Your saves should carry over just fine

Hey all- Iā€™m here for a long over-due update on Roundbound and the current state the game is in.

Itā€™s going well- really well. I finished the first bad ending and Iā€™m nearing the end of the first main ā€œarcā€ in this update. At the moment Iā€™m planning on having 4 major arcs in version 5.0 alone so I guess you can say the update is almost 25% done from story prospective. I also got some more hands on board for art! Be ready to see some new sprites and character graphics, Iā€™m super excited to put some new and unique stuff in the game and I think youā€™ll like seeing it too.

In addition to this, I realized I gain implement weight gain in battles. Not just with the main party gaining weight as a result of fightsā€¦But I can literally just make my own battle character graphics. Expect some actual weight gaining enemies to enter the game next update! It should spice battles up a bit :wink:

Finally, I just wanted to give a proper thanks for everyone filling out the poll about a month ago. I have a ton of new ideas from it and the game is going in a much better direction since I know what the people want improved/fixed. You can see the results of the poll on the discord in their own channel- theyā€™re still up if youā€™re curious.

Thanks everyone, stay tuned for more.

First bad ending? As apposed to bad endings from when we lose a fight(or the witchā€™s quiz)?

The first bad ending of this update, rather. I shouldā€™ve worded that better

Downloaded it today, been liking it so far. Nice work! Madeline has to be my favorite but I do have a maid bias. Clare a close second.

Glad you enjoy it! The next update I plan on really fleshing out their personalities even more. I want Madeline to be more maid-like and Clare to be more shy nerd-ish type.

Hi round I donā€™t like talking to you in a kind of private chat thatā€™s why I came here to talk:
i plan to make a game on rpg meker oh i was wondering if you made the obese ā€œbad endingsā€ models or if you downloaded them from somewhere?

and if they were downloaded could you show me where you downloaded or bought them?

The sprites came from the Stuffing RPG bugtesting server. Thereā€™s a whole bunch there if you need them.

After I got utility rope I donā€™t know where to go. Is it end of progress of 4.2 or am I missing something?

Check the second floor of the building. The rope is used to cross large gaps, so be on the lookout for some in there.

Just discovered this website. Also just finished the latest update and its great! Keep up the good work!

Update Time!

Progress is still going, albeit slow and steady. Every day I chip at it little by little thanks to the new year and priorities coming back, so up I canā€™t focus too much time on development. However, I really feel this is easily going to be the biggest, longest, and best update the game has gotten yet. I know where to take the story, how the characters should act, and what makes these fetish games good. Here are some of the little various things Iā€™ve done in the meantime.

  • When talking to Pii, you now have the choice to slim down individual party members instead of the whole party. This will allow you to have more diversity among weights in the party.
  • I changed all the icons in the game. All the old icons are going to be a little bugged if you resume from and old save, but all the new items and skills you get look so much better. I even made custom icons for the weight gain stages (replacing the colored circles).
  • I got a lotā€¦ So manyā€¦ new maps made. The newest town is in fact going to be much larger than any of the previous cities so far with the most content in it so far.
  • I started on a Blueberry bad ending. Itā€™ll be 100% optional sidequest, so for those not wanting blueberry content donā€™t worry- there will be proper warning with this side quest. But for those that want it, I hope my knowledge of Blueberry fetishes will make you happy.
  • Finally, the last thing Iā€™ll share here is Voiraā€™s redesign. I wanted her to look more like the lusty teasing succubus she acted like so her new appearance should properly reflect that. And yes, she will gain weight in this update.

I hope the wait isnā€™t too long. Like always, join the discord (in the first post!) to see more updates and Roundbound content. And again, if anyone wants to make art or sprites for the game let me know! I always need some extra art help Thanks for the support! :relaxed:

Time for another update. Iā€™ll keep things short but I just wanted to share some current developments on the state of Roundbound at the moment!

  • There will be several enemies you can fatten during battle. Youā€™ll be able to fatten them up with Robin by using Ariaā€™s Blessing as a magic skill to cause some flabby havoc. Youā€™ll unlock it about halfway through the new update.

  • Clare will have another eating competition, but itā€™ll end up in a bad end if you select the wrong decision. Be careful to to mash too much!

  • After this update, the game will be around 50% completed. I want each major update to include a whole city and several arcs, and after this 4/8 cities will have their arcs completed. Arcs will also be a bit longer compared to previous cities so donā€™t be afraid as lots of content is still on the way. In addition, the map has been updated to reflect this new game flow. (See the map attached)

As usual Iā€™m still looking for any Artists that would be interested in providing art for bad ends or cutscenes. All work would be credited (obviously duh) and put into the game in a specific gallery to see.

Finally, be sure to join the discord to see more updates! (Link in initial forum post). Thank you everyone for being so patient in the meantime. Iā€™m working on this update by myself at the moment, but it should be out in the next month or two! Thanks for nearly 100k page views aswell. The support and numbers really help keep me going :slight_smile:

I swear Iā€™m not aiming for monthly updates, it just happens LOL. Also thank you everyone for over 100k page views! It doesnā€™t do much but shows that people are interested in the game enough to click on it, so I really appreciate it. Here are some small things Iā€™ve been workinā€™ on.

  • Food (including ingredients) is now going to be separated into itā€™s own menu category along with items, armor, etc. No more cluttering up the items tab with all the different foods youā€™ll be gathering. Big thanks to Peach for helping me out with this one!

  • Iā€™m working on a big casino area thatā€™ll play a big role in part of the story. Itā€™ll have a couple different minigames inside it (as Iā€™m still deciding which ones to add), but for the most part theyā€™re all going to be about gambling.

  • Finally, going off the last point, in the casino Maid Madeline will be making a return along with the new character wearing a bunny girl costume. Inspections for her are going to be fun- especially when she gains some weight in it.


(I donā€™t want to show her bunny outfit just yet, but I like teasing people so hereā€™s a silhouette of what to expect. And like I said, she will be getting a weight gain stage in said outfit.)

The game should be out maybe after a month or two as thereā€™s a lot to develop and this is easily the largest content update for the game already. As usual, if there are any artists or spriters out there that would like to help and provide art for the game, thereā€™s always sprites or art I need! Message me on discord @Round#8776 if youā€™d like to help out.

Iā€™ll see yall when I have some more news to share, and join the discord if you havenā€™t.

The game is packed with content and it has been really fun to play. I doubt iā€™m even that close to completing the current amount of content that has been made thus far. Keep up the good work and i look forward to the future of this game.

Itā€™s a great game!

Though one quick question, how do you transfer a save from the old version to a new version?

Since it is kind of annoying having to start over from ground zero every time there is an update.
