Perfect Home [v.1.10.2]: Corruption is Imp-lied
🕑 Added 2024-07-01 15:58:10 +0000 UTCMeowdy, folks! I've really had my paws full getting ready for Anthrocon this year, and even after AC, I'll have a LOT to take care of/move around on the IRL side of things... to say nothing of how prepping for the visual novel, Perfect Girlfriend, and other games/projects has kept me tangled up. I'm spinning a lot of plates! But I feel comfortable with the sheer amount of work I've managed to get done in advance, giving me ample buffer with which to keep 'em spinning, and this update isn't lacking at all in spite of how busy I've been! I'm really happy with how it turned out! It's a good first start for what I want to do with corruption as a mechanic, while also making the game more or less fully playable if you're only into girls!
I still have more I want to do with rituals, demon summoning, and corruption-- I've already begun work on a hellhound you can conjure up and add to the estate on a temporary basis, just as you can with the imp cluster! But I just don't quite have the time to cram everything in for this update. Writing bad ends is pretty time-consuming! I should be able to polish everything up to be released before the year's over, though! In the mean time, corruption now affects a few worship-related encounters/scenes and alters how your servants speak to you, and when it becomes too much, you can reduce it with a simple purification in your ritual room!
I've also added in a new dungeon. I haven't been able to play with dungeons very much since I first introduced them a few years ago, and given I was always planning to make an expedition for imps, now seems like the best time for it: hot off the heels of a demon summoning update! I still have to add in the second 1-Star dungeon, featuring mice, but until then, I'm pleased to show y'all the first of the 2-Stars! The new dungeon is slightly longer, and it introduces new traps, harder rooms/challenges, fewer chances to regain hearts at a campfire... I have a few more ideas for dungeon encounters, and I really like the idea of adding in special actions/areas you can check out within dungeons, too, like an especially powerful altar you can interact with for special worship-related content as just one example...
You can unlock it by reading the Demonomicon by using Banned Books a few times. It comes with a failure state with a bunch of different variations/scenes, which also has the potential of leading into a bad end! I'm really eager to hear how everyone enjoys it...
Lastly, in terms of the major content I'm releasing with this update, I've added in the first half of Julian's female content! He still starts as a male exclusively, but his gender can now be swapped back and forth at your discretion using a Gender TF Potion after he's been successfully captured.
That's about it for now... except for one final exciting announcement: the results of the poll for the next rival have been tallied, and Flores, the vampiric bat from the ruins, will be the next creature to get their claws on Citrine! I can't wait to work on BOTH rivals, especially since Mace's methods are some of my personal favorites, but I've been hungry to add this bat in for a while now, especially with all the interest they've gotten from fans!
Releasing a new character has become a much bigger undertaking than it was back when I first started the project. I mentioned this before, but going forward, adding in new characters is going to take much more time-- as such, I'm going to need at least two months to release the first part of Flores' content, likely with an extra update following it for anything I might have missed.
But don't fret! I'm still planning on releasing updates in the meantime, both to Perfect Home and to Perfect Girlfriend! They'll likely just be smaller than usual, to tide you over until the big stuff finally drops. I also intend to release my visual novel, Catboy In The Dungeon, some time over the next few months now that I've received the majority of the assets I need for it. I'll be selling it on itchio, but I'll be giving witch-tier donors access keys to do with as they please!
Okay, NOW that's it. I've gotta go get ready for Anthrocon. If you end up seeing me around out there, feel free to meow at me for stickers and such, and as always, thank you so much for your support! We've gotten really close to the half-way mark of my next big milestone of 3k monthly, which is an amount that will honestly change my life in a way I didn't think possible. So thank you! Seriously. π
PATCH NOTES:
β’ Added in a new dungeon: the Imp Lair, which is unlocked by reading the Demonomicon a third time.
β’ A bad end has been included for the imp lair! Failing to escape increases your corruption more and more until you no longer desire to try.
β’ You can now lower corruption at your altar with a new purification ritual, learned via reading the Demonomicon!
β’ There are now variant scenes for both achieving divinity and receiving tribute when your Corruption stat is 5 or higher.
β’ Generic servants now have different dialogue depending on your Corruption stat.
β’ You can now play with the imp cluster in the estate, introducing two new scenes!
β’ Two new scenes have been introduced featuring the cleric after reaching 5+ corruption.
β’ Progress has been made on Julian's female variants! He can now be transformed from male to female and back again. Her female content only extends as far as after her capture at the moment.
β’ When you summon the imp horde, they can be found fluttering about in the estate!

How do you actually use the debug mode? I dunno how to access it.
