SEX ED PULLS

[p]AN OFFER IN COMPROMISE[/p][p][/p][p]The Old Ones' Emissary can't catch a break.[/p][p]This time, Zyra gets roped into a lesson on compromise by the island's resident finance queen. Rei has the advantage here - domination is her specialty. Let's see if Zyra can take the challenge, administered to her fresh derriere via some crisp spanking.
This is how we do business meetings![/p][p][/p][p]An Animated Tapping Game is live![/p][p]-----[/p][p]Golden Pulls are back! Get you an Exotic Waifu for the duration of the Sex Ed event (August 28th - September 3rd)[/p]

New Exotic Waifu: Mizuki, the Water Priestess

[p][/p][p][/p][p]This coy priestess tends to the sacred Asahi WATER magic, and the Curse didn't spare her...
Mizuki must learn to navigate her desires and her duties, and a more experienced fellow priestess has very specific ideas that might help her.

A firm guiding hand. A Master Trader.
You'll be piqued to learn that Mizuki requires... a different sort of equipment.

Get the Water Priestess![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
(WATER is also a code you can redeem in the game for extra crystals)

Waifu Shop Roadmap

[p]Merry meet, my good Master Trader![/p][p]We are now two months into Waifu Shop on Steam! Being in good company with all of you, we can talk with more ease about the future of the game.[/p][p]Just recently, we pondered our original Roadmap for Waifu Shop. We published it shortly after the game first launched, and sighed in relief that most of it came true in a timely manner. It’s no secret that, upon release, Waifu Shop was “due” rather than “done”. We put in a lot of effort to work on new features while managing a live game, and your live Discord feedback was a real blessing that kept us on a good path. By its Steam launch, Waifu Shop was a much more engaging game, closer to our original vision.[/p][p]But we’re not done here.[/p][p]Put on your Covered Helmets and let’s take a stroll around the construction site. Here are some of the changes you can expect to see in your game this year.[/p][p][/p][p]A quick look at Tier 8 items[/p][p][/p][h2]Any moment now:[/h2]
  • [p]Wheel of Fortune because what kind of live game doesn’t have a Wheel of Fortune. This’ll likely be part of our next update.[/p]
  • [p]Steam Achievements. You’re gonna feel a real dopamine rush as your Steam Client pings all your friends about what a Waifu Wrangler you’re becoming >;)[/p][p][/p]
[h2]Rethinking:[/h2]
  • [p]Waifu Pass. The revamp is due for a revamp! It’s all gotta change – the rewards, the tiers, the requirements! Might be an autumnal update at the latest.[/p]
  • [p]Main story delivery. The Waifu Shop story is currently divided into chapters, which are divided amongst your Workers. Adventurers get sex scenes, Workers get everything. We want to let Harmony and your Waifu Shop Worker gang shine even brighter.[/p]
  • [p]Daily tasks. We’re running a whole different game to what we had in October 2024. Therefore, we gotta create a whole different set of daily tasks to match the new gameplay.[/p]
[p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h2]Conceptualizing (doable):[/h2]
  • [p]Community features are the foundation of this season’s development. We’re currently busy with leaderboards, the first of which has already been implemented into Bunny’s Lucky Run. But there is also…[/p]
  • [p]…visiting and voting for the best Shop. Jazz up your place and bring out the fine china, there’s guests coming over![/p]
  • [p]Date night! A chat system (Scroll system? Parchment penpals??) lets you get intimate with your Waifu in a cozier, more personalized environment. An environment to solicit some nudes, respectfully.[/p]
  • [p]New options to unlock Exotic Waifu outside of Gacha Pulls (via new event types and such).[/p]
  • [p]Rizz up your Worker Waifu – high charisma speeds up crafting![/p]
  • [p]The hips don’t have to do all the talking – we can also do a localization sometime.[/p]
  • [p]Deeper item and skill progression systems will make your Waifu better prepared for The Next Chapter.[/p]
[h2]The Next Chapter[/h2]
  • [p]We’re thinking about combat. It’s not on our calendar yet, but combat multiplayer is the next big thing, right after we polish the community features mentioned above.[/p]
  • [p]A multiplayer system lets us continue working on ideas from our original Roadmap, though they might be presented differently than what we originally thought they would be. Kaiju battles whennnn??[/p]
[p][/p][p][/p]
Closing thoughts
[p]What a wonderful community Waifu Shop has brought together! It is a gratifying thing for a developer to work on their project with such creative input from the players – makes us feel like we’re doing a good thing together. Our gratitude goes to our Discord community and our most diligent mods![/p][p]If you didn’t know, we’ve just finished our first Community Waifu Voting, and there’s an Art Contest going on. The community voted for their own waifu concept – an Old Ones faction Mystic Sea Witch. Animal-like (specifically a wild, aquatic mammal with predator traits), with dark fantasy-toned hair, a soft & round body, and flirty & seductive personality. It took some weird turns but she’s looking kinda cute now. We can’t wait to see your interpretations of her![/p][p]Thank you for staying with us for our second big Roadmap, and remember to
