Hello everyone!
Newlife 0.6.11 has been released.
Early-access Patrons can find it in the creations section here. The changelog is below.
The previous version is now public. You can download it using the links on the right-hand side of the blog. The public version's changelog is here.
As usual, saved files & templates from older versions probably won't work with newer ones.
For
new players - just use one of the links to the right to get a zipfile
containing Newlife. Once unzipped, you'll see a folder containing .jar
and .exe files. Either one of these will run the game.
For
either version you'll need to have Java installed. A lot of programs
use Java so you might well already have it. If the jar shows up as an
unrecognised file type, then you probably don't. In that case you can
get it from http://www.java.com/.
The
exe should tell you if you don't have the right version on your
computer, but you'll still need to install java to run the game.
There's a guide for new players here which includes some troubleshooting tips for installation & downloading.
This version improves the PC's interactions with the office rival, giving the player opportunities to get the upper hand.
I sitll have more ideas for the rival, but she has a lot of content now so I don't know if people want more or they'd rather I move onto other things. For the next release at least I'll be working on a more general office event where the rival may feature but she won't be the central focus.
Major changes & additions:
Added a new scene that allows the PC to plot revenge on her office rival.
Added a new scene where a seductive office rival attempts to further her career in a way the PC may be able to exploit.
Added a short new scene where the office rival can disrupt office-politics.
Minor changes:
The spitroast scene will no longer do NPC actions on turns where one of the men is having an orgasm.
Improved spacing for spitroast orgasm actions.
Lowlives can now start a threesome during the innocent-befriending route.
Updated the “Freeze in panic” path with the lowlives to potentially lead to sex depending on the PC's traits.
Following a suggestion by Brobort, the threesome-request action is now moved to the “important talk” section if the PC hasn't previously had a threesome with that particular man.
The text when transitioning to a threesome at home now varies on style, with humiliating, using and rough getting alternative descriptions.
Added some pregnancy musings in some situations when the husband caresses the PC's breasts during a wedding-consummation. This was based on a suggestion from Saur.
Following a PM on patreon, relaxed the conditions to accidentally walk into the men's changing room at the gym. The request was to add a new trait to enable it for female-start characters, but instead I've decided to unlock it for any forgetful character who is not also perceptive. Non-forgetful gender-bent characters can still access the scene at low femininity, although perceptive will still prevent them from making the mistake.
Reworked how the party-girl-impregnation-dare contest worked as the logic had some major issues. The player will now usually win if she challenges the party-girl to one of the more daring dares as soon as possible. Cunning removes the small chance of failure in this situation. However, a player who dawdles by challenging multiple less-intense dares will lose the contest regardless of traits.
Made some small rewrites of the party-girl befriending intro so that she isn't described as hungover when pregnant. Thanks to JJRider for reporting this.
Changes for user-submitted content:
Updated the Velocity config to allow macros to replace currently-defined ones.
Bugfixes:
Fixes to text issues. Thanks to Sync, Hubswing, AnarChYsT, Wakisha and dotSEA for reporting some of these.
Fixed a bug reported by Vandana.Ghost where your boyfriend could consider it cheating for you to have sex with another man during a threesome that he took part in.
Fixed a bug where the action to request a threesome wasn't checking for the partner having had an orgasm already.
Fixed a bug reported by Lashon Tov where your date could invite a copy of himself over to have a threesome with you.
Fixed a bug reported by JJRider where the game wasn't checking for NPC pregnancy when deciding whether the woman you catch your partner cheating with is drunk.
Fixed an issue reported by Elseone where talking to the cooking instructor was not updating relationship levels.
Will there ever be lesbian content? Like dating women? Sex with women?
ReplyDeleteFull lesbian content, eventually, once it gets voted in. There's smaller individual bits and pieces in the game as is, but not in a joined-up way that supports romance.
DeleteDo you think you'll eventually add an endless mode?
ReplyDeleteThere's effectively one already. Unlock the customisation screen (by completing a game) and you'll get the option to set the game length. Increasing it to a large value like, say, 5200 weeks will essentially get you an endless game.
DeleteOh, I didn't know that! I'll definitely have fun with this.
Deletewhat traits are needed to unlock the "Freeze in panic" sex scene?
ReplyDeleteIt's in the befriend path with the lowlives at the canal. First you need to have the freeze option which is available if you're shy and block-rough is not set.
DeleteThen you just choose to stay frozen. The sex transition is available after a few actions if your character has enough compatibility with what the lowlives are doing.
Having one of likes-rough and low-self-esteem counts to this and you only need one additional source of bonus points. This can be from one of the sensitivity traits. There's also the possibility to gain or lose points based on the lowlife's size if you have the likes-big trait.
