itch.io

I had two updates in a row for the IRL transformation content, but neither release was popular with supporters. At the time I was very dependent on Patreon/Subscribestar for my bills, so I set it aside to focus exclusively on the in-game content, which was much (much) more popular. And I just never returned to the IRL stuff afterward.

I could not keep up with the monthly updates given the depth of the game and my day job. I've still been working on the game. There will be a big update coming out pretty soon, with new features such as allowing Sparkle to express an adjustable attitude throughout the story (which also changes how others react/behave proportionally), a setting to skip my (un)funny/nonsense/filler dialog by default, and an optional feature to view anonymous choice stats at the end of each act (like in The Walking Dead / Telltale games) and/or upload your own choices anonymously.

The original plan was that Simon/Simone would eventually turn into Sparkle IRL (whatever variation Sparkle was in the game).

No, I closed the account. I can't reliably produce monthly releases because of the number of variations and variables in the game. I'll still be posting releases when they're ready, just without the pressure of a monthly deadline.

I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know you're enjoying the game! Thanks!

Hello all,

I've been receiving a lot of bug reports about the im.matrix errors in the game. These are due to the latest Ren'Py release changing the way image transforms work. I'm working on getting those fixed and will have an update out soon. Sorry for the trouble!

Thank you! I'll double-check that and get it fixed.

I cannot upload the newest versions here because they are too big. I've removed those links, the URLs for the latest version are on the front page.

Yes sorry that route is still in work. I hope to have it all fixed by the next update!

Thanks! I'll make sure to check that and have it fixed for the next update

Thanks for the kudos!

**SPOILER BELOW**

Sparkle's hair doesn't come back until Humblehooch when Lel convinces Sparkle to take a potion in order to fix her hair.

Thanks for saying so! Happy that you're enjoying the game :)

You can download it from Mega with this link:

You don't have to pay, you can download the lastest public release from the main page: https://daviezwei.itch.io/healslut

Yes I'm working on the endings now but they are taking a lot of time because there are so many variables to consider and I want the endings to be personalized and meaningful.

The 0.92a update will be posted here in a week and it contains more story content up to Sparkle's "final" decision as well as the lead-up into the Pink Ending (which is the lighthearted ending of the game).

The next update will contain (hopefully) the remainder of the Pink Ending and as much of the Green Ending (which is the "default" ending) as I can get done.

That's a good idea! I have some more interesting things going on with persistent variables near the end of the game as well, so I can use this little trick there, too.

Thanks! And I'm very happy you're enjoying the game :)

Thanks! I really appreciate the kudos. More to come!

Thank you! A POV scene (or scenes) is a good idea and I've put it on my list. There should be a new update posted here later this month if all goes well.

Thanks! Glad you like them :)

Yes there are more updates coming. The last couple haven't gone on itch.io because there isn't a lot of story content in them but I will post the next big update to itch.io as well.

That route has plans and I would definitely like to get it in but I can't make any promises as to when. There's a lot to get done!

The song was from Audioblocks but unfortunately the bookmark I have for it is now broken :(

Thank you so much for the donation and the kind words!

It's pan-dimensional. But yeah not straight-straight.

I really like this idea so... yes?

As long as Sparkle is the looter she should be asked about free use (or the decision is made by Roopah). If you want to contact me with more details or send me your save file I will look into it. There is also the wiki to check which I am trying (but failing a bit) to keep updated: https://dizzy.works/healslut/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

Next update will be out in two weeks! :)

Oh no! Okay, I will see if I can find the problem. I haven't tested on Android for the last couple updates so I definitely need to do that.

Good to hear! And thank you :)

Hmm the option for the body types should appear when Sparkle wakes up after meeting with Wendy to make the decision on how to handle turning into Sparkle IRL. The variations should show up at the start of the second day of the ship voyage. I'll double-check the code to make sure this is the case.

It's an in-game thing but once it happens in the story the option to change body types/variations will unlock in the menu as well.

Sorry but yes the last couple updates did break saves because of some structural rearrangements. It may be possible to load a save from 0.69d and (after ignoring a few error screens) continue to play if you get to a new scene and Sparkle has a wardrobe change (a lot of variables depending on Sparkle's outfit).

I see. Yes unfortunately due to the structural updates I've made in the past few releases older saves are usually broken. Sorry about that. You can use the "skip ahead" feature when you start a new game to get back to where you were before though.

Are you changing the body type and/or variation in the options before those are available in the game? Please don't change those until after you reach the part where you are doing the investigation on the ship. This problem will be fixed in the next update.

Thank you so much!

Fixed in the latest update. Thanks for letting me know!

Fixed in the latest update. Thank you for reporting it!

The walkthrough link in the summary will guide you into getting to the "backup" path :)

Thank you so much!

Apologies for the long wait! Just posted the 0.76c release!

Well it won't be the next update since that's a real big thing but there are plans for various harem routes.

Depends on which person you are romancing. For Panki you can also be with Lel, Skylark, and/or Harmony. For anyone else it is a one-on-one relationship for now but the story is open to multiple-partner possibilities in the future.
