Deviant Discoveries - New Version 0.31 by Jan The Spider
https://k2s.cc/file/c696834abeb4a
Language: English
Description:
You play a scientist/professor which has invented ways to alter the human body.
He sets out to test it on students at the school he currently works in, corrupting them in the process.
V 0.31.0 Changelog:
Vaasref implemented an awesome new smartphone system which fundamentally changes how the phone is used in the game. He'll explain that better a little further down in his part of the post.
So there are 48 new pictures in this update. Each of them a sort of mini scene, set to happen in between training the girls or when they reach certain milestones.
Those scenes are at this time limited to all the girls except Lola, Luna & Francesca.
Playthrough should be pretty straightforward since the girls text you at certain times, but be sure to check the envelope after scenes or certain events as it will sometime allow for the player to send texts to the girls as well.
You might also have noticed that since we did the stripclub update I've been rendering the artwork at higher resolutions. You can expect that to be the new standard going forward.
I really hope you guys have fun with this and do please let me know if you run into any problems.
The same goes for if you have any suggestions or feedback on this update or the game in general.
So please enjoy.
-Jan.
Note from Vaasref
Due to a sizable amount of complains about the "grindyness" of the game we looked into it.
In its current state the average number of time you need to train a girl to unlock a new scene is around 2. Then we asked ourselves from where that feeling of grind came from and how we could improve things.
We came to the conclusion that the issue was mainly due to two factors; the first being some imbalance on Chrystal's training, and second being the difficulty to know if an option is available.
Hence why in this version I made the unavailable options grayed out while still keeping them selectable to still be able to know what you need to train.
This feature will not be used everywhere and will mostly be used when it comes to girl training.
Apart from that change important for the gameplay yet light on the work, this version is mostly about the new SMS system and events.
This new system, built from scratch, is used to stage a good number of new events based around selfies and sexting. The events will trigger at various stages of the training of the girls, but be aware that they are completely optional.
And while it may not be the most image heavy update, it's well in the average while adding much more events.
That represents an unprecedented amount of work so far and hope it shows.
Since it was such an heavy update, I would really encourage you to give us feedback about the new features and content.
