Operation Food to Gold News

Update 21

Adult content
Let's address the elephant in the room first, so we can move on to the fun things.
Valve has denied my request to remove the adult tag from the game and has requested that I put all adult content back into the game and restore it. This is not the path I wanted to take, but the path I am stuck on, so, might as well embrace it, instead of complaining or arguing with them, because that would be a fight I will not win.

Yukari
All Yukari nude content was put back into the game.
Now you can see the nude content without the DLC, but you cannot strip off her bikini and there will be a censor bar. If you own the DLC, then there will be no censor bar and you can get her naked.

Other girls
Not sure yet what I want to do with their lewd content, but I think I will split it up across the 3 DLCs. Previously I wanted to keep the other 2 DLCs clean, since it was a family friendly game, but now that does not matter as it's a full adult game.

All 18+ content is and will remain on my discord for free.


New stuff
- Added 3 lofi music tracks to the game.
- Added sound effects to the buttons.
- Added sound effects to the gambling hexagons.
- Added win effects to gambling, depending on how much you win.
- Added visual effects to Monique, depending on your win. She will spawn hearts.

- When you give a gift to the girls, then they will spawn a red heart.

- Updated the options page.
- Updated the tutorial to be color coded.
- Fixed a bunch of typos.

I made sure to include only sounds and music that are not annoying, but you can mute them if you want. If the music or sounds are too loud or too silent, then let me know.

After testing, I have decided to not give the foods any sound effects. 30 food items dropping at the same time all making a *squish* is quite annoying. I don't hate you fellows this much to include that. :D

Thanks for playing and have fun!

Update 20

All adult content has been removed from the game. The 18+ Yukari DLC has been changed to the Globbloppers DLC.

All owners of the Yukari DLC are now owners of the Globbloppers DLC. You can claim the contents in-game.


Why?
Because I don't want my game to be banned in Germany and China, as Germany is my #1 source of players for the first idle game and probably this one too. A ban there is quite significant! I tried to find any other way, but there is none, since my game is client based. Other games with adult content either have their lewd stuff on a server, or as a separate download or a separate version. This would mean, that I would have to make and update 2 versions of the game, and even then, I am not 100% sure that steam will allow me to remove the adult tag.

I thought, that locking the content behind an adult DLC would be enough, but apparently not, as just having the content in the files is enough to mark it as "Adult".

I hope you understand my situation. Censorship s*cks, but what can you do about it.

The DLC has also seen a price increase. So, see it as a 50% off if you bought it before. Also, now it actually has in-game changing stuff, instead of it being just a costume that does nothing.

If you still want to see all the Yukari lewdness, and other, unreleased lewd pictures I worked on, then you can come to the discord group, where I will post them all for free.

Thanks for reading.
Have fun.

Update 19

Added 47 Steam Achievements to the game.

I planned on adding more originally, but Steam limits me to 100, and I think 47 are more than enough for now. Most are quite difficult to achieve anyway. I might add more in the future, but I did not want to add achievements for the kitchen or the merch store, since that gets reset very often.

Monique
- Increased free spins gotten from Monique to 2 from 1, for non dlc owners.
- Increased free spins gotten from Monique to 6 from 5 for dlc owners.

- At level 10, Monique now gives you 2 time more free spins. So 4 non-dlc and 12 with dlc.


Dialogue
- Changed some dialogue for Monique, Ginny and Zoey, as they were using words implying a gender on the player. Since the player is unknown, I want the dialogue to be neutral and for everyone.
If you find any other dialogue like this, then please let me know so I can fix it.

- Fixed a bunch of typos.

Have fun achieving all the achievements.

Update 18

- All the girls are now fully implemented and dateable.

- Reworked the dialogue system. The old one was limiting me to only 10 lines of dialogue, because of the 10 buttons. The buttons also did not fit and were cluttering the screen. If I want more dialogue, I would need more buttons.
They are gone now and instead the girls talk to you on their own. Some girls have more dialogue than others, but I will add more at a later update.
The case-files have also been removed, as they did not fit and were just extra clutter. Now, you will have to spend time with the girls and read their dialogue, if you want to learn more about them.

- Updated the visuals on some of the girls.

Only thing left for them now is, lewd content and more dialogue lines. But those can wait.

Next, I will focus on steam achievements and sound.

This update has been slow because of some physical health issues. Nothing bad, it just makes work very difficult. Hopefully that is now fixed and I can focus more on updates.

Some of the girls speak in a foreign language. Chinese, japanese, spanish, french. I think it adds to their personality a lot, but, I don't want to offend any native speakers with horrible translations. If you have a correction, then please let me know.
Some languages, like French and Chinese, have special letters. I can't add those. Just so you know. It's not a typo, but an engine limitation.

Anyway,
have fun and enjoy!

Update 17

Bess, Abby, Amber and Jane have been fully implemented and are ready for dating.
Each with their own backstory and personality.

- Added the option to hold the right mouse button to buy gold upgrades or give gifts.

There is a lot of new text and dialogue, so I might have missed some typos. If you find any, then let me know. Thanks!

Have fun!
