Brother/Sister, we're as confused as you are, but mostly we're confused that 12 months went by so quickly. Our initial hope was to release DommeBreaker by the end of this year. Good thing we never mentioned that... Anyway, this month you voted for information about our business model and release DLC. Well, we have some[b] good news that you may have already seen on the DommeBreaker store page: the base game will be free! [/b]"But what constitutes the base game? Especially considering you're telling us there will be DLC on release," I don't hear you ask, because this was written in advance. Allow us to clarify: [list] [*] The base game[b] will include everything we've shown so far involving Stacy, Hannah, Tomie, Jitsuko and Emily. [/b] [*] The base game will b[b]e a complete experience with a setup, middle and ending to the story. So far, every post has been about the base game. [/b] [*] Future Community posts featuring DLC content will be clearly labeled as such. [/list] Why did we choose to make the base game free? To get as many people as possible to try the game out. How do we plan to make money? Basically, we have a lot of ideas for self-contained bits of DLC focusing on various specific kinks and fetishes. However, not everybody will be into every type of DLC. We decided the best option was to try to make DLC self-contained, so that[b] players can get just the content they're interested in, without feeling like they need to go buy and play through content that doesn't appeal to them.[/b] Think of it as 'a la carte' smut. The base game is the free taste we hope will get you hooked and that will setup the characters/setting for DLC. So what's going to be the release DLC? [list] [*] [b]We'll have a digital artbook [/b]featuring not only the finished works, but also unused sketches, some notes and behind-the-scenes looks into some of the choices we made during development. [*] We'll release the first [b]self-contained bit of DLC featuring Shizuru from Femdom Lines.[/b] We won't get into details about her DLC yet, but it should come as no surprise that it'll be CBT themed. [/list] As for how exactly DLC will work content-wise, that's going to take an entire future Community post to explain, because we have various types of content in mind. For now, we wish you [b]a happy and sexy new year! [/b] Of course, let's not forget the Roadmap update for December: FINISHED: [list] [*] Richard's theme [*] Emily Victory Scenes 2+3 [*] Player upgrades design [*] Player abilities design (still needs late-game balancing) [*] Rewrites and script fixes for Emily Victory Scenes 2+3 and Tomie Combat 1 [*] Testing Tutorial and Emily 1 balance [/list] CURRENTLY WORKING ON: [list] [*] Main Menu theme [*] Tomie Combat art Stages 2+3 [*] Emily Combat Stages 2+3 balancing [*] Ending Sequence writing [/list] Oh, yeah. [url=https://twitter.com/zee_vital_games]The poll for next month![/url] That's right, it's a fake poll. We recently got the Tomie Stage 1 combat art and you need to see it. I didn't even discuss this with Zee. I'm literally deciding this as I write the Community post. We'll resume actual polls next month.
