Flash is gone and FA’s answer is to just remove the Flash section (you can still upload it though?) without an alternative such as MP4 or WEBM support. Even keeping to the 10mb file size would be acceptable.
Let’s face it, we’re not getting any kind of video support any time soon.
If you want to see my shit, follow my Twitter: https://twitter.com/kabangeh
I’ll keep posting screenshots here, that’s all I can do.
I made a pillowfort!
Follow me on Twitter.
I mostly just post art.
Relaunching Clamdog Studio Patreon to fund new projects!
There is a new public preview post of the video scene which is available to patrons of the video tier. We’ll think up more tiers I’m sure. I’d like to do behind the scenes streams for instance.
Have a look, thanks!
Please follow me on another bad website, Twitter!
I wish Twitter would go down too, but since it doesn’t at least you can find me on there:
I put up a large update for Something To Do With Love
An update to address the bug reports I’ve been received is live! If you were experiencing any bugs, please update your game. Sorry for the rough start!
Thanks everyone for your support! There will be updates to the game in the coming weeks. First on my plate is finishing up NPC dialogue, animation and voices.
Something To Do With Love IS OUT
Thanks everyone for your support! There will be updates to the game in the coming weeks.
Something To Do With Love IS ALMOST OUT
I’ve submitted the game to Steam and it’s pending approval! Make sure to add Something To Do With Love to your Steam Wishlist so you can be alerted the second it’s live!
As I said before, the game will continue to get updates for the foreseeable future. Those of you who have NPC characters in the game will be able to request changes/additions. I unfortunately was unable to get all the content in that everybody requested on the first go, but I put a lot of work into making sure the game can be updated without corrupting save files.
EDIT: The game will be a few more days because I messed something up submitting it to Steam. Just waiting for their approval, 3-5 business days.
Hey fans! Got a happy thought for all of you.
I want you to imagine, if you will; using this website. Every now and then you see an ad for an upcoming game which somebody spent a couple of years working very hard on. «Wow,» you say. «That’s neat, I’ll check that out! They must have worked so hard!»
Now imagine the hard part wasn’t the long nights writing, coding, making the art, managing the other team members; but instead getting that advertisement put up on the website.
That’d be pretty silly, huh?
Edit: Ads are up now!
I enabled shinies
Just an FYI, folks who laid down 300 big ones for an NPC
I haven’t had the most time in the world to focus on NPCs while finishing up the game, so when the game comes out the NPCs will be in an «early access» state.
What I mean is, feel free to ask for changes and additions within reason. I’ll be happy to make adjustments, you guys are the reason the game exists and I appreciate the hell out of you.
Trust me, with the crunch over I’ll be happy as a clam to go back to the fun stuff.
Here’s the Lucia trailer on Youtube for better quality!
Something To Do With Love is a romantic, slice of life adventure game about being a bachelor in the small city of Garden Grove. The characters are animal people.
Gabby Pantaloni as Arlene
Isaak Wells as Wilson
Amber May as Lucia

Because you can embed Youtube videos on FA journals, but not submissions!

A heads up on some Something To Do With Love related stuff.
As I finish things up I figured I’d drop a quick journal here saying what’s up.
The game’s release date
The game will be out sometime in May. I’ll let everyone know the second I have an exact day. It’s impossible to say at the moment. I’m not alone on this project, it’s a team effort. The funds for things like voice acting and sound mixing were not covered by the Kickstarter campaign and only came together recently. We’re finishing up that stuff and implementing it into the game.
The game is getting very large in terms of file size and while the files are nicely optimized for everyone playing at home it’s not exactly the same situation on my end while working with the game engine. Every time I import a new sound (voice acting generally) or graphic (NPC commissions being imported) it needs to recompile the whole thing next time I want to test it. The compiles get longer each time. The most recent one was nearly 20 minutes. 20 minutes I can’t work on the game. Basically at this late stage there are two things I need to be doing on the game: testing and importing the last of the content. And those two things really disagree with each other.
So bear with me, like I bear with Game Maker Studio 2!
Once all that’s good and done the game goes to Steam, and from there it’s a little bit more of a wait. Since the game is not categorized as adult it takes a little longer because on top of the normal procedure they also need to check it for dicks. I’ll be internally beta testing during this time, checking to see if there are any little glitches I can fix with a patch.
After Steam approves it I’ll give an exact release date, open pre-orders and send out Steam keys for people who have already ordered them. The release date will be pretty soon after Steam approves it.
The physical copies of the game will be available in early July. Kickstarter backers will get theirs around this time.
Edit: Additional frequently asked question:
Something To Do With Love Character Commissions CLOSED
Thanks to everyone who commissioned me. The goal amount has been reached!
Those of you who contacted me but haven’t finalized a commission, I’ll still honor those if you’re still insterested. No worries. Just no more additional applicants.
Something To Do With Love character commissions LAST CALL!
With the release of Something To Do With Love approaching, it’s time to finalize the citizens of Garden Grove! If you want your character in the game, act now!
Your character will appear in the game as a fully realized, animated character who can interact with the player. They can give a side quest, travel around the game world, appear in cutscenes and have an effect the main dating mechanics.
Shoot me a note if you’re interested. We’ll talk!
Animation/3D model commissions? Any takers?
«Something To Do With Love» has been an expensive production and the Kickstarter funds are now depleted, but work on the game isn’t over.
My main focus is the game and I’m still accepting NPC commissions for the game. However, I’ve been getting a lot of interested parties dropping out when the specifics of the NPC commissions aren’t to their liking. Generally this is due to the SFW nature of the commissions or the usability of the models (long story short, these models are intended for a pre-rendered 2D final image. Think Into the Spider-Verse)
Now, I’m primarily taking those NPC commissions to continue to fund the production of the game. More game content is nice, but I’ve got something like 50 NPCs already and that’s probably enough (I’ll still take more though.)
Would anybody be down for smaller scale commissions such as models? I can do VRChat ready stuff as well if that’s something you’re interested in. Hit me up if you’re interested.
Something To Do With Love Character Commissions re-opened!
Back by popular demand, get your character in the game!

How This All Happened HD Digital Downloads + PATREON
You can purchase «How This All Happened» digitally at clamdogstudio.com
Payza is a bit touchy with sending download links but I’m also manually emailing everyone a link as they purchase their copy just in case. The problem should be completely fixed right now but there’s a little backup!
If there are any issues feel free to send me a note.
I’d also like to announce that I’ve started a Patreon page for Clam Dog Studio: HERE
In addition to supporting us with video sales, for just 5 bucks a month you can stay posted on some behind the scenes of our next video which is already in production! I’ll be hosting streams, taking suggestions, all that sort of stuff. We plan to have another big release this time next year in addition to a bunch of free animations and some collaborations with other artists and game designers.
These funds will primarily go to software licenses that need renewing and hiring actors.
A little FAQ about Payza:
Yes. In my experience it’s ridiculously secure. Remember how long it took them to verify me? They don’t play around.
«What info does Payza need?»
Only payment info, just like any other site. You will need to confirm your identity to sell on their service or use Bitcoins. This is to prevent scammy stuff.
«My download isn’t appearing!»
Check your email, there will also be a link sent there. This issue should be completely resolved however.
«Will you ever take Paypal/Patreon for your video downloads?»
I will take Paypal if they loosen up on the adult digital content. A lot of people get banned for this. The DVD is available via Paypal from the same link however, and it includes the digital version on the disc as well as audio commentary!

I’ve purchased and seen the current video and I have some suggestions for improvements for the next animation.
— Streamline the art style. At some point it looked like HTAH didn’t know what render style it wanted to use. In a single scene there would be the cartoon style for the characters, realistic style for the background with Final Fantasy style post processing. This clashed a bit.
— Animate the hands! I know out of personal experience that animating hands is really hard if not time consuming. You don’t have to make fluid, smooth, realistic hand animations, but it generally looks bad if a hand is stuck in the same position for more than a few seconds (unless its holding/gripping something).
— Tweak your fluid dynamics. The cum reacted a lot like quicksilver/mercury and nothing like an organic substance. This require either some trial and error, or ask another animator who’s using the same program (by the way, what program did you use?).
— It didn’t appear that, besides the breasts, soft bodies were used. I would suggest using a lot more soft bodies ^^
I hope these pointers help with improving your future projects.

I am not sure which of the following should be used:
David told me on the phone last night that he was going to propose to Sarah. I couldn’t believe it. How could this happen / How could this have happened?
I’d appreciate your help.

If ‘happen’ were the right verb for this situation, then the perfect tense form would be the right one to use.
However, ‘happen’ is not the appropriate verb to refer to someone’s decision. We use ‘happen’ for events.
Here, it would be better to say ‘How could this be?’ or ‘How could he have come to this decision?’

That would be saying it was no longer the case.
In the context, you can refer either to the situation (still existing) or to the decision (now past).

David told me on the phone last night that he was going to propose to Sarah. I couldn’t believe it. How could this happen / How could this have happened?
I’d appreciate your help.
I’m not bothered by the use of «happen.» However, «happen» seems to suggest that there was an external factor/agent that caused David to propose, which would be sort of illogical (obviously, David proposed because he wanted to propose), but that’s ok; the speaker is entitled to have an emotional/illogical reaction to the proposal, (he is human, after all). Perhaps the speaker loves Sarah, or maybe be loves David. Of course, you can always try a different construction, such as How could this be?
As to the difference between «happen» and «have happened,» it’s simply a matter of temporal perspective. In «How could this happen,» happen is an infinitive, and infinitives don’t show tense. The result is that «happen» is atemporal, independent of «time:» How could this happen? If we wanted «happen» to refer specifically to the «past,» then we use the perfect form, which is how a past tense marker is added to infinitives: How could this have happened?
Either «happen» or «have happened» is fine (it’s a stylistic choice, rather than a grammatical requirement); the temporal perspective of this verb doesn’t alter the basic chronology of events: David’s proposal, followed by the phone conversation, followed by the speaker’s reaction.

What is «Something To Do With Love?»
Something To Do With Love is a romantic, slice of life adventure game about being a bachelor in the small city of Garden Grove. The characters are animal people.
While not a «dating sim» per se, this point and click adventure offers exploration and player freedom in regards to dating (or not dating) a cast of diverse characters in addition to a rich story.
How does dating work?
Through meeting people through your daily life, at social gatherings, or wherever you can develop a relationship with somebody that can bloom into something truly special. It can become serious, or not go very far. No worries though, there are plenty of fish in the sea if it doesn’t work out. Chin up, Tiger; She just wasn’t the right one for you is all!
Oh, you mean in «Something To Do With Love?»
Same, but with animal people.

So i got this on steam. and i haven’t touched it for like 2 years now. i had gotten like one cutscene for all four of the girls, and ever since i’ve been wondering. Is there suppose to be more, or is that just it?.
Extremely broken. Can’t recommend.
If possible could you elaborate on what you had issues with? If you got error codes I could use those too. It’d be helpful in fixing the issues.
is the game on steam
So I played a little and one thing bugged me to no end:
Why wasn’t the game done as a VN in something like Ren’Py? A more limited scope with simpler and more polished gameplay would have helped the art and assets really carry the game instead of feeling like filler between the scenes of a more traditional game.
Are there gay options?
Will there be free version?
There already are demo versions of this game, they are for free.
I think I did played the demo game a while back
Got the OST. Found my first bug. When meeting with Autumn at the hamburger place, no dialogue options show up. Don’t know if there’s a failsafe to escape this softlock or anything. Can advance Autumn’s animation to where she places her hand on her chest by pressing the arrow keys, though. Thanks for any info!
Thanks for letting me know. This is the second time this one was reported. Along with fixing the bug I’m gonna add some failsafes just in case, yeah. Sorry for the inconvenience there.
Dumb question, but is it possible to purchase the OST anymore? Wasn’t a part of the Kickstarter, but would like to buy the OST if possible. Thanks!
The game crashes during the video when Arlene eats a banana.
I have Windows 7 x64, game downloaded from this site.
And will the quality of the video themselves be improved in the future?
( Google translate. Sorry=) )
I’m afraid that the video player plugin isn’t supported by Windows 7, which is why the videos appear low quality. The videos are full resolution when played on Windows 8 or higher.
Could you send me the error code? I will take a look.
Too bad there is no other way to enjoy high definition video.
I just picked up the game yesterday, but when I try to start it it gives me the message «The procedure entry point MFCreateDXGIDeviceManager could not be located in the dynamic link library MFPlatDLL.» and I end up having to close the program in the Task Manager to clear it. I’m using Win 7 64-bit, if that helps.
I believe that’s related to the video playing feature which doesn’t support Windows 7. I thought I fixed this, however you should be able to close those notifications as they pop up (There’s one per video) and the game will play fine after that. I understand if this is annoying, I’ll be looking into it again when I’m back at my desk.
Not really. In fact it’s probably more like the other way around considering How This All Happened isn’t exactly deep.
I’m getting a black screen after going to sleep for the first time. It shows the chacter waking up, then it goes to black.
This is even after updating, and uninstalling and reinstalling the game.
Sorry for this issue, I’m uploading a new fix tonight. Using the launcher will download updates as small patches; or you can reinstall.
I’m still having this same issue with the latest updates on Win7 64bit
Is this a sequel to «How this all happened»?
NO FURRYS I WILL KILL ALL FURRYS PAINFULLY AND SLOWLY IN THE WORLD
Posting here to make sure it’s seen: people who bought the game through a browser, please re-download to get updates, or get the launcher and downliad it through that. Using the itch.io launcher will download small patches for the game, I highly recommend it.
This game looks great, however as i am poor i cant help but wish this game were a bit cheaper (please note i understand the amount of effort that goes into a game and wish nothing but the best for the dev and the game itself)
Btw heres a 5 star 🙂
it’s been very long time since I wrote a real criticism about something, but I belive that now is a good time to do this.
The game looks really beautiful, when everything works correctly and the player is in the moment of the story when something is actually happening, it is really entertaining to play. You just want to stay in this world, explore it and find everything it has to offer.
At the end, as I said, game looks pretty nice and makes you want to explore it all. Problem is that there is not so much to explore.

um is there something going on with this game? Is it still active?
When’s your Game done here?
Why was your Game canceled or whatever from Steam?
Because I can’t find it there.
I just checked 11/11/21 it’s still there
And what language must I choose or whatever to view the game?
Because if I’ve the german language I can’t find it.
I would like this game to be available and playable on Mac OS, could you guys consider it
ya my game wont open anyone have a fix?
Could you give me details? What OS are you running?
i have windows 10 if thats what your asking
i know a thing to do with love. Put yourself into the friend zone
so tried to download the demo on steam it will not even let me download geuss its under steam review? I was able to download it from the itch.io but not steam lol I did keep watch on the game for it to launch.
I’ll look into this, thanks!
Edit: I haven’t found any issues, same demo can be found here though.
I’m downloading this right now, but I really hope this has guys in it. Otherwise I’ll be really dissapointed.. I also feel really bad for not donating, but I literally can’t. I’m sorry developers
i noticed the Patreon keeps having a 404 error finding your group.
Latest demo is unplayable. It won’t load past the title screen. 🙁
I downloaded and checked for the error myself on a different PC but couldn’t reproduce it. Sounds like the video that plays at that point is causing you a problem. Was there an error message?
I’m re-uploading the demo just in case.
Hey Bune I’ll try to help you diagnose this. I already have media player codecs installed for watching anime with subs. I use the Combined Community Codec Pack. I tried the link you gave but the installation demanded that I install adware and I couldn’t find a way to disable that option so I won’t install it.
I uploaded a gif of the loading sequence so you can see where it fails and that no errors display.
Oh whoops, deleted the link. I just posted the first result on Google.
I re-uploaded the demo, you can give that a try. You could also try the Steam version.
Tried both steam version and this here stick on «EXT Garden Grove Evening» and black screen for me 🙁
Could you tell me what OS and what hardware your computer is running? I want to try and recreate the issue so I can fix it.
Also, try clicking the video files in the main folder. Do they play ok?
So hows the project coming along? I’ve noticed that there are 18 entry points missing when trying to open the program demo. could it just be a bad EXE file? CRC hash is 9F046FE2
Long time no see! The full game is coming along great! The main systems have all been finished and I’ll be finishing up the assets pretty soon. After that I’m on to animation and implementing all the story stuff.
I’ll upload the newest demo code now and see if that fixes it.
The demo is also available on Steam which auto-updates if I change anything: https://store.steampowered.com/app/603730/Something_To_Do_With_Love/
question how much will it cost on steam when it comes out. And can you put a beta on steam
There won’t be a public beta, the next release will be the full game.
the screen suddenly turned black in the party scene but the music is still going can someone tell me how to fix it
So, the question about a release date was last asked here on Itch almost a year ago, and I happened to be checking in on the kickstarter, so I figured I’d let folks know Duggy has marked September 2018 as the estimated delivery time!
So close, yet so far, I know. but I for one am really looking forward to it, and figured I’d leave that little tid-bit for anyone wondering.
Keep up the good work Duggy. Oh, and if you want me to take this comment down, or edit it because that release date’s pushed back, just let me know, I totally understand.
Nah, it’s cool. September 2018 is the plan.
A lot of work to be done though.
So, how do things look now, dug? been a wile since you posted anything, and I saw the kickstarter didn’t meet it’s goal. Will you sill meet your late-2018 deadline, or is the project canned? I don’t wanna see it go
I set up another Kickstarter which was funded and the game is progressing nicely. We might not make a 2018 release date, but it will come out.
hey man, that’s great to hear, I’m happy your work isn’t going to waste
How do i save my spot?
tis but a 20 minute demo, lad.
Oh the game is finally fixed! I can finally click the install button!
how can I save the game?
Pretty neat! you guys should have a gay chubby bear character option *murrrr
I am a bit curious, from some of the screenshots and your patreon page, I’d assume this game was explicitly nsfw
The hardcore stuff you’re seeing is from a previous project called How This All Happened. Some of the characters return in this.
Sorry to hear that. That music isn’t in the game any more.
Game CTDs/stops responding when going into May’s apartment at the beginning.
Only happened after I played the game once. Second/third/fourth/etc keeps crashing.
Question, Can you format it for chrome?
I want for windows ;-;
Just a bit of critic here
Can you add more talk or action options to may in the beginning? As I play this, all she says «We have a lot of the same tastes, ya know?»
Add some more things to do around the game. Once your in Mays house, there’s no turning back. Even if you leave, you cant get back in.
One more thing, are the characters supposed to be from the movie, How All This Happened? if so, who are we playing as?
When will the next demo be released?
and when do you plan on releasing the entire game, if I may ask?
Demo will be sometime this spring and the full game will hopefully before the year is out.
But do you guys have an official date for the release of the full demo?
No official release date planned, it’ll probably be here and a few other sites.
could you possibly send me what you have so far on the next demo? And please make it for windows.
There’s not much there, I’m kinda just making assets and scripts I’ll need right now so I can quickly put it together when the time comes.
The demo should be out within two months for Windows.
And will the release be on itch or another site?
i only see Lucia in the trailer no where else is she scrapped??
Nope, she’s just not in the demo is all. She’ll be in the full game and the next demo.
i only see Lucia in the trailer no where else is she scrapped??
i only see Lucia in the trailer no where else is she scrapped??
i only see Lucia in the trailer no where else is she scrapped??
I’m not really sure where to post this since there is to many places
I what i want to know is what year is the DVD from.
yeah sry didnt see the Original Movie Language was set to danish chance it but im talking about the DVD if you have a relesses date that would be nice you can make a user yourselv and chance the info so it fits ^_^
well if it’s furrys I’ll play it and just by what I watched for videos and see of this I like may
I TOLD you this game has a future. Now to keep it Arise.
Now for a question, are you going to have any О± lpha or ОІ eta testers?
That would give something for the Patreon to do.
For sure. Once it’s in a pretty final state I’ll need to have some people run through it and be on the lookout for bugs before I release it for real.
please add it to windows i need this game!
Just played most of your content, and it looks good to me. Ill be keeping an eye out for this. i already liked on steam Greenlight. I hope it gets approved, i will buy it.
I did notice one thing, though it may just be because i’m running a 4k rig and the game doesn’t support the upscale, but there’s a line that splits the screen when moving through Mays room. But, this is only when scrolling through the room. i will try and downscale my resolution and see if that solves the issue.
Also, Autumns animation seemed less fluid compared to May and Arlene. Otherwise the animations are great.
Don’t give up this project!
Tried Down-Scaling and it did not solve the issue of the line while proving the screen in Mays room.
