[ Spanquest Part 2: Shining Road ]

[Bagool]

@transmiter: I'll be sure to check those probs out, and misprints are always important, so don't hold back. (Although the game breaking stuff is more of a priority.)

@Tontomanzz: I guess it isn't that clear, especially with only the argue option changing to tease in the fun menu, but each of the options are meant to be a sort of fun reaction. There would be no way for the player to tell this without exhausting all of the options, but each choice pulls from a different list of phrases. "Plead" is meant to be a fake sort of roleplay like reaction, "Struggle" is meant to be a play-fighting type of reaction, while cry is meant to be the sort of safeword option. Another difference is that you can break out of some punishments with struggle, but you can't break out of a fun spanking. Basically, struggle and cry both work as fail-safes for the player to end any scene when they want to at the cost of stat penalties or other consequences.

@bagool. Ah ok makes sense, yeah wasn't sure. If you're changing some of the menu markers (like tease) for a fun one, you could always mark cry with an indicator of what it is.
Or keep them the same word, but have a (T) "Plead (T) " to mark them all as tease version but keep cry the same as it isn't. As it's kind weird that plead changes to tease but struggle doesn't change to something (squirm? heh).
But probably once people have done it a couple of times it won't be needed. I noticed right away that the reactions were different as the text response has a totally different tone . Just have to remember which.

BTW, does struggle end it quicker? Seems to just make it worse (not that there's anything wrong with that :P). Or somehow breaking free doesn't apply yet to these two spankers. I do see cry ending it sooner at the cost of submission, but struggle seems harder if not longer, but with getting some dominance stats even though you got spanked.

One last issue that I've noticed:

Giving the Innkeeper a punishment spanking doesn't seem to work properly. The dialogue when it first starts out sounds right, but once the actual interface comes up, it seems like it's going into a fun spanking. The dialogue is the same as a fun spanking and her she gets happier as the spanking goes on. Once it finishes and the interface goes away, she speaks as if she was just given a punishment spanking (so I think I'm still technically passing the scene even though her emotional level was high after the spanking).

This is mainly because I have some more details I want to add to those extra punishments that take time to do, and if I do them all right now the first update will never come out. But that isn't to say that you won't see them on another character until then...

@MVegeta: Your first problem should hopefully be fixed with the normal text box showing. I don't think there is a way to automatically start the dialogue without doing major reorganizing, but since you're stuck in the room until you talk to her anyway it should be alright for now. I wanted to add some sort of roadblock to almost every character before you can spank/be spanked by them because it just felt too silly to walk up to a complete stranger and initialize that dialogue. In SQ2 it made some sense because you lived in a town with people you knew. The characters that have familiarity levels are the "main characters" of each town primarily, so for Alumin for example this would include Sabirah (priestess), Jumanah (treasure hunter), and Seth (son of elder). But there will be some special exceptions when I think they can work.

@Vividcolor: It seems like you're having a lot of problems, can I ask what version you're using? It will say so in the text file outside the game files but inside the .rar. I ask this because I just opened the game and tried the first few things from your list and they all worked fine. Some of those bugs I never heard of, and I can only guess that it was the result of a prior event messing with the switches/variables and causing subsequent events to F- up.

@Skull: I don't really know how to address the problem you're having. I just ran it In firefox as well and it ran fine, if not better than normal. I really think you're problem might just be how underpowered your computer is. I'm running a lot of extra features that most RPGmaker games wouldn't have, so that is the most likely cause.

EDIT
I'd like to add a link to a poll I made for two new implements I'm adding to the game: https://www.patreon.com/posts/poll-1-new-12248047

Hmm: Preliminary results so far (ver. 4.7.1, running not in browers but in computer 640 *480 mode cuz I like it nearly full screen):

1. Tried a run though as a total submissive. And one as a total Dom (cept for ONE spanking) As noticed by others, occasionally would 'remove' underwear after IT or a DIAPER had already been removed. Also always used everything in the chest to make sure stats changed -they did- when I 'gifted' it. And of course gave Ruby flowers at level 3 and Innkeeper her alcohol. By the way, got sort of stuck at level 4 for innkeeper, but in my run through as a sub Ruby got up to 15! And yet sometimes the dialogue from JUST AFTER I took her spanking for her would come up.
Other issues:
I've run into some of the stuff Vivadcolor did:
A. I have never been able to see what happens when the Inkeeper says to come up stairs with her for a spanking. And what I mean by that is I follow her up and go to the room (she's presumably mad enough to want to spank me then and here) and yet she asks what I want and starts a 'normal' request spanking process over again. So if you made special dialogue or scene for her (my behavior would be like -50 at this point, at least -40 if I recall..) I've never seen it for whatever reason. I can even leave the room with no penalty and she will appear downstairs, like she's in two places at once.
B. While I didn't notice any major graphics issues, I can verify that as a Dominant I never seemed to be able to spank the ladies enough. I'd go hard, I'd use the hairbrush (currently the only implement), I'd scold and tease, I'd do this 10 times, and still they would leave unsatisfied. This was...unsatisfying.
C. As a sub, I verified the 'impressions' crash. The game freezes. Probably because the , to paraphrase, "I'm gonna blister your ass NOW ! Come with me" event would respawn and there would be two instances or something like that.
D. The butt icon MOSTLY seemed to work for me, but maybe I wasn't looking at it enough. It would go white, at least when totes healed. And it was red when spanked.

Anyway, remember I'm running this directly in Windows 7 and the only 'weird' thing I'm doing is I changed properties to run it in 640*480 to get a large window...which you would think might mess with some graphics but nothing else.

Now to finish: I LOVE it. Since I'm not yet a Patreon, I don't have that scene, but all the regular spankings of me seem to work well: the perfume bottles, the clothing, the attempt to steal money , etc. Also, with the exception that I haven't yet gotten them to be satisfied, the implements, comments, etc seem to work fine when I'm spanking the girls. And my spankings felt like new because they were all at least a LITTLE different, thanks to all that new dialogue and the system for switching it in. Both Ruby and Innkeeper got me to almost blush at times for different reasons.

Thanks again. IF your poll is still up tomorrow night I will answer it

Don't know if it's intentional or not, but the dialog for giving ruby the hairbrush is repeatable.

Can't for the life of me progress in the first town. Tried to talk to the elder, but all he says is "Hello, do you need something." Am I missing something?

Yep, you want the OLD version . New version is going to have the same path, but all the mechanics have been improved and it's only working in the Inn right now.

Old version link is in the OP.

@tontomanzz: Squirm is actually a good idea for a change...

Each of the options changes the progression of the scene in some way, cry and plead do it slowly while argue and struggle do it more quickly. By progression I mean that the spanker will make it worse for you, either by baring you or switching to an implement. Sometimes if you really press their buttons they will do both at the same time. However getting punished the spanker looks for two things, your crying and the damage you have taken since the start. If you cry enough they will stop regardless of your damage, if you reach the damage they are looking for they will also stop. But if the spanker gets too tired they will also stop, so if you can out last them by pleading and only crying a little bit, you may get out with less damage at the cost of submission, while arguing deals more damage to you and ends it quicker. You can break out of some scenes with struggle too.

@remo1: Glad you liked it and hopefully I can get these working soon.

@otakuyami: It is, because you're supposed to be given the implement you gifted them back after they use it or you use it once. Would you prefer that implements stay with them until you give them another? Each npc will have a tool they will use by default, and gifting them something only overrides that once, currently.

[Otakuyami]

Ah, gotcha.

She's never actually given the hairbrush back to me, she will say she's returning it but it will pop up a message about my endurance increasing instead of giving it back. This repeats every time you talk to her.
