Lab Rats 2 Work Update
Just a quick update tonight to summarize some of the stuff I've been working on the last few nights. Here's a quick rundown of what's been done:
- Characters (you and the girls) now have an "arousal" stat that moves up and down while they're having sex, and both parties can climax. Different positions raise arousal by different amounts for each member (a blowjob has very one sided arousal gain, for example).
- A girls "Sluttiness" gain after having sex with her is also now related to how aroused you got her while fucking her (as well as her "Suggestability", which is raised through serum use only).
- There are now outfit previews in all of the outfit screens, as well as a note on how high of a "Sluttiness" score they require to wear.
- Characters now also have a collection of sex skills which raise their partners arousal in matching sex positions.
- Girls will refuse to have sex with you if their Sluttiness isn't high enough. Each position has a different Sluttiness requirement. A high obedience score can substitute for Sluttiness, but the girl won't be happy about it.
- Girls will refuse to let you strip them down if their resulting outfit will end up looking sluttier than they are comfortable with. Arousal adds to this check, so as a girl becomes more turned on you'll be able to strip them down. This can lead to situations where you have to warm up a girl before you can pull her underwear down and have sex with her.
- I've expanded the number of dialogue branches that are used throughout the game, so responses to the player are more closely related to the situation at hand. This means, for example, that an "enjoying_sex_response" is different from a "climaxing_sex_response". These are also only classes of responses, inside of which there can be a large list of possible responses chosen based on personality type, sluttiness, arousal, and obedience.
- There are now temporary background images for all the menus in the game.
There's still a ton to do before this is really a game, but I'm getting close to having everything I want as a proof of concept in the game. Up next are different facial expressions/designs and height adjustments.

so no more incest content on Lab Rats 2?
Maybe think about some girls getting excited about one sided acts?
Having girls develop preferences for different positions or acts is high on the priority list of things to do. There shouldn't be any technical problems getting it to work, the effect will probably be a modifier to arousal gain if you're having sex in the girls favourite position.
Sounds sophisticated.
This is how the serums should be, work on expanding the girls natural behaviors. Some will be easier than others, like the difference between Stephanie and Alex versus Mom and Nora from LR1
Hmmm... Starting to sound like the significance of serums is getting lost in the girl's psychological background noise?? With all those new stats, should the impact of various serums be reconsidered? Still all very exciting though!!
Serum will still be the most direct way to modify girls stats quickly, and the only way to modify the two core stats - Sluttiness and Obedience - permanently. Serum raises a girls suggestability, which is a measure of how quickly you can change her perception of "normal". What you do after a girls suggestability is raised decides how her stats change - if she has sex right away she'll come away from the encounter thinking that's acceptable behaviour and her sluttiness will go up.
"enjoying_update_response"
Well, I'm excited.
