School of Lust v0.3.3 Progress Report #2 & Poll
Hi everyone!
It's time for yet another School of Lust progress report. We were unfortunately not able to release a new School of Lust update before the end of the year, but you can expect v0.3.3 in January.
As we already announced previously, we've been working on making the City map available in the upcoming update (so the To Whom My Concern quest can be completed). It's been a bit of a challenge to create the new city map. We didn't want the map to be too large, as it can cause performance issues (as we saw with the town map, before we shrunk it), and the city map requires quite a lot of buildings to be fitted.
In the end, we decided to split the city map in multiple areas, allowing you to select which area of the city you want to visit from the world map (similar to the Persona series):
Central Square: The main area with office buildings and a square with a particularly interesting festival going on.
Shopping District: The fancy area with many shops and fancy houses.
Skid Row: The slum, where the real party is at!
We're also planning to do some changes to the town, now that the city is accessible (e.g. remove the "shopping mall" and place it on the shopping district in the city instead).
On top of that, we've been working on 5 new scenes for the next update, however we're not yet sure if all the scenes will be available in v0.3.3. It's taking a bit long to add them, as they are all fully animated and quite comprehensive. These scenes will appear when you spend time with the girls. For example, Play Basketball with Sofia and the much-awaited "Studying" with Claire:
(ignore the bad quality, had to shrink the gif, and it's still friggin' 1 MB!)
Last, but not least, we've started hiring voice actresses to do some partial voice acting (not the full dialogue, just reactive voices like moaning/grumping/laughing/greeting etc.). We'll post some sample voices soon, and let you guys help us decide when we're undecided, however we'd first like to hear from you guys if you'd like the male protagonist to be voiced as well.
Keep in mind that the character voices will be entirely optional, and if the male protagonist does get voiced, you will have the option to enable/disable all voices or only the protagonist' voice from the options menu.
We look forward to your poll votes.
Stay tuned! Hopefully, we'll have the update ready by the next post. We also have a few upcoming surprises we've been working on regarding School of Lust, that we will share with you guys as soon as they are ready.
As always, thank you so much for your support and have a great new year!
Cheers!

I would rather prioritize the game actually being developed before adding extras.
Old saying in the military is, "The effective range of an excuse is zero meters." A hillbilly sayings is promises don't feed the bulldog.
I can only hope that since it has been a decent bit since the last update that the next update will also be the release of the beta
quick question when the next update/version/ progress report coming out its been over 2 weeks
Any word guys? sorry but were getting anxious :D
New report would be great. its getting awfully quiet and I am so psyched for the new build :)
What about a new report?
Hi Ben! We'll post a new report very soon! Thanks for reminding us =)
Voice Actress be like: Nani! (Subtities)
I would love it if the women were voice acted.but leave the protagonists voice optional.
I just hope it doesnt take a way from development of other parts of the game.
^same here
^SAME
just messaging for my download link.
Plus Happy New Year Guys and Gals!
Hey Guys, could you make the option to where you could turn off the voices but leave the reactive sounds in (ie grunts, huffs, laughs, moans, etc.) just in case the voices hit the switch we dont like? (Im not stating the voice cast would be bad as i havent heard any of them yet, but many smexy games have REALLY bad voices like they are forced to speak or read lines, it has to feel natural as well as use slang and contractions in quick real time voices. My advise (which is but a very tiny opinion,) let the actors/actresses speak naturally as if they were irl, i feel it would add more immersion (plus im a sound porn junky) Thank you for hearing me!) I also humbly ask if you could throw more easter eggs and IRL references in there as well, there's no need but im sure a few of us would like that :)
Hi Sgt! That's a great idea! However, we're not planning to add the full voices until the game (dialogue) is fully done, but we'll definitely add that option when it's ready. We're quite anal when it comes to things like that, so expect the best possible voices (and revamped custom music)! We're also planning to do a poll here as well, to let you guys help us choose which voice to go for, if we're undecided. Regarding the easter eggs, we're most definitely going to add a lot more. We want more interaction with the environments as well, allowing the player to interact with more things in the room. We've been focusing on the main parts of the game lately, so there hasn't been that many easter eggs, but we'll focus on those when the main parts are closed to finishing. Let us know if you have any other suggestions. Cheers! =)
Thanks I will try and get that to you.I appreciate this.
Sorry, been real busy at work. Will try and get that screen shot off.. Also wanted to let you know I even tried the public download and moved it to my app. folder and still got the error message. I'll send you the screen shots.
Hi! Okay I've tried several times to download and open the game. I swear I have followed the instructions to the T. Everytime it either tells me that my download can not be opened or it tells me in the utilities file there is no such download. I really enjoyed playing this game on Gamcore because that was the only place I could play it and I have been supporting you but I can only play so long on Gamecore before it blocks me. I really need help downloading to my Mac. I am very frustrated by this. Thanks in advance.
Hi PO! Sorry to hear that you're having trouble running the game on Mac. Would you be able to share a screenshot of the exact message it shows you? You can just send it as an email attachment to contact@bonergames.com It would help us figure out what's causing the problem. Cheers =)
so worth the 20$
Hope our money helped you :D We're looking forward to playing it and wish you a happy new year!
