v0.16.1 Supporter Release

It's mid-month update time, and v0.16.1 is now up for Patrons! This release primarily focuses on advancing the Seedcarrier's plotline, with a fair amount of new smut. I then spent the rest of the cycle working on quality of life improvements, with a particular focus on some new game options. For the rest of the month, I'll be returning to content with some new Harian and Seeder plotline scenes! For more info, you can check out the Patreon post here, or the patch notes below:

v0.16.1 Change Log

  • The game now tracks if you've used a cheat code 'recently'. The cheat code prompt will not reappear when re-opening Options if you've used it once, and this is tracked in save files. However, it is reset when loading a save from a different version of the game.
  • Cheat code option added for advancing all scene timers to immediately allow the scenes. If you're currently in a 'hub' scene, you will need to exit and re-enter it to see if scenes have been unlocked.

v0.14.1 Supporter Release

Evening all, it'd mid-month update time! There's admittedly little playable content in this update, as I've been working on the foundational work for the next two factions. Assets have been prepped and added to the game for Happee Co (space goblins) portraits, and two new systems have been added to the galaxy map, which can be visited and previewed although there's no content to be found there as of yet.

For the next update I'll be continuing to do some new faction prep work, and then starting on some story content, likely starting with the Schen. You can check out the Patreon post here for more info, or the patch notes below:

v0.13.0/v0.14.0 Releases, and 2nd Anniversary Sale

Hey all, it's a new month, and a new version is out! v0.14.0 is now up for patrons, and v0.13.0 has been released for the public at the usual link. This latest release adds the first steamy content featuring Choker, as well as a new shop to purchase upgrade items from. Next month is going to be a big step however, as I've decided it's finally time to start working on the next pair of species: the reptilian Schen and the space goblins of Happee Co! This will mostly involve a lot of behind-the-scenes work to start with, as there's a lot of work that needs to be done to get a new faction set up.

Also, today marks the second anniversary of the Carnal Coup: Overseer's Edition launch! For this week in celebration, it's 35% off on both Steam and itch.io! (Check out the Downloads tab for links!)

Unity also updated their insane pricing plan since the last post, tldr: I won't be making any changes with Carnal Voyages as far as game engine is concerned.

You can check out the Patreon post here, and the patch notes are below. Enjoy!

Hey folks, it's mid-month update time! This update wraps up the Sorority mini-plotline, including adding a new CG, and advances Choker's plotline by a few more scenes as well.

I also have something of a rant about Unity's new pricing plan changes, which I won't repeat here. Suffice to say, Unity's current leadership is insane and may have just killed the company. Whee! Check out the Patreon post here for more details, and you can find the patch notes below:

This update was entirely focused on the Sorority cameo plotline, and came close to finishing it off but not quite with a few more bits to add in for the next update.

For the second half of the month I'll be going back to code work for a bit, aiming to add in the ability to issue request/orders to your partners in the procedural scenes.

A good time to check it out and pick up the art book if you haven't already.

Carnal Jigsaw

Hey all, just letting you know that the bonus minigame I was talking about yesterday is now up!

Carnal Jigsaw 

This project was largely an experiment to see what I could get done with 4-5 hours of development time, and I'm unlikely to work on it further, so I'm not making any grand quality promises. However, it includes fifteen lewd puzzles featuring artwork from both Carnal Coup and Carnal Voyages, and it's free for all, so I hope you enjoy!

v0.9.0/v0.10.0 Releases

Hey all, it's a new month, which means new updates! v0.9.0 is now up at the usual itch.io page, and v0.10.0 is now out for patrons! This latest update was entirely focused around post-character-generation customization, with a number of new features added for players with the Shapeshifting trait. Additionally, player name and gender can now be changed at any time from the Personnel Office.

Also, we had a species poll on our next two entries to the game, and the winners are: the reptilian Schen, and the goblins of the Happee Corporation! While they will not make an appearance for a while, artwork will be getting started on them shortly.

For this next month I'll be focusing heavily on writing tasks again, particularly with an aim of getting to recruit your first Specialist NPCs. You can check out the Patreon post here, and the patch notes below:

v0.9.1 Support Update: Extra Smut and New Races

Evening all, it's mid-month update time! This month so far has been almost entirely focused on writing, particularly in regards to replayable smut scenes. For the second half of the month I'll be focusing on implementing shapeshifting, which has been one of the last larger functionality items sitting on my to-do list.

More importantly though, tonight I've also set up a poll to choose the next two races to be added to the game! Right now this is primarily so that artwork can be started rather than actually implementing new content, but this will likely determine development goals for much of the coming year, so it's a big choice. Swing by, sign up and vote! You can check out the Patreon post here for more details.

v0.9.1 Change Log

Game Functions:

• Functionality to support player anatomy as a trigger for dialogue options.
• Dynamic NPC functionality expanded to support default-non-binary characters, and mixed-gender NPC groups.

There's a number of new market options available at Watch Station in the Figura System, and you can now do some ship window shopping.

v0.7.1 Supporter Release

Time for our mid-month update, and this time we've got the first in-game appearance of one of our main antagonist characters! As with doing anything for the first time, there were a few mechanical issues to sort out - in particular, dealing with the fact that these characters are gender-flexible yet gender preferences can be changed at any time. In the end I went with a system for locking a character in to the preferences you have at the time you first encounter them, so heads up, make sure you have your preferences as you want them before proceeding with the storylines! There was also a lot of duty assignment work in this update, as well as some further updates to the crew promotion system. You can check out the details here, or the patch notes below:

v0.7.1 Change Log

• Corrected a layering issue on the Cheats screen.

• Fixed an error in the 'Attempt to Steal GPU Weaponry for Analysis' Harman System duty assignment.

Hey all, it's monthly update time! v0.6.0 is now up for the public at the usual itch.io page, and v0.7.0 is now available for patrons!

This is in preparation for adding the crew promotion system to the game, which I'll be working on later this month. There's a fair bit in there, so you can check out the Patreon post for more info, or the patch notes below:

v0.6.1 Change Log

Game Functions:

• Heat System has now been implemented:
  • If you have spent more time in a hostile star system than your ship's stealth capabilities can handle and attempt to use the System Map to travel, you will be given the option of fighting off a GPU patrol vessel or exiting the system via the Galaxy Map.
  • If you win the fight, 20 hours will be added to your detection timer. If you lose the fight you will immediately emergency FTL jump back to the Figura System with a 10 hour time loss. Reminder: Attempting a fight with no bridge crew assigned still results in an automatic loss.
  • If you have spent more time in the system than your ship stealth + 20 hours, you will only have the option of leaving via the Galaxy Map.
  • Leaving a system will reset any bonus hours remaining for that system.
  •  The ability to pass time at Watch Station will remain until more GPU systems have been added to the game.
• Crewmember Seduction system has been implemented:
  • You can currently attempt to seduce one crewmember every 4 hours. This is done by viewing crew profile information in the crew roster.
  • Base success chance is 20%. Some player sexual traits provide bonus options. Effective bonuses increase chance to 40%, negative effective bonuses reduce chance to 0%. Smoothtalker trait provides a 60% chance.
  • These values will likely change when future upgrade options are available.
• XP requirements to reach the next promotion level are now shown on crew profiles. XP cannot be earned above this requirement, although previously existing XP is not removed (for now). Requirement values subject to change in the future. Commanders no longer earn xp.
• Crewmembers can earn Sexual XP in dynamic sex scenes. XP is temporarily gained by actions, and 'locked in' when orgasm is reached. XP gain capped at 1/8th the promotion requirements per orgasm. Temporary XP that is not locked in is cleared on the daily update. Not all bonuses yet applied, all values subject to future change.
• The XO will now select one random crewmember each day who isn't maxed out on Sexual XP and give them 'training' for 1/4th of their current rank requirement. This feature will be expanded in the future.

Scene Content:

• Seedcarrier intro scene completed with second half. Additional XO/Seedcarrier scene variant available if your relationship is Fuckbuddy, Rival or Hatefuck. If you are already located at Daenad Iond on an old save you will need to leave and revisit to retrigger the scene.
• New 'Scenario Replay' scene added to the Captain's Office aboard the ship. This hub scene will allow the replaying of previously viewed romance scenes that are otherwise one-time-only. Different options can be selected when replaying scenes but these will not qualify for any 'canon' progress flags. Seedcarrier intro scene added to replay hub.
• Mini-scenes added as part of crewmember seduction system.

Art Content:

• New map icons/decoration added to system maps: unique system stations, unique system trading vessels, GPU military vessels.
