Welcome to PastelSoft!

 Frequent Flyers 0.2 Windows Release: http://www.mediafire.com/?2e1wyy5jgc3ug7p

Welcome to PastelSoft! What is it, you ask? That's a fair question! PastelSoft is a community funded and supported studio whose goal is to make erotic visual novels, games, comics, and potentially many other fun things involving the lighter side of kink. We believe that many fetish communities are under-served and take whatever small amount of media they can get from the litany of talented artists and writers, but no combination of the media to bring it together in a package. Art without stories, stories without art. Not to mention none of them include things like music or game mechanics which could make the kink that much more exciting. We also believe in the power of the community, and plan to make all of our complete releases free to download and play.

It's a big undertaking, which is why we need your help! But we don't just want your hard-earned money, we also want your input. When we say it's community supported, that's what we mean. Since Paypal does not like erotic projects very much, we ask that if you want to donate or just inquire more about the project, you can email hentropy@hotmail.com. Don't worry, we still accept PayPal, it's probably just not a good idea to put a Donate button on this page. We enjoy both criticism and praise, even if you have no money to offer, we still enjoy any and all feedback.

Along with your input, we would like individuals talented in a certain fields to help contribute to the project. We would greatly appreciate any and all work done for free, and doing so could get your name out there. However, we will still pay (that's what the donations are for) anyone willing to contribute, with compensation to be negotiated. See the bottom of the page for exactly what kind of talent we're looking for with other information.

Unlike other crowd-sourced and community-funded projects, we're not offering a promise of something, but instead we already have a full-playable visual novel called Frequent Flyers available at the top of this page. It is a breast expansion/inflation-themed visual novel with art by foxmaster5. If you are not familiar with visual novels, they are like interactive visual storybooks. Some have branching storylines and different simulation elements, but Frequent Flyers is simple, for now. But it's also in a Beta and can be expanded to be a much bigger, more ambitious project. It's not a demo, and can stand alone as-is. Currently it only involves topless nudity, but can involve more. If you decide to donate, feel free to tell us what you would like to see, and depending on the feedback, we'll make a decision as what to further include.

But that doesn't mean this project is restricted to inflation-oriented fetishes and kinks. We only ask that it be on "softer" side of the kink spectrum,  nothing involving non-consensual stories or overly-dark themes. We tend to have a pretty open definition of "soft", so feel free to suggest things! Some suggestions include balloon-related kinks, light transformation, body expansion (including berry-ification, weight gain and other sub-genres), clothing kinks (cosplaying, crossdressing, socks/stockings, diapers), pregnancy, LGBT romance, and many other things.

We Are Looking For:

Artists: Artists of any kind will do, but keep in mind that art for these formats are different than normal commissions and as such will be compensated differently. Smaller and lesser-known artists work for us to become more known and to get notoriety.

Ren'Py Coders/Web Developers: Looking for people to help set up a more permanent website, as well as those who know their way around programming to help code and specialize the look of the games.

Musicians, Sound Effects, Voice Acting: This is another opportunity for prospective talent to get their names out there. We are specifically looking for voice actresses, especially those that can also do simple sound effects to potentially do audio stories for pay as well as females to play Millie in Frequent Flyers. We have no immediate need for male voice actors.
