Release v0.41

Bug fixes:

  • Changing breast size now no longer causes lactation to vanish.
  • Players with multiple save slots now have the option to delete games.
  • Put a note on the infestation tome that it’s incomplete.
  • Hermaphrodite tome no longer offers you genitalia that you already have.

Next release:

  • Lair upgrades.

Release v0.40

This one’s mostly just bug fixes for account-related issues that are causing people grief:

  • Your e-mail address is now case insensitive. Log in with any capitalisation you like, it doesn’t matter. E-mail me (jack@youcanguess.com) if you see any account related weirdness as a result of this.
  • Activation links now work even if you accidentally leave the ‘~’ off the end.
  • Oh, I’ve pushed lair invasions slightly later into the game so people don’t get crushed before they can build up. I’m planning to revise how the invasions actually work later on when things are less hectic.
  • Further server performance tweaks.

Next update:

  • Fix vanishing lactating nipples.
  • Fix tome of hermaphrodites offering you genitalia that you already have.

It’s on!

I’m really excited to announce that the Fleshcult crowdfunding campaign is open. This is the moment of truth: it’s where I find out how many of you folks want to play the game and how badly. I could elaborate on the prototype a lot, but it all hinges on how long I can afford to work on it full time, so the outcome of this drive determines not just whether it’ll be completed, but also how rich, varied and polished I can make it.

I’m running the campaign on OffBeatr.com. It’s like KickStarter, but porn focused. Every OffBeatr project has to accrue a certain number of votes before it can collect pledged donations (the clock doesn’t start ticking until voting ends). So, if you’d like to help, go vote!

Release v0.39

Just a handful of minor fixes this time.

Fixes:

  • Trial accounts are now limited by the number of game turns rather than a time limit.
  • Updated list of testers in credits.
  • Fixed a nasty bug in browser version detection.

Release v0.38

Fixes:

  • Fixed lots of layout problems at low screen resolutions. Should be playable on phones now.
  • Some fixes for race conditions that cropped up when I pointed the blitz.io load tester at the server.
  • Better e-mail address validation.

Stress Test Open!

For the week of 3 December only:

I need to see how Fleshcult copes under load, so I’m doing a little public beta ahead of the actual public release/crowdfunding launch. Fleshcult is wide-open to you and your friends, so get in there and deflower it!

Play!

Release v0.35

The new release has background paintings, though they’re not final yet. I also set up a CDN, so hopefully the images should download nice and fast.

Progress will be slow for a wee bit while I put together my crowdfunding pitch.

Tweaks:

  • Nerfed lust bonus. Now it only affects the body part that it’s on.
  • Waxed poetic about breasts.
  • The title page now checks for browsers that are too old and scolds accordingly.

Release v0.30

This release was mostly internal changes so that when I open the site to the public, the server’s database and cache won’t melt down. I also added a crude monitoring system to know when the server is giving people errors.

Other tweaks:

  • Beast mutations now occur by chance, rather than occurring once per upgrade.
  • Added/changed beast mutations so that there should always be a couple of options that aren’t completely grotesque.

Release v0.25

Changes:

  • Split minion transformations into a new ‘Laboratory’ screen.
  • Fixed a few bugs where caches downstream from my server could serve stale pages.
  • Halved the frequency that you can pick up tomes.
  • A handful more transformations relating to horns and tails.

Release v0.20

Features:

  • Tomes have been added. Tomes unlock new transformations. Because the player picks which tomes they want, I don’t have to show them absolutely everything in the shapeshifting screen, which should keep things sane as I add more and more variety. This release doesn’t add any new transformations though.

Bugfixes:

  • If meters are too wide for the screen, display a scrollbar instead of freaking out.
  • Fix crash penetrating very loose orifices.
