DevLog – 33
Ahoy Buccaneers!
Over the past few days I took the time to dive deeper into several key areas of the game, and that’s already turning into concrete improvements you’ll notice directly while playing 🔥
As I mentioned in the previous post, I made a very important change to the translation system. I know there are still many languages left to add, but I’ve already laid the groundwork for all of this, so I’ll be adding more soon, making Lusty Buccaneers playable in the language you want!
You can also already enjoy several fixes and improvements that make the experience more comfortable and polished. Text boxes that were too small in different menus now properly adapt to the text. Keep in mind that some translations can affect this on certain screens, since there’s a lot of variation between languages.
On top of that, the Rayleigh event that could loop endlessly after being completed has now been fixed. Thanks to our Nakama CrowX for reporting it first, and as always, thanks to everyone who takes the time to report these details and share feedback. Remember that I always read you and pay attention to your suggestions. Even if I can’t fulfill all of them for obvious reasons, I always take them into account!
On another note, I’ve been working on improvements related to saving and data importing. For now, this system will be put on hold and revisited later, so I can focus fully on the upcoming v0.41. Even though only 15 days have passed, during which I’ve been learning and improving workflows, the progress is very promising and I’ll be sharing more news soon.
And to wrap things up, the next Sneak Peek is packed with surprises. Nami and Rebecca will be in the spotlight!
If everything goes according to plan, v0.41 for Patreons and v0.40 for the general public will arrive in mid-February.
Thank you very much as always for your support! 🏴☠️
Kampai!

Bagaimana mana cara update nya?
Hola Nike saluditos, agradezco por tu esfuerzo y de tu equipo en hacer este juego, lastima que no puedo apoyar donando pero tal vez en un futuro puedo aportar en algunos asuntos oh ganar su confiansa y trabajar a tu lado con videojuegos mas adelante :D
Hey nika ! Can u told me an estimation of when will the v0.41 will be released to public please
Hey! No exact date yet, but it’ll most likely be out closer to the end of the month. I’ll announce it as soon as it’s ready.
Hey Nika, i wanted to ask If u could add an Option to buy more than Just 1 Material at a time?
Hey! I’ll keep that in mind. Buying multiple materials at once is something I’d like to improve later.
If i switch my mobile how do i transfer my data and stats without losing it to another device nika? There is no proper system i think you should work on it as well. Also my advice its boring to wait for another version so add some weekly challenges or raids so we dont get bored to doing same tasks while waiting for another update. You can add random pirate raid or some games with girls (not lewd needed) also you can add some more details in ship that makes it more intresting
There’s an Upload Sync option in the menu (under the save page numbers). I haven’t personally used it much, but Ren’Py lets you upload your saves to the cloud and load them on another device. Just make sure you only load your own saves, because loading someone else’s file could expose you to malicious code. For more info: https://sync.renpy.org/ I also want to implement a new system later to make this easier. And about weekly challenges/raids, I’ll think about it, but right now I’m already tight just getting the updates out, and that kind of feature can get pretty complex.
Something happened Nika? I hope you can bring it as soon as possible, thanks!
Hey Saul! All good, I just ran into a couple issues getting the update to the quality I wanted, so it got delayed. I’ve been working a ton of hours and I’m exhausted, but it’s uploading now and should be available soon.
nika?
Nika porfavor ya es 16 y dijiste que a mediados
Recuerden que cuando digo “a mediados” siempre es un aproximado. A veces pasan cosas y me puedo retrasar un poco.
Sudah tanggal 16 nika, kenapa belum update
Maaf ya, aku sedikit telat karena ada beberapa hal yang harus aku beresin biar kualitasnya sesuai. Update-nya lagi di-upload sekarang, harusnya siap dalam beberapa jam.
Nika! You said that the new version will lounch in mid of the month but today is 16 and it's not lounched yet.
Hey! Yeah, I said mid-month as an estimate, but I ran into a couple things I needed to fix to hit the quality I want. It’s uploading now, so it should be available soon.
Buccaneers 0.40 public release date
It should be available in a few hours..
Yoo Nika plz do consider adding viola too the game like it's dressrosa arc and it's a good time adding her or like an event atleast
Yep, Viola will be part of the Dressrosa arc. When I add her will be decided by Patreons through votes.
Nika thank you for giving us such a good game
Thank you so much for your kind words, Papay! I’m really glad you’re enjoying the game
Pls speak Indonesian please
Indonesian is already available in v0.40 and v0.41 (along with Russian, Chinese, and French), in this next days!
I recently paid for the cheat menu, and nver got it, how do I activate it?
Hey Devin! The Cheat Menu is only included in the Patreon Release [v0.40] + Cheat Menu version. Once you download that one, you can open it in-game by pressing ESC and selecting the Cheat Menu. Thanks for the support! Here ir the last version: https://www.patreon.com/posts/patreon-release-148344461
Thanks for the devlog but weren't we supposed to get the poll results?
Hi! I’ll share the poll results very soon, I just wanted to finish organizing everything first. Thanks for the patience!
Add more conversations to each of the crew members. And please make it easy to get lust points. And the language thing is gonna help the game a lot . Good work on that 👍
Thanks for the suggestions! I definitely want to expand conversations and character depth, and I’m glad you like the language update, it’s a big step for the game.
Bro add some positions to vivi too
Noted! Also, there’s an active Patreon poll right now, so supporters will decide what gets priority next.
Estás haciendo un excelente trabajo sigue así. Nunca había conocido un juego como este me gusta mucho las ilustraciónes y cuando añades a alvida
Muchas gracias por el apoyo, Uriel! Me alegra que estés disfrutando el juego y las ilustraciones. Los Patreons decidiran pronto a la próxima chica en ser añadida!
I am very excited when this game will be updated 🤩
Thank you so much, really glad you’re enjoying the game!
Will there be an Indonesian translation in v0.40?
That’s right! It’s coming out mid-month for both Patreons and free players.
That's really good! Thanks! Are you thinking about adding other girls? Reiju, Stussy, Kalifla, Koala, Ulti would be really good!
Glad you liked it! And yes, little by little more girls will be added to the crew, Patreons usually help decide the next ones in the polls I make.
When will you add rupees as a currency for membership and upi payment methode
Right now I don’t control the available currencies or payment methods, that depends on the platform. If they add it in the future, I’ll gladly enable it.
I would greatly appreciate it if you could add the Thai language option.
Hi! I’ll be adding more languages little by little.
When will version 0.40 be released?
Hi! There’s no exact date yet, I’ll announce it as soon as it’s ready. It’ll most likely be around the 15th or 16th.
About the name changing feature when will add it?
For now, the name change is only available in the cheat menu. Later, when I add a proper player info menu, I’ll add the option there too.
Hey, maybe you won't do this, but you should do a mission about Nami, Robin, and Yamato where at the end of the mission the three of them have sex with the character. And I'd only be grateful if you did that or at least replied.
Hey Coco! I always try to reply to every message (even if it takes me a while). And yeah, I’d like to add an event like that in the future.
Will you add Arabic?
Hi! I’ll be adding more languages little by little, Arabic included.
Hi! Can I download this game on mobile?
Yes
Great news! Can't wait to know more!
Thank you so much! I’ll share more news soon.
15 februari rilis?
Belum ada tanggal pasti, nanti aku umumkan kalau sudah siap. Kemungkinan besar tanggal 15 atau 16.
I see,In alabasta
