April Bonus Hours

Given the large number of bonus hours (thanks - you're awesome!), we've divvied up the bonus hours between Wahn, Blue Bishop and myself, and we'll all be tackling different stuff.  EDIT: Wahn will be basing his portion of the bonus hours on the results of previous poll, doing work on some of the runners-up that didn't quite make it.  Blue Bishop's will be doing a special project to cover those freebee hours coming from the ad revenue and the additional time from Multiplayer.  As for myself, I'm throwing it out to you guys to again give suggestions on where you'd like to see me put the 6 hours I'll be covering.

I want to confine it to improvements and additions to existing content in the game, so no new critters or NPCs this time please.  Do you want new sex scenes for someone?  Updated player victory/loss for a critter?  Better endings for someone or something?  More work done on something that's been awaiting completion for a while?  An improvement or expansion on an existing mechanic?  A new feat?  An alt-combat ability for a critter?  Let me know which NPC/critter/improvement you'd like and I'll pick some stuff from the list to do between my current projects.

Mild Adjustment

A: Inventory is now two columns. B: If you donate 30 or more your account will be flagged as instant access for +1 month per 15 after the first. So 45 is 3 months. 30 is 2 months. This is in addition to all other benefits, such as points towards hours from the writers.

New Artwork

Hi everyone, here's Wahn with another few of the artwork pieces I'm using my writing commission money for...

Let's start with Valerie, the sphinx in the museum, drawn by the amazing Sususmiles of FurAffinity:

Then here's Hayato, the red oni. This one was done by the talented Darian821 on Y-Gallery:

And finally, on to Brutus and David, expertly drawn by Lay on Y-Gallery:

 

Bonus Hour Record

The numbers are in! We have 15 bonus hours due to writer-for-hire payments. 2 hours due to multiplayer stretch goal. And! 5 more hours due to ad revenue! This adds up to a record shattering 22 bonus hours! This is far too much to hurl at any one of our writer for hires, so we'll be chatting amongst ourselves to figure out who takes what of this. The writer-for-hire hours are likely to go mostly to Stripes and Wahn, since they got most of those hours and they are't additionally paid time. The multiplayer and ad time IS paid time, meaning whoever does them is getting another cut from me directly. Stay tuned for further details. This month promises to be full of content, and a huge thank you to each and every one of you for helping us get to this point.

Dragonpalooza 2: First Baude Part II

Alas, my twisted little imps, Blue Bishop returns!

I surmise that even those with the dullest of observational skills will be keen to my inclination for biting off more than I can chew, and the ultimate result of such over-ambition being the ponderous nature of this vaunted update. But fear not, I have the second part of the planned content, along with a little extra to compensate for the delay!

For this update, we'll be seeing an update to the Feral Sea Dragon/ess. Let us commence!

• Player Loss:
• Both the Feral Sea Dragon and Feral Sea Dragoness have received a facelift to all their existing content... Not by much, though! At least, for the Dragon. There's a certain irony in how my debut overhaul requires the least amount of improvement (And I'm certain that has nothing to do with the fact that Stripes helped me with it, way back when).
• The Dragoness, however, did require a bit more work. Submissive FSD players in particular will find her interactions with you to be more robust (For example, she'll now engage with submissive females).
• The rules and mechanics for this sort of interaction with the Dragoness, as well as the long term effects, have been tweaked to be consistent with other mechanics suggested in the player victory section.
• Both now have a Vore-Based Bound State. The male will rarely do it at Normal, with the female requiring More.
• There's been some fixes to infection mechanics for the pair. They're meant to infect you, not only with the opposite gender (Barring any locks), but with the opposite strain, which have minor cosmetic differences. One wasn't doing this and the other had some incorrect criteria for it to activate, among other things.

• Player Victory:
• Both encounters now have a robust selection of player victory scenes available. The number should be on par with the Wyvern and, similarly, can be accessed regardless of libido with Dominant.
• While the Dragoness is innately submissive (And still runs the risk of forcing male/herm FSD players to mount her if they're not careful), her male counterpart isn't so receptive to the notion. As you can imagine, with a little work, you can change his mind on the matter...
  
• Endings:
• The Succumb Endings have been greatly expanded, up to a total of Eight outcomes, based on which of the two you're stuck with and your interactions with them. The system for determining what gender you'll succumb to has been made to be much the same to the Yamato dragon pair; the choice is made by which one you lose to (or beat and have sex with) the most. 
• If you're ever confused by which one you're stuck with, a line of text will telegraph any time you make a shift, if you have the FSD strain.
• The Survive Endings, however, received the opposite effect. The previous endings were the only remaining content from their original incarnation, and suffered from being convoluted, with arbitrary checks, that conflicted with the restrictions on what a survive ending can entail. It has since been simplified into a single one with more straightforward checks.

Oh, but that's not all! To compensate for the delay, I added a little something extra to the mix!

• Doran:
• The cunt length requirement for Doran to ride you has been lowered to 5, down from 8. There was a bit of a double standard going on where he'd be able to anally mount players as small as a scale of 2, but was unable to mount players vaginally with endowments proportionate to even a scale of 3. I have since resolved this error and now ladies should be able to have fun with the dragon right from the get-go
• Doran has received an additional sex scene, available exclusively in Neutral demeanour. It's perfectly reasonable to not pick a side with the dragon, but the more extreme incarnations of said sides exist as rewards for that choice, something staying on the fence doesn't provide. This should suffice as a small bonus to those players.

 
And that's it for now. Hopefully this will sate your hunger until I finish the final part of this oversized overhaul. If I messed anything up, please let me know in the comments section or on the forums.

If you're not sure when you'll receive the content, this update was sent May 1st. Enjoy!

Keep on rotating!

We hit another 100 block, so another rotation has been done, shoving things ahead a day as of right now. Also! Multiplayer hit a record high this month(And it's not even over) of over 3200 dollars, and I set the $3200 stretch goal to be 2 hours towards you guys here since you're helping hit this, which means 2 more bonus hours for this month, which I will be paying for. Thanks for the support and keeping Flexible humming with updates!
