Rework of Training Zone, update coming soon and something important


Hello, I have improved the training area, what do you think?

I think I'll be able to release the new update next week, so stay tuned! I'm very happy with the result I'm getting with The Ark, I think you'll like it.

I've also created a lobby where you can interact with the crew, like in previous updates.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also have something important to tell you, starting with the next update the monetization of the game will change. I have been investing a lot of money and a lot of time in the project, so unfortunately I need some benefit to help me maintain my expenses. So now there will be two options:

  • For people who are not willing to spend money: Download a demo of the game that will have limited features. This demo will not be updated as often as the paid option and will always be incomplete.
  • For people willing to spend some money: Buy the game for a low price, practically symbolic, to access the game in its complete and current version. In this case it is preferable to do it through Patreon, since you will get more advantages and it helps me to analyze the people interested in the project.

love the training area!, but have a few questions about it.

1) "I've also created a lobby where you can interact with the crew" does this mean that the crew will not be inhabited with crew?

2) the name training area can imply a few things, like will this be an rpg, will you be "training" people in the space ship sexually, or take  a completely different approach and have it just be a regular room with unique sex scenes to said room on equipment and what not, or none of these and something different entirely, I would love to now 



but aww man, couldn't you just do people who don't pay are always an a week or an update behind?, i heavy dislike the demo view and know many games that thrive just having the public update only a few days later, i 110% understand that devs need to make money, but i sucks that people like myself who don't have anything to spare, cant see the whole game ever, i can under stand delaying the update for x amount of time for people who don't pay, but giving patrons the update early, i think that is 100% reasonable. the

will have limited features

 and will always be incomplete.

bugs me the most as I fear I will never see the full game, in the end I'm only one voice, but i will use my voice to maybe hopefully help you reconsider. I see a lot of potential in this game and love to see all the work you put in, and I wish to follow you along is this games development, even if you go with the payment method I disagree with

Thank you!

1) In the future updates the crew will be doing his tasks in the Ark. They will be continuously moving between zones when they finish their work, I want that the Ark to feel alive.

2) Training area is focused on practicing combat.  The area simulates an alien planet.  I have other areas focused on sex and other themes in mind, but I wanted to develop the basis of the combat system.

It's a decision I've been considering for months.  I feel bad that there are people who can't try everything, but with the current monetization model I don't get any benefit.  People are not interested in paying if they can get the product for free.  I think that with this update the game will improve a lot, I'm getting results that are exceeding my expectations.  Until now I was not entirely satisfied with what the game offered, so I did not want to put that payment barrier.  I feel sorry for you and for the people who are not willing to pay, I will try to make the free version have as much content as possible without being unfair to the people who pay.

nice! i have a few examples of other big games that work with my method, but i just get uneasy around the word "demo" when it comes to these game theres also shout outs, and custom art if you get reacuring charecters or envirements

another thing you can do is give polls in patron for what to work on next, or give them a greater say.

I found a leaked compleated image of the arc lol

hahaha, so you are the impostor 😥 

for real though, you could take inspiration from other space games like among us, halo etc. for map design and the kind of maps, becuse if i remember correctly its only the main room and the training room, you cant have any type of ship with out a med bay, and a spaceship needs engines and from for other planets things like halo or star wars would be cool places to start
