Hey folks!
Thanks for following the development of our game, Under(her)tail: Love and Lust!
I have a few updates to share for the game’s progress…
- Making our vision clear: what’s this game about?
- Deadline for Ruins demo: March 2023
- TWO new music tracks: Ruins theme (Loved and Lost) and battle theme (Down and Dirty)
- Art/Writing feature: Peddles the Flower
…As well as updates for the server itself:
- We are now the official Under(her)tail server, with TheWill’s blessing
- Monsters of the Month contest officially on hold until further notice
Making our vision clear: what’s this game about?
Under(her)tail: Love and Lust intends to build on the structure of the original Undertale, with new and interesting changes on top:
- Linear - You start in a flower bed and keep walking from there.
- Interesting Enemies, Not Random Encounters - Met in a specific order and place. Usually has some buildup, may include follow-up interaction outside of Encounters. Has enough depth to be believable but not too much to be relevant outside of their Encounters.
- Story and Structure Closer to UT… - By keeping the major plot beats similar to the original game, that’s less heavy lifting for writing on our part…
- …With A Few Twists - However, we’ll be bringing changes to the world and story that will shake things up a bit!
Here are some of the keywords that the game uses, and their meaning:
- Encounters - Term for battles in the game, which are initiated by monsters consenting to sex.
- To end an Encounter, monsters must either be Pleased or Mindblown.
- The player’s consent is decided through their actions: they can choose whether or not to engage with a monster sexually with FUN, ACT, and choosing to either Fuck or Leave.
- FUN - Equivalent of FIGHT, where player sexually stimulates monster and fills up a meter. Once this meter is full, a sex scene occurs immediately after.
