discord, we're over at https://discord.gg/puXrfSm :)
------------------------------
First, as a compromise, regardless of what funding level we get, there will now be a mini-nude mode game segment within the game.
We haven't fully locked down exactly what we want to do with it, but here's the things we have locked down;
It'll be during The End
You'll need to have all the Fragments/Gold Databanks by the end of the Earth Level, so Vie needs to be with you/needs to be on the true ending path
It'll involve a short segment of gameplay with multiple enemies from previous levels (around 5-6 enemies)
Talia won't have any clothes on of course, so it'll be one hit KO, like a stealth section (we're still working on this though/refining this part in particular)
All the enemies involved in this section from previous levels will get a single new H2 animation each (nude sex animations), so around 5-6 new H2 animations
Tl;dr:
5-6 new sex animations
Talia gets to run around naked in a mini-stealth section
It's happening regardless of funding level
There's a poll down below; please let us know what you think about these changes/additions to the game!
===================
Second, about the poll results for the new 20K goal.
Honestly, we decided to (for the time being at least) remove the 20K goal.
If we do come up with any sort of reasonable 20K goal we'll put it up in the future, but for now yeah, we're going to delete it and then of course we'll have the mini-nude mode as a compromise that's getting in either way.
The reason we're not putting in a new 20K goal is because we honestly can't come up with anything viable to put for it; every request people had was either something we already had planned for the game, like these features which we already have planned for the full game that were suggested for the 20K goal;
Cheat codes (and a lot of them at that)
Gallery to replay CGs, databanks, animations, cutscenes, etc.
Boss Rush (special ending for this mode)
Speedrun Mode (all cutscenes disabled, RNG disabled, timer in corner, special ending for this mode)
Achievements/Unlocks
Easter Egg Endings
POV Animations
Challenge Map DLC
All the other suggestions unfortunately (and we read through every one of them, we promise) were just far too costly on time or finances to be able to pull them off within any reasonable timeframe (we're talking years for most of the other suggestions, and half a year for the rest of them at least.)
Hopefully this mini-nude mode we talked about above is a reasonable compromise for you all though; please let us know what you think in the poll below!
