Purchase LoQO figurines - WebShop
And/Or follow me on - TwitterI didn't take a break last week like I said, and instead kept trucking on like normal. x3
But just confessing I might need to take a short break seem to have removed a lot of stress and allowed me to carry on like usual, still, if I start to feel burn out again I'll take some time off, for realsies this time!
This week I've been working on updating all indoor locations (again) to give a better feeling houses have rooms, by adding doors and/or additional archways.
I also changed door interractions so they require a button press, instead of simply walking into them, although only for doors you can actually see so leaving houses will remain like before.
I've also spent a lot of time experimenting on battles and decided I'm going to add a new feature based around destructable clothing, nothing too fancy, but if a female character's health gets too low or they are knocked out, their outfits will be torn and they'll get a negative "embarrassed" status that will only be removed if they change clothes or rest.
It's not too much of a handicap if you want to keep them in the "embarrassed" mode though, as the only negative impact it really has is making it impossible to avoid/dodge attacks.
And on that subject, all the battleposes are going to be remade by a different artist to take the destructable clothing into consideration, with teen Farah's default pose/outfit on preview here!
I think that's enough information for one update, yeees?
I'll see you guys again next Tuesday, and sorry if I had anyone worried with my last update!
Definitely on board, that new pose is awesome! Love how it shows off her figure. Plus, embarrassed more gives us more incentive to grind when battling :)
ReplyDeleteGrind, or losing on purpose...? ;P
DeleteLosing on purpose? I would do no such thing.....
Delete:)
But how long do you think it will take you to implement this kind of system? Is it looking surprisingly easy or difficult?
Losing on purpose... What are you even talking about?..
Delete( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
It's pretty easy, but a chore to do since it involves a lot of copy/pasting for a couple of hours... XD
DeleteAlthough what takes the longest time will be to have all the new battleposes, outfits and torn variations made.
Ah right forgot about the different outfits
DeleteI can't wait to get more characters into my tent as currently you can only get Farah( I think). Also more content with our fuzzy friend with the big puppies(you know who I am talking about ;P )
DeleteThe torn clothes should include the males too. ;-) I can enjoy a nice big cock before I lose.
ReplyDeleteEven if the cheese-beard guy comes back!?
DeleteOh hell yes Gabe, you know what kind of girl I am :-P
DeleteEven if big fat Rugart was to join the party. ;-)
Come to think of it, how many girls are there in our free-views-on-sexual-life-and-habits community? I guess, too few.
DeleteWell Neferis, I can only say "at least 1", :-P
DeleteAnd maybe Gabe herself. Maybe.
DeleteGuess we should popularize it amongst girls more actively.
@Cian Browne
DeleteMonsters with dicks may be a good idea. And not only monsters. You know, I was wondering why battleposes showed males with no dignity between their legs even though this dignity may sometimes reach incredible proportions in their everyday life.
Glad you keep up improving the game. The new battleposes with the new feature is a very pleasant surprise for me. :-)
ReplyDeleteGot pretty many questions over here. I won't mind if you don't anwser them all. ;-)
1) Are you planning to release LoQO:O in Steam (SFW version of the game + adult patch) one day?
2) When will the first optional side-stories of female companions arrive to the game?
3) Seems like kissing is a rare thing in LoQO. What do you think about making it a more common event in the game world? Like in story H-scenes or through a dialogue option leading to a kissing scene, maybe, as a prelude to sex.
4) Will Black Dame join Devon's party? (Please)
Personally while I like this idea a SFW version might be a bit boring. Story wise LOQO:O and indeed all the LOQO games are verry nice and well made but reliant on Adult content or at least the story has a very adult nature to it. To take all that out to make it SFW enough for steam would require a lot of modification to the story(or it would potentially be very short)and might not feel like even the same game.
DeleteMost of the games on steam which have this come from developers who originally designed their games to do such or who's games were already very close to Valve's guidelines on such.
Kissing is kinda softcore and not really in the spirit of this game(at least in my opinion) though I would not rule out a little kissing when it comes to the main character and Farah or possibly Gabriel( or any other possible love interest who enters the game later like maybe a masked individual who may or may not be somebody from the MC's past? ) Black Dame COULD enter into the MC's party sometime in the story though personally I doubt it as she did state at one point front lines fighting is not her specialty and is more suited to gathering intel and running his operations from the castle. This could change as Gabe wills it but I get the feeling if that happens it's a little while off yet.
Well LOQO II had a "clean version" with no adult content. Honestly I would say no to Steam, Gabe's current model is fine, the game gets into the hands of the fans and the more fans come from Gabes work and Sparrows art and the art of all the other game artists.

Delete@Cian Browne
1) I may be wrong but I believe that if there were the SFW version in Steam, most of the players would still later install the adult patch over it. So, firstly, they would be able to access the game via Steam, which is a great advantage itself, and secondly, they basically wouldn't lose anything. At least I think of that this way.
@Joe Johnson
3) I believe, kissing is one of the basic actions when it comes to love relationships and sex in particular. I guess, one-night-stand hookers are the only ones who you wouldn't intend to kiss in the first place when you sleep with them. But I'm sure, everyone in Devon's team is supposed to form strong bonds with him sooner or later and become friends at least. So, why no kiss?
4) I personally want Black Dame in the party firstly because it offers a lot of new opportunities such as visiting Summer Cove together, the tent sex, different outfits, destructible clothes (as it's been stated in this update) and so on. As for her fighting skills, well, I doubt that, for example, Farah could be called a skillful fighter herself. And still, everyone in Devon's squad can level up. :-)
People may think there safe from the "i've already looked through here" bandit now that the doors need interacting but life is a cruel mistress.....they'll see....>:)
ReplyDeleteHah! Nothing can stop that stalker from going through your house... xD
DeleteNothing can stand between someone and there 100% game completion!
DeleteBy the way, I think you should create a new female companion based on 2B (both externally and internally), like Auril did with Luxia in BiB.
ReplyDeleteI think androids are a bit too modern... x)
DeleteWell, I didn't mean her to be an android.
DeleteAuril's Luxia is basically a draenei who wears clothes similar to original 2B's (an eye bandage included) and acts more like 2B (in comparison to ordinary Auril's characters).
Here's a screenshot:
Deletehttps://i.imgur.com/s1mjuSF.jpg
By the way, you and Auril have pretty much in common. And she's a girl, worth to mention. :-)
You could always make a golem girl, since they're basically the magical equivalent of robots, though she'd probably look a bit more "rocky" than 2B :P
DeleteThere's also the option of "magically animated doll" which, aside from the joints, could look fairly human and they also fall under the "automaton" category.
Hmmmmmmm Golem girl who maybe stays in castle to help train your female companions with a rock hard appendage? Sounds cool to ME :P
DeleteA golem girl who looks like 2B (or at least dresses like 2B) and has a behavior similar to hers... Considering there hasn't yet been any golem girl in the series, I'm pretty sure it'd definitely add some nice diversity to the game. :-)
DeleteGreat, now I'll be running around with low HP all the time. (._. )
ReplyDeleteTo cope with that, I'm requesting an anti-healing potion so that I don't always have to wait so long to see those, considering I'm a bit overleveled. (ツ)
One thing that bothers me though: Are you sure the "emberesment state" is consistant with all party members capable of fighting? I'd assume some of 'em would have built up a "natural immunity" by now. (>v•)
Maybe depending on what you do with the girls the embarrassment factor affects them less. So if you have more sex with them or do more to pimp them out then they get less embarrassed
DeleteI always assumed one of the alternate costumes unlockable for each female character would just be "naked" either way so... (ツ)
DeleteWhy would you assume that? You don't assume they'll have a "naked" outfit. That's a law of physics. Of course they will have a naked outfit. Never assume. Always EXPECT :)
DeleteBut "assume" has more "ass" in it than "expect". (._. )
DeleteBut point taken I'll try to whip my expectation into shape so they'll keep abreast with yours. (ツ)
Mhm, more thorn clothes to the god of thorn clothes! +__+
ReplyDeleteHow can you say it's not fancy while everything you implement in the game is fancy enough to be considered fancy? >_<
Just a thought - how about making thorn clothes gradation? Like, below 70%hp - some minor scratches, below 40%hp - nipples are shown, and maybe below 10%hp - a girl still have her hat on? ^__^
Hmmmmm can fancy pants truly be fancy if you no longer have pants? :P
DeleteThis news sounds amazing cannot wait for this new combat feature xD
ReplyDeleteAlso seriously hope we get see some more scenes with Devon fucking Masquerade/Ra'tiki in the upcoming updates :D or maybe even Osira
(ESPECIALLY if we can get a cumbelly in the scene xD)
Gabe taking an actual break? I shall believe it when I see it. On the topic of 'embarrassment' it sounds like something that will need careful balancing. Or you could just have a button which disables the penalty which unlocks as a reward for completing the (current) storyline. It would also be great if the clothing damage applies to our glorious hero as well for those whose tastes swing that way.
ReplyDelete"Make their clothing fall off as they take damage! So they'll fight twice as hard to cover up themselves!" - Sharty
ReplyDelete"I'll cut you if you do that" - Yuela
30+ hours of story and gameplay later, NG+ it turns out the strongest equipment in the game was exactly the ones with those designs, because the stat boost from the clothing/hp loss was bigger than anything else in the game. Fun times...
Awesome so like Senran Kagura? SWEET I loved that feature and think it will work well with the feeling of this game. :P

ReplyDeleteInteresting idea, I hope it will be a privilege for the female cast only, hehe.
ReplyDelete>> they'll get a negative "embarrassed"
ReplyDeleteThis somehow contradicts personality of every single female character in the series)
okay, since i heard you dont mind people using your characters for other projects, i have a question for you.
ReplyDeleteyou three mascot characters, Opala, Osira and Farah, much is said about them throughout the games, and much of their backstory is explored. but there is one set of details that are never mentioned, their measurements.
you never specify their exact sizes, like how tall are they? exactly how big ARE Farah's boobs? things like that.
other than their ages and their personal history with each other, there is very little information about them.
as in very little PERSONAL information. backstory is good, in fact it is something i require in order to enjoy a game, but while these details may seem insignificant, they themselves are important.
i ask because i am a fanfiction writer, and would like to use Farah and her two daughters in my fic. but i need more information for their character profiles.
because the fic takes place in the Naruto universe, Egypt doesn't exist, so i have had to tweak their details a little. their measurements are on of the few details i lack.
so if you could please get back to me when you can. my Penname on Fanfiction is:
"Noctus Of The Thousand Blades"
that is generally where you can find me. would leave my email, but then everyone could see it, and id rather not get spammed or hacked by some joker who happens to stumble across this post by accident.
again, if you could get back to me when you can, i would much appreciate it.
