Gynocracy - Chapter 4: The Gift
Added 2023-08-27 11:54:16 +0000 UTCHello everyone, I'm happy to announce the 4th chapter of Gynocracy is finished and available for download.
Once again, thank you so much for all your support and your patience.
PC version (Windows/Linux)
macOS version
Android version (experimental)
If you finished Chapter 3 before, you can continue from auto-save. In the main menu, go to Load, click "A" at the bottom and you should see an auto-save.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has provided feedback on previous chapters. It's very important to me because after all, I'm making the game for you, so I want to know what you think.
I've already tried to address some of your feedback in this chapter, but of course it's impossible to please everyone all at once. But I do read all of your feedback with keen interest, so please keep it coming!
Thank you and have fun with Chapter 4!

About Danielle's scene: She likes to present herself as a cold, calculating personality. This was a way to show her blowing off steam. I don't think it was out of character for her - she's a scheming, Machiavellian manipulator. Completely reconfiguring a man's identity is right up her alley, IMO.

2023-09-03 08:08:56 +0000 UTCI understand your point of view. I'll try to explain mine :) The umbrella term "femdom", despite being a niche, covers a wide variety of activities and kinks. This inevitably means that different people expect very different things. My solution to this problem is to have a diverse cast of characters with different "interests". The downside is that not everyone will like everything. And I think that's okay! As long as they find something interesting later. That's why it's very important for people to tell me what they'd like to see, and what they'd like to see more or less of, and I thank you all for that. Of course, I can't please everyone and include everything (that only leads to burnout/abandonment, as we've seen before), but I will at least consider how it fits into the overall narrative/feel of the game. I hope that makes sense.

2023-09-03 08:02:03 +0000 UTCWell, being forced to be sucked by a guy or to suck and deeptroath a strap on dildo isn't on the same level of the of the scenes seen till now (which mostly involved "psycological humiliation" or "servitude" or "fear", etc..). The level of the "npc slaves" also changed (IIRC till now we only had like basic servants), and the president just looks like a not so sane individual now.. next time we'll see the usual 'furniture NPCs' and more weird stuff and so the cycle will be complete. What I mean is this: I loved the "setting" you created and I was hoping you wouldn't need to go to the extreme weidness like most of the games with this theme seem almost forced to follow (they actually aren't!).. concentrating on the dom\sub shift of their relation, on the unusual ways of the island, on the kinks we saw till now, on some bdsm from time to time (why not) should be enough to build on for almost an entire game.. I honestly don't like\understand this "race on the weirdest femdom scene" most games with this theme have, I actually think it makes them worse. Anyway.. I just wanted you to understand the reason behind my feedback, Idk if it makes any sense :D Bye, and gl with the game.

2023-09-01 20:49:43 +0000 UTCThank you. I'm sorry the scenes weren't to your taste, I didn't consider them *that* hard myself. As for the bathroom scene, I was too busy with the new chapter to retouch older chapters (once you start doing that, it can be a big can of worms :) I do however plan a slightly improved build (something like 0.4.1) so I'll se what I can do about that dreaded scene.

2023-08-31 16:03:25 +0000 UTCPlayed. Liked the 'medical check up' :D, liked the variable scenes with the wife, didn't like the scene with the general (too hard, too early), didn't like at all the scene with the president (too hard, too early, don't like any of the two possible choices), didn't like the fact that you didn't touch the poor 'zero text' scene in the bathroom. That's my honest feedback, bye ;)

2023-08-28 16:37:23 +0000 UTCGood points. Perhaps Ashcroft's regime, still relatively new, hasn't yet been able to implement all the rigid bureaucratic red tape. I would imagine that the situation for male (and undesirable female) citizens will gradually worsen as more restrictions are put in place.

2023-08-28 15:45:49 +0000 UTCThat's a good point. I was going for an ominous look, but didn't consider the Mediterranean sun :) Generally speaking, unfortunately, the assets available are somewhat limited, especially exteriors so one has to improvise.

2023-08-28 15:37:57 +0000 UTCI’ll post some more thoughts in Discord under suggestions. Hopefully, more readers feel like joining in.

2023-08-28 13:52:15 +0000 UTCI think you miss out on some great potential word-building with the “I had to take a bus because – apparently – my privilege to use Kalie’s government had been revoked” throwaway line. Controlling male mobility seems an obvious mechanism for a gynocracy to constrain and direct male behavior. Shouldn’t men need female permission from their guardians to use public transport? A permission slip telling the Househusband-ward where and when he is allowed to go. Can’t have unruly males running around anywhere without appropriate feminine oversight. Changing the text to “Kalie had signed a permission form for me to take the bus to the research center that got there 30 minutes early. I had to wait outside for them to open” for instance? Mind you I would love for everything to be integrated into the collars or some other wearable non-removerable item of jewelry/clothing. Alternatively, he really should be photographed and fingerprinted for some appropriate ID as a legal male resident. Have him sign the immigration form at the same time. A “Chains of paper” element would make the scenario both more sexy and plausible. I mentioned the Saudi system that allows male citizens to keep tabs on female dependents and control their movements – something similar in reverse.

2023-08-28 13:04:01 +0000 UTCLooking forward to trying it out. One minor quibble after trying out the first few minutes that has bothered me in several episodes: Architecture. Buildings don’t look like something you would find on a Mediterranean Island city-state. There is a reason most buildings in the Mediterranean are white or in light sun-reflecting colors. The research center looks like a combination of dark/black steel and glass. That would be challenging for industrial-grade climate control in a sun-kissed 40-centigrade warm Mediterranean summer. Steel and glass skyscrapers that maximize interior daylight are terrific in temperate foggy climates – less so when you get lots of sun under warm conditions. It just doesn’t look Mediterranean. Minor I know but perhaps something to consider when worldbuilding your next project?

2023-08-28 12:12:43 +0000 UTCThis was the best chapter so far. Really looking forward to the seeing where the relationship with Kalie goes.
