Early Access Hype, July 4th, and Full Steam Ahead for Doja Cat DLC!

Hell yeah! Next week, House Party leaves Early Access! We're getting the female player's story all prepped for Version 1.0 to go live, and here's a peek at the changes we've been working on:

- We reworked The Muse (storyline for Madison and Derek), the Sibling Warfare (storyline for Ashley), and Vickie’s endurance test to better fit the female player.
- We added a new sleeping mask item… Can you figure out what it’s for?
- Not only can you now bond with Derek, but we made it so the female player can now ask him for help and advice on a variety of topics. He’s not your long-time buddy anymore, but he’s still happy to help you find your way around the party!
- We added and adjusted LOADS of dialogue and responses for a bunch of characters to smooth out gameplay for the female player across the entire Original Story. The characters most affected by these changes are Brittney, Derek, Madison, Rachael, and Vickie, but almost every character has something new for you to discover!!
- We updated almost all of the romance scenes in the game to work with the female player, including dialogue and context, and redesigned much of the hookup logic to provide a more fulfilling experience for her. We plan on polishing the romance scenes even further and will add new cutscenes in our first update after the Doja Cat DLC launches!
- We made it so the female player can now ask Brittney to move to another location, provided that the player has done something to help her out first. Are you a good enough friend to help Brittney mingle?
- We updated poses so male poses in the Original Story are now replaced by female poses whenever appropriate.
...and much more!

These changes aren't live yet, but we're excited to bring them live in our upcoming update when we officially leave Early Access next week. We hope you’ll have fun exploring the new content when it drops!

We hope you doods and doodettes had an awesome 4th of July this year chilling at concerts, gatherings, and BBQs. Hopefully, you remembered to set off a few extra fireworks this year to celebrate House Party leaving Early Access soon, too!

With House Party almost out of Early Access, don't forget that we'll be prepping the Doja Cat DLC to share with everyone. Can you believe it's almost time to party with Doja? Add the DLC to your wishlist now so you know as soon as it goes live this fall:

Did you miss Ava's “Let’s NOT Play” stream last night?

Well, dood, it was awesome, and you missed out big time! But that's actually okay, because it's all recorded, so you can still check out the saved version on her Twitch!

So kick back, crack open a cold one, and get ready to laugh as Ava reacts to playing House Party off-screen during this chill and funny play session: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1525622475
