[Ren'py] [VN] Devilish Business [v0.71] [Bawdy Baron]

[BawdyBaron]

 

Hello everyone!

 

I'm BawdyBaron and I'm the developer of a Visual Novel called Devilish Business.

 

In Devilish Business you play as a recent high-school graduate with big plans for the summer, but a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger will change your life forever.

 

The game currently contains over 250,000 words of dialogue with multiple endings that you can achieve based on the choices you make throughout the game. It's light on artwork and polish at the moment, but heavy on story.

 

Gameplay
You have 60 days of summer to navigate, interacting with a number of characters, in various situations. Your choices will raise or lower your influence over the various characters and will impact the ending you receive when summer ends.

 

Fetishes

• Dating sim
• Male protagonist
• Milf
• Lesbian
• Big tits
• Mind control
• BDSM (optional)
• Group sex
• Corruption
• and more!

Update: Devilish Business v0.48b

 

v0.48b has arrived, and it brings some new art with it!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-21649775

 

The girls now have underwear! More importantly, I have arranged for all of their clothing to be in separate layers that I can individually manipulate. This opens up a world of possibilities.

 

Patch notes:

• New art!
• Added some new backgrounds.
• Fixed a bug that was preventing endings from triggering.
• Fixed a conflict with Emma's and Jessica's "dates".
• Fixed some bugs in Jessica's BDSM scene.
• Fixed some bugs in Ashley's video game scene.
• Streamlined a conversation option with Mom.
• Cleared up some minor "to-dos".

Hopefully this new art, such as it is, tides people over for a while. The next art update will definitely be more explicit!

Update: Devilish Business v0.49b

 

V0.49b has arrived! This update includes a bunch of new content for Candace (mom)!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-22302640

 

Patch notes:

• Added about 35,000 words of content for Candace.
• Added a number of new backgrounds.
• Streamlined a lot of the ending scenes code.
• Removed all code for images not currently present in the game.
• Allowed "rollback" in some places where it was previously disabled.
• Made the player go back to the club after completing work for Nick.
• Adjusted various values for better balance.
•  

I'm pretty happy with this update. I still have some work to do on the endings to take the new content into account, but it works pretty well.

 

Players likely wont see the streamlining of the endings, but I have made it a lot easier for me to edit and work around.

 

I had originally put in code for images that I had planned but that didn't exist yet as a way of showing what the future held, but it was just causing confusion so that has been removed.

 

I've also made a few basic changes that should improve realism and make it more entertaining.

 

As for the future: I currently expect v0.50b to contain the first true lewd images! No ETA on that yet, but look forward to it!

A lot of the new content for Candace isn't available "out of the box" so to speak, but someone has created a patch.

[BawdyBaron]

Update: Devilish Business v0.50b

 

My Christmas present to you: Devilish Business v0.50b

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-23461052

 

This update includes a bunch of new content for Cassandra and a bit of new (lewd) art for Ashley!

 

Patch notes:

• Added about 15,000 words of content for Cassandra.
• Added some new art for one of Ashley's lewd scenes.
• Added an indicator that the Lewd Patch is active.
• Filled in some of the endings with existing art.
• Fixed some awkward wording and minor bugs (thanks HeavyEavy!)

It's late - as usual - but I think I've added some good content.

 

Cassandra ended up being a lot sluttier than I initially envisioned, but I don't think anyone is going to complain about that!

 

And I hope you all enjoy the added art for Ashley (hint: treat her to a nice lunch). It's not much, but it's something.

 

The next update should primarily include some Candace+Cassandra content, so look forward to that.

 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Update: Devilish Business v0.51b

 

Here comes version 0.51b!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-24379630

 

This update adds nude art for Candace and Cassandra as well as a number of sexy new scenes.

 

Patch notes:

 

• Added nudes for Candace and Cassandra.
• Added a Cassandra + Jessica threesome scene.
• Added a Cassandra + Candace threesome scene.
• Added a Cassandra/Candace + Ashley threesome scene.
• Added a new scene with Candace.
• Enabled more nudes in the ending scenes.
• Changed the day you learn Corruption to day 20.
• Changed the requirements for getting Candace and Cassandra to join you in the end.
• Fixed an issue that sometimes prevented Candace and/or Cassandra from joining you in the end.
• Fixed a bug that happened when buying costumes (thanks firetemplar415).

As promised, this update is heavy on Candace and Cassandra content. Not coincidentally, Nick will no longer say "Future Content" sometimes when you ask him for gossip and rumors; he has a few more interesting things to say now. Make sure you talk to him.

 

I enabled the girls' nudes in a lot of the ending scenes. They may not always match up with the text descriptions, but they're good enough for now.

 

As I mentioned in my last progress update on my Patreon, I changed the day that you can learn Corruption from day 30 to day 20. I think this will speed up some elements while giving players a little bit of breathing room to make mistakes and explore story-lines. There's definitely enough content that you can miss things even if you're trying for a specific outcome.

 

Like the other girls, Candace and Cassandra now have requirements beyond high influence before they will join you in the end. Be careful you don't miss their character development scenes, and make sure you treat them nicely.

 

Have fun, and thanks for all your support!

Version 0.52b is complete!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-25120207

 

Art, gameplay-improvements, and bug-fixes galore in this update.

 

Patch notes:

• Added underwear art for Candace and Cassandra.
• Added a new scene with Candace before your date with Ashley.
• Added the ability to skip straight to the end (thanks rewyb).
• Added dialogue for further lunches with Jessica and Cassandra.
• Changed the day you can learn Corruption to day 19 as day 20 is a Saturday (thanks Isel). You still need more than 50 influence with him though.
• Added some GUI elements for the Android version that makes choices more visible.
• Removed some of the RNG factor from Nick's rumors (thanks Darthjake).
• Improved RNG factor for various other scenes.
• Increased chance of doing Devilish Business for Nick.
• Increased the influence gain with Nick to better keep up with the girls.
• Fixed a bug that made Jessica text you every night.
• Fixed a bug that prevented progress with Candace (thanks ShocLite12)

Candace and Cassandra now have underwear! That is to say, they can now take off their clothes! Thank you to all my patrons for your contributions; this is all thanks to you!

 

I also added code to make certain random events more likely to happen the longer they go without happening. It shouldn't be super obvious but you're a lot less likely to have a playthrough with a lot of missed scenes. Similarly, Nick's rumors will not repeat so much.

 

I hope you enjoy the update; thanks again to all my supporters!

A slightly longer wait than usual, but v0.53b is here!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-26060486 

 

Patch Notes:

• Added a new scene with Ashley that includes the purchasable SciFi costume.
• Added a new scene with Emma that includes the  purchasable cheerleader costume.
• Added a Candace+Cassandra scene when you take them out for supper. Includes the purchasable toys.
• Added a scene with Candace that may occur before your first date with Emma.
• Added a new Main Menu screen that shows the progress you've made with each character. (thanks wibble)
• Added some hints that will help you navigate Candace's story without a walkthrough.
• Made gaining influence with Emma a little easier.
• Modified Emma's dinner date to be more nuanced on subsequent playthroughs.
• Fixed a bug that messed up single-girl, non-devilish endings. (thanks milaKonnichiwa )
• Fixed a bug during the winery tour that made Jessica talk about lewd stuff that didn't happen. (thanks The_Krypt_Angel )
• Fixed a bug in Ashley's scene that takes place in your room at night (thanks Karakes )
• Fixed a bug that occurs when doing paperwork for Jessica, while also having plans to go out for lunch with Ashley or Cassandra.
• Fixed a bug that could occur during your movie date with Ashley.

RL problems - including a major hardware failure on my computer - delayed this update, but I think I made some good progress. The scenes involving the purchasable toys and costumes (Go to your room > Spend some time on your computer > Surf the internet > Shop online) have finally been added. I know a lot of you have been asking for them.

 

Quite a few people have expressed how difficult getting Emma to join you in the end is, so I've made a few modifications. It should be a little easier now. 

 

Other than that, I've spent some time on polish and bug fixes. Thanks everyone for the bug reports and suggestions!

And thanks again to all my Patrons! There'd be nothing without your support. I hope to have more art in the next update, so look forward to that!

I think this has been the longest time ever between updates, but v0.55 is finally here!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/update-devilish-28904033

 

Patch Notes:

• New art! Added two new sprites for Candace. Take her out to a nice dinner (with or without Cassandra) or on a weekend getaway to see it.

• Added images of Cassandra in a few places they were missing.

• Added a button in the "Preferences" menu to reset persistent progress (to change the main menu screen back as if it was your first playthrough).

• Added some signposts for Cassandra's path (thanks Madcap).

• Corrected some spelling errors.

• Fixed a bug that could trigger the winery event at the wrong time.

• Fixed a bug with the pricing of the toys (thanks Jared).
   

Finally some new art! I think you guys are really going to like this new stuff: two completely new sprites for Candace, including her first sex scene (not just nude). Your "first time" with Candace is particularly good with the new art but you'll also be able to see it when you take her out for supper and during certain scenes during the weekend getaway.

 

Other than the art, it's this update is mainly minor changes.

 

Thank you to all my Patrons for making this all possible! Without your monthly contributions there could be zero new art, so this is all thanks to you. Keep it coming and one day we'll have all the scenes you guys have been clamoring for (and more!)

Update: Devilish Business v0.56

 

Easy Mode and more with v0.56!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/29958581

 

Patch Notes:

• Added Easy Mode! (Thanks to otraos for the suggestion.)
• Added a whole new scene for Cassandra.
• Added a system that changes some endings, depending on your success with various girls.  (Thanks lordfridge9.) 
• Added some new minor ending scenes that make some endings clearer and sexier.
• Added some minor sound effects.
• Added and modified some content to make it more clear early on that PC is male.
• Modified the flirting system. (Thanks Demiare)
• Rewrote some of Ashley's dialogue.
• Rewrote some of Cassandra's dialogue.
• Fixed a bug in Nick's rumors. (Thanks Demiare)

Some interesting features in this update! The first is Easy Mode. Playing on Easy Mode will allow you to keep playing as long as you want; the game will not automatically end after 60 days. Easy Mode is available when starting a new game. When you're ready to get to the ending, just click on "Just enjoy the rest of your summer" when at home.

 

I added a new scene for Cassandra that is accessible after "the party". I hope you like it!

 

I've added a system for the game to give you a different ending with some girls if you sought after them specifically. Generally getting all of them at the end is a "win", but now there are some "winning" endings with a smaller harem.

 

I've also added a few sound effects for things like text messages and phone calls. They should highlight when something different it happening.

 

Flirting scenes should now progress more logically.

 

Other than that, mostly bug fixes and minor quality improvements.

 

Thanks for all your comments and suggestions. Without those Devilish Business would be a lot poorer.

Update: Devilish Business v0.61

 

Replay gallery and bug fixes!

 

https://www.patreon.com/posts/44646433

 

Patch Notes:

• Added a replay gallery, allowing you to replay many of the lewd scenes (once you've unlocked them).
• Fixed an issue which could cause you to miss the path to romancing Candace. (Thanks [USER=2106911]dokodesuka[/USER].)
• Fixed an issue that locked you into only experiencing Candace and Cassandra's FFM scene. (Thanks [USER=419535]Frank01[/USER].)

I hope you enjoy the new replay feature! You can currently replay most of the girls' lewd scenes once you've played the most risqué version of them. The replays do not currently extend to the endings, but if enough people want that, I could add it at a later date.
