2023 Q4 Dev Diary



Since not everyone spends all their time reading through my Discord, I thought it might be useful to let you the rest of you know what's going on with the development and what's in store, where the game's heading etc.

First of all, I'm trying to have the next Early Access for the Detention Supervisors up by the end of next week. I've got a ton of stuff I still need to do, so we'll see if I'll make it. I'm going to try my best, though. My day job's just kinda been crushing me with deadlines and really difficult tasks, so it's been hard to sneak in some Club Detention development time.

In the next update, I've done an overhaul for the Journal's character sheet. It's still not perfect, but you can see more of the girls' stats, club status, club class (these do nothing yet, though, sorry) and their favorite subjects. And all the characters are neatly categorized and ordered alphabetically. I've added new level 0 hostess club events to the club and moved the current level 0 events up to the next rank. I think this makes for a more believable start for the girls in the club.

I know I've been talking about releasing Samantha's storyline for a while now, but I'm afraid I couldn't resist continuing Natalie's storyline for a bit. She gets a few more story scenes and a new ritual.

Fans of buff girls will also be pleased to hear that Shirley will have a new after-workout option for those of you who have been training hard with her. The other beefcake, Hannah, gets a couple of brief massage parlor scenes as well. Muscle fans rejoice.

So, what's next for Club Detention..?

Besides getting some Samantha in the game, I've been planning on redoing the school and class system. Instead of forcing you to make a timetable each Monday and having you attend classes to raise the girls' grades, the school will have a similar management interface to that in the club. Basically, assign teachers to teaching different subjects you've unlocked. Also, you won't be required to attend each class to raise the girls' grades. I've been thinking about other major changes to the game flow, but I'll have to keep thinking about those and whether or not I want to make drastic changes to it now or ever.

And now that a certain someone has joined the school's ranks, I'd like to start adding more research options to unlock more club rooms, an alternative curriculum, new school outfits etc. The problem with this is that the existing club rooms also require some tender love and care - that is, more content for all the girls. It'll be a constant balancing act to push the game forward and beef out the previous parts.
