Newlife 0.7.7

Hello everyone and happy new year!

 
Newlife 0.7.7 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.

Due to some forgetfulness on my part I don't have a public build of 0.7.6 to hand. Instead I'm putting the patreon one out there. This is mostly the same, except that you'll get a different start-screen message and some extra cheat options.

I think that old saves will probably be compatible with this version, but I haven't tested it so I can't say for sure.

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 release adds hypnosis content that was chosen by patrons as this year's "Prove Me Wrong" release.

The bugfix section of the changelog may be incomplete as I don't have all my notes from early in the month.

 

Major changes & additions:

• Added hypnosis scenes, in yml/vm format.

Minor changes:

• Various minor updates to sex scenes to support sex under hypnosis.

Changes for user-submitted content:

• Added isLesbianVirgin to player object in custom scenes.

• Added setStat method to gamedata object

• Added getAgeDesc method to NPC objects

• Added setOnPill method to player object

• GOOD_HYPNOTIST and EVIL_HYPNOTIST traits can be added to custom NPCs: these are the special NPCs used in the new scenes.
  

• Short and long action descriptions are now generated when an action is shown to the player instead of just once at the start of the scene. This means that variables which change mid-scene (such as arousal) can now be used in these sections.

Bugfixes:

• Fixes to text issues. Thanks to Zab for reporting some of these.

• Fixed an issue reported by Sync where the lesbian town date could choose the wrong route when the PC takes the lead.

• Fixed a bug where the PC is fantasizing about having sex with a different men but her fantasy was incorrectly using the body-type of the man she was actually being fucked by.

• ixed an omission reported by Albert44 where office-party sex with your rival was not increasing the "oral pleasure" stat.

• Fixed a bug where the value for "small" enjoy modifiers was only half what it should have been.

Enjoy the new version, and let me know if you find any bugs!

Newlife 0.7.6

 

Hello everyone!

 
Newlife 0.7.6 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.

I haven't specifically tested it, but I suspect that old saves will not be compatible with this version.

 

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/.

This release adds the lesbian town date.

 

Major changes & additions:

• The PC can now go on dates in town with other women.

• Added some new minidate events submitted by Lost Trouting. These “minievents” don't require the PC to have a boyfriend.

Minor changes:

• Minidates are now slightly more common when the PC is in a relationship, but less so when she's single.

• As requested by BereavedPoet, the PC can now yell at a man who's leaked videos of her online (via the “important talk” option at home).

• Added an alternative line in the blackjack makeout so innocent NPCs won't say they don't know what to do when you've already been intimate with them. Thanks to Sync for pointing this out!

• Added top/bra self-undressing actions to the lesbian makeout. Thanks to Sync for pointing out this omission!

Changes for user-submitted content:

• LESBIAN_TOWN_DATE is now a valid transition for custom scenes.

Bugfixes:

• Fixes to text issues. Thanks to OrangeJuice, TroupeDev and Ptera for reporting some of these.

• Added MAN_BUN to the documentation, thanks to Rigel for pointing out this omission.

• Fixed some issues with the conditions for the description of the character's outfit when dressing for a date. Most notably, a low-self-esteem toned PC will no longer worry that her legs look fat.

• Fixed an issue with the town date scene not updating relationship status.

Enjoy the new version, and let me know if you find any bugs!
