Glad you're enjoying it. LaughingVulcan did a new armored gynoid image that's in the current build of the game, and I did some more UI tweaking last night. More is planned and on the way... it'll just take some time.

Don't forget to try using "set region" and try out Shadowaura's wonderful Dirtwater region. Interesting gameplay where you start out as a hidden gynoid, trying to convert a town where the people fought off the gynoids.

I also posted two more pictures to my deviantART:

yeah saw those earlier, nicely done

edit: hate to pry, but do you know if there's a chance of more stories coming out anytime? I don't want to sound like a gimme gimme but those were really awesome and never really got "finished"

I just fixed an out of bounds error I introduced yesterday, if you're running into problems it's always a good idea to grab the latest alpha version from the site first to see if it's been fixed, or check the Changelog file.

The file names during the alpha test stay the same, here they are just in case:

Zor was working on another chapter at one point, but I haven't heard anything further in a long time.

I did put an edited copy (with a few illustrations using the game graphics) on my site: http://gynoid.game-host.org/Gynoid.html

Borias' stories have all been pulled from Fembot Central and Fembot Wiki, as he evidently left the scene back in November (Gynoid Gaiden and Tracy's Christmas, if you're looking in the wayback machine).

And there was Building a Better Tomorrow story, which I helped edit (also illustrated): http://gynoid.game-host.org/Building.html

After a Long Dormancy it re-awakens
__
Part Ten: The Reaping
Thirty Eight Hours after the Order was given

Two days ago as far as the public was concerned the building was just another warehouse owned by Fei Robotics, an unremarkable eyesore off the freeways among many. The people who commuted by it had no idea what it was used for. Now its purpose had been made clear. Outside it stood a crowd of over two hundred thousand with more coming in every minute, either walking in or being delivered by motor vehicle. The crowd stood or sat speechless, calm and still, save for the occasional venture to a number of port-o-potties that had been set up. All of them were adults and most of them were female. The men that were present were notable in that few of them had beards. If they did they were falling out while male pattern baldness ended in new hair growth. Their features were gradually becoming more slender and curved. Men were not coming here in less numbers than women were, but men who stayed here for long.

The humans were not alone; around them was a force of Gynoids. Some of them were armed and on guard, manning a number of weapons at fixed locations or patrolling on foot or in vehicles. Others were escorting groups of humans being brought in. Others were working with the crowd. They handed out bottles of water and soda to the humans, who quietly drank them to keep the heat down. They also would also occasionally pointed to an human (usually a woman) and told her or him to advance. The human in question would do just that and join an orderly queue of people and entered the warehouse.

As this happened, a car entered the lot under escort of a number of SWAT vehicles and a couple of helicopters. It soon parked as its passengers disembarked. There were two gynoids, one blue one green. They were here for an inspection.

“You know it’s weird.” Evelyn said in speech to Adria.

“What is?”Adria responded in speech, Evelyn had something of a thing for humanity.

“You walking outside as yourself. First time you have done so in years.”

“Well there was that evening seven months ago.”

“But that was not you being you. That was you posing as a domestic servant buying some groceries outside.”

“Well by that logic, this is your first time outside as yourself as well. Whenever you were out in public you were merely my humble servant rather than my closest relation and lover.”

“A well-made point.” Evelyn said as there was a roar of a rocket being fired. It was one of their SAMs. “Are you sure this trip was a good idea, Adria?”

“Yes, the strategic weapons have been handled and we managed to hit the military bases off guard and we got our hands on the biggest supply of military gear this side of the Rocky Mountains. And of course making more of us will only help things along.”

“Ah the progenitors!” Another voice cut in, a Gynoid walked forward. She had black silicone hair in a back swept style as well as black gloves and boot. The rest of her coloration was green. Her designation was GN-2/31/559c Alice and was the overseer of this operation. “The mothers of our newborn civilization. We were quite surprised to hear that you would make an inspection of our operation. I am sure that your time is precious, so let us be quick in showing the place where so many new sisters are born.”

With that, Alice and a few guards showed her around. They were soon showed was one of the two transformation pens. An area slightly bigger than a tennis court around a walled off chain link fence the heart of which was a trough. A set of mats was laid about. There a number of humans sat by it eating the muddy liquid that it was filled with. This contained the proper balance of materials for the nanites in their assembly. A few Port-o-potties were set up within. The individuals inside had some free reign in movement, the nanites focusing on their work of reconstruction. At most they could be turned off for a brief spell if needed. A few Gynoids oversaw them as they continued their change, making sure that they did not harm themselves. A couple new women were brought in as they came. Some calm orchestral music was being played.

Adria and Evelyn looked over the people who were inside. In there were around six hundred women were within at various stages. A few of them were eating, a few of them were plugged into sockets set up on the wall, but most of them were lying, sitting or milling about. A few of them were talking and looking at their changes. She looked at them. A few of them only had fairly basic changes; some had blue fingers and were pulling off their nails or a foot in a blue sock. Others had various parts of their body covered in ivory skin. Some were pacing back and forth muttering, a few were mad and a couple were just checking out what was going on. Most of them were keeping their clothes on, but a few had disrobed, usually towards the completion of the process. When they saw the new arrivals, a few of them thrashed at the fence and some more screamed at them. These were quieted as they were sent to sleepy land by the guards.

The system was easier and took up less vital resources to set up than full-fledged conversion tank, even if it did take far more time for the transition to happen. It was not the way that either one of them preferred to do things, but there was still a pressing need for new Gynoids to be ready as soon as possible.

She was then lead into the warehouse itself. Here there where were twelve rows of eighteen conversion tanks fed by a complex system of pipes to a reserve of material. Save for the two at the ends of the warehouse, these rows were back to back with eight Aisleways between them, each one with a neat line of humans down it. Numerous Gynoids walked between them attending to them to see that they were all functioning at peak capacity. The number of people inside was constantly being refreshed by a steady march of new arrivals.
All in all, everything was proceeding smoothly and efficiently. Each cell was going at a steady rate. She watched as the next batch were prepared. In lockstep two hundred and twenty young women, some of whom had been male just a few hours ago climbed a set of identical ladders and reached the top. There a couple of Gynoids attached the arm and leg clamps and breathing masks as they were lowered in and the process started with a whurring sound. The walked by them and watched through the plexiglass windows. Clothes disintergrated first, then the hands and feet began their transition. The gradual flow of new silicon skin across their bodies, the erasure of nipples, the restructuring of hands and bodies into the new shape and the growth of dataports and charging outlets on the back. All the while the individuals began to notice their changes and became more and more receptive. Finally was the solidification of hair, the smoothing out of noses and the changing of eyes into singular visors. Within five minutes the process had completed itself and the new gynoids were disconnected, got to their feet and walked down while being hosed off.

One of them marched over to the waiting pair. She stood before them. When she had entered, she was a long haired Latin Women in a pair of shorts, baseball cap and a tank top. Now she stood before her naked, her various flourishes of color were all a plumb colour while her hair had been reshaped into a fairly tall conical form with a curl in the back.

“I am Unit GN-3/155/240c Aleria, you may call me Aleria.” She said smoothly.

Evelyn reached out and grabbed the new sister by the sides of her head. “Welcome to your new life!” she said excitedly before she pulled herself to her neck and kissed Aleria on the lips. “I know you will love it.”

“I am sure that I will.” She responed. “But in the meantime I have duties to attend to.”

“Very well,” Evelyn said as she stepped back. “Work before pleasure.”

Aleria walked off, relaying a message to the first of her kind electrically. When distilled to it’s English meaning it amounted to this. “I will be sure to make up for lost time”.

The two Gynoids continued to inspect the fine mechanical workings of the facility as it worked on reworking humans into new Sisters. Every six minutes a new batch of sisters walked out of this place and took to a new job. Many were armored and sent out to round up new humans. Others were sent to work on various projects to get the city operational and prepared for the next stages of the plan, from getting an economy going to setting up more tanks. Others took care for the children whose parents were captured for conversion.
The Gynoids had managed a few early victories. They had managed to create a significant amount of chaos throughout the developed world and made the most of it. Millions had been converted already across numerous urban centers and numerous military bases had been hit off guard by nanite mortar attacks and forces of Gynoids. Finally, the trump card of nuclear weapons had been destroyed. Yesterday, every single ICBM, SLBM and IRBM had either been launched towards remote sections of Antarctica, Greenland and the Sahara Desert, or, in a couple of cases to a few bomber bases. But they were still a long way from victory. Not every attack on military bases had been successful and there were a few bases that were inaccessible, to say nothing of the ships at sea. Some of them had managed to get things going. There was considerable fighting in many cities which was often getting more organized and intense. In a few instances human military forces and street fighting had managed to fight back against Gynoids and prevail.

They were also not evenly distributed. Conversion Centers were set up in and nearby major cities, leaving rural areas unattended. While they had a firm foothold in Korea, Japan, the Philippines and Taiwan, their presence in China was focused in some of the major cities and in India, their only footholds were in Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad and Kolkata. In Africa only had a sugnifant presence in South Africa. Their presence in South America and Eastern Europe was also erratic, more so in the case of the former, while they simply moved the two thousand Gynoids out of Israel beforehand to re-enforce Europe, leaving the middle east alone for the time being. The struggle would be a long one and at the moment, they need every Gynoid they could make or convert on the job.

SO I played it for like 3 hours last night just seeing all of the interesting things I could do XD. Well I have to say junkyard was a bit of a let down and Dirtwater.. actually started making me mad. The part where you start taking over the town and then everyones just getting blown away with sniper fire and you can't purge anymore to go hunt down the little bastard whose picking everyone off every turn. Most annoying thing I've ever been through in a game. Whats even more annoying is that every once in a while even when Hive mind is picking out your targets you can still move in a certain direction. I spent turn after turn after turn trying to get to the radio transmitter.. and guess what.. the guys not even freaking there -.- SO ANNOYING!

But I do have to say I absolutely loved the first level of the game. I had a ton of fun with it.

Ah, the sniper was moved to the top of the hotel, Shadowaura may not have updated a hint as to his location. You can "purge" your queue in Dirtwater to remove all assigned targets, if that helps. There is a region specific "help" section as well. Another hint: You can bring things from Ground Zero to help, you just have to have them before you start Dirtwater (though this isn't entirely canon to Dirtwater's story, it does make things a bit easier to figure out.)

Junkyard is just a demo of how to create a region, not a real story... I probably should make that clear in the region start script.

Glad you liked Ground Zero, it's a bit more straight forward, not as much strategy and tactics like Dirtwater.

It won't let you purge when the main event is going on near the end of Dirtwater. Thats when all of my people get killed. But I'll keep in mind he's in the hotel. Would it be possible to label the blocks in the map. So its easier to navigate?

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the idea is not original, in fact it has been used a lot before O_-

hey, awesome to see you again. quick question, I downloaded the self installer with the game and GIT interpreter and upon launching every safety program on my computer went ballistic. has anyone else had this problem, and if so do they have any recommendations? I would like to give this new version a shot as I quite enjoied the last version but I'm waiting to proceed until I'm sure that it's safe to run.

again, nice to see that this isn't dead. keep up the undoubtedly awesome work!
