Looking for more writers for LEWD
Hi again~ One of my writers had to drop out and I could use at least one more.

All the details are here: www.playlewd.com/blog/?p=460

I'm more of a graphics person, not really a writer. So I might not be good at writing the kind of stuff you are looking for, because I have never really done any writing much less for erotic stuff.

That's cool. I still appreciate the interest and hope you like the game~ I think you showed me some stuff in the last thread, yeah?

No not really. There is a lot of things that could be changed/added to make things way better tho.
In the last thread I talked about improving the UI/UX and adding in graphics to the map. Maybe making a title set for it so new areas can be added.

I have always had a lot of ideas for sexual games, but I don't know enough about programming to make one. I have the graphic skills needed, but programming not so much. :(

You could always post UX/UI mockups on the LEWD forums. I think I mentioned that last time, but maybe I forgot.

Ah. I have made forum and blog posts mentioning that UI mockups was a thing I was looking for. I know the UI could be much better.

I want to keep the game story and writing focused, though, too.

Yeah, but every game that is writing based like a visual novel still needs to have some UI for the menu. Last time I saw this game it kind of looked like Monster Girl Quest. With a picture of the monster/character when they are talking to you and some kind of box that had text displayed in it. The boxes need work. XD

There's a screenshot on the game info page to see how it currently looks. I think it's missing the chat and population numbers in it, since that's a screen from the solo mode.

I got some of those major things implemented in the engine that i mentioned earlier. The one that would make it easily to procedural generate content (though the writing for the amphibious aliens to make use of that isn't finished and in just yet), and most things done the implement the others though they still need some finishing up.

Also updated the Patreon bot to keep people's pledges and how much they've contributed updated to their LEWD account.

Also had to do implement some things to deal with people stealing. 'cause you know, who cares about supporting someone working so hard at something. May as well abuse Patreon's poorly implemented system to steal. :/

Aye. Most I've seen are $10 or $15.

I might have to increase it to $3 or $4 later this year though because the $2 eats A LOT in fees from CC merchants/paypal. The lower the amount, the higher the fee.
The last month, fees ate up 9% of the money which is a crazy amount.

But I figure this is something I'd like to keep building for years and have tens of millions of words of content. Like something you can pretty much never finish if you count all the variations with different play throughs. But at $4, that's $48 a year which is pretty ridiculous to expect of lots of people I think (even when it becomes for test server access when the public server is up for free in September)

Maybe when I raise it, I'll just need to add a reward for permanent test server access instead of having to pay by month, or something.
