Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold - Devilish Domina
After two hard years of squeezing sexy game development in around real-life responsibilities, we are proud to bring you the Early Access release of our Full Game Play Loop.

This release showcases the intent of Dominatrix Simulator as a game that gives players license to explore their kinks with their favorite Mistresses and triples the available content.

We can't think of a better way to celebrate this release than by dressing up our Mistresses for our favorite spooky holiday (costumes in game until Nov 10)!

How the Full Loop Works

After completing the tutorial, players can choose the Mistress they want to visit and enter her "Hub". In the hub, you will be greeted and asked why you are visiting her.

Depending on how you answer, a task, punishment, or reward scene will begin. When you complete a task, you will be given either a punishment or reward based on your performance. You should always have to pay off punishments before you can receive a reward, but if you're not ready to be punished, you can still do a task.

Placeholder Content



All of the content previously available only to Patrons is now included, as well as placeholder scenes for unfinished content.

Placeholder content includes temporary rooms, placeholder silhouettes for Mistresses, subtitles in place of dialog, and the ability to answer yes / no to simulate how you performed in a scene. These are in place to demonstrate how the full gameplay loop works and that the underlying code is working the way it should.

New Scenes

A series of new repeatable scenes have been introduced, allowing you to truly experience what it feels like to be trained to perform, rewarded for doing a good job, and punished for displeasing a Mistress. Several of these scenes get progressively harder as you play them, truly challenging how well you can obey!

- Headmistress - Hand Signal Training (high protocol)
- Mistress Nega-Yuki - Reward Edging (humiliation, foot worship) & Teasing (crotch worship)
- Mistress Yuki-Onna - Puppy Play Training, Spanking, Milking (pet play)

Save/Load

To continue your progress between play sessions and keep those Obsidians and Bloodstones you have yet to spend, your game will now automatically save. There are profile slots in the journal if you want to start a new game from scratch. (Look for the bookmark with the 'save' icon on it.)

This is a new system, so be sure to let us know if you find any quirks with it!

Preview New Mistresses

And finally, all nine Mistresses for the full game are represented here in their various states of completion and you'll find hints as to what the Mistresses yet to be released might be like.

Here are all the things you can find in this release:

New Content

  • Alternate Ending - Resist being naughty with Mistress Nega Yuki. Give your Bloodstone to the Headmistress instead. The Goddess will be pleased!
  • Extended Scene - Give in to Mistress Nega Yuki's temptations, be naughty, and get forcibly used before the Goddess interrupts to chastise you. She's so disappointed!

Game Polish

  • Unlock Scene Shortcuts - As you play, you will unlock scene short cuts in your journal. These will enable you to quickly and easily revisit your favorite scenes.
  • New Animations - We've introduced over 40 new animations to help give our Mistresses more range of motion as they put you through your paces.
  • New Emotion System - See how the Mistresses really feel about your behaviour and watch the expressions play across their faces.
  • New Intro and Outro - We've added our newest character, Miss Treatment, to welcome you to the game and check in on you when you're finished. Based on my very own Devilish Domina avatar, she's a cute, red-skinned devil girl who really wants you to take care of you. She's featured in our stand-alone experience, DomSim: Therapeutic Domming, for now, but expect to see even more of her in the future!
  • Headmistress' Theatre - Updates to the layout, lighting, wall art, and adding randomized locations to crowd comments to ensure you feel properly objectified!

Language Support

We've added support for 10 different languages other than English, which includes UI/UX, as well as dialogue: German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, and Chinese (Simplified).

And we're investigating how we can improve these with human translation, over time.

Bug Fixes and Enhancements

  • Subtitles - Movement, display and size have been improved.
  • Audio leveling - We've addressed some issues with VO lines playing softer or louder than others.
  • Skinning, Clipping, and Glitches - A number of these have been cleaned up and fixed.
  • Hand movement - We've fixed some issues with where the VR hands move when getting into pose positions.
  • Keyboard and Mouse - functionality should be improved when you go to take positions.

What's Next
Our next big focus will be setting up the base hub system that will allow you to visit the Mistresses to receive tasks, punishments, and rewards. Yay!! Given that we are still building out content, this means you'll run into placeholders for some things, which we'll share more about as we get closer to releasing it!

As always, let us know what you think, what bugs or issues you're still encountering, and what else you'd like to see put into the game!!

Mine truly,

Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold - Devilish Domina
Last month, we were premature in announcing that we were ready to go to Full Release on Steam - the point at which a game exits Early Release and is re-launched on the store as a complete product.

We actually wrote about this in our last post titled 'Happy Valentine's Day!!', but thought we needed to be a little more clear what's going on.

As we always do, we listened to our fans who asked for more content, better replayable options, and how to know more clearly when the 'experience' is over.

What is available in the store today:
The current build is a stand-alone experience that introduces you to the Goddess, three other Mistresses, and ends with the player having a second encounter with the Goddess. The gameplay is linear and guides you through how to interact with the characters, respond to commands, and use punishment and reward tokens.

What we are adding while the game is still in Early Access:
We are expanding on this build to add in a forced sex reward scene with Mistress Nega Yuki (a scene previously ONLY available to Patrons) and we are adding an alternate ending with the Headmistress that has never been seen before. Players will soon have the choice to spend their reward with Mistress Nega or decline and redeem it with the Headmistress instead. The final encounter with the Goddess will also change depending on the choice you make.

We are also adding in an emotion system for the Mistress's expressions and improved animations.

When we will leave Early Access:
The Threshold 'experience' will stay in Early Access until we are satisfied that the content is complete, polished, and provides players with the experience they have been looking forward to.

Why we've decided to release future content as separate titles/modules/releases:
As a small dev team of two working part-time around full-time jobs and family, we have dedicated the last 18 months to building a solid foundation for an entire new game world, which is showcased in this standalone polished, game 'experience'.

We want to create more!! More content, more story, and more Mistresses!

To do this, we had to make the hard choice to start generating more funding support than what we could achieve through Patreon alone.

By choosing to break our larger vision of a full game into complete, stand-alone experiences that will eventually be hooked up together into an integrated game and released on Steam, we are taking a risk with our fans and the larger Steam community. It's a risk that we hope you'll support us in taking as we release polished content for you to enjoy while also generating the funding necessary for one of us to begin working on the DomSim world full-time.

We know this is an unconventional approach and we have to ensure that what we release in this 'experience' and future experiences is worth your time and money!

And if you're ever unsatisfied, please, please, please take full advantage of Steam's refund policy!!

How you can help.
If you love what we are making and want to help, then we can use your assistance! Here are a few ways you can do that:
  1. Post a review! Let people know what you love about it! This will help others find is and try it and help us spread the word.
  2. Join in on the discussion on Discord! Let us know what you think, share your ideas, and discuss the endless possibilities with us.
  3. Support us on Patreon! Get access to preview and playtest builds and follow along with more detailed development posts.
Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold - Devilish Domina
We've listened to our fans and we've decided to add more new content to Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold before going into full release.

Games exit early access and go to full release on Steam when they are finished with their content and features, but we've decided we're not ready yet.

New content will include an alternate ending, a masturbation JOI scene, improved animations, and facial expressions for our Mistresses.

The best part is that if you've already purchased our game, you get these improvements for FREE when they come out. Just keep the game downloaded and in your library.

If you're just discovering Dominatrix Simulator, these upcoming features are not in the game yet, but you can still get them by either buying the game now and waiting for the updates or just adding us to your wishlist. If we're on your wishlist, you'll find out when our new content is released.

If you love our game, please consider leaving a review. When we started charging, Steam reset all our review ratings. So, while the reviews are still there, the rating score is gone.

Thank you all for your ongoing community engagement and support!

Thank you all so much for following our early release development process and for your interest in our game!!

Full Release on Steam coming soon!
Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold - Devilish Domina
It’s been almost a year since we’ve updated our early release content here on Steam, so we’re really excited to share that we are about to put out a new update - the complete tutorial and introduction to the Dominatrix Simulator game!

2019 was a tricky year for us, development wise, as real life kept intruding on our ability to make progress on the game, but we persevered! We’re proud of what we’ve put together, not just from a game design and player experience perspective, but also in terms of a unique world of art and music.

The upcoming release completes our tutorial and introduces you to Mistress Nega Yuki, our cruel and selfish hedonist!


You’ll also meet our new Goddess - a much more regal and imposing figure designed by our Lead Artist, Just Jeff.


We’ll share more about what’s in the release when it’s ready to launch. In the meantime, here’s a sneak peak of all our new environments!

Enjoy the eye candy feast we have for you!

Much Love,

deviant.tech

PS: We need to take a minute to give a huge shout out of thanks to our amazing community of Patrons who've been supporting us over the last year. All of the funds donated have entirely funded the new art and music, making this game now uniquely Threshold House!

Those same amazing Patrons are currently playtesting the latest build, helping make sure we get the final kinks out. xx











Dominatrix Simulator: Threshold - DeviantDev
Hello, all you naughty little kinksters,

It's been a while, so we have lots to share! First of all, we can't thank you enough for your interest in Dominatrix Simulator! All your enthusiasm and positive feedback inspires us to be that much more naughty and creative for your virtual pleasure.

Art Updates

One of the greatest challenges we had when we first started was finding an artist who could bring the lewd world of the Dominatrix Simulator to life through the environments and characters that inhabit the House. We are so so excited to have found an excellent professional artist who does just that! With their help, we are refreshing the game with all new custom environments, some of which you'll see if you try the new puppy playtest build.

All the new art is entirely funded thanks to amazing fans like you who support us on Patreon. The community's support and encouragement have enabled us to bring our debaucherous and surreal vision to life and we think you'll really enjoy the results.

Puppy Playtesting

Speaking of results, we are in our final stages of playtesting brand new content for Dominatrix Simulator. Mistress Yuki-Onna absolutely loves puppies and is super-excited to train you to be her perfect little pet! In this playtest, she'll patiently teach you all the commands good puppies should follow, test you on them, and then praise you or chastise you based on your performance.

This collection of scenes represents our first foray into tasks for the player and introduces several new features and environmental art.

We will release this content publicly as a part of the full experience on Steam once it is ready, but in the meantime, if you want to get a taste of what being Yuki's good little puppy feels like, you can access the playtest as a Patreon supporter here:

New Features


Dual-Pose Recognition

To allow you to answer Mistress Yuki-Onna with your paws as a good little puppy should, we've updated pose recognition to differentiate between more than one pose at a time. Since puppies can't speak, you now can raise one paw for 'yes' and another paw for 'no'!

This feature will give you more ways to communicate with all Mistresses in the future and allow for much more dynamic in-game interactions!

Behavioral Conditioning

The puppy play scenes in this test build are all about learning to properly act like a puppy. It is built on the concept of slave training and introduces a series of poses over time that the player can learn, practice, and even get tested on! The content gets progressively more challenging over time.

As humans, we have the most fun when learning. As it turns out, so do puppies and slaves! Feel a sense of accomplishment and pride as you build skills over time and are increasingly challenged by the Mistresses. But beware! The better you do, the harder you'll get. 😘

Again, thank you so so much for your patience and support. Thanks to you, we continue to work towards that supremely immersive and deliciously kinky experience that, let's be honest, we've all been searching for.

Mine truly,
Devilish Domina 💋
