Welcome to the world of Joseph Earnwile V.

From here on a lot of stuff will be on the 18+ side of things. Proceed at your own risk.

Just so it is out of the way: 

This is a text-adventure game that uses AI art and soundeffects to spice things up just that little bit. I have tried to get the UI down to a level where most people with a more modern sensibility would still enjoy it. I feel like the simplicity of this game genre is supremely well-suited to the exploration and storytelling experiences I want to share with my audience. Making you want to see, interact with and touch  everything just to see what may happen is one of the things I take pride in with my work. The genre also lets me tell the stories I want to tell without having the raw machinepower to do 3D renders and polygonal three dimensional worlds. I hope you guys will give it a try, and if you decide this game may not be for you, then maybe I'll see you again at a later time when I get to another project up and running.


A thank you:

I am able to develop games thanks to your contributions, no matter how small. If you have a dollar to spare you can either buy the game here on itch, donate on my Ko-Fi or become a patron. Links at the bottom of the game's page. 


Progress?

A complete rework of this game is now in very slow development. I will not promise any sort of release date, or even give myself a schedule, but in due time this game will be remastered and re-released as a continuation to my main Adventures of Joseph Earnwile game series.


So far this game includes:

  •  45+ described and I think ok-ish locations. All with varying amounts of items and characters placed within them.
  •  15 more fleshed out female characters, with some storyline and photos added to them.
  • You may be able to find me and the wife in there somewhere. Yay for self-insert characters...
  •  More than 10 secondary characters of most genders, races and sizes.
  • Functional shops and restaurants, and the start of an economy system. 
  • Themes of feedism, bloating, tight clothes, slob, extreme obesity, webcamming and even a bit of vore (if you so choose).
  • A semi-sort of-working trophy/achievement system. Can help keep track of what you have done and not.
  • A simple money system, although for now you have more than enough.
  • Fully maped out play areas, with map that can be hidden if you want.
  • Some simple collectables and ways to track these have been implemented.
  • Simple save system, now rewamped and hopefullt(!) working
  • No time or turn system. May have to add this in at some point, but for now it is very timey-wimey...
  • Many a glitch and spelling mistake (please do report them if you find them. I will do my best to fix them up for later releases).


The girls who's got some finished storylines (read - now fixing bugs and issues) are:

  • Jennie - a saucy redhead with a penchant for gaming. Help her reach the masses with her streams.
  • Sarah - the inteligent librarian who has been supressed all her life, and is now just waiting to give into temptation.
  • Alex - a secret best kept for those truly into the bigger female form
  • Patty - a collector who isn't afraid to do anything to complete her collection.
  • Maria - the sexy hedonist matron, with a taste for the good life, who could really use some younger company.
  • Katja - that bitch had it coming.
  • Chiyo - we have all been bitten by the asian persuation. So much crazy in such a small package.
  • Bridgitte - the middle aged bartender who still has something to give.
  • Rose - a flower in the darkness.
  • Imani - the confident black dancer with a latin persuation. She would do anything for her beau Gabby.
  • Gabriela - the sexy streamer who loves to eat. She may be small, but she is the strong one in the relationship.
  • Liza - the big titty goth girlfriend everyone wishes they had at least once in their lifetime.
  • Willow - the whispy menace longing for a loving touch.
  • OliveB - Oh no...
  • Mandy: milky.
  • Olivia - a secret locked away for one man's pleassure. Being truly huge is not an easy life, especially if you have no clue about what living life is all about.

Why did Chiyo leave with someone else? I'm so sad

(1 edit)

Can not accept that my favourite chiyo leaved me! 

What if it doesn't work for a gateway

Gateway?

hey question, but is this game getting worked on or is it still dead?

This one unfortunately is dead.

Altered the game's page to reflect that. Unfortunately all the game's files went poof in a catastrophic hard-drive failure.

where can i download quest application...?

https://textadventures.co.uk/quest/desktop

(1 edit)

When will you update it?

(1 edit)

edit: my computer now says the game is carrying a virus.

You use Quest, link on the game's page :-)

thanks

How do I get into Liza and Jennie's rooms? They are closed

What did you feed Maria with?

(+1)

tall to her about the girls, then check their rooms for special treats

How do I get the membership card?

root around in the cosy cafe

im at the point where im supposed to buy stuff from the itshop but when i click buy i dont have any options to buy stuff

I found how to progress and bought a mouse and controller, but now regardless of how much food i give jennie she doesn't start a new strea

Hey, I know you're trying to scale back the time you're putting into the game, but I think the latest update just broke ability to save, even on desktop quest. Trying to save at the start of the game results in this error that it spits out :

"Failed to save field 'Feeding Frenzy.use' with value 'Script:msg ("You put a dollarmsg ("You put a dollar in the machine.") 

     DecreaseMoney (1)

     ..... (flavor text for a slot machine game*) ....

     DecreaseMoney (1)

     ..... (flavor text for a slot machine game*) ....

*Didn't transcribe this text. I hope this helps. That's about all I have the patience to type manually right now after a long shift sadly. I know how hard it can be working long hours! Great work so far and I hope that you take some time to pause development and recover after you sort this out!

Hey there, probably just one character mistake. This is something I can hotfix quite easily if so. Will look at it later today :)

Mistake found, I should have a new edition up tonight witht he fix included :-)

How do you do Katja's Storyline? I give her one drink and can't figure out what to do next

try feeding her something that seems closer than you think. (she needs something to "soak up the alcohol" luckily she works at a fast food chain)

Thanks, thought I tried that but obviously not lol

hey I am at the stage with sarah and jennie were they kick me out of there rooms what do I do now because I am really lost

you do steph :) it should then all come around after a bit :)

(1 edit)

Hey WeirdoBeardo89, I have bought Jennie her bed however after that nothing happens, am I supposed to buy clothes, if so where should I look because I couldn't find anything.  Thanks

Also, what the hell do you feed the plant, is it supposed to be the ribs because I don't think that works.

You have to speak to rose about what happened way back when, then she will be more willing to take your treats. Jennie is at an end with the bed. I am getting to writing up the rest of her story over the weekend was my plan :-)

okay thanks once again, also loving the gabi and imi story so far, i think the idea of imi's character is great with the dancer idea certainly came as a shock to find out the what was happening

(3 edits)

The mouse required to give to Jennie does not have the give command, it has the use command but that doesn't work am 

(+1)

Known issue, should be ok in the next update

thanks again :)

when you buy the full box of crisp bags how do you give them to jennie and also theirs no way to open the box

Jennie needs to reach a certain point. This will have been made a little clearer and work properly in the next update.

(1 edit)

 however I cant seem to find anything more to feed Jennie the multipack of nuts vanished and I am not sure how to progress further, and how the hell do you start with Bridgette I am lost

Bridgitte needs to see your lust for bigger women play out a little before getting comfy enough to bare her all.

Did you find everything in the kitchen and the common room? Did you check if Jimbo could be of help? There is more than one treat he sells. 

If you are stuck far in, Jennie may have hinted at wanting something specific before she will keep on eating.

(3 edits)

I am at the stage where she has reopened her door I've tried all of Jimbo's foods and there is nothing more to try in the common room or kitchen. Im also unable to use look at her at the current stage so if there is unique dialogue for that it appears to of broke

Hey there, new update added two purchaseable items to Jennie's quest. THought of your feedback when implementing those. Hope they help you out of the jam. From my re-count there should be enough food around, but now there are other options too!

WeirdoBeardo89 out!

I cant seem to progress any further with Maria after she offer "show" is that the end?

I am afraid so my friend

all good then im loving the project keep up the good work

(+1)

The show is on in today's little update :-) Look for it later today.

sounds like a plan, and while i have you here after Jenn walks in on you with Liza she seemed to of disappeared? am I just blind?

(+1)

She is supposed to go to her own room, but something may have bugged. Will check :-)

Can you make a android version?
