Life Choices [v0.8.8.70] By Burningsun

Burningsun Games released a new game called Life Choices and the version is 0.8.8.70. The game’s story is about You’ve lived all your life in a small village adjacent to The Lake District. You never really been to a big city as mum and dad told you Liverpool and Manchester were full of dangers. But a week after you turned 17 you’re parents got divorced and you were forced to choose who to live with. There was no right or wrong choice, still whatever choice you wanted to make felt wrong, as if you were cheating on the other parent. So that is the start and a year later Lizzy ends up in Amsterdam. Will she be able to not fall into the dangerous downward spiral of drugs, sex, prostitution and the like? It is up to you.

V0.8.8.70

Version 0.8.8.70 ‘Last Christmas’ 25/12/2024

Changed the hard setting to now also have the ‘Go to work button’. – You need to thank BBZ01 for that one
Reworked the Club passages. They now have been updated with new code like other areas like the beach or the pub.
The existing random events now happen when navigating through the club, like when Lizzy navigates from one part of the city to the next.
The toilets can now be visited as a seperate area, just like the bar and the dancefloor and the entrance/main area.
Almost all events have been reworked/updated/rewritten in some way or another.
Lizzy can now choose to have pubic hair or not at the start of the game. It only has effect on her body choice and look for now. Not on the video’s etc. so solely for RP purposes. This may change in the future but I don’t really think it will ever have an impact on a large part of the story.
Lizzy can now pay for a complete makeover at the salon. Complete means that Lizzy can chance her Avatar, Body and pubic hair, even though that is not very immersive. This will help her reduce fame drastically and at the same time improve her hair and her nails as if a normal treatment was purchased. Be aware though that the more often she uses it, the less impact the fame reduction will have. – ty mogon for this idea!
Added five more Avatars to chose from.
Added three more bodytypes to chose from. If anyone has a nice toned/sporty body I could use let me know.
Added a new weird event at the beach while walking.
Updated the Dance School passages. Simplified the code, fixed some inconsistencies and now Lizzy actually needs to have proper clothes in order to be able to join a lesson. Additionally, Lizzy now can take Jazz dancing lessons, thought there is no use for this yet. – ty BBZ01 for pointing out the clothing need.
Reduced the cost of the Maid costume.
Added a tracker to show how many cliens Lizzy serviced behind Mo’s window.
Linked up some more events tied to the choices at the start of the game; Golden showers etc. If you have any that need to be added let me know.
The beauty girl now starts with 10 Fitness in stead of 5 (so she can enter the club from the start… she still needs to ‘find’ it though).
Corrected some of the hints for Faoud’s story. – ty BBZ01
When Lizzy works the streets, she now no longer can keep going even though her energy is at 0. Slightly decreased the payout and slightly decreased the chance to find a John. – ty BBZ01 for ideas, hints and checks!
Lizzy can now apply sunscreen when lying on a towel in the park. She will tan or burn now when on the towel in the park – ty Skyllah
Summer story continued with 2 more events. It will bring the relation to 40? if played right. Lizzy does need to have a phone as otherwise Summer will not be able to call her! Event at 10 Rel changed and is now checking if Lizzy has a phone or not. This means that the story can only be progressed if Lizzy has a phone at that point.
When Lizzy works behind the window, she now more likely gets normal/friendly customers, rather than horrible ones. The chance to get horrible ones decreased and also made it more clear when it is a horrible one.
When Lizzy starts working behind the window for Mo, the first four to five times she does so, will have a special event which will ‘help’ her get used to the work. These events are over 15.000 words and somehow has taken me ages, absolutely ages to write. Ugh not sure why but it just did. I literally mean at least a hundred hours! Glad it is done as it adds a lot to the story imho. Hope you like it. BEWARE; Missing vids. UGH!!!! I accidently deleted all the vids/images for these events. So there are placeholders for now…. will get them added nex time bah!
Added a condom vending machine in the RLD toilets which Lizzy can visit if needed. Condoms are a lot more expensive here though.
You can no longer meet Bibi in the pub if you have not met her befrore. – ty Shadey99

Developer Notes:

Road Map:
V0.8.8.45 – ‘All the small things’ (Est. 25/12/2021)

This will be a small update which I plan to release still this year; so on, or before Christmas.
It will be a few small updates which should have been in the Mo-storyline update (V0.8.8.40) like:
1. Andrei visiting Lizzy behind the window
2. Possibility for Helen to find out about Lizzy’s side job
3. Mo to visit Lizzy when she is not working
And a few more little things like that.

V0.8.8.50 – ‘From Paris with Love!’ (Est. 31/03/2022)

YES, apart from some small stuff, I plan to open up Paris in this update. Obviously, it will not be finished, nor will it be hours of playtime once I open it, but it will be possible for Lizzy to run away to Paris instead of Amsterdam once this update is launched. Paris will have a lot of different stuff happening. Mark my words!

V0.8.8.60 – unknown at this time. Likely Paris updates mixed in with Amsterdam ones.

V0.8.8.70 – ‘I just called’

This update would solely be about the introduction (finally) of the phone system. It is a huge piece of work and possible just as big, if not bigger, than the pregnancy update. I want it to work in a few ways:
1. You should be able to call anyone at any time in order to do a number of things; e.g. quit your job, just call for a chat, invite people on a date or for a coffee etc
2. You should be able to be called at any given time by anyone you know. They can call you for a number of reasons; e.g. to invite you for dinner, on a date, to chat, or more interesting stuff like asking for selfies, nude selfies, making you do jobs for them etc etc.
As you perhaps can imagine it is a huge piece of work, so it may not come in this update, but it is my goal to do so!

V0.8.8.80 – unknown at this time. Likely Paris updates mixed in with Amsterdam ones.

V0.8.8.90 – ‘Work Sucks – Part 3’
The library job and the Flower job have been ‘upgraded’ already. Now it is time for the other two jobs. Not sure if both will be in this update. It is more likely that there will be a part 4 to the ‘Work Sucks’ updates.

V0.8.9.00 – ‘Knocked Up’

This update is about one thing and one thing only; Pregnancy. A lot of stuff is already written for it and a lot of stuff still needs to be written for it and I need to decide for a lot of stuff whether or not it will be possible to go there when pregnant; For sure some areas will not be available while being pregnant e.g the club.
The idea for this to work is that obviously Lizzy can get pregnant by anyone at any time depending on cycle and protection levels. The pregnancy needs to get tracked and people need to comment about it when it happens (Oefff big job). It needs to impact on her daily jobs whenever possible and obviously on Lizzy herself. And giving birth needs to be added as well as some endings if things go wrong etc.

Pretty ambitious roadmap I’d say and I’m not sure I’ll pull it all off, but going to try.
