Breeding Season is the unholy combination of a farming sim and a sex game. Breed a variety of sexy monsters together for sale to adventurous clients. Featuring Catgirls, Dickwolves, Harpies; you name it. Currently in early alpha.
It'll be two weeks after that for non-patrons (this last update was early for non-patrons as I plan on ramping up to the full month delay rather than making you guys wait that long without updates). So, expect it between the 3rd and the 7th.
A full month? Don't you think that's a bit excessive considering how little content there is? I'm very interested in patreon myself but I'm simply not ready to invest as the project is in waaaaay too early a stage. I'd understand a month later on when there is significantly more content but right now the games not even really playable. Most people just load it up to see where it's at and give some feedback. Delaying potential investors from seeing your work in progress for so long seems counter productive to the cause.
The reasoning behind the month delay is two-fold: with a two-person team we don't exactly have the time for QA, so donors can catch any big game breaking bugs before we go to a public release and give feedback that lets us refine new content before it goes public. The other is, of course, to give an incentive to donate, which is an early peak at new content as it comes in. We're not as much withholding finished content from the general public as we are giving the donors the ability to play it earlier than we'd usually be comfortable with in a public release.
As a Patreon supporter, I can say that the chance to play the new update earlier really helped me decide to donate. And I play regularly, not only to see new features or as pure fap material but because I actually enjoy the game.
It is definitely playable even though the game play is rather limited. That's what you get for a game in early alpha and if you're upset that Hartista is having people pay for it that is what happens with all games, but now people pay because they want the finished product, not because they expect to profit from other people who will.
And the amount of content is going way up just because of all the support that people have been showing, allowing Hartista and SPurple to dedicate much more time to it and (hopefully) get updates out with less delay.
But honestly, I am also donating simply because I love the game and want to show my appreciation by doing more than just playing it, regardless of the incentive rewards that are provided.
Rob Liefeld (famous Marvel comic artist) was once asked to draw the female uterus, he then grabbed a steel gauntlet and proceeded to punch threw a chalk board provided for the diagram.
I think you can over look this "Dick to Cat" ratio, It fits the game, but I am now puzzled to what the Dick horse situation has become?
Meh, being similar in body size with the female monsters set the wolf apart from the demon/stallion. I'm not talking about dick size. This wolf is essentially a reskinned demon.
The new dickwolf is basically taking the old demon's place from a body-type standpoint; with the hunched-over shape and the long arms. The new demon will be much more up-right and imposing, and less beast-like. We felt that was a lot more fitting. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-nOMw1PROtSw/Uw-wPRnWaTI/AAAAAAAAAEI/_i8wzgzsx88/s1600/Catgirl+and+Demon+mockup.png
I think it may be a good idea to add in a smaller male creature to fill in the niche for those who like smaller males in sex scenes, or closer to same size partners. Maybe a monster boy of some kind? Something you can buy access to early on, like the harpy.
I was expecting something diferent from dickwolf.. more like a wolf... but the animation from both monsters are awesome I can't wait to see it in the game... can you add a trait to make it more like a dog? This would be awesome! Also As your game get bigger... you could make it on different platforms other then flash....
I like them a lot more than I did at first. I do miss the small wavy motions in the catgirl's hair from the earlier versions, but I'm sure that will come into play as you add the variations in appearance. The tail still looks too stiff, it would be nice to see it curl and uncurl a little ... but the overall look is really coming together.
The Dickwolf is becoming more of a Werewolf, but with the feral trait on the horizon I don't have a problem with that ... it might be interesting to see it develop reversible traits in the game. (explanation required) I mean that a feral Dickwolf breed to an Elven slave girl becomes less feral, where a catgirl breed to a feral Dickwolf could become more feral.
Just a thought... it does open new possibilities for blending traits, You'll have to be careful of breeding your slave girls during the full moon though ;-)
Cat's hips a look creepy. Like they are slapped on the sides of her stomach instead of growing from below. Two almost perfect hemispheres on top and actual joint somwhere on the inner thigh O_o
Also, sagging breasts? Tbh, looked way cuter with the right face, even if it was simplistic.
My two cents on the state of things. I feel as though the sprites have greatly improved, The UI needs more contrast in some places to be more legible, but with it, the UI will have overall gained some personality since your new artist has taken over. If I where to find a 3rd person to work with me on this project, it would be a dedicated animator. I don't mean to pick on you H-Bomb, Your getting my money and that's more than a lot of professionally made games can say, but that catgirl animation seems outside your skill range. Animation that looks natural is difficult, more so when it needs to be sexy. You had animations I liked, just like you had sprites I liked. The Futa Kittengirl was a great example of both, wish you had anything more than just her idle animation done, cause it was great (I hope little changes). But even before your animation could be a bit clunky, like the dw on veal felt incredibly rushed.
If your worried about your writing... I wouldn't. I think I've read every bit of it thus far and it's quite serviceable. It's not distracting or full of errors, and it can even paint some amusing/sexy images from time to time.
I am as pleasantly surprised as you are that Patreon is turning out so great and I really want to see this work of yours turn out great. Don't rush to meet content. I'm sure you feel at least mildly pressured to get the game updated quickly, but I think we'd all dislike a rushed job.
I actually like the new DW btw, both it and the feral version you previewed are pretty sweet. The whole idea of a feral version could be really cool! Might be harder to make the feral girls look as sweet, but I believe you can do it. Also on that subject, I actually hope there is a feral elf set. Not because it would happen to elves normally, but I feel it would be great to be able to breed the trait into them. Maybe doing so would gain the Attention of the Marchioness. Maybe she'd want borrow the specimen and reward you in someway ^.^.
Umm are the hands supposed to be like that? They look kind of detached with the way they are moving, it looks like the dickwolf is wearing very loose gauntlets or something >.>
Well whatever, we'll have to get used to it no matter how it winds up looking. It looks fine so far anyway, I guess. But who cares? This isn't modern art, it's fap material. Rock on.
That's a nice improvement on the dickwolf's legs, much less silly looking then before.
I'm guessing that the buttstallions are going to be centaurs once you get to them?
Will the male PC animations be mostly PC sub like the female ones? If not, will there be any opportunities in the game for male-sub fem-dom in breeding scenes?
Still working on the new BS design, not sure exactly what they'll look like.
As for the PC animations: the intention has actually always been to have the breeder be really sub in the early parts of the game, and then gradually grow more dom as you become more experienced as a breeder, to the point where eventually she's effortlessly flipping dickwolves onto their backs and holding them down while she rides them, etc. It's just never made it into the game yet due to extra animation work. It would work similarly with the male PC.
Sounds interesting to me. Having the opportunity to choose whether or not to take the lead, and a skill level of some kind for the breeder which unlocks the dominant scenes, seems like it'd be the way to go there.
I'm little bit sad cause now dickwolf more look's like a werewolf then wolf. But i have another question, will you add more scenes for breeding two monsters, I mean 4 animations for dickwolf\catgirl, catgirl\futacatgirl, or it will be only one scene for one breed ?
Been out of the loop on this for quite some time and while I'm disappointed the dickwolf doesn't look like a feral wolf, I'm very very pleasued to see a more canine cock.
I really dont want to unsettle s-purple, but I like the old monsters a lot more. It's probably about the Dickwolf standing upright and the Catgirls bodytype. (She seems a bit short for her hips to me) I also miss the Dickwolf licking his own dick. :D I love H-Bombs humor in the game. But keep up the good work guys! :)
While I'm right there with you on the general body types, I think this is basically just a case of them trying out some new things that people had probably been asking for. Since we already had what we wanted, we didn't ask for it. So, I think we'll end up more or less with most of the things we really liked about the old monsters, but drawn by someone who's got some pretty serious art skills.
Movements are a bit too sharp and joints are not very good looking at the moment, but still these models are well-done and promising. I absolutely like S-Purple drawing style! ^__^ Though I must say, that such a huge size difference is quite odd and strange-looking, especially during future sex scenes. Please make sure that sizes will fit even a bit, otherwise there will be no plausible, thus lusty sex. Though it's up to you how to resolve this dillema. ;)
when do you think the new animations will be put into the game?
ReplyDeleteDickwolves and Catgirls sometime between the 19th and the 23rd for patrons.
Deleteso that means that people who aren't patrons should expect to see it somewhere around the 29th or the 1st of may? or somewhere around there anyways?
DeleteIt'll be two weeks after that for non-patrons (this last update was early for non-patrons as I plan on ramping up to the full month delay rather than making you guys wait that long without updates). So, expect it between the 3rd and the 7th.
Deleteah. Thank you hartistapipebomb! do you plan on making an animation for the Alraune?

Is that the size difference that will be in the game? (Not that its bad, but i think his dong is only slightly smaller then her torso)
ReplyDeleteSo a perfect fit, then!
DeleteFor the record, it is totally canon that the average female's internal organs are made up 75% of vagina in the world of Breeding Season :P.

ReplyDeleteThere will eventually (in later updates) be a Feral trait that allows you to have wolf-like dickwolves.
DeleteWe don't have any plans to put the game on any other platforms currently.
Looks great, s-purple did a really good job.
ReplyDeleteWill the dickwolf on dickwolf animations be making it in this upcoming update? (I hope so)
ReplyDeletethey said they'll be focusing on dickwolf and catgirls, so I assume they'll work on those too.
DeleteWill there be different variety of color for the catgirl?
ReplyDeleteAre you going to be keeping stomach bulge like there was for Butt Stallions on Catgirl or Neoteny Catgirl? This picture makes me hope that you do.
ReplyDeleteit is. asked him yesterday on irc
DeleteReminds me of Mr. Hands

Wow that wolf looks tough... he wont be nice on that kitty and little elf... i liked the size difference too...
ReplyDeleteAs someone said, now i try to guess butt stallion size... when we think he will top the wolf and this little kitty... it will be rough and nice!!!
Can you tell us which monsters choose the donators put the game after? and please make a forum... blog replies sucks...
This. Looks very disturbing.

ReplyDeleteWhy does it so strongly remind me about Dark Souls? Also, I think It's a good idea to attach this canine pepper to his body.
ReplyDeleteWell whatever, we'll have to get used to it no matter how it winds up looking.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fine so far anyway, I guess.
But who cares? This isn't modern art, it's fap material.
Rock on.
I like the new random events :) it could be a way to see later that Margo come for a little 'ride' with one of the PC's monster :P

DeleteJust so we're clear though, being a dom breeder is completely optional right?
DeleteSomething about the catgirl's whole butt region still seems really off.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like if she stuck her legs together, you could still throw a basketball through the cavity left in between her thighs.
DeleteI'm little bit sad cause now dickwolf more look's like a werewolf then wolf. But i have another question, will you add more scenes for breeding two monsters, I mean 4 animations for dickwolf\catgirl, catgirl\futacatgirl, or it will be only one scene for one breed ?
ReplyDeleteBeen out of the loop on this for quite some time and while I'm disappointed the dickwolf doesn't look like a feral wolf, I'm very very pleasued to see a more canine cock.
ReplyDeleteA suggestion if I may? The demons are lame, turn them into futa succubi with horsecocks or get rid of them.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I beat the game WITHOUT cheating! A winner is me.
what happens?
DeleteIt goes to a black screen with a picture of an 8-bit boxer that reads "A winner is you!" Its very unfinished.
DeleteI feel like the Cat animation should be, maybe 50% slower as she saddles downward.
ReplyDeleteI really dont want to unsettle s-purple, but I like the old monsters a lot more.
ReplyDeleteIt's probably about the Dickwolf standing upright and the Catgirls bodytype. (She seems a bit short for her hips to me)

I just hope these two animations aren't to scale or that wolf is going to be poking her lungs.
ReplyDeletecatgirls legs look detachable at the hip
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one who prefers the old DW model?
ReplyDelete
