Gallery Unlock Poll
🕑 Added 2022-03-28 16:12:59 +0000 UTCHey guys,
Just a quick poll I wanted to put out to get some feedback regarding the Gallery now that everyone has had a chance to play it.
Originally, the plan was for every scene in the Gallery to be unlocked once you complete the game (or while in active development, until the player reaches the end of the currently playable story for that version). Until you get there, any scene you see while playing would be unlocked in the gallery.
In the current ALPHA, all scenes are unlocked from the beginning. Mainly for testing purposes for you all, but also because I've yet to properly implement the code for scenes unlocking.
However, I also appreciate, that in porn games such as TD, a lot of players would like the ability to simply download the latest build at any given time and simply view all of the new scenes immediately rather than play the game if possible.
That got me thinking: Should I even bother locking the Gallery Scenes in the first place?
Maybe when the game is finally done one day, in the "completed" version, it would be nice to have to actually beat the game to unlock something like that. But while it's in ongoing development and a lot of players aren't intending on doing full playthroughs all the time, it seems like more of a punishment than a reward right now for most.
So what are your thoughts on this? Should all Gallery Scenes stay unlocked from the start in the Full Release of v0.10 and beyond?
Thanks for your feedback on this. If you've got any comments/feedback/questions regarding the Gallery in general feel free to leave them here too :)

Yeah, I was also going to do it that after every Day, you'd unlock all the scenes from that day.

End of chapters unlocks missable content. If an event is missed/other choices were made, then you get the gallery unlock after that chapter is over. So like beating the casino or getting the upgrade to Tiff's body and passing out.

Personally I prefer to use a gallery as sort of a TODO list of scenes to obtain, but I don't mind if they're fully unlocked from the start - also there's usually a mod unlocking the entire gallery anyhow.
