v.0.7 Ep.7 - 2024-01-04
Hey guys,

I'm the developer of the Carnal Contract game.

I'd like to take this moment to thank you all for your comments, suggestions and constructive feedback you've provided over the last 9 months. I really appreciate your time and effort you put in providing your suggestions how to make this game better with every release.

Like most of you already know, this game is my first adventure with VN. And I can say it's been a quite a journey, but looking back on where I started, I am amazed by how much I have learned in the process with your great support here.

With each your comment, I learnt a little bit more about your expectations and what still needed improvement. Most importantly I had the chance to identify and fix things I missed.

Sometimes it felt like homework, and you caught all the mistakes I made after I submitted it. And that was exactly how I learnt the most, so thank you for that kind of support.

I've already fixed many small things you mentioned. Some comments don't require changes since they're important for the story, but many were just things I overlooked.

Also, my coding skills are getting better. The first version of the game was lacking important features in preferences, dialogs, and a gallery. But now, it's much, much improved.

I'm currently working on a new gallery that includes scenes, not just images like it does now. It's still a work in progress, so you can expect it to be added to the game in the upcoming weeks.

The story was the most challenging part of the game. At first, it was quite straightforward, but then I started branching the story based on the Love Interest (LI). And in the last few episodes, the paths are diverging even more depending on the LI you choose.

In the first episodes, there were some things I implemented wrong, like forcing you to have sex with an ex-girlfriend, but I resolved that a few episodes ago. There still exist some forced sex scenes, but they are with side characters, not the main one.

I still have to purchase and include better music in the game, create a gallery with scenes, and include more options for you to choose.

I've really dedicated myself to developing the mysterious game in which the main characters are trapped. I hope you enjoy that part because it adds an extra layer to his game journey.

Carnal Contract file is huge (increasing by 1.5-2.5GB with each episode), but as Abhai mentioned, it's due to poor optimization. The game has more than 7,000 renders in PNG format, and I've already tried to optimize it and convert it to other format, but I wasn't satisfied with the quality decrease that happened during conversion.

Solving this is on my TODO list before the next episode.

Someone will probably publish our last chapter (episode 7) here in a few days, but there's no need to wait, I will share it here with you so you can play it.

Because you've helped me a lot with your comments and support, I am leaking the game here.

Keep in mind, it's huge (12GB), but I'm sure someone will put out a smaller version soon after this post.

Ep.6 v0.6 - 2023-11-11
- over 1200 new renders,

The choices you make throughout will significantly influence the unfolding of episodes 7 and 8, as well as your relationships with other characters.
It's worth revisiting some of the earlier episodes as the choices made there also ripple through subsequent episodes, including this new one. Your influence on the storyline continues to grow!

Initial Release

I’m Dotty, owner of Dotty Diaries. In short…I’ve spent the last few years working in a marketing agency and worked my way to the Head of digital creative. As a hobby, I wrote poems and short novels for many years, since that fulfilled my need for creative expression. My friend introduced me to digital novels when the whole COVID situation started, and I was completely absorbed by them.

Basically, what I was doing for the last almost 3 years was collecting capital and courage to start my own digital novel studio. Finally, that moment came, and I quit my job so I could fully focus on creating VNs. Since I have no experience in programming, my best friend joined me to assist with RenPy and create renders so we can publish episodes monthly.

Our first quest is to create VN Carnal Contract, one of the first “novels” I wrote…which is also one of my favorites.
