Hi guys and gals, this post offers you a collection of news about the next full version of Holiday Island (0.1.6 beta) and the smaller updates towards it. 

There will be smaller, more frequent content updates, called content addons. They will include bug fixes and new content as well.
The change log below is based on the beta 0.1.5.0 release.

0.1.5.2 beta will need 0.1.5 base files and it will include everything from 0.1.5.1 beta with all content addons and bug fixes.

The next release is 0.1.6.0 beta which will be another full update!
It includes some bug fixes and a lot of new content!
Sorry, but there is no other way, since the new animation control from the tech demo requires the latest version of Ren'Py (at least 7.2.2).

Will the shower off of the gym be converted into an actual Location that the MC can go to just to see who is there?

darkhound1

That is the plan - yes, but not in the next release.

Tobias

Love when an email pops in telling me there is something new here, loking forward to 1.52.. ^^

darkhound1

Thanks. I hope the update won't disappoint :)

Tobias

You have never disappointed before - and this time Aly gets more stuff.. Please another fav, Yvette..^^

Bradley Williams

@darkhound I have no idea why you have only 652 patrons. The design of you game HI is awesome. You are freaking legend dude !!!

2026-11-01 13:00 Will the nurse outfits be added to the special achievements list for groping and flashing? In .1.5 they weren't and it felt like a really odd omission.
2019-03-26 01:18

darkhound1

Not yet, it takes too much time unfortunately. The special outfit renders are in webp format in double resolution, which makes it very complicated to be added to the same list and logic as the older png renders.

Bradley Williams

You caught me! This summer, when I get a job... you have my word

Power Conduit_Maximus34 Art 18+

I had a problem with going through Jennifer's story again at the bar. Did that one get fixed because It takes a while to get through.

darkhound1

I'm not aware that there is a problem with her story. Can you be a bit more specific what kind of problem you had with her story?

Power Conduit_Maximus34 Art 18+

I went all the way through it once. Then, had the bar interaction with her at closing time and it started again. It was strange.

Puppet Master

Can we have the option to have the girls change clothes at the reception desk. It'd be nice to be able to get all the flash scenes. Perhaps if you haven't payed enough attention to her for her to wear her skimpy costume, she could say, "Maybe if you're a good boy, I'll give you a reward." If you ask again, but too soon, she could get angry and say, "How dare you? You barely pay any attention to me while I'm stuck working here. Then when you do, it's to ask me to dress sexy for you!"

Puppet Master

When the groping scenes are added to the achievements, I think that they should be separate from the flash achievement. Also, will the doctor flash and grope be added to the achievement?

Puppet Master

Maybe the story could be put on a long cool down, like 2 weeks, so that we could get it again, but not often.

Puppet Master

Faye has a red dress when she is sitting at the restaurant, but orange all other times. Can you fix her seated image? Also, I think all the girls should be able to flash the outfits they wear to the restaurant. Maybe if the outfit is complicated, she could say, "This outfit is complicated, I'll need some help." Ideally, I want to see the girls flash in every outfit they have.

Puppet Master

I finally got the Ivy true strength scene. I like where the super strength thing is going. Maybe flexing could be added to the intimate actions, but I know that I'm in the minority on this one. However, as part of the strength story, I'd like to have the weaker girls flex and say, "My biceps were never this big before. Where did these muscles come from? I'm lifting way more weight than I used to."

Puppet Master

I had trouble updating to 1.5.1 from 1.5.0. Everyone should check the About button to be sure they're running the latest version of the game. I think that my problem was that I used unren on 1.5.0, then tried to update and it failed. If you are having trouble updating, reload, update, then unren. It should work.

Puppet Master

I think that I broke Yumiko's "Guess who?" mini-game. She sent me 2 pics then stopped for 30 days. Any way I can get her to start up again?

darkhound1

You are right, I fixed the text now.

darkhound1

They will be part of the same achievement and the doctor won't be added right now. It's too complicated, since the overlay image is in double resolution and I have no way of handling that right now (without putting a lot of new code in).

Puppet Master

Could it be done by creating an image specifically for the achievement? Just spitballing, I don't really know how it works. At least you are thinking about it. The reason I asked for groping to be separate is because it would add 1 more achievement to each girl instead of making one huge achievement.

Puppet Master

Will the "Come Along" images ever be part of the achievements, or are they likewise too difficult?

darkhound1

No, because they are nothing special.

darkhound1

Wanted to fix this for ages, always forgot it. Did it now :)

darkhound1

Talk to her in the night bar about it again.

Puppet Master

I did. I asked her to stop, then I asked her to start again. I had no erection twice at Last Call. Maybe the chance for it to happen is too low. I'll try it with an older game & let you know. I just thought there was a code I could enter to make it happen.

Puppet Master

I like them (they're hot), and it's hard to get all of them, but it's probably not worth the amount of work it would take.

darkhound1

It should already be easy to make them change. Just ignore them for 3 days or visit and talk grope, whatever with them very often.

Puppet Master

Sometimes when you ask to switch girls they start in their skimpy outfit, which can't be changed to regular.

darkhound1

I have heard that from others as well. It shouldn't be like that. I've checked the code and couldn't see any errors. Do you have a save file on end of sunday where that happens on the switch to monday?

darkhound1

There is, but I have to search for it myself. I didn't create that part of the code. I had a little helper santa named Wilson who did it for me :)

Puppet Master

It happens when you switch ask to have a girl reassigned to reception, but the previous girl was wearing the skimpy reception outfit. The new girl appears wearing the skimpy outfit also.

Puppet Master

When we get achievements like yoga or weightlifting, but especially Aly posing topless at the pool, could we see all outfits as we do for the flash achievement? So under Aly posing topless at the pool, you would see 4 of 8 when you got her to do it in the blue bikini, then 8 of 8 when you got her to do it in the skimpy bikini. Alternately, there could be multiple achievements for the same act, just with different outfits. For instance, each girl could have a pecs training in bathing suit, pecs training in bikini, pecs training in skimpy bikini. You initially objected because that many achievements would foul up the phone interface, but now that there is scrolling it wouldn't be bad. However, I understand it's a lot of work, especially when you're adding sounds, etc.

darkhound1

Short answer - no, not if it's the exact same scene just 2 or 3 times. The way the game is designed right now doesn't make a destinction between outfits within the same scene.

Puppet Master

Wilson NE fixed it for me. The code is: call create_minigame_picture_pool.

Ted Cogley

ok I have been a supporter and I love the game. I don't know how to go about this so im letting you know here I found a error in script when your weight lifting with Ivy. you cant ignore it only rollback and the reload option didn't work you can only close the game out

darkhound1

Hi, please post the full crash report or I can't do anything about it.

Bantry

I love Eva, really I do, but isn't it about time for another girl to be the icon for the game?

Puppet Master

My bet is that you are still running 1.5.0. It's been fixed in 1.5.1. Click the About button to find out what version you are running. If it's 1.5.0, try updating from the Patreon page. If that doesn't work, you may need to reload the whole game and then update. (That's what I had to do.)

Puppet Master

I'd like to see a new girl icon for every major update. 1.6 could get Delizia, 1.7 could get Faye, 1.8 could be Yvette, etc.

Tobias

Sweet, sounds like there isn´t too much left for the next update, maybe..? ;)

Puppet Master

Suggestion for a future update. An intimate action to be added after the flash action: Breast Kissing or Sucking. After you succeed at getting her breasts out of her clothes, a dialogue option could appear for you to ask her if you can kiss them. If she is alone and her lust and love is high, she'll let you.

Puppet Master

Suggestion for a future update: Booty Calls. From 11pm to 3 am, a girl could text you that she's lonely and invite you over with a button for accept. If you press it, the scene starts. Some girls might just want to cuddle all night (Jessica or Aly), while others would be looking to have sex, then kick you out (Amy or Joy).

darkhound1

It will still be some time before it's ready for testing.

Tobias

That sounds really nice.. ^^

darkhound1

It sounds like hundreds of boring to do renders. Sorry, but it's too much work for too little benefit. Maybe later for one girl or two.

Puppet Master

I thought of only 18 renders for 18 girls, but I forgot to multiply by 9 outfits. Perhaps it could only happen if the girl is wearing her sexiest outfit. She could say, "Normally, nothing could make me do that in public, but this outfit always makes me feel so sexy, let's do it." Put it in the possibly pile for later.

Tobias

Lovelly! For some reason I look forward to the titty-sucking part with yvette, Faye´s new stuff - but most importantly, what happens to Aly in the Hot Shots scene.. ;)

GrowTifa's Library

Anyone have an issue with Ivy weightlifting and have a crash as she's racking the weights?

Power Conduit_Maximus34 Art 18+

I hope that Yvette's story is going g where I hope it is..... I would flip if it is. Love all of here content up til this point. Haven't let me down yet.

Puppet Master

Yes, it is a known bug fixed with 1.5.1. Check the About button to make sure you aren't running 1.5.0. You may have tried to update, but the critical parts failed because you ran unren. You may need to start over. Load 1.5.0, then update, check to see that it took, add the new appointments file, then unren. Good luck.

S9bombhill

Hey dark do you mean may 1st? Or are you taking us back in time? XD

Tobias

Ah shit, I misread it as May 5th.. Maybe it is 1st? :) Whatever, it is gonna be soon, looking so much forward to it.. :)

darkhound1

Just look at the updated date. Not my fault that every country is using a different date format. It's first of May :)

darkhound1

There will be a lot of fun with yvette :)

Power Conduit_Maximus34 Art 18+

I would think so. She's basically the poster girl for the game and for good reason. Would be like not being able to enjoy 2B in nier automata...

darkhound1

Yvette also gets some titty-sucking :)

Tobias

That´s what they are there for, right? ;)

Tobias

Or that some idiots (me) can´t fucking read..! ;)

S9bombhill

Hard to read when you got tiddys and butts on your screen ;)

Puppet Master

Alternately, you could call them night visits and have a girl knock on the door of the PC's room. She shows up in her lingerie to say she needs some company and the night progresses according to the girl's wishes. Yvette's would already be done. 17 more to go.

John Simson

awesome something to do on the two days off from work :D

Puppet Master

Idea for 1.7 to make appointments easier: Afer we know a girl's measurements, we hardly ever use the "Serious Talk" button again. (I don't know what to call this button, but it's under the regular talk button.) Add another question: "Can we meet up later?" If you don't have all her measurements, she'll answer: "I don't think so, since I hardly know you." If she has any anger, she'll answer: "Not interested! I'm still mad at you!" Otherwise, she'll say, "Sure! Where and when?" You choose from the beach, the pool, the gym or the night bar, then pick the time. This way you wouldn't have to catch the girl in her room in order to schedule the date.

darkhound1

Good idea - I will see if I can do that without too much trouble. Edit: Already done, it will be part of 0.1.6 :)

darkhound1

Haha, I hope it's time well spent :)

Brianiac

I've switched to YYYY-MM-DD format because I never know where people are from when reading dates!

Puppet Master

There are not enough likes in the world for you! Thanks so much!

JHB

when will we see your next release?

darkhound1

Funny question, since the date (today) is in the post above :) You can download it since about 5 minutes.

Kurosaru

Say, is there a way to see the 'arrival scene' for the girls you start on the island with? Not even for the room number specifically but rather to see if they have any special intros with erotic views like flashing their breasts or something?

darkhound1

Yes there is - send them home, bring them back.
