With Tomie and titties! Whoo! Sorry, we've been making good progress and we're a little excited. The December poll was rigged, so you could really only pick Tomie, but we decided it would sneakily be not-rigged. Which is to say, the most chosen answer would decide how much we would show. Fortunately, "Tomie <3" won out, so you get the good stuff. You're welcome.
So here we have Tomie blowing a kiss:
Tomie teasing the player with her boobs:
Lastly, Tomie using a makeout attack in her topless phase:
You may recall we mentioned in the past that the art would get sexier as you progress through the 3 Stages for each character. That's still Stage 1. It only gets spicier from there and we can't wait for you all to see the rest when the game releases.
Since it's the start of a new year, we thought it might be a good idea to pull up the entire 'roadmap' again that we brought up a couple months ago. We've also been testing and polishing the already finished parts. That may not sound very exciting, but it's been a great joy for us to have enough of a game built that there's a point to testing and fixing it. Maybe we're just being massive nerds, but finding bugs and fixing them feels good. As you look through the roadmap, pay special attention to one important fact: the game design elements are nearly all finished and programmed. At this point, we're mostly focusing on art and music while continually testing, tweaking and bug fixing the core game. We're hopeful that DommeBreaker will come out this year. You know, barring unforeseen disasters. Haha. We wouldn't have another global disaster this year, right? ... right?
Oh, and I'm just sliding the poll in here, so people don't overlook it at the bottom.
Durak NTR, our new hentai game, has released on Steam! Dive into your NTR obession, lose your girlfriend to the superior alpha male and don't touch yourself while playing like an obedient cuck.
Yeah, I know. You're wondering how we're not even close to done after a year of working on this game. Brother/Sister, we're as confused as you are, but mostly we're confused that 12 months went by so quickly. Our initial hope was to release DommeBreaker by the end of this year. Good thing we never mentioned that...
Anyway, this month you voted for information about our business model and release DLC. Well, we have some good news that you may have already seen on the DommeBreaker store page: the base game will be free! "But what constitutes the base game? Especially considering you're telling us there will be DLC on release," I don't hear you ask, because this was written in advance. Allow us to clarify:
The base game will include everything we've shown so far involving Stacy, Hannah, Tomie, Jitsuko and Emily.
The base game will be a complete experience with a setup, middle and ending to the story. So far, every post has been about the base game.
Future Community posts featuring DLC content will be clearly labeled as such.
Why did we choose to make the base game free? To get as many people as possible to try the game out.
How do we plan to make money?
Basically, we have a lot of ideas for self-contained bits of DLC focusing on various specific kinks and fetishes. However, not everybody will be into every type of DLC. We decided the best option was to try to make DLC self-contained, so that players can get just the content they're interested in, without feeling like they need to go buy and play through content that doesn't appeal to them. Think of it as 'a la carte' smut. The base game is the free taste we hope will get you hooked and that will setup the characters/setting for DLC.
So what's going to be the release DLC?
We'll have a digital artbook featuring not only the finished works, but also unused sketches, some notes and behind-the-scenes looks into some of the choices we made during development.
We'll release the first self-contained bit of DLC featuring Shizuru from Femdom Lines. We won't get into details about her DLC yet, but it should come as no surprise that it'll be CBT themed.
As for how exactly DLC will work content-wise, that's going to take an entire future Community post to explain, because we have various types of content in mind. For now, we wish you a happy and sexy new year! Of course, let's not forget the Roadmap update for December:
FINISHED:
Richard's theme
Emily Victory Scenes 2+3
Player upgrades design
Player abilities design (still needs late-game balancing)
Rewrites and script fixes for Emily Victory Scenes 2+3 and Tomie Combat 1
Testing Tutorial and Emily 1 balance
CURRENTLY WORKING ON:
Main Menu theme
Tomie Combat art Stages 2+3
Emily Combat Stages 2+3 balancing
Ending Sequence writing
Oh, yeah. The poll for next month! That's right, it's a fake poll. We recently got the Tomie Stage 1 combat art and you need to see it. I didn't even discuss this with Zee. I'm literally deciding this as I write the Community post. We'll resume actual polls next month.
Happy holidays! Whatever you celebrate, or if you don't celebrate anything at all, we hope you're having a great December.
If you've been following our monthly Community posts, you'll remember that we mentioned two smaller projects in the works during November. Well, they're ready! Almost. The store pages are ready and we're ready to announce them. Whoo!
The first project is new dlc for Femdom Waifu, because you know we can't stop adding more hotness to Tomie. This time around, it's shoes and boots. We already did a foot fetish pack years ago, but sometimes you don't want hosiery. Sometimes you want that shiny, latex boot. Or the shoes that complete a look.
Whether you prefer to be controlled by Tomie in her latex outfits, nurse cosplay, schoolgirl costume or bikinis, there's something in this dlc to complete the look. It's releasing December 28th, so you can use the Steam gift card your grandma got you for Christmas (even though she's not sure what it is) to start 2024 with a new spin on your goon sessions.
Then there's the second project, which will be releasing in mid January. Do you like card games, NTR and being humiliated? Probably or you wouldn't be here. Check out "Durak NTR: the Fool who lost his gf in a card game" when it comes out in a couple of weeks.
You might be thinking to yourself that you'll be too broke for new smut games after the holidays. Well, good news! Durak NTR is free, with optional dlc that adds 3 alternative girls to break your heart in delightfully sinful ways.
Wishlist them now and look forward to the December community update for DommeBreaker. We're still hard at work, holidays or no, to bring you deliciously sinful content in the new year.
It's the monthly DommeBreaker update and have, to be honest, very little to show for this month. However! That does not mean we haven't been busy. We just spent most of this month on two other, small projects. Both will be officially announced in their own upcomings posts in the near future.
Of course, we keep our promises around these parts, so it's time for the outfit progression preview we promise. You guys voted for Tomie, so here is Stage 1 as reminder:
And the promise Stage 2:
Oh, what the hell. Have a censored version of Stage 3, because it's pretty much the holiday season and our next update will be after Christmas:
So what progress did we actually make on the roadmap?
- Emily Victory Scene 2 sketches - Player abilities concepting (no values yet)
Maybe it'll help, if I mention the Emily sketches includde a zoomed in foot cam? Thought so ;)
This month, we're going to explain how Dominance Battles will work in DommeBreaker. To illustrate this, we'll be using a screenshot of Emily at Stage 1/Phase 1, which is to say her very first fight. Let's go over the UI step by step:
Action view. This is where the player sees what the Domme is currently doing to Michael/the player. Each Phase will change the base pose and each attack will have a different art associated with it.
Stamina Counter. Stamina is used to perform actions in battle. Normally, Michael recovers 3 Stamina per turn and can have a maximum of 5.
Ability Grid. Here are the abilities Michael has available to him in the fight. Of the 9 abilities the player sets in their grid, only a certain number will be available each turn and those are randomly selected. To begin with, the player will have 5 of their 9 abilities available each turn.
Domme Ability Tracker. After the player chooses to end their turn, the Domme will perform the actions listed here. The effect of those actions and the time they take are also listed, allowing players to strategize around their opponent.
A Player Orgasm Meter/HP. If the Domme gets Michael to orgasm, the battle is over and the player loses.
Timer. In order to win, the player must hold out long enough against the Domme to make her give up. Resist and counter their abilities, plan the Breaks for maximum effect, keep an eye on your health and you just might be able to make it to the end.
Both the player and Domme will have abilities available in combat with additional effects, like (de)buffs, shields and DoTs. Each of the 3 Dommes in the starting cast will have a different style of combat that the player will have to learn to deal with.
You heard me right: starting cast. We have plans to bring back more girls and create new ones specifically for DommeBreaker, along with plans to expand the mechanics with new combat styles for those future characters. We'll go into more detail another time, since our DLC plans will require their own Community post, but we intend for the release of DommeBreaker to be the start of this journey rather than the end. Hopefully you'll join us and be as excited as we are.
To finish off this Months Community post, here is the update to the roadmap:
FINISHED: Jitsuko combat design and texts Emily Victory Scene sketches Map Theme
CURRENT: Player upgrades Player combat abilities Finishing Emily Victory Scenes Ending writing
And, of course, the Twitter/X poll. Next month, we'll show off Stage 2 for one of the girls. Throughout the 3 Stages, their outfits will get progressively sexier. Stage 2 is still mostly covered, but we want to find out which one you're most excited to see. Think of this as a little market research regarding their relative popularity now that the new designs have been unveiled.
Jitsuko is back! And her ambitions have grown from merely having an army of typing slaves to an actual, hierarchical Queendom. With her at the top, obviously. Good boys can work their way up, but she's not easy to please and she'll demand everything from you. Of course, good boys willingly give whatever they can to their Queen, so Jitsuko is well on her way to establishing her own little slice of Heaven on Earth. Or Hell, depending on your perspective.
It helps that her art got an amazing update, as seen here.
There are layers to Jitsuko, her appearance and her dream nation of complete subservience to her Queenly perfection. We're certain you'll enjoy discovering what Jitsuko has in store for you.
As for next month, go vote now on what you're more excited to learn about in the twitter poll.
But wait! There's more! We've been asked repeatedly just how close to (or far from) completion DommeBreaker actually is. Although we don't have a fancy Roadmap with deadlines and still don't have an answer for when we'll be done, we did make a list for ourselves to keep track of our priorities. We'll update this each month with what has been accomplished and what we're working on, but here's the whole thing.
This month, as voted for in the Twitter poll, we will be giving you all a quick rundown of the general game flow. We'll also use this to clarify a question that's come up in the comments, in DMs and emails: "The description makes it sound like the women are going to be the submissive ones this time around. Is DommeBreaker still about Femdom?" Yes, it most certainly is. But let's start from the beginning.
The game will start with an intro scene and Dominance Battle tutorial, which will also serve as the introduction for the two male characters: Michael and Richard. Michael is the bull character visible in the Store page art, surrounded by the lovely ladies. Richard is the utterly degenerate cuck husband of Hannah who's so desperately addicted to Femdom that he can't help spending his money on several other Dommes. The crux of the story is Michael being tasked by Hannah to convince the 3 other Dommes (Emily, Jitsuko and Tomie) to stop burning through Richard's savings.
Afterwards, Stacy gets introduced as the upgrade girl and the player enters the main portion of the game where they have the freedom to choose which character to interact with. We've shown off the map art before, but here it is again for clarity's sake:
Each of those locations will have a set chance for one of the women to show up there per day. The more they can spend there, the less likely it is. This creates a slightly randomized time limit for the game. Per day, the player can choose several actions when interacting with any of the 3 women. Obviously, this includes initiating a Dominance Battle, but there are other options we won't be spoiling yet.
As the player engages in (and ultimately wins) Dominance Battles, the individual Domme he has beaten will progress a Stage. They each start at Stage 1 and go up to 3. At each subsequent Stage, their outfit, their combat, their interaction options and their dialogue become more sexual. But that's not all! After every Dominance Battle victory, you will be treated to a sexy scene from the perspective of Richard. That's right, the consequences of your actions as the bull will be viewed through the lens of the cuck as he shamelessly reflects your own perverted thoughts and desires.
Once the player has defeated all 3 women in their Stage 3 Dominance Battle, the game and story will come to their conclusion, but we're not going to give that away just yet. What we will be revealing right now is some of the background art for the various locations, because our artist has been killing it:
Lastly, there is of course the Twitter (or "X" if you insist) poll for next month!
Obviously we were gonna bring back our main girl, Tomie, for our next big project. How could we not? You love her, we love her and the artist got her looking so good. Although we're only going to reveal her basic outfit for now.
Of course she's going to be as bitchy and sadistic as you remember her, but her horny side will also be very present. In DommeBreaker we'll also give you a glimps into how Tomie became such a deliciously cruel beta ruiner. Her content is honestly a joy to work on and we're confident you'll enjoy her combat, her story scenes and her bratty attitude.
Now this brings us to the Twitter poll for next month. Since we're alternating between sexy and informative posts, the two options this month might not be as drool worthy, but they're definitely useful to know. Do you guys want an explanation of the combat system or would you prefer to learn more about the general game flow and goals?
Ever wanted to feel in charge? Wanted to know what it's like to have a beautiful woman call you master? Of course you've thought about it, but now Ember will finally fulfill that dream. Albeit in her own sadistic way.
