More v0.7 Progress

I've got a few idea's kicking around, and a few with prototypes in various stages. I find it fun to code and tinker with them, and think about what works and what doesn't. I'm certainly not thinking about retiring yet though. For now there's still a good chunk of content I want to add to Lab Rats in the form of "tags", which will be introduced in the next update. These are attributes you can train specifically on a girl that either speed up a specific scene or unlock new scenes entirely.

I've got a few prototypes kicking around already. I find it fun to spend a few hours and code something up, thinker with it, and see what I like about it. Once I'm certain I know which direction I'll be taking I'll let you guys know (and probably put the prototype up as a patron reward). There's still plenty I want to do with Lab Rats before I'm ready to move on, and there will probably be a period where I'm working on content for Lab Rats along side the prototype for my next project.

Personally I'd be fine with some gap time that's spent brainstorming on next project. Takes some time to try out various ideas and get an initial prototype going.

Vren has expressed several ideas which will take time to implement in game. Even after Lab Rats is 'finished', he might still want to expand on it for some time. Anyway, if he's anything like me, he has plenty of plans in the works. He'll let us know when he's ready to move on. But I'm very happy with what we've forgoing so far.

Wonderful, i wait on it

So with 0.7 near I feel I have to ask what your plans on next? Traditionally (and as you put it in another post) 1.0 is the competition of the game as originally intended/design by the creator with any further additions like 1.1 or 1.2 being add-ons or bug fixes. Now obviously you can go on further if you would like but at some point Lab Rats is going to be finished which is why I feel now is the time to ask this important question. What comes next? You currently sit at close to 2K in funding which is.....ok. It's not the greatest number for a creator with his game almost finished however several adult game creators have seen further spikes in pledges once they start work on their second game. After all having one fully complete game under your belt raises people's confidence in you and is a good sign that you don't abandon your projects. Of course you could always choose to retire. If making Lab Rats was the only game you were interested in then retiring makes sense and no one would think any less of you. If you don't want to retire though now is the time to start brain storming ideas for the next game. Do you want to experiment with a completely new gameplay style or do you want to keep the style you have with Lab Rats and build upon it further, to better perfect it? Do you want to change genres? What new settings or characters can you think of? And most importantly of all, how is this game different from Lab Rats.
