A High Stakes Game v1.993 **Updated 12-10-2021**

[Erecant]

Dude, I was looking at the timestamps of historical versions (full history in OP for those curious) It's been like 6 years since this all started. It's been a wild ride, with highs and lows and lots and lots of me being a lazy fuck.

Would totally do it all over again. Maybe with better planning, however.

Are we supposed to win the newest Progress game, i would say i have pretty good stats but i just cant escape Eva before the times is up

[ryanshowseason3]

Stuck at the start of the second acct.

I forget how to trigger the next progress game. Eva just tells me she wants to spend more time before doing something dangerous.

I keep playing games and going on dates but no progress game to be found!

Happy to see the game continuing, this ones still one of my favourites on the site.

That said I have a little issue currently, when/how does the game decide who's in charge of the foreplay?

Spoiler: show

I'm trying to get the UB scene unlocked but...

I had Eva in charge over 20 times now. Tried some savescumming but sometimes just went with it and retried from scratch but the result remains the same.

@Alianda,

There is a bit of a trick to the new scene. A success this time may seem a little different from previous games. I'm trying to let people muddle through for now, but I'll start to explain things later this weekend if people continue to have problems.

@ryanshowseason3,

Looking back, it looks like the requirements for the next progress scene, the one with Gwen, are: 20 Affection gained from the end of the last progress game, have seen and unlocked the sex scene, which is gated behind running into Zoey and going on dates for a bit.

@somhtam,

That is based on a check that takes Affection into account, The higher your Affection the more likely Eva is to take the lead. You may want to dump a bit of Affection to manipulate the odds.

Oh shit, thanks. I really overdid it with the affection grind earlier.

[stranger2005]

Will there be any additional content added with Zoey? She's my favourite.

[Erecant]

For now, the plans are to finish up the main story of the game. The next update will be the endings/epilogues. After that I have plans to flesh out some side content down the line, including Zoey, Sandy, and Gwen content, but how that shapes up and how it will look will depend on a few other irons I have in the fire at the moment.

So, in short, Eventually, probably, we will see more of Zoey and Co, but I can't really give any estimate as to when or how that will play out.

how can you win the proposal game, I've tried multiple times now and failed in a variety of ways but haven't figured out what I need to do to win.

[Erecant]

Hmm, I suppose it's been long enough for a few hints.

1: This game may not be quite like the others. Winning may not be found in simply escaping.

2: You need to put in sufficient effort to show Eva you're serious.

3: Too much stimulation may pull out some of Eva's more aggressive instincts.

That should maybe help a bit in finding the good ends to the scene. I should note there are 5 endings to the scene, 2 of which will be a 'good' end, 2 'bad' ends, and 1 a 'try again later'.

I enjoyed this game so much!
I'm glad it well get a proper ending
Thank you for your continued hard work Erecant!

There are so many endings I'd like to see…
Like that potion that Gwen keeps mentioning, to digest Alex into Eva’s clit.
Or a VP oriented one.

New update!! <3
Thank you!
I love this game so much and it's awesome to see more stuff being added.

Anyone here might be able to upload their savegame? I've lost mine and whilst I love the game I'd quite like to be able to try the new scene without having to redo the whole game

I recommend cheat engine. I've had a hard drive( or three ) go poof in between now and when this game first came out.

In the past just gave myself the xp and affection required to get back where I was before.

You just have to remember that rpg maker integer values are needlessly offset. Any value is (x*2) + 1

Hey Everyone!
1 new optional scene with Gwen, unlocked if you have 5 Empathy and Sandy previously told you to go visit Gwen sometime, and 1 new progress game, which can be accessed through the normal menu like previous progress games.

Been away from this project a while.

When does Sandy tell you to go visit gwen? Can you encounter her outside her progress scene?

Also the 1 new progress game is the proposal right? Over after that?

[Erecant]

Sandy tells you to go visit Gwen at the end of her scene, she is not encounterable outside of that. The flag for unlocking the scene was present when Sandy was first introduced, so no need to worry about missing it, assuming you cleared it with 3 Empathy way back when.

And yes, there is the proposal and the side story narrative dump that you get from Gwen and that's it for this release.

--Erecant

[ryanshowseason3]

So you had to have the empathy when clearing Sandy to unlock?

[Appo]

So you had to have the empathy when clearing Sandy to unlock?

That's the case. You need 3 for Sandy then 5 to speak to Gwen.

[ryanshowseason3]

Wait what is empathy?

Is it Gwen Favor?

I had 5 going into Sandy, no mention from sandy to visit Gwen...

[Erecant]

Empathy is actually a new stat that was introduced a ways back. You get it from an optional side scene with Gwen. iirc the conditions to unlock the scene are to finish a regular Gwen game with like 10 Gwen favor (total lifetime earned, not current stock) and 50 or so affection.

Late to the party as usual.
Excellent addition to the story.
Quality takes time, no rush.
Looking forward to the ending and the flushing out of the side characters.
