I cannot believe it's been a year since we did a proper update on not only the game, but also on our lives as developers!
So much has happened in the past year! COVID not withstanding, it's been a year of reflection, visibility and major life choices for us!
No doubt, the next year will be just as full - and we promise not to wait an entire year before our next game and life update!
Without furthur ado...
On October 8, 2018, we released our first demo on Steam (although Steam records our launch date as Oct 23). We were so excited to be accepted onto such a visible platform and have the potential to reach lots of new players.
Around the same time, we launched on Itch.io.
Both platforms have given us amazing, new fan communities to engage with and provided addtional funds on top of Patreon to fund the work of our resident artist, Just Jeff, our composer, Fflewddeur Fflam, and our scene fluffer, Headphone Taco.
Over the past year, we've been lucky enough to work with some talented voice artists, Bordeaux Black, HiJenx, and Midnight Datura, who brought the Headmistress' Theatre to life, as well as received help from several writers (Cregg, Twysper, Aterger) and translators (Kathi, Maxanas, Avrora, and Kayet95).
To celebrate our 3-year anniversary, we are releasing our Rewards Only update tomorrow, October 23, on Steam and Itch.
This update will include three new reward scenes, so keep an eye out for the announcement tomorrow.
Although we did not plan it this way, our three year anniversary coincides with two huge life changes for Deviant Dev and I!
Relocating to the United States
After 6 years living in New Zealand, we've decided it's time for us to return to the United States. We are driven by a desire to be closer to family in a COVID-isolated world and to find a way to have new adventures in spite of it.
We're originally from California, but we plan to call Louisiana home for the next little while. Time for some Mardi Gras, Jazz and Southern cooking!!
The decision to move home has opened up another amazing opportunity...
Devilish Domina Full Time on the Game
I have decided to take advantage of the opportunity to switch from a career working on business projects to working full-time on the game!
At one point, we thought we might be able to free Deviant Dev up to work on the game 100% of the time, but he's recently started a new role that he loves and so I will take advantage of this life transition to invest more time in growing Dominatrix Simulator and engaging with our amazing community of fans!!
We'll be in transition for the next few months, but once that settles down, you can expect to see me around every day on Discord or posting more frequently on Twitter, Reddit and Patreon.
We continue to be honored and awed by the amazing fans who find us and take time out to share with us their thoughts about the game!
We love all of the feedback because it gives us new ideas we may not have thought of and challenges us to do better and push harder.
Your support, of any type, means the world to us. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
