Happy Valentine’s Day (And Guest Outfit Poll Info!)

 

Happy Valentine’s Day, doods!

 

We hope you had an awesome day and made time to cozy up with the party guest of your choice. If you didn’t, thankfully there’s still this weekend to relax and enjoy the post-holiday vibes!

 

(Speaking of, if you haven’t played “A Vickie Vixen Valentine,” this weekend is a great time to try to schmooze your favorite House Party adult star!)

 

So, partiers, who was your House Party Valentine this year?

 

 

And if you haven’t seen it already, we have exciting news!

 

On Monday, our artist created some awesome concept images for an upcoming outfit that House Party’s next DLC guest will wear in her expansion pack!

 

This will be for her in-game “Casual Outfit.”

 

Our guest chose two favorite “outfit styles,” but she wanted to let our Patrons pick which final style and color option appears in-game!

 

(There are three color choices for each of the two outfit styles – for six total outfit options to vote on – and twenty votes have been cast so far!)

 

It’s been a while since we’ve had the opportunity to give Patrons access to development polls, but we’re super excited and can’t wait to see what outfit is chosen!

 

It’s always difficult as a small team to create and incorporate fun and meaningful polls for Patreon supporters during the busy development process, but this is something we want to get better about – especially for House Party’s future DLCs and Office Party!

 

So, with that said, all players can expect to see us asking for more feedback as we move through House Party and Office Party’s future development.

 

Expect to see more surveys like the “Holiday Feedback Form” out and about, so you can help tell us what you love about House Party (or what you wish House Party had) so we can make sure we’re keeping your feedback close and creating games you doods feel passionate about playing.

 

We are also stoked that our next guest has been so passionate about the House Party community and cares about your opinions so much that she wanted to let you choose her final outfit in the game! Cheers to her brahsomeness! We can’t wait for her to officially introduce herself to you soon.

 

Want to cast your vote on the outfit? Click here and support us in either our “Alpha Testers With Benefits” or “The Whole Shebang” Patreon tier!

 

Cheers to the next guest DLC, partiers! We can’t wait to share it with you!

 

(P.S. Did you spot anything interesting in the new trunk teaser?)

Update 1.0.9 is live with Quality of Life changes and Custom Story Creator improvements!

 

Create custom House Party stories easier with “CharacterGroups”, enjoy a new Spanish translation, and check out the new in-game teasers!

 

House Party Version 1.0.9 is out now! If you like getting creative with House Party, you’ll love the Custom Story Creator changes we made, doods and lady-doods.

 

Have you ever dreamed of making a party where everyone gets turned on as soon as you take off your shirt? Or where the whole party gangs up on Patrick? Or where all the guests meet up in the living room for a sweet no-pants-allowed dance party?

 

Yeah. You can do all that and much more way, way easier now, because we added an awesome new feature called “CharacterGroup” behaviors. These let you work faster and more effectively to create more complex stories than ever before. 

 

 

How does it work? You can now create targeted groups of Characters and use GameEvent, Criteria, Event Trigger, and/or CriteriaGroup behaviors on them selectively or en masse. Not all GameEvents and Criteria are available for use with this system, but this should be super cool nonetheless!

 

If you’ve worked with the Custom Story Creator before, you already know how difficult it was to send mass instructions to characters – but you no longer have to send one-on-one instructions to them. This is huge, dudes!

 

Character groups should allow there to be more varied custom stories made by both new and experienced creators alike. We’re stoked to see how you guys use this sweet new story-crafting superpower.

 

 

Several previous issues regarding past updates breaking custom stories have also been fixed, so your current stories should work as intended again! We’ve made significant optimizations that will notably reduce the UI “lag” experienced when manipulating many CSC elements, dropdowns, text fields, and so on, too.

 

(Note: The new optimizations required minor changes to the CSC UI. Some functionalities like sorting/arranging elements are now controlled strictly through user-interactable elements like arrows, the copy/paste functions, and insert/remove.)

 

 

Update 1.0.9 also irons out some bugs (some of which were not just minor annoyances), adds some story and engine improvements, and includes a fresh new Spanish translation!

 

We’ve continued making progress on the user interface and functionality for selecting a holiday DLC pack, too. We still have more mechanics to work on before we can tie DLCs into the engine and bundle the Winter and Halloween holidays into individual downloadable packs, but we’re making good progress!

 

Plus, we added those two new objects around the party that will be used in our next guest expansion pack! If you want a sneak peek at what’s to come, explore the house and let us know what you think the new fixtures will be used for!

 

Have fun playing, party brahs! We can’t wait to see your custom stories.

 

P.S. Want an example of the fun and silly stories you can create with House Party’s Custom Story Creator? Check out this quick video taken from Peter980’s “Fiery Date” story! To learn more about the story or hang out for our House Party dev streams, join our Discord!

The party is getting darker this summer. Get ready, doods!

 

The sexy and hilarious party you know and love will flirt with a bit of blood and darkness this Summer. Are you ready, doods?

Our next guest will ramp up the party with the wildest explicit intimacy thus far and most jaw-dropping story yet!

Get ready for Summer 2023, partiers.

 

Not only that, but a new quality of life House Party update will be dropping soon, doods! We’re making good progress on some not-so-minor requested bug fixes as well as working on some major Custom Story improvements we hope you’ll love!

But there’s some neat little bonus easter eggs in the next update, too. While you run around Madison’s place during your typical night of shenanigans and debauchery, you’ll notice two new objects in the game.

Take a peek at one of them below. Wondering about the other one? Well, you’ll have to find it yourselves…

 

(Note: This is early teaser footage and does not fully reflect how the item appears in-game. Anyway, it looks like there might be some electrical issues in the next guest DLC, right? What do you think’s going on here?)

 

This new item will be put to use in the upcoming guest DLC arriving this Summer 2023.

We see many of you asking who the next guest will be. We’re not trying to keep any secrets (check out those leg tattoos!), but our special guest wants to introduce herself to you personally with a custom costume.

She’s working on it now, so we hope you’re stoked for the official announcement and title reveal in March!

 

 

In the meantime, don’t forget to wishlist the free Halloween and Winter Holiday Packs!

The packs will allow you to enjoy the Halloween and Winter seasonal events whenever you want year-round. We’re still working on getting the toggle on/off feature ready, making some tweaks, and packaging everything into organized DLCs. They’ll both be ready within the next few months (ETA of Q1 2023 for Halloween and Q2 2023 for Winter)!

We know these holiday packs are coming out at kind of odd times of the year now. We didn’t expect to prep them for permanency and add the toggle feature, but we hope you’re still glad we listened to your requests to toggle the content and for the limited-time events to come back permanently!

 

 

Wishlist the Winter Holiday Pack on Steam, the Epic Games Store, or GOG!

Thanks again to everyone who loved House Party’s limited-time event and asked for it to become permanent! We were blown away by how much love you doods had for the seasonal update we added, and we’re happy to officially say that House Party’s spooky season will be returning permanently!

 

As promised, we will also be adding a toggle on/off feature for the holiday content, so you’ll be able to turn off the Halloween event in-game without having to uninstall or redownload your DLC! Our team is working hard on finalizing this feature and it’s looking like we should move into internal private beta testing for it in early 2023!

 

This feature should make it super convenient for all of you to manage your seasonal DLC in a straightforward visual selection screen within the Main Menu of the game, so we hope you’ll really like it!
