Game Version Changelog:

Version 0.17a – Rise and Grind
This update is the first of my batch of progression updates – see the roadmap for what’s next!

• A new set of randomized male NPCs – your coworkers! Every new game will generate 10 of them (out of a pool of 30 overall), and they have a wide variety of personality traits. You can talk to them both while male and female. Current interactions with them (there will be more):
  • They can offer job advice (depending on their rank and personality type, it might be either good or bad advice)
  • Small talk – raise your friendship level with them – and yes there is a full relationship tracker for each of them!
  • Gripe about work – the lazy ones will love this and feel closer to you, whereas ambitious ones or executive types won’t.
  • And of COURSE, when you’re female:
    • You can flirt with them if you choose
    • They’ll make comments about your appearance and outfit
    • They’ll ask for blowjobs and sex like normal random NPCs, offering you leads in return – the higher the employees rank, the better the leads they might give you.
    • They can ask to be fuckbuddies, but at the moment I haven’t really made the fuckbuddy interactions unique. So don’t expect too much extra flavor text until a bit later.
    • Among other things!
• Subscribers voted, I listened! I’ve now added the GoodGirl Petite sales demo. It’s unlockable after making some sales.
• There’s a new workplace reputation system. Choose the path of being more professional, and you’ll be treated as such by your coworkers. But the more demos you let devolve into sexual situations, or offers of leads for blowjobs/sex you take up, the more your workplace sexual reputation might increase. There are numerous effects to this reputation, to make your life a little more difficult:
  • If your sexual reputation is high, there is a small chance you’ll get spiked with a pill in the office – someone might drop one in your coffee, along with another few similar scenarios. Depending on your intellect you may be able to avoid it (there are 20 scenarios, and each one requires a different intellect level).
  • Coworkers will approach you at your desk, if your reputation is high enough, in between sales.
  • You can get randomly groped, once your reputation is high enough.
  • The higher your reputation is as a slut, the less likely guys are going to be to give up in propositioning you at the office.
  • A lot of other little effects.
• Note that if you get caught while having sex, your reputation will get even more sexual, so you’re extra motivated to not get caught.
• Added leads as a resource:
  • Leads are no longer unlimited and totally random. You can have Cold, Warm, Qualified, Opportunities, and Whales. The better the lead, the more the chance that its going to be a high-value sale.
  • You get distributed leads once a week, which is based on your rank at the workplace. You’re not gonna see any Opportunities or Whales until you rank higher in the company.
  • NPCs get leads just the same way as you do – if you sleep with a junior colleague, he will probably not have the best leads to give you, although he might be more easy to please than a higher-up.
  • Cold leads are more likely to lead to demos. Meaning when you start out, you’ll be doing more demos than you will later on.
• Integrated McLurkington’s wonderful mod, “Performance Review”, allowing you to negotiate higher commission, base pay, et cetera. And doing some ‘under the table’ convincing. Note that blowing your boss will also affect your reputation.
• Added workplace ranks. You can ask for promotions every few days, based on the number of sales you’ve made. The higher your rank, the better the leads you’ll get.
  • Ranks: Rookie, Junior, Intermediate, Specialist, Account Manager, Senior Salesperson, Team Lead, Sales Director, Senior Sales Director
• Added upgradable desks – this is based on the $ value of your current sales. Go to the facilities manager to ask for a desk upgrade (you can chat with him from the break room)
• Added chat options with Drew – at the moment he can only really sell you Warm and Warm High-Volume leads. He can also give you tips and stuff.
• Added a notice board – each day, there might be a sales incentive to sell a specific brand of product (WANGL, InstaGirl, SWP). You’ll make more money if you sell the product being incentivized that day.
• Added a gift shop at the mall, where you can buy expensive items like watches, that can buff stats.
• Added Color palettes so you don’t have to look at the pink background all the time. This was pretty hard to achieve, and there are only certain values it can change. There’s also a reactive color palette that is pink while you’re female, and dark blue while you’re male.
• Added experimental Sex Toy Integration via ButtPlug.io. This is quite primitive at the moment. Ignore it for now unless you’re really technically savvy and feel like messing around. Eventually the goal is to get sex toys to sync up to the minigames.
• Added positive effects for having sex with women, that last into the following day. So if you want to maximize your sales as a guy, go out and bang a hot chick at the bar the night before, it’ll boost your confidence!
• Spend enough time at the beach as a girl, and you’ll get a relaxtation status that lasts for a while too. Hopefully sleazy guys don’t try to hit on you while you’re out just getting some sun, that would be inconsiderate!
• Heel-walking sound effects.
• Added like 20 outfits.
• Added a MacOS app version of the mod loader
• Added squeezing-your-fat-ass-into-jeans animations for certain characters.
• Technical upgrades to Harlowe Audio Library.
• Technical fixes for core Harlowe engine – upgraded to latest.
• So many bugfixes! Dozens and dozens. This should be a fairly stable release. Hopefully.

v0.16f

• February 11 additions:
  • Now if you get the “swallow cum daily or you’ll be stuck in your current DNA” side effect, you can ask your stepdad for cum at the end of the day, if all else fails. There are a lot of side effects to doing this, but it’s a hot scene in a very degenerate sort of way.
  • Bugfixes
• 300+ voice lines added throughout the game for a number of primary characters such as Alexia and Callie. These are 100% AI generated but sound incredibly real. Must be heard to be believed!
• Toggles added for the voice lines – you can turn most of them off in game options if you don’t like the idea of an AI whispering hot things to you.
• New interracial sex scene added – this can be accessed after Callie’s beach scene (which I highly recommend replaying, with the new voices) – I won’t spoil the new sex scene, but just go to the Jungle area where you first met Callie. This is the world’s first fully AI voiced sex scene of its kind…
• Reluctance system – this should be pretty unobtrusive, but affects a lot of things in minor ways. When you take a pill you get to select from a drop-down, how you feel about taking it. High reluctance makes it so you don’t want to wear slutty clothes etc. Equally, when you fully embrace your female body, you won’t want to wear your old guy’s clothes anymore. At high reluctance, you are shielded from arousal gains, and also lose masculinity more slowly. You have the choice, about how fast you want to sink into your new lifestyle.
• Obligatory fishing minigame – players said its not a real sandbox game if there’s no fishing content. So, fishing content you now have. It’s spear-fishing though.
• A moral debate between Aphrodite and her nemesis, The Wolf
• 30 new Lana & Alina outfits. Focused on some more slutty stuff.
• Issue with randomness not being random enough resolved.
• Updated stripping minigame with 40+ new images.
• Modding has moved to LoversLab: https://www.loverslab.com/files/category/319-x-change-life/ New mods are coming out every day. I’ve done my best to try and support this budding community, please join the Discord if you’re interested in modding, it’s very easy.
• More random bits of lore strewn about the world.
• Lots of bug fixes…

Version 0.16e – The Maid on the Shore
This update is focused on story content accessible as Jia (the redhead). This is one of several planned chapters that are character-specific, in order to give them each time to shine.

• Jan 26 – more bugfixes and ~15 new outfits
• Jan 24 – a bunch of bugfixes
• New “mysterious bikini” you start the game with – explained a bit in intro, and a breadcrumb trail to follow
• New unique F/F sex scene – transforming to the redheaded Jia body is required to access this scene
• New unique MFF sex scene – plays optionally after the previous
• New story chapter, explaining some things in the game that were previously unexplained, setting the stage for some of the main plot motivations (though the plot will always be optional)
• New unique F/F gym sex scene – play the previous two to access it – this one is really tough but fun and highly replayable
• Restored iOS compatibility, but no audio at the moment. This is due to an Apple browser bug, not an X-Change Life bug, but we are working around it. The game will auto-detect what browser/device you’re using, and adjust behavior accordingly.
• Insta-Strip pill now available as a workplace demo (thanks to @Ebiora)
• Improvements to bar girls sex scenes as a guy (thanks to RaivoAsdf) – ability for girls to cum while you’re ediginghttps://gitgud.io/xchange-life/xchange-life/-/commit/7a1cc15ec63f99ad0cb2290ecd3cd028db743711
• Insta-Strip stripping game dynamic improvements (thanks to @McLurkington)
• New portraits for Lana and Alina
• Lots of minor improvements and bugfixes

Developer Notes:

This game is still in an early stage of development, as I am still building out the core game mechanics. That said, there are already a large number of scenes to try out, although some are tricky to find. Go to the tip jar in the cafe for hints!

X-Change™ Life is a daily life RPG based in a universe where it’s normal to take over-the-counter gender swapping pills that last 24 hours (or more). The game features heavily minigame-driven gameplay to determine passing / failing checks at different points. You’ll always have the option to skip minigames by using a “skill check”, where your % success chance is driven by your character’s stats/skills. I really enjoy gamifying sex actions, and prefer sex to feel more “interactive” rather than a slideshow or a wall of text as in most Twine-based games. So, I am just making what I personally enjoy the most, but your mileage may vary. The game is slightly limited by what is possible to write in Twine, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you allow yourself to get into it.
