[ SpanQuestDX ] - SpanQuest enhancement/continuation

[jill9511]

I totally vote that you should keep Banjo it is a fun Where's Waldo game, it would be cool if he stayed off the beaten path, so you need to fully search an area to find him. Also love how as you progress through the game he is in different spots. I understand that at the moment this is done to show the unfinished areas but still find him is amazing. It is also neat that other then the main character Banjo is the most mobile character in the game.

Anyway Thank You!! as always for your hard work.

Example: "I'd really like a chance to spank Armei. Here's how I think that might work..."

I can't promise I'll actually do it, given my own limited time and admitted priorities (as I said in another post, I find it a lot easier to work on things I find a turn-on for me personally) but I will consider each one and if possible, try and implement it if it's doable.

The thing to keep on mind is that as a hardwired F/m fan, that is what comes "naturally" to me in imagining any spanking situation. It may not even occur to me that a different pairing 'fits' a scene until someone suggests it!

I feel bad for Xev as even I totally forgot her myself!

Thanks, that info is really helpful and I will be looking at each of your examples. The Prince is easily the most likely at this point, since it was something that actually feels "missing" to me rather than something I or someone else just would like added (Armei's parents, etc.). My own DX version has added hints that Farris (the guard commander) and Prince Ashton have some sort of 'relationship' so that might come into play later too.

I gave Toby a new portrait and sprite for next update. Nothing else yet, and I've not thought about what to do with him (and his and Karen's houses) but now he's one step closer to not just being an "extra" at least.


Next update, you will be able to choose to "take the blame" and get spanked by Doctor Sheldon in place of Dawn the trainee nurse. There is a small optional reward if you do, too (Dawn will offer to "soothe" you ).


Shilva & Armei: Already fixed next update.
Geran: Unchanged so far but now you can be friendly with him afterwards (it's how you unlock Su if you missed Carrie at the daycare, too)
Rose: Fixed next update. Rose now has a way to get the brooch without spanking her (it's somewhat 'hidden'... related to stealing from her)
Dr Sheldon & Dawn: Fixed next update. Doctor Sheldon now has a fully sub outcome.
Pandora: Not fixed yet, but fully intended eventually (yes, using Melena).
Anya: Not changed; I'd like to make a sub path for her but it's a lot of work as she's quite complex code-wise.
Gudrid & Canute: main goal of fixing the lack of sub option when confronting Gudrid is done, so resting on my laurels a bit there until I find time to look at the NG+ for them and post-festival punishment. Will definitely have a sub option when I do, though. For now, will look at giving a dialog option at the festival at least.


I laughed out loud reading this, but I actually love that idea and will include it eventually (though once most of the things that annoying guy is guarding gets added). Maybe a NG+ thing?

Incidentally, even though I'm mainly a sub, this reminded me of a few games where a recurring character or group kept turning up and I wanted to spank them myself eventually! Fallout 3 onwards' BoS people being everywhere I walked into was an example of this...

A where's Waldo, but with Banjo sound really cool. And if you find him in all his spots you can get the option of spanking him as an easter egg. Or even getting spanked by him for pure Sub players. But definitely keep him in the game in some way.

Also did you ever check Cosmina and not being able to remove her from the effect of the Rod of Subjugation. Oh and in regards to the Rod when you complete the quest for the Rod it isn't listed as complete in your quest log.

I know you can steal some money from her in the same drawer the Brooch is in. I assume it is connected with that.

Also I figure your aware of this, but a few quests don't appear in the quest log when you preform them. I ended up with 41 quest and there were 49 total quests. Four of them are the two sunbathers, the guard of the Marsh, and returning Matilda's instruments. You gave a list of all quests in the game and those where 4 I did, but where not in the quest log. Four of those quest were Sub only and I know 2 of them do show up (Dale and Sasha). I don't think Lyra shows up either, but I have no idea on Teena (I never unlocked hers).

Also I'm really thankful you are still adding things to this game and are willing to listen to input from others. It makes you a better game developer than most official companies that is for sure.

Thanks! I try my best, even though I feel I don't always put enough time into my online stuff, art or otherwise. Life was a lot less busier when I started this back in my student days!

I won't rant about the legit developers (AAA and indie) who don't support their games, but I *really* want to...

Thanks for the quest log info; that's very helpful for to cross-reference. I do know not everything is in there, though, and will look at adding those when I can. The log is still very much a WIP/beta feature, and to be honest, adding things to it is pretty boring and time consuming compared to the 'fun' of adding other things to the game, but I will continue to update it. Same goes for the upcoming Codex feature. The fact both of these weren't designed as part of the game from the start is what makes them more work to add to.

Cosmina's lock-up glitch will be fixed in the next update; thanks for spotting that. I don't use the RoS myself much, so never noticed that was a bug left over from the original game.

Even as a sub, I wanted to (and was surprised I couldn't) spank Aston even in NG+ after the snarky remarks he makes to the player!

In the next update, Rose will give you the brooch if you ask for a spanking after she's already spanked you "nicely" and "severely" (the severe spanking will be new, and is triggered by something someone suggested elsewhere in this thread, no spoilers but ask if you can't find out how once the update is posted).

"Banjo" will continue to make cameo appearances in some form, promise, and will eventually be spankable (it would be a stretch of my imagination to make him a spanker too, but maybe...)

I'm hoping this next update will fix most remaining bugs or irritations in the original quests (i.e. "investigate oak outpost = ask Rocio about a dagger") because after that, I want to get started on polling everyone on which new content people want focused on next, since there's a lot planned and I need to prioritise.

Thank you (and everyone else) for your feedback, ideas, comments and thanks... that's what keeps me interested and working on this, you know!

I really like the "Where's Waldo?" idea (it's "Where's Wally?" here and it always confuses me seeing the alternate title, LOL!). If I don't use it for "Banjo" for some reason, I will use it as a quest for someone else!

Speaking of "Banjo", next update will have him appear up in an entirely different, optional way...

Sadly, no.

However, it's my intent that anything "missed" will be doable during NG+ after you finish the main quest. For example, you can now get switched by Armei in and (in the next update) spank Sophie and spank/get spanked by Rocio in NG+ if you missed out on this previously.

Not everything that can be missed is doable in NG+ now or even in the next update, but the plan is that it will be (I may need help later to track down what can be missed).

Note: I intended at one point to split "afternoon/evening" into separate "afternoon" (possibly until you reach Frostpoint and finish the school/almanac) and "evening" (festival endgame) but haven't had time to look at it and it probably wouldn't add much to the game outside of night being easier for thieving (regardless, the next update will have "thieving" and a thief guild, shh!)

Looking forward to the update. Going through and compiling the characters made me want to replay, but I'm waiting till you finish so I can see all the new goodies.

I just realized another potential spanker, Jean. I kept expecting him to spank the MC for making him homeless and he would be a good Male spanker for Red Valley (Female with the mod).

Also even though I prefer Male Doms when it comes to Coral Coast the character I most want to see is Rosa (especially after hearing about her paddle). You probably have your own thoughts on how to handle her, but I did think of something. Maybe you could steal some liquor behind the bar. If you don't have Sleight of Hand she catches the MC and puts him over her knee and spanks the MC's butt. If you do have Sleight of Hand she doesn't notice until you are walking out. She calls you back to the bar and asks if you know about her missing bottle. If you confess she has you bend over the counter and gives you 6 swats with the paddle on your pants. If you chose to run the female guard will walk in as you are trying to leave and catch you. She takes you back to Rosa and asks what's going on. Rosa says she believes you took some liqour. The guard will ask you herself and again you can confess. She will then take the liquor and give it to Rosa and then your character will bend over the counter for 12 swats on your underwear. If however you still deny the guard will search you and find the liquor. She will then put you over her knee and spank your bare butt (and with metal gloves that hurts more). Then she drags you over the counter and holds you while Rosa gives you 18 swats on the bare. Also maybe have her add 6 swats to any option if you wear the Amulet of Naughtyness.

That was just something that popped in my head.

How is it that I forgot Jean doesn't spank/get spanked in the game until reading this? I would love for a few scenes with her (since I play with the more females mod).

Also that's a briliant idea for getting spanked by Rosa and her paddle, though I'd have to ask if it would be repeatable I.E. I got caught because I didn't have the sleight of hand skill but now I do and want to see if I can get away with it. Just asking because if you couldn't try again then you wouldn't be able to get all the sub spankings in one play through.

I would like to see all spanking repeatable (except where it would mess with quests). So even though I failed the last two time to steal the booze, but I had so much fun, I am going to try to steal it again. Just makes it so you don't have to have a game save before your favorite spankings.

There were certain spanking scenes I made sure to keep a separate save just so I could see them again. The "ending scene" with Bakulyn and Cul was one major one. But I also had others. I know Veena was another one i really liked as well. But I've always liked both OTK spankings and the use of a hairbrush. Even if they are considered more for women. I also kept a save at the beginning of the school.

As some folks might know, F/m+OTK+hairbrush = my jam/OTP/life.

With that in mind, my favourite spanking that I've added to this game is Veena's, I think.

On tht subject, I was hoping to have the discussed "Mother's Union" content done in time for Mothers' Day but it is more likely to be a few updates away, sorry.

The Bakulyn and/or Cul "sub" endings were a joy to write, as like you I've wanted an ending to a game (this one certainly, but others too!) like that forever. Plus, an actual choice to "side" with the "villains" rather than being forced to defeat them is something else I always appreciate, rare though it is in games. I am still hoping to someday add some NG+ content for both Bakulyn and Cul, reflecting your ending choices, too.

I can certainly appreciate the desire to be able to reply your favourite scenes, especially as unlike something like a Visual Novel, a "replay cutscene" feature isn't really doable in this game.

However, I tend to lean towards not making too many spankings repeatable, for the following reasons:
1) Plot. The game takes place over two days, so it seems a bit unrealistic that someone would keep giving spankings to the same person dozens of times in the space of a few hours, fantasies aside!
2) Balance. It is easier to make player spankee scenes repeatable than player spanker scenes, and this therefore makes it much easier to rack up sub/brat points and "Spankings Received" compared to dom and "Spankings Given" points.
3) I eventually want to add "achievements"/unlocks for x number of spankings and brat/dom/sub points, and repeatable events would effect this.

Thus, keeping a save to replay tour favourite scenes is the best idea, I think. I am just very glad that people HAVE "favourite scenes" they want to revisit (and that some of my new ones have been mentioned here among them!).

Miss-able scenes are a different matter, of course; I want to make as few scenes "missable" as possible, though some might result from player gender or taking sub or dom paths; if a scene is missed due to player choice (direct or indirect), that's not a problem though.

Jean is definitely on the "to do" list for future expansion; as with the Prince, I was genuinely surprised there was no spanking content involved for him/her.

As a fan of the Shantae games, I was hoping to someday include Jean in some sort of homage to those perhaps, too.

I definitely have an idea planned for Rosa (hint, it involves the arrogant "dom" guy now added to the bar that you can either submit to or tell off and a "fight" in her bar!).

I like that idea of stealing from her bar, though; a nice, simple and fun way to add a "regular" and easy-to-get spanking from her. I will see what I can do, though it probably won't be in this next update but the following one (along with the "bar fight" content).

I don't know why but I have always loved the combo of X/m, OTK, hairbrush both as something I use and just to watch. So Veena's scene was a pleasure to witnes.

I agree 100% on the subject of both getting punished by the villain, but also siding with them as well. I've always liked the idea of villains beating heroes (Especially spankable ones) and punishing them.

I'm just glad this game has so many save slots and you can save anytime. That way replaying a scene isn't too difficult. Although I do like having options during scenes that can increase or decrease the severity of a spanking. Like for an example the Principal has multiple different punishments she can dish out depending on which Punishment Slip you hand in.

While in regards to plot because this is a game having the MC get spanked way more than is actually feasible is something I like. In either stories, drawing, or anime I actually like when a character gets spanked harder or longer than would be realistic. However in real life Porn I don't enjoy it as much.

Yeah I would really like to see more content for both the Prince and Jean. Right now their the most wanted characters in their respective towns (Frostpoint and Red Valley).

My first thought for Rosa was getting in a fight with the arrogant guy that could end in either one of you or both getting paddled. And if only one of you got paddled the person had to apologize to the other guy. If the apology wasn't sincere enough the person could get an extra spanking from the other for it.

Last night I ran the quest in Oak Outpost with the herbalist where you gather the manroot, Harpy feathers, and baby powder. When there was a pause between the potion and it working, my mind when to the idea that perhaps the potion needed a catalyst, a spanking in fact after drinking it to speed up the growing up, as getting spankings is a part of growing up. Either one from the herbalist, or perhaps she just sends you out to be spanked 3 times by others before you change back to your adult form.
