Outbreak Games: Snow Daze 1.0 release out now!

[Dead2112man]

I must say, great job on the voice acting front, sad that it was only the first day, but can't wait to hear how those bad paths sound on the rest of the days.

As a hypnokink game, this is delightful.

But for whatever reason, there's something about the dynamic with Jane that makes me feel guilty in ways that the other three don't.

Thanks for following along with the game, enjoy!

I really enjoyed this in spite of the genre and themes. VNs generally don't keep my interest, but thanks to the humor and sexy and ingenious dialog, this did. Incest games had turned me off so far not because of the taboo, but because the hack writers couldn't stop hammering on it with every tortuously contrived line of monologue/dialogue. This established the characters enough to identify them and their relations, then let the story flow organically organically enough from it that further reference to them felt natural.

So when's the next Overwhored, huh, huh? RPG format is much better gameplay, and as far as wish fulfillment fantasies go, it shows imagination that doesn't sit around the house reaching for low hanging fruit.

EDIT: I'm really amazed at how your art team has developed over this project. And browsing through the art revealed some of the thoughtful and humorous blink-and-you'll-miss-it details that I missed, especially in how the backgrounds reflected the changes in the character's inner life day-to-day.

Fantastic game so far, and the audio is top notch!

I've put together a spoiler free guide through day 3. Has anyone beaten K-15, S-16, N-13, J-12? Would be happy to update with your choices!

[Cypress_z]

Hi everyone! Just a quick bit of news and an update!

There's a release going free next month that has day 2 voices, new style chibi art and three day one chibi scenes were expanded to full scenes. It'll go free on the 10th.

Additionally chapter 4 will be released late next month to patrons. I've moved to having payments process before people are able to access a post, and it's on a monthly schedule. So if you want access to day 4 early you'll have to pledge before the 1st. Otherwise day 4 will go free to the public in late august.

After day 4 only two releases will remain. Night 4, a bonus mini-"day", and Day 5 which will end the game. We're almost done, everyone! We've basically only got 1.5 releases to go, and we'll be done before the year is. Thanks to everyone that has helped contribute to making this. It wouldn't be possible without you.

Just thought you all might like to get a little taste of what's gonna come up on Day 4. Still a work in progress, but it's easy to see how eager Noelle is to have a good workout with Jane. Day 4 is gonna come out late this month for patrons, and to the public at the start of September.

[Cypress_z]

Hi all, I'm here with a brand new version of the game for the public! I'm also working on another version, day 4 will be out this month to patrons and late next month for free. This version is similar to the original version but has new chibi art, replacements for three day one chibi scenes and voice acting through day two.

I recently started a discord for discussion of the games and such. Feel free to stop on by!

Just a head's up, Day 4 will go out to the public for free tomorrow! We'll also be putting another version up for patrons that has voice acting up to day 3 (the public release only goes to 2) and tons of little changes and fixes.

Have a preview of the new outfits you'll see in day 4! There are new sex scenes as well.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

I hope you all enjoy it! I'll link it here tomorrow.

[Cypress_z]

The newest version is now public! Enjoy days 1-4 in all their glory.

EDIT: I hope people really are enjoying it. People here don't really talk about the game anymore.

It's a fun game, just rather short right now.

Been waiting for this release, I will probably play through again to see what all has changed, but remembering the correct answers is a pain, lol.

This game is great and I love it, don't get me wrong. The thing is that is a pretty linear game (nothing wrong with that, but it's doesn't foment the discussion) and due to the extensive care that you take in adding/changing costumes/chibis or voice acting, the release pace doesn't help either to generate conversation.

For my part, I find this game pretty hot (it reminds a little of the works of Pan), but I'm reluctant to play it until it's completed.

Before I forgot, thanks for creating this game.

[rpgfan650]

The lack of discussion is probably related to lack of different things in the game. If you ignore story progression, there's no difference between the days. Except for how many points you can earn with each character. After 3 replays of Day one, I didn't care about those points in Day two, I only played it once. Never downloaded Day Three. As for Day 4, I haven't decided. I have no real desire to play it. If I had to recommend one of your games it would be Overwhored.

Snow Daze will be complete in December. I'm starting pre-production work for Overwhored now, so if that's your preference you might enjoy watching our artists stream.

F-ing will stream a playthrough of Overwhored tonight.

Pan helped write the first two days, so that's natural!

I have two fun announcements today! The first is a new free version of the game. The second is that another story segment will be out for players on Tuesday - Night 4, a short bonus chapter with one scene, but what a scene!

The new public release has full voice acting through day 3 and has increased dramatically in visual quality. The portraits are also more lifelike and blink, too! We've also begun hosting public releases on itch.io. Now those people who want to give once somewhere other than Patreon can!

Now let's talk about the release coming up, Night 4!
First, let's show off some costumes! Let's just say that their day 5 outfits are fully corrupt.

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

And now for the scene itself!

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Oh hey look, they're in those day 5 outfits. Night 4 will be a mini-night with one scene. It's a special bonus that got made as a result of the patreon income coming up and giving me the ability to hire people more. So to all of you patrons looking at this you have my sincerest thanks.


I can without a doubt say this is the finest picture in the game so far. We've got a new pencil artist, Idlecum, who did the base sketches. We've also added Polisummer and Tippi of Kyungeki workshop to the game who has made this new version absolutely gorgeous in high resolution.

The new version will come out on Patreon on Tuesday. Until then enjoy this updated public release!

...but will Sarah ever have sex with that dog?!

...but will Sarah ever have sex with that dog?!

Honestly no. There'll never be bestiality in my stuff. That said I'm happy to include petplay. I might even do furry costumes for the characters sometime that make them furry, because it would be hilarious to make Sarah a furry catgirl. That's the extent of where I'll go though.

[Cypress_z]

It's that time again! A new public release of Snow Daze! This one has the story content for Night 4. Patrons have access to a special version with voice acting for Night 4.

There's new art, new story, and new content. Chapter 5 will come out next month, enjoy this for now!

Also in case you missed it we recently made a minigame, Kissing Therapy. Give it a look here!
