Ahoy Buccaneers!
I'm here once again to update you on the latest developments I've been working on!
With the Elegia arc concluded in v0.28, the next version — v0.29 — revisits content from previous arcs, focusing on expanding and improving the current content.
One of the main highlights of v0.29 is the visual rework of our beautiful archaeologist, Nico Robin!
Here’s a comparison of how Nico Robin’s appearance has evolved throughout the development of Lusty Buccaneers:
What do you think of the evolution? The change is quite noticeable, isn’t it? Leave your comments!
The plan is to gradually update all of her events with new expressions and content, and to do the same for all other characters, so everyone is more in sync with the original art style and has a sexier and more polished look, which I consider a major quality improvement.
On another note, I’ll soon be publishing the results of the latest poll for Uta’s next lewd event to be developed in the upcoming version! The vote is really close, and your extra power vote could change everything!
I'm also thinking about launching a new poll to decide which language will be officially translated next in the game — stay tuned! Keep in mind these are automatic translations, which means they may contain some errors.
With this and several ideas I'm currently organizing, I’ll keep you posted on everything that’s coming in v0.30 in future updates!
As always, thank you so much for your continued support. Stay tuned for more posts in the coming days!
Until next time!
Kampai!

Which character are you gonna change next like Robin?
The result of the last poll will be reported in the coming days.
Are you planing to add carrot to the crew
Carrot has already participated in several polls to be added, I’m sure she will be chosen sooner or later!
Could you add stussy to the next update
Several have requested her, I will keep her in mind for the next poll and the Patreons will decide who will be next, along with her entire arc and possible content, to be added!
Uhh can I actually fuck nami robin and boa or is it just the dream.
For the moment, the threesome is just a dream, but I will work to make it possible to bring more related content in the future. For now, adding several characters to the same event multiplies the difficulty of making it, which requires much more time and makes its development more complex.
Quick question, Suppose you were to add Shirahoshi in later versions, and as we know, she is a giant mermaid, if one day she were to join the crew, how would you do it?
First of all, I would analyze how viable it would be to make her giant in the story. But if she were a character to be added to the ship, then I might consider making a size change like with Yamato. It’s something I will analyze when the time comes.
I am glad you improved Robin's design, she looked rather very scary in her 2nd design which was a little off-putting so glad you revamped it.
Nika, tienes planeado hacerle continuación al sueño con Nami, Robin y Hancock?
Claro, tengo en mente agregar mas sueños con estos u otros personajes!
She looks gorgeous
Love the design, but I really hope you keep the body proportions more natural. Robin’s face looks perfect, but her body feels a bit too exaggerated compared to the anime. Also, as a subscriber, I’d love to vote for Arabic language support — if that’s added, I’ll definitely upgrade my subscription. Thanks for the effort!”
I understand what you’re saying, but aside from the fact that even in One Piece the characters’ bodies have become more exaggerated as the series progresses, it’s important to remember that Lusty Buccaneers is an NSFW game and doesn’t aim to be an exact replica of the original. It’s natural to lean into exaggeration or even sexualize certain characters in order to better align with the tastes of the players and the tone of the story. I’ll do my best to ensure it’s enjoyable for the majority of you! As for the translation, for now I can only add languages that use the Latin alphabet, but I’ll likely run a poll and, depending on the results, see how I can incorporate other languages. I’ll look into it, but everything depends on the interest shown by the majority of Patreons — since spending time on translation takes away from the development of new events. Even though much of the work is “automated”, it still requires a significant amount of development time. Thanks for your comment!
I've been waiting for a Robin rework 🥹 but since you reworked robin will you also rework the other characters since they no longer share the same art style?
Of course, characters and events will be reworked little by little as new versions are released, in line with the quality improvements I’ve been applying.
Can you add a new language in the game ?
There will be a poll soon to decide the next language to be added. The game already includes some translations available in the options menu.
Time for v0.30 I'm subscriber in patreon and if you can att langlanguages arab?
As for v0.30, I’ll be sharing news about it soon — it’s already in development. On the other hand, the issue I’m facing with Arabic is that it doesn’t follow the Latin alphabet, which makes it more complex to implement. I need to evaluate and analyze this carefully. I promise to look into it thoroughly!
Nika, I would like you to make viola from dressrosa to be a anytime visiting person in this story wether night or day
Viola will obviously appear sooner or later in the game — it’s just a matter of the Dressrosa arc winning a poll. I’ve already received several similar requests, so of course she’s on my radar!
como podemos actualizarla en Android?, muchos de nosotros no sabemos como hacerlo 😥
En android no hay nada de que preocuparse. Simplemente baja la versión nueva e instálala en tu celular, sin borrar la versión anterior. Se actualizará el juego y no perderás tus saves. Si borras la versión anterior, si perderás tus progresos.
One question brother is the update out or you just Posted the news related the upcoming update and if the update is out how should I update my game is it by buying it 🥲
This is just a devlog where I talk about general topics I’m currently working on. In this one, I also mention v0.29, which has already been released for Patreons. The latest update came out on August 1st — keep in mind that the free version is always one version behind, as it gets released when a new one comes out for Patreons.
Holy shit, I knew it would be good, but comparing the first version to this new one is like comparing Pokémon evolutions: Robin, from Charmander. There's an impressive Charizard. Well, Nika, you already know what's coming, I hope you're prepared: 1st: I wanted to ask you something. I want to subscribe to your Patreon now (I'm finally working, so I could pay for a better plan to help you), but unfortunately, I can't complete the purchase because it keeps saying the card was declined. And with the recent censorship on itch.io, that worries me a bit, so I wanted to know if there are other ways I can upgrade your plan? (Yes, the card is working). Obs: I don't know how, but I managed it, using a family member's card, and unfortunately, I discovered the problem, Patreon only accepts credit cards, that's mean, because for those who are poor and live in Brazil, that's the same as asking to be robbed ksksksk, but if it's possible to accept debit cards, that would help a lot. 😎🤙 2nd: Thanks to you, I'm rereading the entire One Piece, and yes, I'm already in the Water Seven arc. And I saw something else interesting, which is in the Foxy arc, and there, the "Davy Back Fight" is introduced, which is a series of betting games, where the loser loses crew members, (It appears in chapter 306), and that would be cool to see in the game, especially to give an excuse to take members of other crews to have on the team, or for people who like NTR, in case they lose (I'm totally against NTR, I think it's disgusting, but I like it, each to their own). And I only have this question and one suggestion for now, right now, I'm literally going to pay to see what's new with this new Plan of mine. I don't know if I'll always be able to pay, so, every now and then, if the situation isn't the best, I'll go back to being a non-paying member, and I hope you don't hate me for it 🥹
Hi Kuma, I’m glad you liked the new Nico Robin! 1) Thank you for your support as a Patreon — I’m truly grateful for your help! Unfortunately, I can’t change anything regarding the payment system, as that’s handled by the platform itself. But maybe in the future I can find some alternatives — I’m working on it. 2) About the second point, I understand, and I’ll keep it in mind when we reach that arc! Thanks again for all your support — I know there are many people who help however they can, and that financial situations can change, making it hard to support me economically for a while, especially when that money is truly needed elsewhere. Everyone supports in their own way, so don’t worry, I know you’ve always supported the game in your own way, with suggestions and encouraging words, long before you became a Patreon. So don’t worry — I would never hate you for not being able to keep paying!
When do you think the new island will be released with a new character and can I suggest one idea for the future on my own
You're free to share all your ideas, though the ones who decide which character will come next are the Patreons. These decisions sometimes even change the story, or at least the order in which characters appear. I don’t have a date yet for the next arc, island, or main character, but I’ll hold a poll beforehand. I understand many want to continue the main story, but improving the game isn’t just about adding more story — it also means developing other features and keeping consistency by updating older events!
Wooow, she looks amazingly beautiful! Well done, Nika!
Huge Upgrade.
Great update on the Robin design. Wouldn't mind the next update be only reworks of her scenes.
This is just the first step — I’ll be updating the events and other characters little by little. Thanks for the comment!
