Lab Rats 2 v0.15.0 Release

I don't know if you use any mods, but the one I've made has a gameplay tweak that reduces the severity of the arousal halving that happens as a result of girls being slutty. It should make most sex positions viable to get her to finish.

Though I can't say I would complain if you came up with a way to get more orgasms instead ;)

Petechons

Minor complaint: Due to changes made since the goals system was introduced, the "Ahegao" and "Plenty of Fish" goals really need to be nerfed.

Petechons

I hope it helps people who like to poke around the code understand what's going on. It's also massively helpful to me when I circle around back to a section I haven't touched for a month or two, so it's not entirely altruistic.

Vren

Working on that right now. I meant to get it finished up for the .0 release but it kept getting bumped to the bottom of the priority list.

Vren

Found and fixed!

Vren

Also found and fixed, thanks again!

Vren

Found and fixed the issue, thanks for the report!

Vren

It will be! That event and position is a test of some new code that lets girls take over while having sex. I'll need to write some more position descriptions for it before it'll have enough going on to be relevant all the time but that should get done for v0.16!

Vren

Found and fixed, thanks for posting this.

Nope, just me. Screwed up the maths on some of the serums.

Big fan of "cowgirl," but not into incest. So I look forward to it being a regular option in future versions!

Petechons

Positives: I like side effects. They incentivize me to have more than one research and be picky about what research I take. Also, it keeps Stephanie active and stops her from complaining about having no work to do. I like the new descriptions of traits as they are more transparent. The new events surrounding Lily and mom are interesting and add a personal relationship that a family should share(though maybe with less sex). Negatives: I might just be playing poorly or completely wrong, but obedience is impossible to maintain. Another thing is personal, but I find a lot of the girls unattractive. Not because of their face but just hair style. A hair salon or a way to change hair would be fantastic. Finally, I love the date mechanic. However, dates are dry and there is no way to scroll through girls' homes to find one after several girls, which would be very helpful if a girl is upset and about to quit. Some of the likes and dislikes are irrelevant(hiking and sports). Finally, there is no reason to create multiple outfits as most girls don't care about what they wear.

Kyle Kisiel

I'm not sure if it's just me, but even if I knock down the side effects from any serum, the recipients will take massive penalties to obedience, even if I have no serum that affects it.

Main feedback the early game is far too hard/grindy. Studying the serum's should raise the chance of positive side effects and lower the chance of negative ones rather than just lower the chance of side effects.

I havn't had a chance to play it yet, just look at the code, I love all the work you put into the documentation, for example the serum trait template. Its absolutely fantastic.

Im going to put that in myself as its been driving nuts

More info: presplash.png ( PC ) The presplash is shown before Ren'Py fully loads, before the main splashscreen starts. Don't use transparence in the image it will be rendered over black. It's especially important on Android, as the first time Ren'Py runs it will unpack supporting files, which make take some time. android-presplash.jpg ( ANDROID ) The image that's used when the app is loading. This should be surrounded by a monocolored border. That border is expanded to fill the screen.

Please put a "presplash.png" into your game folder. The game have a long start time ( ~20-30 sec ) so we can see that something going on.
