Gain of Life: A weight gain life simulator [v0.50.0]

The original idea of the game was that it is done when the player can reach the level where he/she can dictate the world to their ideas and (weight) standards.

However, this changed. This became just a goal I work to, but this will not mean that if I reach it, the game will be considered done. As long as there are people supporting the development and my motivation doesn’t fade away, I think everybody will be happy when there is more stuff added month by month. For now, it doesn’t seem like my motivation will be gone any time soon. Actually, I’m currently trying to find more time to spend on the development of the game.

I appreciate every single one, who decides to become a Patron and financially support me to continue creating the game. When becoming a Patron, you not only get access to the newest versions of the game, but also help the game you like to be developed further, which makes me benefit, since I can do what I like doing (developing the game), but also makes you benefit of the new things added.

Well thanks for the fast answer.

Its good to see you motivated :grin:

Maybe when i have my first paycheck at my new job Will i become a patron then (in oktober)

Keep up the good work

Finally fixed the bug, which made projects at the college not regenerate. A lot of people complained they couldn’t finish the “weight gain pills” project for Samantha, however this should be fixed now. It’s a pretty old bug, which I was never able to figure out. v0.14 (which will be there within the next hours on Patreon) will include a fix for it.

[v0.14] New Version!

v0.14 is now available to all Patrons.

What’s new?

  • Added a new story for Jane at the college
    • Jane’s story gives Jane a personality. Before this update most characters where very flat in personality, however this is going to change. The story will get a lot more complex, especially with Jane. Multiple story paths deciding on your future with Jane: Will you be her feeder? She yours? Will you feed each other? Nothing from all of them?
    • This story update is the biggest I’ve ever done
    • This story will be extended further within the next months
  • Reduced clicks at some events drastically (“automation manager” added for some events to manage, which actions should be automated), will edit even more scenes for the bug-fixed version.
  • A completely new weight stage for the main character
  • Fixed a major bug causing the player to not finish all college projects (and not being able to drop weight gain pills into Samantha’s drink at the office) thanks to the help of a Patron by sending me a save file

Hey, really liking the new update so far! I like how Jane is developing, if that’s the quality we can expect going forward I’m super hyped for everything coming next.

I did run into one issue, once I got to the 11_2 outfit the character sprite stopped visually gaining and I stopped getting comments from Jane when I go to college. Got the main char to 113kg before I realized there may be an issue.

I was trying to gain as fast as possible to get to the new stuff, not sure if that could have been the cause. I’ll try another run from the start tomorrow but go a little slower to see if I get the same result.

113 kg is over the maximum size, though you should not receive an error since the game will just not allow you to buy new clothes. However, there might be issues since the game isn’t developed further than for I think 104 kg.

The last stage is 15, so it is weird that the character stops gaining at stage 11. Can you try to explain further? Meanwhile I will investigate if I can find something causing this issue.

Jane’s story at the college is limited, at some point it does not continue. This story is planned to be extended further over the next months, a lot. I’ve got a plot of what is planned exactly, but I will not spoil too much for now :wink:

I’m glad you like the update :smiley:

So, I ran through another run from the beginning of the game just now and ran into the same issue, but this time I got stuck at 11_3 (black pants and blue-green top being too small), got to 106kg before I realized. Unfortunately as you said, there is no error, so I don’t have a lot of other information to give you.

Both times i only worked at the fast food place, only talked to Jane, and gained weight really fast.

I could send you a save file if that would be helpful?


In the first visit, I chose study in the library option, and after a dialogue from Benjamin, go home dialogue appears.

What do I need to do to get Janes new story path? For me was nothing new exept the beginning dialogue with Jane…

Well, it’s just the “just” the beginning dialog. It already has ~3000 words.

This story will be extended a lot within the next months.

Bug fixes

Figured the issue out, thank you for reporting. The bug-fixed version is currently uploading containing a fix for it. I accidentally typed “960.0 kg” instead of “96.0 kg”, which caused the issue.

Fixed it, bug-fixed version uploading!

I think the newest version v0.14.1 is messed up. I started the game and instantly was told my clothes ripped and I was $50350 in debt. Character also looked like possibly max weight.

Hehe, forgot to remove the debug numbers for the weight… Reuploading it, thanks for letting me know. I’ll reply here to this topic, when the new v0.14.1 is available in the post.

Upload complete on Mega and only for PC, uploading Mega for Mac and then will update the GoogleDrive links too. But for now only Mega (PC) available: https://www.patreon.com/posts/56035207

Still seeing the same thing happen with the new link :sweat_smile:

Are you sure you chose the PC (Mega) Download link? The file should also say “GainOfLife-v0.14.2-pc.zip”.

I have just unpacked the zip I just uploaded myself and tested it and it seems to be working just fine to me :confused:

PS: All links (GoogleDrive and Mega for PC and Mac) are now linked to v0.14.2.

When I click on the MEGA link it takes me to a 14.1 file

Can you try reloading the page? Or just click the Google Docs link on the top of the post (that link seems to be taking you to v0.14.2). For me both links work just fine…
