Playtests? What are those? 0.33 releases.

Yeah so, it turns out I'm kind of burnt out on writing content. BUT I DID IT ANYWAY SO FUCK YOU! Also turns out studying, making a game, and trying to play Starcraft don't mesh too well together. Something about all of my time being taken up. Oh, and play in roleplaying games. That one also takes up time. Like that dick who I run VtM for. But ranting aside, Shield High 0.33 is now being released as originally intended, and the next week will be an ERO FREE UPDATE. Mostly so I can do some writing without having to think of new ways for girls to fuck. That shit is HARD.

Anyway, here's the link: http://www.mediafire.com/?wngo1odi4856xyw

And a quick reminder I have an IRC channel at #PuddingGames on Rizon. Once I get over the initial adjustment of starting up study, and dealing with womenfolk and their indecisive ways I'll be finally looking into branching out Shield High, so stay tuned for that, and come visit in the IRC to get some actual, y'know, insight, into what the hell I'm doing.

Hope you guys enjoy, and I look forward to chatting with you maybe.

See? I told you there'd be news!

And I wasn't lying! That's rather surprising. Okay so, the long and short of it is I've finally gotten around to moving into a house with good internet. This means I can remain connected 24/7 and be almost constantly available except for when sleeping or doing other human things. What does this mean for Pudding Games? I'll tell you what it DOESN'T mean. It doesn't mean your getting super fast Shield High updates. I'm actually a bit burnt out on the porn writing honestly, but I'm sticking at it, and once I get over this little hump I'll be back to my usual pace. No, what it does mean is that I've gotten around to actually commandeering an IRC channel for use of finding me and telling me about every stupid little mistake I've made, or asking me questions about the story, or pestering me to include a request for free, or whatever it is you like to do.

Anyway, channel details are as follows, it's on the Rizon server #PuddingGames, hope to see you guys there. And now for the second part of that news. With the move means I'm sitting on a hotspot for connection speed, which means me streaming isn't all that impossible now. I haven't looked into that yet though cause it's late and I want to pass out but I can't because I have annoying girl problems to solve, but I plan to do so tomorrow, so the news in regards to that will be posted here when I've got it all worked out. Also this new set up means more privacy for me, and being more in touch with the fans means I might be able to make a second game which you guys want to see. Not sure, we'll see what happens eh?

So hit me up in that channel, hope to see you guys and actually get some conversation going!

Dark Days for Shield High: 0.321 released.

WOAH WOAH WOAH WHAT? 0.321? That can't be right! Wasn't this update meant to be 0.33? Yes. It was. But you see, I had a VERY busy weekend. The only convention I go to all year was on this weekend, so in between that, playing starcraft, playing LoL, recovering from that, and dealing with a few personal issues, I didn't have time to include all the promised features of 0.33. So I compromised, and released 0.321 instead. 0.321 basically makes Stacy-related slavery work, so if you're not super interested in that content, I'd just say give this update a miss. Which is shocking for me, because I'm narcissistic and obsess over my downloads, but for once I can admit I haven't done enough for it to be worth it. Now, NEXT week on the other hand, I've only got some moving to do, which is nothing, so expect a decent sized update, the results of being Andriana's slave, a bit more polish, and some more dialogue options to help bring the game to life even more.

Anyway, download link, in case you want it: http://www.mediafire.com/?6ok3p8fova4c33g

And check back on sayyyy friday-saturday my time, as I have some news about THE FUTURE of Pudding Games. It's not a huge deal, but it's a step up.

Slavery: It has features now. 0.32 released

So yeah, I put together 0.32 this week, all full of slave-y goodness. Now you can be owned by Karen and have actual slave-things happen to you. Stacy and Andriana as Mistresses is planned for 0.33. There's not a lot going on here, but I had to do a lot of re-programming for it to make all the systems work. Stacy and Andriana will be faster to produce. Also I did a lot of cleaning. So characters now move around when they should. No more Andriana enslaving Melanie and then spending the rest of time in the centre of the schoolyard. Also, NEW CLASSROOMS! And the school's a bit easier to navigate class to class.

As always, I hope you enjoy, as I really have nothing more to add.

That time of the update schedule.

This happens every month I'm sure. I sit down to write the update, and I stare at the content blankly not sure what to write. This is what happens when I'm not doing a plot. This is why so many features are missing. Because I honestly do not know what to write about in half of them. So what happens when I reach that time of the update schedule? The bit before I hint at the next plot, but after I've done all the work on the one before? Well, I polish, that's what. Which is what I'm doing this week. There's a bit of content, sure, sometimes I get caught by a mood and write something. I'd like to see all of being enslaved by Karen done this week. But most of it's minor stuff, fixing little errors, or just adding depth. Like how the centre of the schoolyard is now cleaned up post-fight every week. Or how a few Joyce bugs have been fixed. It's small things, but I think they make Shield High an over-all nicer game to play. Text-games have the easiest to spot problems, and so fixing them up should be a high priority. Sadly it's not, because I hate trouble shooting. But boredom does strange things.

Anyway, that's my little bit of news on 0.32. My apologies it won't have the content it should, I'm trying to get motivated to include a bunch more stuff, so we'll see what happens.

Underwhelming release: Shield High 0.31 released

And, as always, it's not a huge change from Shield High 0.3. It does however contain an abnormally high number of bug fixes though, as one of my testers complained a lot, and I did some testing of my own, which lead to even more bug fixing. Also I didn't get around to accomplishing everything I set out to do. Writing lesbian sex all week is haaaard, so all I managed was the ending of Stacy's fight, and a re-do of the ending of the fight with Karen, so it's more than just a teaser.

Download link is here: http://www.mediafire.com/?w12bu63kbsd2jjj

First on the agenda for next week is patching up the whole enslaved thing, so that it starts to have some features. Also some more bug fixing. If I get time I'll do some more dialogue options too. We're in the boring cleaning phase where I make things a LOT more stable, and don't do anything of serious merit. Oh well, these things take time I suppose.

Hope you all enjoy playing, and are looking forward to next week's release.

Pudding Earl.
