Bondage System and VFX Rework
🕑 Added 2023-06-09 17:17:33 +0000 UTCAfter refactoring the body physics system into the new framework in 0.7.3, basically all technical obstacles with the development work after rebuilding have been lifted and we are finally back on track to deliver new contents steadily after three months of firefighting.
I was awkwardly silent on Patreon during the period because there's not much I can say in my defense, we should have run way longer sessions of preview tests with a way larger pool of QA testers before pushing it to steam. It was a release disaster that could have been avoided.
Back to the topic. After some trial and error, we have decided that due to the incompatibility between the old particle system and the new framework, it may be a better option to abandon the idea of integrating the old body fluids system, instead we have opted to develop a new VFX system specifically tailored for the new framework.
The gif file #1 showcases the new spanking effect. We aim to complete a new set of VFX for body fluids and sex scene VFX in update 0.7.4 before end of month.
Bondage system is also being worked on. As shown in gif #2 our goal is to make all interactions seamlessly connected, so if the player chooses to switch the hole to use during banging the male character will actually pull out and insert as commanded before starting humping again. And we are also adding female led special actions and orgasm variations for the bondage sex scenes in 0.7.4.
Additionally, we are overhauling the homepage so it's easier for new patrons to claim the steam key and activate the game. If you have questions or want to report a bug, please join our discord server and submit a ticket.

do not buy its a scam

This game has been in development since 2016, and zero mention of any backstory of any kind in that time. I highly doubt this is a real project anymore. They're spending thousands on denuvo per month/ per user. And have spent well over a year implementing nothing but gotcha mechanics. This IS a scam. The "game" they want YOU TO PAY TO DEVELOP is a game where you have to grind OR pay NOT to grind. All while being connected to some server "somewhere" with a bunch of dudes.

Erm, well let's get into this.. Project Helius(the scammer) has created 2 games under this name and in this Patreon sub: Fallen Doll and Operation Lovecraft. The original game, Fallen Doll, has been discontinued and is for the most part GONE. (you can find it on websites like f95 and others). But as for getting it from Project Helius, that will be impossible. MANY assets from this game are being used as BRAND NEW CONTENT for their new game, they wouldn't want people knowing they are taking our money and importing stuff from their old game. Operation Lovecraft, which is this game, can only be downloaded through Steam.

用故事讓人物更有帶入感，那種用收集卡片的性愛提卻是一種災難，反而用劇情或真正的性愛遊玩體驗，而不是重複長時間枯燥的看著，看太久而厭煩的重複動作，重回製作一款好玩的遊戲，才不會讓你們這麼精美的美術浪費掉

does anyone know how to access their fallen doll origin game from their website? it doesnt seem to exist.
JB106
Apparently (I just found out), it was confirmed on Discord that Gallery was cancelled.

Aun sin poder acceder al juego no se que hacer

Plus we already paid for the game... now we pay to progress? Thats a rip off. But wiuldnt be surprised if they stooped that low.
Chrnc_MastrBatr
The Patreo. Pays for most. The gatcha stuff hasnt been recoeved well enough judging by all thr comments from most posts
JB106
I'd like for it to turn into at least a game, that would be cool. oooooo what if we could get a story? that'd be cool too.
JB106
steam key is beta. add key in steam. Get ready for some "awesome" multiplayer online only gotcha...
JB106
I sometimes wonder how people who started donating to this project 7 years ago feel.. When will we get gameplay. Probably never, now that we have gotcha.
JB106
They don't do that anymore, even when that was a perk there they didn't do it, or stopped doing it by the time I subbed. They haven't done bundles or polls in months(AFAIK). And there are no Patreon builds or ways of downloading past builds, or games for that matter... Just Steam and just the version that's currently active. Once you've given +$36 on Patreon, go to https://www.projecthelius.com connect your patreon account, return to website above and click claim key. Use Key in Steam. It can take 15minutes to two hours for the patreon's link to the website to update before it gives you a key.
JB106
That stuff just gets people in the door, the online gotcha pays the bills and Denuvo stops anyone from playing the game without paying for every outfit. They won't update it.
JB106
I can't wait until the servers go down. This pay to "rent" a game thing sucks.
larry12yr
oh thanks bro
Chrnc_MastrBatr
So.... about vr? I can understand that development being staggard, but what about Gallery/Offline mode? Any new Animations coming? For those not wanting to grind in Harem.

Jade Aion
Teasing us with that wallpaper. Can't wait to start seeing how gameplay will be. Especially the combat system. Keep doing good work. Just amazing work and detail you are putting into this. Good Job.
Project Helius

Project Helius

I'm having trouble claiming steam key. I've done an accumulative pledge for a total of $36. It's been several days.

We are not interested in VFX improvements or games. What many fans are waiting for is the implementation of new characters, new costumes and VR. Can you please make it like a sound box first as a milestone?
Aden :/
This bondage animation looks way better
Project Helius
Yes. For all beta.
Wametrewam
Hi is 1 month member at 36USD give access to close beta ? for 1 month or all beta time ?
Eric
check the website and link you patreon.

In our last interaction you said " Wedding dresses will be available to everyone after reaching max affinity level with an investigator, so we replaced them with apparel pieces." So THAT perk (Alet: Heartfelt Vows Time: 2022-06-30 ~ 2022-07-31) was removed and won't be in a bundle? And you never told anyone about that. Until I asked. I haven't received ANY parts of bundles for the 2 limited time bundles I claimed. Time: 2022-06-30 ~ 2022-07-31(https://www.patreon.com/posts/53105796): Alet: Heartfelt Vows Erika: Agent 355 Galatea: Summertime Lily Dr.Anya: Yuggoth Expeditionist Time: 2022-12-25 ~ 2023-01-25(https://www.patreon.com/posts/48032500): Erika - Orthodox Bunny Girl Alet - Boyfriend's Shirt Dr.Anya - Year of the Ox Galatea - Unboxing Boxing Day (**UNDERSTANDABLE ABOUT NOT HAVING GALATEA APPAREL, SHES NOT RELEASED A CHARACTER YET**)

Project Helius, please check my refund message in dm.
vitor
how do i get my steam key?
Project Helius
Those are preorder bundles only available to patrons who pledged before cbt 2 and claimed the bundle during a specific month. Patrons who claimed them during that time window will receive the bundle immediately via in game mails and don't need to grind for it.
JB106
REmoving Perks without telling your Patreons is Fucked up.
JB106
HELIUS!: Wait am I understanding that "Time Limited Rewards" that are listed as one of the paid patreon perks is not a perk that you had to claim before it expired but something that everyone has to grind to get? Or is it just for that ONE specific bundle? Are you going to be replacing it with something else or is that perk just gone? Because I have other claimed rewards that also haven't been redeemed(eg:https://www.patreon.com/posts/48032500).

Ah it said 36 AUD was needed. It was pledged in AUD though. That could possibly be the issue
Project Helius
hang on, it is supposed to be calculated in usd, and you pledged in AU, that could be the reason.
Noise
No problem. It's been over an hour but I'll check it again later on. Thanks for your help
Project Helius
oh normally you need to wait an hour or so for Patreon to confirm your pledge
Noise
Hi there. I just joined up and pledged $40, I'm still unable to receive the steam key, I initially signed up for the bottom tier but changed it straight away, is there an issue with it registering my payment etc? Thanks
Project Helius
yes
Hints Lam
So i need to upgrade the membership or what ?
Aden :/
You need to pledge $36 min to get the key
Project Helius
oh it shows that you pledged a total of 8 usd. you need a total pledge of at least 36 usd to claim the key.

"After refactoring the body physics system into the new framework in 0.7.3, basically all technical obstacles with the development work after rebuilding have been lifted and we are finally back on track to deliver new contents steadily after three months of firefighting." I'll believe it when I actually see it.
