Redoing Humiliation

I didn't want to start changing this until after the big release as it's a few days' work but as I started improving the monster detection code for other reasons it made too much sense to make sure this was integrated. The release should still make it out within a couple of weeks I hope.

Humiliation, as it currently exists, makes sense from an objective viewpoint since essentially everything in the game is a humiliating experience. However I'm much more interested in it actually being a meaningful gameplay stat to be managed by the player.

So, humiliation and dignity is going to be redefined as (mostly) humiliating things the player consents to / doesn't resist / does of their own volition.

In summary, these are the major things that cause humiliation:

* submitting instead of resisting during sex
* kneeling in front of, and displacing / removing underwear in front of, unfriendly NPCs
* when being noticed by an intelligent monster (essentially the ones you can speak to), if any of the following are true:
** Cum on face
** Crotch or breasts (once A cup or larger) exposed
** Wearing clothing too slutty for your current humiliation level
* voluntarily urinating on the floor of a room or into non-diaper underwear
* drinking urine (you'll generally be given the option of drinking it which hits humiliation or keeping your mouth shut, which will make it get on your clothing, lowering its modifiers)
* things that are unlikely to make it into release 6, including "presenting" a particular orifice, and voluntarily going for a blowjob to spare your lower holes.
* a couple of non-consensual situations are likely to still cause humiliation, e.g. shameful orgasms and taunting when floating uncontrollably from inflation

Humiliation will now slightly lower intelligence as it increases, instead of bimbo. The majority of the flavour will describe how the humiliation affects you less and less as your ego / dignity is stripped from you.  Humiliation will decay slightly faster than before.

However if you hit max humiliation, you become "broken". Humiliation can no longer decay, the intelligence penalty is permanent, and a fixed amount gets permanently added to your bimbo score.  You now are aroused by humiliation; and so further acts that would increase humiliation increase your arousal instead.

    1. Believe me when I say I've been spending a huge proportion of my spare time working on this. I'm getting neck ache on coaches and sacrificing getting to Diamond in LoL SoloQ for you guys.

    2. Yeah, we all would have liked a sooner release, but look at all the quality upgrades being done. The updated codes and game mechanics. Going to make future updates easier (I assume) and make for a smoother and more enjoyable run when it does come out.

      Also, take care of your neck. You've only got the one.

    3. Sounds like almost all the mechanics have gotten major work done along with the piles of added content. I sincerely hope everything is as amazing as it sounds, and that the bugs and unbalances aren't totally crippling on release.

    4. Aika - you rock. Don't know much about coding, but I have had friends who've written novels, and often it's either "Good" or "Soon." I for one am thrilled you chose "Good."

      Thank you for all your great work!

      Love,
      Cindy

    5. The difference between plat and diamond placing is like 1.4%. Pretty sure you'll live. :D

  3. Look if we can accept steam time, we can accept the amount of time it will take Aika to get the release out. Either way, we know it's going to be good.

    1. I don't mind waiting, as long as we get a fair idea of when it's coming out -- or if a delay occurs. "Probably within a couple of weeks" is fine with me, and any delays will probably be okay too.

      But screw Valve time, if that's what you're referring to.

    2. noone accepts valve time, we just have no way of doing anything about it.

  4. I don't give a fuck about any delays because this stuff is awesome.
    This is everything I've wished for in a game and then some. It's like Aika is the child of bimbo santa and sissy jesus or something.

    >future releases letting you wiggle your buttocks enticingly / glomp anything with a cock and go full mouthslut
    Ok I planned to wait until release to donate but fuck that. This deserves instant gratification.

  6. Take as long as you need! Bottom line is were all playing this for free and I sure know I appreciate all of your hard work :D

  7. Will the code for squirting a dildo inside yourself be in this release? I'm guessing that counts as a voluntary humiliation act.

  8. Aww man, here I was hoping for a release during my week off...oh well all the updates and content sound amazing Aika! Thank you so much for all your hard work so far :)

  9. Will drinking from squirting dildo or baby bottle increase humiliaton if you are seen by someone? Maybe only in the prudest level?

    I suppose that wearing humiliating non-slutty clothes, like diapers, will increase humiliation too, right?

    Can't wait for release. Thanks, Aika!

  10. Beware the feature creep! Before you know it, the entire code for the game might get rewritten before the next release. ;)
