Max Gentlemen Sexy Business! News

Build 2.08 Tweak:

• Optimization on corgis to potentially help with corgi race on lower performance machines
  

Bugfixes:

• Fix for a bug that killed angel/cash from arc 3 (might end up messing up in progress runs on arc 1+2 if you had angel/cash and weren't supposed to have them yet)
  
• Removed Angel and Cash industries from rivals in district maps if you do not have them unlocked
  
• Reduce "taxes to zero" achievement should not auto-trigger when taxes start
  
• Abandon Company button in the v1.09 upgrade screen should now load the game properly
  
• Options button during dialogue in-game should work again
  
• Fixed bug where gentsona would randomize when viewing story from story and dates title menu
  
• Fixed missing rival in story and dates scene
  
• Antoine modern head should be visible now
  
• Small gfx glitch in title menu fixed
  
• Dictionary button should no longer open the color picker
  
• Fixed a bug that caused rivals with no traits to explode a handful of times and lock the game's progress.
  
• Redundancy added to re-gen lost rivals data (a bandage for saves affected by the above bug)
  
• Fix for honorable trait being paired with huge health pool as a result of mysterious or phoenix traits
  
• Fixed a bug where mysterious trait would change both traits - now should only see mysterious trait by itself
  
• For now, if you hit ESC twice during a corgi race, it will just skip it. (for slow performing computers)
  
• Fix for Angel + Cash being hirable before beating act 3 (they SHOULD be hirable AFTER you beat it)
  
• Above fix should prevent some other slightly odd behaviors that were adding them at strange times before arc 3

Good day!

The huge The British are COMING! update is coming to you October 12th, free of charge. Not only that, but the update is now an EXPANSION!

What does that mean? Well, not terribly much. Just that the amount of content we've been working on for the past year is so significant, we decided that calling it an expansion was more appropriate.

Expect to see extensive patch notes next week. But stick around if you want a little peek behind the curtain of development.

You might also be asking yourself, why is this expansion free? You'd be right to ask that. This expansion is easily a $10 DLC. Honestly, it's equal parts guilt and strategy.

We were aiming to finish this update... about a year ago. Pandemics are a hell of a thing - And with that extra time, came a lot of feature creep. So while, yes, you've all had to wait, there is much much more meat to the update expansion than originally planned. So being late makes me feel bad about charging for it. And yes, 100% of our fans have said they would gladly pay for more content... but that leads into my other reason for making this expansion free.

Sales have been good but not strong enough for me to nickle-and-dime our existing fans. I'd rather foster goodwill, and hope that you all will want to help spread the word about the game, to reach new fans. Plus, with my experience in DLC on Organ Trail, I find that it can fracture the audience. I'm not against expansions or anything, it just doesn't really align with the vision I've had for Max Gentlemen Sexy Business! As a solo dev, it's easier for me to think of MGSB as a single product that is the best it can be for all players, new and old.

If you'd like to help, leaving a positive steam review is a GREAT way to support us. Really, it helps more than you'd think.

If you're still excited and want to find some like-minded gentlepeople, I recommend dropping by our Discord! https://discord.gg/Baj5dp2

Anyhow. I hope you will all enjoy what we've made for you. See you next week.
Cheers! ːstachemonocleː

Just wanted to let everyone know that development on the The British are Coming! update has been very very slow, but it's still coming. I dare not venture to announce a new "release date" until we begin testing (aka all the new content is done already). While I still have no idea how long it will take to finish the update at the quality it deserves, know that I'm not working on anything else until we finish this update.

I hate that it's taking much longer than planned but unfortunately my spite alone is not enough to power the studio through the challenges of a pandemic. The added stress of wildly missing our deadline has not been good for me but pretty much all of our fans have been supportive and understanding - so I thank you for that, sincerely.

Anyways, just checking in to let you all know what's up. Thanks for bearing with us!

Hello everyone. It's now December and the "Fall" release window that I was aiming for for the Free The British are COMING! update is almost past us.

As you can imagine, the pandemic has impacted everyone on the team and our schedule was nothing more than wishful thinking during this bollocks of a year. Rest assured, this update is all I've been working on. We've even brought on 5 new team members since launch! On the plus side, the extra time means we've been able to add even more content than we originally planned. So where does the update stand? Well, I'm currently aiming for "Winter(?)" now.

I apologize for the delay and it's heartbreaking to have to wait so long to share our work with you. I must ask you to wait a bit longer but I can promise it will be worth it (free!?) We could easily charge $10 for the amount of content we're adding -or- have rushed it out the door to meet the initial deadline but... well, nah I'd rather do a good job and reward our fan-base with the luscious update you all deserve.

Speaking of, Here is a peek at just some of features to expect in the update:

• New asset upgrades system
  
• 40+ new illustrations
  
• 50+ new outfits
  
• 70+ new genstona parts
  
• New business events
  
• A butt-load of unlockable "Friendships": vignettes between characters
  
• 4 new lunch date activities
  
• A dozen more explicit Smutty Magazine unlocks (for the adult version) ːstachewinkː
