Блудник / Whoremonger NTE [Act 1.10] (2022) (Rus/Eng) [Ren'Py] [Linux] [Android] [Demo] [Turning Tricks]

Whoremonger NTE - Act 1.10 - 2024-02-25
BUG FIX – Fixed variable that flags if you accepted invitation to the VIP lounge or not, on day 3.
BUG FIX – Fixed bug where, if you were not on Mei’s path, it caused an Dev placeholder scene to show when doing laundry on day 7. That scene saying you had an issue with variables was left over from when I built it. The scene should play properly now.
BUG FIX – Fixed a missed flag that was supposed to be set when you meet Maddie for the first time.
First Easter Eggs added to gallery!
Eight secret renders are hidden in the game so far. To find the Easter eggs, you need to click their secret locations. These locations are invisible and will be difficult to find. We don’t want to make them too easy to find, so you won’t see them glowing when you mouser-over; like some other games. Instead, look at the renders and keep an eye open for things that should catch your attention and try clicking on them.
When you find a secret render, it will show on your screen and a victory trumpet will sound. Click the icon that appears in the upper right to continue the game and the render you just found will now be in the last set of your gallery – the one with the golden egg thumbnail.
Subscribers and those who bought the game on Itch.io, will get the locations in the included walkthrough.

Whoremonger NTE - Act 1.01
What's the Same?
The core story and most of the renders are the same as the original version. What I did though was change this from the pseudo-sandbox type of game it was before, into a pure Visual Novel format that is much easier to read and play.
It’s not a kinetic VN though. You have to make many choices in this game, and each of those choices will either set you on a specific path, or change some of the content you see.
What's Different?
So much more! Not only are there over 300 new images that I made, but there is also 10,000 new words of dialogue, 29 new music and sound files, and thousands of lines of new code for features and improvements. Also, there's no patches required anymore... fuck that! This VN is openly incest themed! *grin*
So, even though this is still officially “Act I” of this story, it’s an almost completely new version of Act I, with much richer dialogue, a couple of new scenes (including a major Lewd scene) more features, added renders and many other improvements! And there is a gallery now!
As well, 19,000 lines of code were completely re-written in the background. I’ve learned a lot over the last couple of years and applied that to this new version. Not only will this make Whoremonger better running, with fewer bugs (I hope!), it also provides a framework where I can easily add new content moving forward. That’s because I am planning on finishing this story! It sat abandoned for far too long.
And, even with all the new content and improvements; because I converted all the images to WEBP format, the Build size for this version is still over 110MB smaller than the original while keeping the images at the same quality! With luck, I might be able to finish this story and still slip under the 2GB file limit in Android. (I haven’t done an Android build yet, but that’s on my To-Do list for next update)
What's Ahead?
My plan is to alternate my work between Whoremonger and my newer project, A Dark Horse Riding. I’ve learned from other Devs that this is one of the best ways to avoid burn-out on one project. Instead, after each content update, I’ll switch to the other project. I started re-doing Whoremonger around January 10th or so, and it was probably the most work I have crammed into four weeks ever! But it totally recharged my interest and got my creative juices flowing again.
So look for the next update in Dark Horse in about a month or so, and then back to this one.

February 9th 2024,
Hey everyone. I am proud to release this completely new version of Whoremonger for you all! After I got derailed over a year ago, by that crowd funding platform that shall remain nameless, I was pretty bitter and couldn't deal with this game for a while. Instead, i eventually started working on a new project (Please check it out in "Other Games" below) That helped me regain my interest in continuing to learn and improve my VN developing skills.
I was always sad that I had left this game abandoned though, so after Christmas, and my release of Chapter 1 of my other project A Dark Horse Riding, I decided to jump back on this story. That Change Log above goes over the details, but suffice it say that this is NOT the original Act I of Whoremonger you may have already played. It's using the same core story, renders and characters, but I completely re-wrote everything underneath the hood, so to speak. Gone is the pseudo-sandbox attempt. The story flows much better now and I wrote 10,000 new words of dialogue to make it better.
I am going to finish Whoremonger! I have new crowdfunding sources and I really hope some of you enjoy this VN enough to help me with some support, so I can invest in some new hardware. Just this release today took me a month of 10+ hour days of work, for example. Moving forward, I plan on releasing future WM updates to my subscribers ahead of the general public here. And it will always be posted on Itch right away for a small fee, for those that don't want to wait the couple of weeks before it drops here. I am dropping it today only a couple of days after releasing it to my subs... because I wanted all the players who enjoyed this game and who waited patiently for over a year, to see progress started again finally.
So enjoy!
