HardLife v0.2398 private beta

When is the next version coming out?

This was Lisa's first appearance: <a href="http://fav.me/d6vff7k" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://fav.me/d6vff7k</a> ... she's also briefly in Dreyanna's story around chapter 08. I was wanting to add someone from my story universe who should have stats of roughly 100, for testing and fun, and she seemed like the obvious choice... plus she needs a bit more attention/love, she promises to be an interesting character to develop. (she has a bit of a height/size complex, despite towering above the males of her homeworld... mostly because her mother, Commodore Victoria Irons, was truly massive. Lisa's spent her whole career trying to escape that giant shadow... while at the same time trying to find out what happened to her mother's fleet those many years ago.) Forgive the low resolution on that picture, Its supposed to be in the archive here on patreon, looks like I need to update the archive a bit. (I'll post the high res versions today)

Yes, I will hopefully be getting back to descriptions soon (now that I have the development of individual body-regions/muscle-groups available to draw on and refine the size calculations with). I'm also working out the "double-parked" encounter for characters with 60+ STR, and probably some variations for lower and higher levels. When I get back to working on clothing (which will be after v0.4 sometime), I plan on integrating a sizing system so you can outgrow/flex/rip out of them... of course that will also make it harder to find new clothes that fit; I also need to add hooks to the encounter system to have people react to your attire, or lack thereof, which will make dressing a more useful mechanic. Lisa is getting a buff from 100 to 120, and I've refined her starting text a bit. (wish we could use paragraphs/linebreaks in these comments). Have you noticed how much more efficient your body has become at high levels? While you're still burning a lot of calories, its no longer at a life-threatening pace. (Lisa, for example, can burn 3 pounds on a good-long workout, whereas previously it would have been well over 30 pounds, and sometimes in the hundreds!) Draining them will be easy enough... but I'll have to figure out how to get all of them to train together, instead of having to run them through one at a time... perhaps you could multi-drain too... Have you seen the updated map and discussion on: <a href="https://shadowrx.deviantart.com/status/13743280" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://shadowrx.deviantart.com/status/13743280</a> ? I added 10 more places last night, and worked out about a dozen more that should be interesting. (there's a bit of story/plot coming together with the Sacred Mountain Lodge and an Ancient Primal Spring guarded by a secret order at their monastery... which will be connected to the corporate office building and its proverbial glass ceiling.) I've also figured out how Lisa got there, as apparently the explosion that flung her into space also resulted (possibly from a ballistic Lisa) in another ship being damaged/crashing... and of course, that HAD to be in a cornfield (that is where ALL alien ships are supposed to crash, right?), so there'll be a farm too. Anyway, there's a bunch of ideas that should keep me busy adding content all the way to v1.0 now :)

The new systems are interesting. I suspect a vary fast way to build absurd levels of muscles in the future would be to do get dozens of bodybuilding slaves that you can repeatedly drain. That sounds like a lot of fun. &lt;3 Love Lisa Irons, but I really do hope the description system is getting expanded because things like clothing are pretty useless. In fact, really the only interaction with your muscles at the moment are a few descriptive words and getting strong enough to one punch everything.
