The Pill 0.4.7 Release!

UPDATE: It turns out the mac issue is a Unity-wide problem to do with newer versions of OSX. I have built the game in a newer version of Unity which has the fix for some of the Mac issues. If you're a mac user please re-download and let me know if it works (there have been mixed results of success on the forums).

Happy weekend to you all! I am excited to release to you The Pill v0.4.7. Many of you have been patiently waiting for it and while I wouldn't call it Mozart I am proud of the result.

With it comes a new character to add to the roster 'Luca'! This version adds the first part of her chapter, with the second being introduced in v0.4.8 coming later this year. As stated above, it brings a host of new transformations, animations, ending and unlocks.

PC version | Mac version | Android version (note: experimental, videos may not work).

Whenever these come out I normally start a new game (which does not remove your achievement unlocks) but in theory this should work with all existing saves as well.

One thing that's different about this chapter is that I've tried to spread the loading load across the chapter itself, which means you get in faster, but does result in some pauses during dialogue. It's a step in the right direction but ideally in a future version, I'll look into proper asynchronous loading to solve the issue.

As always it's still an alpha so let me know of any issues you have and I'll try to address them as soon as I can. Otherwise enjoy!

The Pill 0.4.7 Release!

Comments

great work!love the part of luca muscle growth,thats Amazing like mixing with BE and height growth which make sense from physics lol. hope to see more fmg and height mixing with be. really wonderful animation

Johnathan

Glad you liked it! And luckily there is more Luca in the next update :)

B.E. Grove

Luca Luca Luca Luca! Please more of her in future versions. She clearly loves growth most of all, so hopefully there's one where she gets really big (more than what we have now)

Lex

Huzzahs! Really glad it worked.

B.E. Grove

I downloaded the game for a third time but this time on a flash drive and a very clear day and now it works!

chris

What happens when you try to run the .exe file? Do you get an error?

B.E. Grove

Not sure this one would ever get through Nintendo's content filter... Steam maybe one day though 😉

B.E. Grove

One day 😉

B.E. Grove

I seem to have problems with it. I downloaded it, but i can't seem to run it at all. I am using a PC.

Moose3rd

When does this release on the Switch? jklol

Zhyacar Evenst

so i got thru all of it its very great i guess im looking forward to a 4th character now hopefully one day.

DatGhostboi

Hope you enjoy.

B.E. Grove

awesome im finally back can't wait to play it yes.

DatGhostboi

There are, I'm on my mobile and can't grab them right now but you can find them in the Content Catch Up. There's one for Belle, Trish and one on how to get the secret ending in The Party.

B.E. Grove

Which version of the os are you using?

B.E. Grove

That's a first. What operating system are you using?

B.E. Grove

Are there guides for the endings?

xFlashback

I can't get it to open on mac. Immediately quits after opening.

I am having some technical issues, the option menu doesn't stop blinking in and out fast on top of the game. I have tried reinstalling or messing with the option settings, no dice. Has anyone experienced this issue before?

RedWolf

The catch-all type ending with the pill mixing has miffed a couple of folk and it's something I'll consider to look at when I make the second part of Luca's chapter. Even if it's just more unique animations. The chapters are connected, which will be partly made evident in the second part of Luca's story and may be more cemented in future chapters.

B.E. Grove

I will say this was very well done. Luca might be my favorite now but that might also have to do with having just played through her content. Plus her content was stuff that is more my taste then some of the other stuff in the game so that will naturally give her brownie point. Will say at first when I was doing the double pill into other pill routes I thought there might be different ending for it but it was the same as the other mix. Which was a bit unfortunate but I can understand how it would end up at a similar place. Regardless I still appreciate giving it variety in how you get there and how it starts. It’s a nice touch that didn’t necessarily need to be there. On another note I’ve been wondering something since I checked out the party chapter. Are all these chapters connected somehow? I know they all take place in the same world. Heck the first 2 girls know each other. However I was more so thinking in a more concrete timeline type thing. Or is it more of a loose connection at best where it’s more so intended as a reference/callback at best and not something to really be over thinking about.

dawnbreaker

I know many love it, but unfortuntaely multibreast isn't something I'm planning on in the near future. The main reason being that compared to other types of transformations it's actually really hard using the software I do.

B.E. Grove

You're headed in the right direction.

B.E. Grove

Interesting - are these saves ones that you have done on the latest build or ones from past builds?

B.E. Grove

I'll keep your suggestions in mind - at the moment for Android I'm just doing a straight up conversion of the PC version, but if I am able to make it more customised I will.

B.E. Grove

Hi Dark Matter, glad you enjoyed the story, save for the height/muscle elements. The next pill 'vitality' will focus on butt growth, and when combined with charisma will... well you'll find out. I actually saved it for last because I felt the average patron would appreciate it more as a standalone than the power pill.

B.E. Grove

Thanks Jacob, glad you enjoyed it.

B.E. Grove

loving the story in this chapter they are the best couple

Jacob

Sorry if you mentioned this elsewhere or if its in this update i have had a chance yet to see it ,but do you plan on or have considered multi-breast.

It's a great game and it has me wondering about that vitality pill maybe some rear end love

God's mistake

Hey there i have some "save game" problems.. i cant load a save. If i m in game it just turns black and from the menu nothing is happening :(

GKMoritz

On Android can you make the icons twice as big and move them in one icon space and up/down one icon space? It also seems that the animations are stretched wide.

Dagoloth

That’s funny cause I’m pretty sure the first versions of the pill were done in Ren’Py for that exact reason, but it was too inefficient. Maybe the change came with adding Trish, I don’t entirely remember

Allan Ellsworth

Have you ever looked into using Ren'PY instead of Unity? It may save you time since it is designed for visual novels. Just a suggestion.

Wonderful work. The story was fun and the animations were great. I'm not personally part of the GTS or muscle growth crowds (the former does nothing for me and the latter actively turns me off), but I'm happy those enthusiasts have an update more focused on them. Hoping future releases will focus more primarily on BE (and maybe to a lesser extent butt growth). That third BE sequence in this update was one of my favorites you've ever done!

Dark Matter

Dexterity won't be included I'm afraid as vitality is the third pill. Going for four would put the possible combinations into the hundreds, though be assured that there will still be a nice variety of transformations from these combos!

B.E. Grove

Will there also be a dexterity pill added in the next update or would that be too much?

Rex429

Thank you for asking. You have to download this version, there is no update function as of yet in the game.

B.E. Grove

Hello, Do you have to download this version or is there an update to the old one ? (Translate with Google)

The amount of work that goes into it can definitely be daunting, but if you break it down into the individual pieces (writing/modelling/compiling) it just becomes a matter of time and persistance.

B.E. Grove

You might need to wipe your Unity Player Preference: https://answers.unity.com/questions/22088/i-cant-find-playerprefs-on-windows.html#:~:text=On%20Windows%20standalone%20players%2C%20PlayerPrefs,%25%5CUnity%5CWebPlayerPrefs%20on%20Windows. Also if you don't want to go into registry try hitting alt+enter. It'll go full screen, but may cause some popups to be in the wrong location.

B.E. Grove

After you unzip it, it should just be a matter of double clicking The Pill.exe file

B.E. Grove

This appears to be a Unity wide issue: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/macos-builds-now-contain-a-quarantine-attribute?_ga=2.140049331.1855096908.1619435003-1842713861.1615266901 I'm updating my Unity version and hopefully that will solve the issue, though if not trench-lust discovered a workaround here: https://youtu.be/6fqzb4qpgcs

A slight difference, but I'm glad you noticed.

B.E. Grove

There are guides for the other chapters, though not yet for this one. The guides can be found in the content catch up post.

B.E. Grove

Thanks WestX, if I can get one true LOL moment each update I count it as a win.

B.E. Grove

Hope it all worked out for you.

It's true, though this time the issue seems to be communication error between unity and the new mac OS (https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/macos-builds-now-contain-a-quarantine-attribute?page=1#comments)

B.E. Grove

Glad you were able to get a workaround, and that you enjoyed it :)

B.E. Grove

Gotta keep her in check somehow.

B.E. Grove

That it will.

Happy (belated) birthday!

B.E. Grove

Thanks again, from looking in to this, this does appear to currently be a good solution.

B.E. Grove

Thanks trench-lust, much appreciated!

B.E. Grove

To anyone having trouble with opening the Mac app because it's "damaged" I found this solution which helped me and it worked fine. https://youtu.be/6fqzb4qpgcs

skirby

Brilliant as always. Its always fun trying to find all the endings and seeing how everything plays out! Well done!

skirby

I'm not sure how, but the app starts in a very narrow window that I can't resize. I'm using Windows, and the app had worked previously.

real_hesh

Yeah it said I needed 10.13 or higher so I have to use my pc. Im still trying to figure out how to get it to work from the zip on my windows.

Matthew Jodoin

Yeah unfortunately I am unable to get the mac version to work for me as well :/

JacDa

Took me a second to realize the compound endings were all different animations. Very nice

OsMyDog

Yeah I'm afraid the Mac version still isn't working.

RC

I agree. Not able to change or make the game fullscreen even with the usual hotkeys. Makes it impossible to see or play

CC

Is there a guide to get all the endings available?

why is the game only in a small window?? no fullscreen available on PC?

BELover02

I actually laughed out loud about Luca and the wallet test. Excellent work all around on her chapter.

WestX

As usual a great update. I can see the hard work that went into this and it only makes me stay away from making a game for now because of the time it takes to do this. This is a very very good project you got there!

DragoonGTS

Looking forward to Vitality myself, would also like to see dexterity pills that would make her frame more petite as well.

Some Guy

Downloading it now. I'm hype to see the new stuff!

royaljelly

Amazing work!

Would those be Heightened charisma, towering power, and one too many? while they end the same they start with three different builds depending on earlier choices she can start with two charisma and add a strength for heightened charisma, I'm fairly certain towering power is 2 strength with an added charisma and one to many starts with 1 strength and 1 charisma than adds an additional of one of the two.

Some Guy

masterwork dude , this new animations .... 1st i was like only 5 endings ? we are being robbed , but after plaing i changed my mind . Simply amazing , i can say for whole comunity we want more asap :D wonder what will vitality pills do :D this was the best chapter yet !

Pazneccht

Im also having Mac problems

you might want to try different software opening the file. Sometimes the software your using actually wrecks the file.

PetetheTroll

So popping open my backup Windows machine, I was able to get a chance to play this. I think Luca is my fave of the girls. Looking forward to the next part when Vitality gets added!

whatajoke2

Will the Vitality pill be available in the next update?

Rex429

An amazonian to compete with Trish? I'm liking this

Olaughalot

Saving and loading does not work for me. The first time I tried all of my saves disappeared. No big deal, but something wrong is going on. Also, I LOVE the Luca's story side and her animations are probably my favourite, but still, three of her achievements looks exactly the same :(

HektorPlasm

also getting the issues with Mac

whatajoke2

Still having the same issue as above on Mac, saying it is damaged.

MysteryJoker

So great timing! The day after my birthday!

Seán Davidson

I've done a re-build and am uploading a new version now. Will let you know the link when it's ready

B.E. Grove

it keeps telling me the file is damaged and cant be opened and to move it to trash. im on mac.
