X-Change™ Life [v.0.16] (2022) (Eng) [HTML]

Version 0.16
Began implementing the most-requested feature - sex with random NPCs - only in the gym and bar for now - will be adding more locations very soon
The scenes are slightly barebones at the moment, but there is foreplay, some dialogue, and huge amounts of variation for each encounter - literally millions of potential descriptions in the brand new sex description engine, to keep things fresh. And the descriptions react to the details of sex happening on screen
A new minigame, specifically for sex in public places. It's a variant of the "keep the bar in the middle" game, with also a green window moving back and forth. Keep the bar in the green window to maximize your character's pleasure (or escape the window, to minimize it).
This minigame is probably too processing-intensive to work well on mobile, so please do use the "skill check" option if you are on a phone or something. And if you're on PC and experiencing slowness, in play-testing Chrome has had the best performance.
NPCs with bigger dicks will cause more pleasure, but big dicks come with downsides...
Dynamic stripping based on what you're wearing - if you have a short skirt, for instance, you can just hike it up rather than go to the effort of taking it off. The choice is yours!
Oral sex and BJs also form a part of the scene now - they can help make the initial dick insertion easier - bigger dicks require more lubrication. Also, some NPCs are better at giving you oral than others, and some are more willing than others as well
The more noise you make, the bigger the chance of getting caught
There is a chance that your clothes might get torn when NPCs strip you, based on how flimsy your outfit is, and the personality of the NPC (selfish NPCs just want to get to the goods!)
If you're on a Breeder pill: it will be impossible to orgasm, unless you get a creampie. Once you start getting misfired / failed orgasms, your character will want to beg for a creampie. If you do get creampied on a Breeder, it is one of the best sensations known to humankind. Note that you can use a bit of serum to temporarily block these negative effects. Note that pregnancy content is not added yet, but is coming real soon.
The sex scene's hit on your masculinity varies depending on what you did during the scene
NPCs are much more fleshed out now (under the hood, at least), some even have multi-dimensional personalities. Building up to a future relationship system
Now, when doing the chores, you can wander the house and actually do them. You'll meet your stepdad and stepsister, who have their own activities they're doing, whether it's watching TV, practicing for yoga class, etc...
You can chat with your stepsister, who has 100s of dialogue lines based on what is currently happening in game. Will definitely be expanding this
If you do chores in the same room as your stepdad, he may start to get a lil' creepy (no stepdad sex yet though, I knew you were gonna ask) - though he may start peeking at you in the shower if you tempt him enough
Alexia and Leah from the bar, have started getting some actual voice acting here and there.
1000+ new audio / videos / pictures
NPCs all overhauled in the new art style - for the most part, they are all completely AI-generated, not based on real people anymore.
NPCs can now buy drinks for the female player at the bar
UI improvements
A lot of bugfixes
I'm in the process of trying to port this game from Harlowe 3.2.3 to the new Harlowe 3.3.0. Once I do this, I should be able to improve performance quite a bit using some of its new features. But as it stands, the game is still compiled under Harlowe 3.2.3, and you may encounter periodic slowness (depending on your device), especially as you new the 100-day mark in game. Please bear with me, it will get better.
Version 0.15f
This version is mainly continuing my media overhaul - I have re-edited 2,250 images, videos, and audio tracks since 0.15e... mainly new portraits, new images for the masculinity game, new images for the NPCs at the bar, etc. Too many things to list really.
7 more new original music compositions, super jazzy pieces that play when you're a girl on X-Change, in the morning
143 redone & new animations, many of these are not used yet, they are planned for future sex with random NPCs
Hairstyles now give you a charm buff, but will wash out if you take a shower
Cum from NPCs may ruin your hairstyle, or clothes - and you'll have to do laundry if the latter is the case. Unfortunately, to afford stain remover, you'll need to start helping with household expenses...
"Skippable Minigames" option now moved to cheat menu
More options have been added to the masculinity minigame, which is now switched on by default (but you can switch it off still)
Tripled the number of randomly-generated NPC penises
Version 0.15e
I've started overhauling the in-game images. For now, it's mainly the character portraits and outfits - I'll be doing more in future releases on a rolling basis, since it's a lot of work. I think I edited about 1000 images for this minor update.
I've added 7 new ORIGINAL music compositions for the daily morning music as a guy. 7 more are on their way for the female side.
Added a Radio shack with a purchasable computer
Added purchasable porn disks at the comics shop
Added a hair salon where you can change your hairstyle - currently purely cosmetic but will have gameplay effects later
Added 3 hidden-ish masturbation opportunities at the beach in the jungle trail, see if you can find them all, since they have unique animations
You can now masturbate as a guy, if you buy a computer and porn. The mainstream porn will turn you on more at first, but over time if you lose masculinity, you may end up liking the X-Change porn more. I plan to add more mechanics around this
Bug fixes, of course, too many to list...
Version 0.15d
This is hopefully the last of my quality of life updates, I will now be focusing on some more new scenes and progression
Finally added the ability to level up Intellect - it is based on the sales you make at the office job
All 3 major stats have been added to the stats screen so you can track your progress leveling them
Fixed issues with Charm leveling
Fixed issues with the Mia gym scene - now the shower noise doesn't play in the background upon playing it more than once
Added shame mechanics for the Mia gym scene where you masturbate at night
Made it so that when you masturbate at night due to shame, you can fulfill your side effect "obligations"
Added 54 new NPC dick pics to replace ones done in the old style
Resolved issues with your choice of activities for the day not carrying over when you change menus
Ability to get changed in the office - added a break room and a bathroom for getting changed.
Fixed a bug where outfits weren't being applied in the office.
Fixed a bug where "ashamed" orgasms weren't being counted towards side effects.
Fixed a bug where creampies were double-counted in game stats.
Fixed a bug where favorites from a previous character were carried over to a new character and breaking the wardrobe - now chosen outfits will be cleared every time you switch DNA
Fixed a bug where any fitness or charm lost comes back instantly upon gaining fitness or charm XP
Version 0.15c
This is mainly a quality of life update, but it should make your play experience much better.
Rewrote several in-game systems from the ground up, to fix problems with performance. Now the game is much more smooth and doesn't get bogged down as you play.
Revised character creation sheet, you can now allocate points freely rather than only rely on random rolls. However, max and min starting stats are limited based on your personality type. (i.e. a Nerd cannot have a low starting Intellect, or a high starting Fitness)
You can now give sales demos as a woman - you will just transform from one woman into another, and will transform back into a woman at the end.
Added 30+ cumshot animations.
Rewritten outfit system - you can now explicitly wear clothes, and the game will take you to a changing room if you're out. Added a lot more in-game documentation for how the outfits are selected, so that people shouldn't have the same issues as before.
Fixed issues with the side effects not working - now they do.
New music - daily music will change based on whether you're a guy or a girl, with more "girly" songs playing when you're on X-Change. Just a little subliminal thing!
Revised navigation in the Jungle - this is a prototype for "free-roam" sections of the game which are in the pipeline.
Tons of bug & performance fixes.
Version 0.15b
You can now unlock a new pill for sale at Dynapill - "Hot and Ready" - No sales demo yet, I am working on it - pill is unlockable after you've made 5 sales of other products
"Auto Note" feature at the sales job, where you can automatically take notes on a prospective client. Using this feature will take 15 minutes of the day's clock, and will be limited by your character's Intellect - in future a very "Bimbo" character may get things wrong somtimes, so keep your eyes peeled...
The option to negotiate higher payouts for blowjobs when monetary payment has been proposed
Tons of bugs squashed
Version 0.15a
1.2 million bugs fixed (approximate)
Clickable cheat codes instead of typing
New-U navigation much faster
Performance improvements
Refresh page to restart day
Version 0.15
3 new in-depth sex scenes have been added in the gym, with a whole new set of minigames around them - exclusive to the Rae Lil Black, Blake Blossom, and Autumn Falls characters. Look for gym outfits that have the tag "Unlocks a gym scene!" at the mall. Purchasing those outfits will unlock the scene, the first time you go to the gym as a female. I will be adding 7 more scenes as rolling updates, but wanted to baseline this version. By writing these scenes, I am building up the game's core sex mechanics, to prepare for the next big update, where sex with random NPCs will be enabled.
Fitness as a stat can now be leveled up
The New-U machine - allows you to switch characters. Sometimes, transforming in this machine will trigger side-effects though... some of which include:
Swallow cum daily, or the DNA change is permanent (you'll still change back into a guy, just a different guy...)
Orgasm daily, or the DNA change is permanent - just means you gotta masturbate once per day
Swallow cum daily, or the effect will wear off the next morning, regardless of its set length
Orgasm daily, or the effect will wear off the next morning
Submissive Pleasure - you will experience a lot more pleasure in passive sex positions, making the gym sex scenes quite difficult
Libido overdrive - your arousal will build quickly over time - this could be more of a pro than a con, who knows!
Breeder effects
Stat drain
Charm as a stat can now be leveled up by performing the "persuasion" minigame
There is a toggle in the menu to make all minigames skippable, for those who just want to see "content"
Identity hitting 0 is now a game over
A lot of redone animations
Tons of other things I can't think of at the moment
Version 0.14c
Native saving/loading from file, written by the genius HiEv! Now this is natively built into the game rather than using the Local Storage Manager. To my knowledge, this is now the first Harlowe game ever with this functionality.
Version 0.14b
Ability to wear / not wear underwear - it's a flag you can click in the Wardrobe
Performance fixes - found a memory leak that causes the game to slow down over time. Please let me know if you experience any other dips in performance, I have recruited a Twine Harlowe expert to help out on those sorts of things now
If you hover your mouse over the portrait screen, it will also now show a list of the clothes you're wearing. Previously, there was no way to know what lingerie you were wearing lol. Now at least you'll see "bra" and "panties" listed out lol - I promise I'll flesh out checking out your outfit more in future!
Lots of little bug fixes. If you experience issues in the clothes shopping store, enter cheat code "new stock" to refresh the store inventory in the cheat code menu (Menu -> Game Settings -> Pager icon)
A jаvascript scrollbar that is actually half decent! To help those experiencing issues with stuff being too large sometimes. Let me know if UI problems persist though.
New button icons to match the style of the rest of the UI
Version 0.14a
Made UI tweaks for various screen resolutions. Lemme know if you spot anything weird.
Added an "information" screen in the X-Change pharmacy
Fixed several bugs
Version 0.14
Outfits! 600+ outfits, about 60 unique for each character have been added. Appropriate outfits are randomly chosen from your wardrobe for appropriate situations. However, you can favorite outfits you want your character to select, and they will always pick those.
Beachwear - bikinis etc, used for the beach.
Officewear - professional clothes, can boost your charm at work.
Casualwear - mainly for going out to the mall, can be used for many situations. There's cute ones, sexy ones, slutty ones, and super low effort relaxed ones!
Stylish clothes - for going out to the bar. Dress to impress!
Lingerie - for wearing under your clothes and getting some much needed breast support (note that only huge-titted characters really need boob support, it has very little gameplay impact)
Fetishwear (not yet used in context) - will be used for impressing your paramours
Loungewear - for wearing around the house and sleeping in. May give random "well rested" bonuses if you get a comfy set of PJs
People will sometimes comment on your outfits
A new shop at the mall for buying outfits - Bonwit Teller (it's a defunct department store that closed in the 1990s, that is now brought back in this retro future!)
A wardrobe which lets you browse your outfits, and favorite them for specific purposes. You may annoy your stepdad if you are a bit too slutty in your lounging outfit choices
If you have large breasts, your boobs may jiggle and get a bit sore if you walk around with no support. Tiny little debuff every once in a while, but you gotta think about it now :)
Comfy clothes will sometimes make you feel extra nice and give you little random boosts!
I also made a lot of non-outfit related updates...
New set of icons (by the wonderful TG artist Crown Cosmo, give her a follow on Twitter!)
1000+ new images, a lot of upgraded animations and better compressed videos. I still have a lot of work to do on older videos
Audio voice lines for a lot of taunts in the Masculinity Minigame! Like 100 voice lines to make you feel guilty about that cock you just sucked. Or not...
The option to save to a file! Using HiEv's WONDERFUL Local Storage Manager, which HiEv gave me permission to include in this release.
Billions of bug fixes
My blood, sweat and tears are really in this update so be nice to me! I got my Patreon shut down over the game's content, they wanted me to make changes I wasn't willing to make. So I switched over to SubscribeStar.

Version 0.13c
New combo mechanics to make the arrows minigame more fun.
A lot of bug fixes
UI improvements for mobile devices - the mobile experience is still far from perfect, but try the "Request Desktop Version of Site" option for an improvement
Version 0.13

Sex skill experience system. This allows you to skip playing minigames (if desired) by making a dice roll instead.
Your chance of success is based at how good you are at the current sex action (blowjobs, orgasm control, cowgirl, etc). And each time you use those skills, they improve.
You gain more XP in each skill when you play the minigames, and you also earn more if you have a higher score multiplier, which you get by having an initially weak character.
New sex scene. I didn’t advertise I was going to do this, but I wrote a VERY VERY JUICY new foursome scene that will showcase a few new sex mechanics, that I will be working to integrate into the randomized encounters later. This scene is unlockable after "failing" the stripper scene by getting cummed on. Enjoy!
Hardcore mode for minigames. I made most minigames a tad easier by default, and added a new optional hard mode. Earn a little more XP if you switch iton.
Menu. I made a quite basic menu system, where you can toggle settings, view stats, etc. I’ll continue expanding this. FYI, saving the game is now accessible from the menu screen rather than main game screens.
3 save slots instead of 1. Self-explanatory. If you have any trouble with saves, I highly recommend clearing your browser cache, although this will remove your previous save data.
Blackjack improvements. I replaced a lot of instances of blackjack with the “keep the bar in the middle” game, but I also made the blackjack scoring a bit fairer so it’s a lot easier to win now.
Minigame option if you want to reject a guy. No matter how high your arousal, you can turn down a guy’s request for a BJ if you beat a relatively easy minigame. I just wanted to portray the struggle of being super turned on, without locking the player into a scene they don’t want. (There’s also the safeword option you can toggle on to avoid anything!)
Image / video improvements. I replaced maybe 100 images / videos with improved version. I cycled out some of the NPC images with AI-generated fake faces, and will continue replacing more in future.
A LOT of other little fixes.
Introduced new bugs, probably…
Version 0.12a (hotfix - as requested this is a patch release, you need to have 0.12 arlaready to use 0.12a)

Made sales demos easier to get, now you will always have the option to give a demo for an increased commission.
Sales commissions are slightly higher and you'll also be able to perform slightly fewer actions. These are not extreme changes yet.
Added more cumshot animations. These animations were already present in 0.12, but not linked in game so unused, now they are used.
Random groping no longer happens if you have the "Safeword" setting turned on. It seemed out of place in that style of playthrough.
Fixed a bunch of bugs: Basic pills that didn't run out after several days, issue with the tip jar, and 3-4 other random small ones
Version 0.12

The most-requested feature: ability to skip blackjack minigames. Now they can be settled by a D&D style skill check or random dice roll. If you have really high charm, you can breeze past the vast majority of sales checks, for instance. I may add these options to other minigames as well in future but Blackjack was the biggest issue for most people, so I did it first.
A "Safeword" toggle in the character sheet. If you set this to Enabled, you will get an option during most scenes and encounters, to exit the scene regardless of your arousal, etc. This feature is intended to respect those who don't like being forced into sexual situations by their characters' pill or arousal addled brains. But for those who like this sort of content, the option is off by default, so you will not experience anything different.
An audio toggle. Three options: all audio on, all audio off, or music only off.
Some other minor improvements and optimizations.
Version 0.11

Random encounters, overheard comments, and thoughts as a girl when you're on X-Change.
Random NPC generator, it is a thing of beauty and horror! There are literally millions of possible guys you will meet, all with quite different personalities.
Mood mechanics - for now, moods are just bad. I'll add some positive moods as well, but right now they are stat debuffs based on things that happened in the random encounters. Need to flesh it out more, which will be easy to do.
If you're really ashamed of something you've done (like blown a random guy), you'll masturbate at night. If you cum thinking about the guy, you'll lose a lot of identity points.
A bunch of tweaks and optimizations
New option to switch off masculinity minigame entirely, if you don't like it. Did this based on some feedback, so the people who like it can leave it on.
A lot more things that increase arousal. I may have gone overboard with this...
I'm in the process of overhauling the Gym. Now it's a morning event, and "pumps you up", giving you some pretty big buffs throughout the day. This buff also protects you against certain bad moods. Still no increase of fitness but that will come soon...
I added a new layer to standard blowjob quicktime events. Now, they are a little easier, but you have a TIME TARGET. You need to make the blowjob last a certain amount of time, in order to be considered succcessful. This keeps you from just rushing through it, that wouldn't be fun! You gotta use proper technique now.
