The latest version of Ruin Me is now available to patrons! The new Patreon version adds a new training sequence in exhibitionism, a sex scene with a secondary NPC where she doms you, and the ability to be nonbinary. The new free version has a whole bunch of stuff, including new customization for the player and the training subject, new play scenes, and a continuation of the Act 2 storyline.
You can always get the current free version on itch.io:
Please note: to upgrade on desktop, unzip the archive into a new directory. Your saves should carry over. Do not unzip over the previous version, as this can cause bugs.
If you want behind-the-scenes design notes, previews of upcoming releases, new versions as soon as they’re released, and the ability to vote on priorities or submit new random snippets, sign up to my Patreon!
Become a Patron!Version 0.9.0, currently patron-only, adds:
- A new training sequence in Exhibitionism that brings Theresa from Depravity 2 to 3. This includes a new outfit for Theresa.
- A play scene with Esther where she doms you, accessible by visiting her elsewhere in the mansion once you’ve encountered her once. This comes along with a full revision of Esther’s art.
- The ability to have a nonbinary gender; characters will refer to you with “they” pronouns. If you have an existing save, you can change your gender at the mirror in your bedroom.
- Actual implementations of Theresa’s “self-degradation” and “begging” greetings and her “edging” and “orgasm” routines, since they’re now unlocked.
- An enhancement so that Reminisce entries for training scenes now have a brief summary of the scene.
- A change so you can no longer train a stat unless other stats are caught up; to start Depravity 2, other stats must be at 1.
- An improvement so training sequences now notify you that stats have increased when completed.
Version 0.8.1 is now free and adds:
- A story event involving the Ritual of Agrat, which is available once Theresa’s stats are all at 2. It progresses the Byatis storyline and includes a weird sex ritual!
- A change to the mirror in your bedroom to give a summary of your gender and appearance. You can retcon your skin color and change your gender there.
- Tracking for the status of your chest: either you have breasts, or the game will refer to your “chest”. If you have an existing save, women with a vulva are set to have breasts and all others are assumed to have none.
- The “Give Theresa a Spanking”, “Abuse Theresa While She Gives Manual Sex”, and “Receive Breast Play” play scenes. The lattermost scene is only available if you have breasts.
- The Strange Laboratory mansion exploration, unlocked by spending Ken once Act 2 has begun. Note that at this point you have a method for gaining Ken faster. This location provides basic anatomy customization.
- The ability to customize how Theresa greets you, done in her chambers under the new “propose a change” menu. She will now use a random greeting, chosen from the pool you select.
- The ability to customize Theresa’s nightly routine, done in her chambers under the new “propose a change” menu. If you choose one, she will report on her progress the first time you meet her each day. The orgasm denial option can result in a brief scene if you’re lucky.
- Nomenclature choices for Theresa’s breasts, your own breasts, and semen. I also reorganized the nomenclature menu under the “propose a change” menu.
- A brief scene where your basic BDSM supplies are recovered, intended to occur during the Sadomasochism training sequence. If you’ve already finished that sequence, you’ll get the scene out-of-order the next time you’re in the mansion entryway.
- A change to move the “Additional topic of education” option to inside the “Let’s work on your training” menu.
- A facial cumshot state to Theresa’s kneeling pose (and an update to the Manual Sex training scenes to use it).
- A change to make forms of address for Theresa lowercase when appropriate.
- A revision to Theresa’s kneeling POV art from 0.8.0, to fix some anatomy and perspective issues.
