The pacifier project
A downloadable game for Windows
For a long time, I wanted to try my hand at developing an ABDL game. The pacifier project is my first shot at it. Currently at early beta stage, the backbone of the game is complete and ready for more content and polishing before the definitive release..
This game is free and will stay free. However, if you appreciate my work and want to support me, don't hesitate to take a look at my subscribestar page:
Following the mass banwave of creators on Patreon, I don't want to associate myself with them anymore. If you want to suppport me, you can go to my subscribestar page : https://subscribestar.adult/redsparrow
Thank you !
What is The pacifier project?
The pacifier project is an adventure-RPG taking place in a currently unamed city. While your character is living her life happily, you get caught in some events that involve a mysterious organization kidnapping young women. Will you be able to uncover the mystery surrounding the city, and keep your pants dry in the meantime?
This is a game focused on exploration and investigation. For now, there's no combat system, and the gameplay loop focus on exploring your surrounding and finding items (and of course, incontinence-related gameplay).
Who is on the team?
Me, myself and I. I'm a software developper with good knowledge in game development, even though I'm not the best 3D artist. This mean that the funds I'll be able to raise will go into buying assets to make the game prettier. As I'm alone, this is of course a long-term project, so don't expect updates every day!
What's next?
The current free downloadable build is the the first beta release (build 0.9.0). The content is up as far as the end of the third "level" and contain a fair amount of side content.
I release minor builds on my subscribestar (https://subscribestar.adult/redsparrow) in between free release, so don't hesitate to look it up if you're interested and want to support me.
The current available member-only build is release 0.9.9c
What I intend to do next is focus on creating content (levels, story path and side quests) before polishing existing systems.
I want to play a boy/ character customization/more clothes/whatever
You're right ! It's the core of an RPG to be able to customize your character and dress it up. However, as I said, I'm not a 3D artist, so developing news assets, especially high quality ones for the player, is very time consuming. That's why, for now, my main priority is content. As soon as I'll get enough funds, I'll buy news assets and I'll be able to open up to more customization settings. As I said, all the main system is working on the back-end, so as long as I got the asset, it will be easy to add it.
The boy character is now available in the current public release, 0.9.0, and there's a lot more customization added since the last buid.
I'm lost in the game. I don't know what to do.
Remember to use the diary to get usefull hints at what to do next. If you're really stuck, you can take a peek at a shared walkthrough available here. Be wary, it's heavliy spoilerish.
I want to unstuck myself/play with some game's values...
You can access the cheat console by toggling the option first in the settings, then pressing F12.
You can find a comprehensive list of the commands here.
I want to report a bug that I found.
Go here if you're unsure on how to report a bug.
And if I want <random feature>?
Most of the game core systems are in place. However, you can always drop me a mail at ABDLsparrow@protonmail.com or a comment, and I'll see if I can implement it.
How do I play?
WASD : move around. You can also toggle mouse movement in the setting. In this case, you can hold left click and move around with the mouse.
Right click + move mouse left-right/up/down : camera pan
I : open inventory
C : open equipment
E : interact with NPC/item
R : (after acquiring sneakers) : toggle run on/off
bottom left gear icon : open settings.
In inventory :
Click on an item to use it. If it's a piece of equipment, it will automaticaly swap with current equiped slot. Use the red cross to delete any item.
In equipment :
use the red cross to unequip the item and send it to inventory.
Customizable inputs will come later but for now it's not an high priority task.

when will the full version go public
Hello,
You can find this information on my latest devlog post here :
https://abdlsparrow.itch.io/the-pacifier-project/devlog/706990/upcoming-game-rel...
Cheers
Hey, really quickly how do I open that door to the pack in the hospital?
It get opened during the initial sequence of the hospital level, when taking the sample to the doctor.
Well it's closed now and it's been a while since I did the Hospital, is there any way to open it again?
EDIT: Also, the fire alarm only gets rid of the AGENTS, it does nothing with the ward staff or the office workers.
Should Ryan be in Diaper Club after I completed quest with his memories? He is no longer on the roof, neither in the club.
He's in vacation for now. He will probably return in the post-game content.
It won't let me cross the bridge. What do i do?
Hello,
What bridge are you talking about?
it was in the hospital
It's tied to story progression. If you follow the story after the haunted house, you'll naturally come to cross the bridge.
When's the final release?
Soon ! I'll make an announcement this week.
The Hype is real.
How far does the game content go im in the next town found the wishing well and 2 clues and cant progress further
Hello,
The public version don't include that area so I guess you're talking about the member-only version. It goes until the end of the game.
I can not seem to progress i checked the guide for help and it did not have anything about the are
The walkthrough will be updated till the end of the game when the public version will be updated. If you're stuck, you can throw me a PM so I can help you.
dose the game have bdsm content?
The public release doesn't yet, but the future release will have the caregiver bar, which include some light BDSM content like spanking.
so wil we be able to have mits tat kant be removed unles you ask sm on a pacigag with a strap or just spanking?
For now this kind of equipable items are not in the game but could be on the table as additional content for the caregiver bar.
Where memory glasses find?
diaper club? Can't understand see school?
Hi. open the door for the hat ghost
arcade fix what bug
Open the cheat console and type in camerasavefix, this will resolve the arcade bug.
What help what find can't understand
This is a side quest that is not yet available in the public version of the game. You'll have to wait a little bit.
what crying girl missing sister main story. what baby stuff?. can't understand find maybe bruh
I'm sorry, I can't understand well where you are stuck. Can you be a little more precise?
I'm sorry OK. Yes house see thank you. See city build crying girl find baby girl. :)
Ok, you seems unblocked now that you finished the tutorial. Have fun !
what lab box press e?
What find pacifier
Hello, you can find the walkthrough here if you need help.
Hi, could you reveal if at this moment the available endings differ more from each other? Once I chose the option to make a portable babification ray. The second time, the option to babify Jason and disable the machinery.
Other than what happens to Jason, are there any other differences at this point, such as changes in the world?
I also wonder if babyfication ray is usable in this version.
Hey,
In the current member-only build, the post-end game is not yet done. The ending you choose is "saved" on your save so any subsequent changes might get consequences later. The babyfication ray is not usable yet, but will soon get his use!
will the final version 9.6 be free
Hey,
like I posted in my 2024 roadmap devlog, the 1.0.0 will be free and should release later this year.
do u have a pasific month in mind
At this point it's not possible to give a precise date. I'll probably need around three months of work.
hi, I'm stuck at the start of chapter 4 of the main story (in diapered mode)
nothing has changed compared to 3 the street is clear now
but Jason stays at the library with his message to go see the cemetery and the hospital, I can't do anything, it's impossible to move forward
as for the mini quest to recover the key to the room on the floor of the house it's the same it is not available to me
in secondary quest I obtained the screwdrivers, re-opened the arcade room, obtained the object at the first success in the lab and obtained a wallet
Hey,
Did you finish the haunted house? If so, did you find the item that allow you to push crates? If not, you should go back a bit and backtrack to find it. It will allow you to find the key to the locked room and continue the story.
after a lot of try a i see the item , thx
I've just installed update 19 and, previously playing on public release, and I have two issues.
- Where could I find Ryan? I know that he should be outside the campus, but I cannot spot him. There is only one girl on a bench. I also walked through university, and did't find him.
- What I supposed to do with desperate girl? When I interact with her, while she cannot find keys, her holding bar appears, but I cannot do anything, after that there is only short dialog. Am I missing something?
Also hairdresser menu isn't displayed properly in resolutions lower than native, and it's impossible to choose haircut or exit the menu.
Heya,
- Ryan can be found on the university roof after you completed the school at night level. This include tricking the guard guarding the lab to sneak past him.
- At this stage, you have a small time windows to find her key lying somewhere close around and bring it to her. Even if you fail, this will still progress through her story and the next event is inside the university.
Thanks for the report about the hairdresser UI, i'll look into it. Do you have some example resolutions where the UI break?
Thanks, got it.
Now I wonder if Ryan mission is working properly for me. I suppose that one of the memories is in the Art Studio, and I need missing statue to solve that puzzle? I can't find in anywhere, and when I used cheat to get LostStatue item, there is no further interaction.
Problem with hairdresser UI apeared in 1366×768.
Also Ravenbrook supplier's mission to get package seems incomplete, guy standing by truck outside store in town says only about "fixing a knob". Is it a bug, or it's just incomplete so far?
It's probably because the item isn't tied to the flag. You can find the lost statue in a back alley of the upper district, near a bin.
Thanks for the input. I've corrected the hairdresser UI for all resolutions.
As for the supplier mission, it is complete. You first have to talk to the guy outside the store in Ravenbrook so the truck guy in the main city give you the package.
Thank you so much.
But the supplier mission still seems to be broken, I talked with a guy in Ravenbrook, and nothing changed.
Also Lizzie minigame on playgroud seems to be bugged. when it should start, my character is freezed. Unstuck command doesn't help, warping to spawn too. I can use my inventory etc, but I can't move.
And when I play with others in club, ending dialog is like in 3x loop. If I win:
1. Competitor gets punished. 2. Reloading the scene - now the dialogue plays as if I was the one who lost and I get laxative. 3. Reloaded once again, the same way.
This did not happen at the public release.
I must admit I'm a little conufsed as I can't reproduce the bug. The quest work fine on my side. The dialog you see belong to another worker. If it doesn't bother you, you can send me your player-log file to ABDLsparrow@protonmail.com so I can analyse it a bit further. Generally speaking, I prefer if you send me a mail for bugs so it's easier for me to tracks theses instead of comments.
As for the other bugs, I'll look into it. Thanks !
Il y a des bugs dans la version 18 :
- Après avoir trouvé la fille infantilisée (fin du tutoriel), je reprends le jeu dans la ville, devant la bibliothèque et non dans ma maison
- Quand je veux aller dans la maison hantée, je me retrouve dans la ville, devant la bibliothèque et non dans ma maison
Thanks for the head-up, it will be fixed in the next release.
Thank you for your answer. I tried as well the control F12 to get items. It does not work either.
A suggestion: could we by abd diapers or clothers (such as a dungaree) at the supermarket?
Make sure you activated cheat in the option to be able to use the console while typing F12.
ABDL diapers are accessible in the diaper club or the shady vendor after bringing him his suitcase, so you don't have to absolutely use the console, save some specifics items that are not obtainable by normal means for now.
I activated cheats in the option. When I type in the consol « giveitemCushiesDiapers » the gale does not recognise the code
You have to keep a space between giveitem and the item name.
where is the girl that is lost in the first mission school to home i tried doing the tutorial too and still couldnt find her
nvm after a few minutes i realized i had to look behind me
Where can we follow you and support the project now that patreon went nuclear?
Hey. You can see this recent post :
https://abdlsparrow.itch.io/the-pacifier-project/devlog/642656/about-the-ongoing...
For now, I don't know, but I'll be sure to post here when things will settle down.
Been meaning to ask, what plans do you have for Mary? As far as i know her calls Dont do anything
She's intended to be the "tutorial friend" that introduce you to new mechanisms but to be fair I haven't got the time to developp her as well as I want. She's gonna get some love one day.
why in shoping centre i have dark/lov visibility while i see on screen shot that there is normal light in there
Try toggling light on/off in the settings - Graphics. It's a small bug on initialization.
Thanks it help. But what about chests in Hospital level, there is no interaction with them but they look like they should have interaction
If you don't see an interaction bubble there's probably nothing. My plan is to go back and add a lot of small interaction and details to the world once I'm done with the 1.0 version of the game, so I'll probably add that here too.
Hello. I don't know English, so I translate everything through the mobile application, and it has a problem with the fonts when communicating between people. Could something simple be done about it? Thank you
Could you be more precise? What kind of issue do you encounter?
The font style is bright pink (so it's pretty), but the mobile photo translator has problems with it, so I have to rewrite the entire dialogues manually.
It's hard to give you a simple answer to this, but you're pointing something that need to be adressed. I'll see if I can prepare an accessibility option oto make the font more contrasted so it's easier to read.
Thank you
is the {coughted scene} Hospital Lab not finish? i use the new public release. :)
It's finished but to be honest I had troubles on how to wrap it up so it simply loop. I wish I had more time to do it better.
If you encounter a bug with the camera though, you probably need to use the debug command camerasavefix to resolve the issue
Aha,I have no problem with the camera! as i skip the level 2 with a new game and go to Hospital lab, say his/her frend "thats a trap" as i see the player wear a pacifier, baby pink diaper and a hospital towel. my question is, only from curiosity: What they want do with the player?
How to open the door for the hat ghost in the first floor? Since i got the item
You have to go from the other side. If you found the item, there's a switch nearby that open a door in the mansion garden that allow to meet with the hat ghost.
about the screwdriver part, why i can't give to the worker yet?
You first have to talk about the fuse to the arcade guy.
about the "You have to go from the other side. If you found the item, there's a switch nearby that open a door in the mansion garden that allow to meet with the hat ghost." I can't seem to find it. Any like indications? or images
i got the girl at the arcade ... how to recruit her? she just say that there's a rumour
You need to be a diaper club member and have the memory glasses.
i already in the diaper club and got the glasses ... so what next? i only have the achvement ( unexpectedly ) about recruiting her and i didn't do her memory game but i haven't seen her in the club?
I'll check the achievement, because if you didn't do her game and if she isn't in the club, it's probably a visual bug.
If you speak to her while wearing a diaper, you should get an option to get further than the rumor and engage a conversation with her about the club.
ok, now trying to fins memory shard but i need to save first. also where's another one to recruit?
I got the push item, i tried to push the crates from the park, why i can't?? it's like no avail .. and i can't equip it
Did you use it? You need to use it to gain the push skill.
Ok, my bad, still struggling to how to get to the hat ghost on the 1st floor, just gave up and do to hide and seek
Is it somehow possible to play this game on Android?
No, it's windows only. Android would require a very specific optimization, without even talking about touchscreen control.
Okay!
Ngl,this game is good,But I still have wonders,which are where is the upper city plaza
It's the area which you can access through two littles backstreets from the main city. You'll take a path up and arrive at a new part of the city. You can find one of theses path near the bus.
please put on stam so i can pay for full version
The game will never be on steam, for a number of reasons, the first and most important one being that steam really don't like fetish oriented game.
The full version will eventually be available here for free when the development will be over, so you'll be able to have it.
Enjoying the game so far.
If you take suggestions:
1)Have a rattle(when shaken) turn an NPC into mentally regressed babies.
2)Gun from the lab same thing or physical regression of NPC.
Neat ideas, I'm putting it in my backlog and I'll see if this is doable.
gun with physical regression
I unzipped the file, but when I tired putting into a new unity project It wouldn't work, I even redownloaded it and tried again and it didn't work. So i'm not sure how to play.
Hey,
you don't have to open it in the engine (the unity project). This is not the decompiled project, it's the compiled game. You just have to use the executable (.exe file) to launch the game.
won't let me unzip if it runs on unity than surely it should be able to run on Chrome I've never had this issue where I couldn't unzip and play a game that runs on unity before... if I'm doing something wrong than instructions would be appreciated...
Did you use 7zip? I think the basic windows unzipper won't work on 7z. I mainly use this because it's more efficient at compressing files that .zip.
I installed 7-zip but can't find any other application but 7z
yep it says code execution cannot proceed because unityplayer.dil was not found so it's not working. In short the game is completely unplayable for me because if I try to play it through 7zip my computer won't even recognize unityplayer... Sorry I'd love to give my support to this project but there are either too many hoops to shoot through just to start the game or it's just not playable for some peoples computers. Neither are things that I personally am looking for in a game.
Try running it as administrator. The file is here, either it didn't get extracted properly, or the system won't let you read it.
Edit : you don't play it through 7zip. You have to extract it.
I have an issue, I can't seem to find the right grave for the Haunted House Key; all of them just show a ghost and do not give me a key (also completely regressed by this point so if this is somehow a blocker that's probably why), did manage to find the Lamp, but it doesn't SEEM to make a difference.
The right grave is at the far back, the closest to the back of the graveyard. I guess it's easy to activate the nearby one by mistake, I'll try to put it farther.
tbpf i think downloading the hotfix for the latest version fixed it, as I had already tried that grave prior to the hotfix and it didn't work. So Probably asked and answered at this point.
I like the new UI, and also noticed the potties in the hospital, can't wait for the feature to use them!
However there is a major issue with the saving system. After a certain point it buggs out and i can't save because it get's stucked on the screen. And if i quit the game and want to load my save it buggs out the menu and can't load it because it get corrupted basically.
Because of this i'm stuck on the hospital escape part, it's frustrating all on it's own because i get detected easily and can't run but the walking npcs can fast walk, and bump into each other where their script gets stuck in a loop.
This is quite strange. Did you use an old save from a previous public version?
If you feel really frustrated, you can use the cheat command skip_leveltwo to skip the whole hospital.
If you'd like me to go deeper, you can mail me your save and your player log (if you don't know where they are, just mail me and I'll give you the path) so I can analyze it as from your description alone it will be hard to debug.
I used an old save file first, then started a new game and it did the same thing.
Where does the game stores the save files?
here : C:\Users\YourWindowsSessionName\AppData\LocalLow\RedSparrow\The Pacifier Project\
You can mail the files to my mail adress. Don't hesitate to put as much detail as you can to help me reproduce the bug (what are the exact steps you're doing to trigger the bug, etc...)
Okay, so i can't really send them atm because i started a new save and it hasn't appeared (yet), but if it reapperas i'll be sure to send them over to you.
Anyway here are some bugs that i found recently:
sometimes the e button for interacting stays and in many cases the interactions plays when pressing e even if im not there where it takes place
best friend achievement bugged (or i think it is, it's not consistent when do i exactly get them)
the continue button not always works on dialogues or actions while pressing enter
the hunger bar goes down too fast i think
the place is buggy where the is the bakingsoda, the ground disappears and so on.
maturity sometimes goes down when using the toilet
still hearing the city ambience in player house after finishing tutorial
and one more thing, after i press the red button to distract the guard only one leaves and another stays there with his back, and i can't past him because i get detected
Btw, where can i find the sneakers? (and do they work in the hosptial?)
Thanks for all theses reports. I'll look into theses. Some are already found and resolved on my side.
You can try pushing the button more than once. Maybe the other one was closer at that time. You can also find an item to stun or distract them through the diaper club quest.
The sneakers are a very early item that you can get by bringing a bag to a runner girl near the spawn point. But yo ucan't run inside. However, yo ucan get a speed boost equivalent to a sprint if your stomach is full.
is there a way to get into the bar with low maturity?
Yes, there's a few. The most straightforward way to do it is to find a weapon to hit or throw to the guard to stun her. Check for the rattle in the diaper club or the toy hammer in the arcade.
Hey, RedSparrow, I'm completely stuck on the teacher's quest, despite me (correctly) completing it, it just prompts me to do it again, no matter how many times or what I try.
Also of note, the shop UI refuses to close, no matter what I try, and I read that this triggers the event.
One last thing, how do you get in the bar? I don't see any way to continue the quest, and when I did get inside (by literally pressing e, without even talking to the guard), none of the NPCs do anything of note.
At which point of the teacher's quest are you stuck? Buying the diaper pack I guess?
You're not the only one reporting me that you can't close the shop UI but for now I didn't reproduce the issue. Can you tell me if you're playing in full screen and in which resolution?
For the bar, if you're low maturity, an event should trigger right as you enter. I'll try to reproduce it to see why it didn't trigger. Same thing ,the guard should have stopped you beforehand.
Edit: Nevermind, I found the source of the bug. I guess you used the "return to title" menu button at some point during your play and I discovered It affected some backend functions. Won't dive into it much more, I'll quickly fix it. To prevent the bug to occuring until I fix it, avoid using the "return to menu" button.
Yea, no event triggered for the bar, the only time I can get an event to trigger is if the maturity is at the level of an adult, in which case, all you get is a broken scene (with a completely broken camera once they try and punish you).
My resolution is also 1920x1080, and I'm playing in FS.
Upd: Teacher event being broken is caused by FS.
For the broken camera, it's because you likely used a skip button once. There's a specific debug command for this : camerasavefix
This will fix any issues you could have with events and camera seemingly broken.
As I mentionned in my edited post, I'm working on a fix but it seem a lot of issues are caused by the back to title button.
How do I use the toilets? I stand in front of one and press E, but instead of going to the bathroom, my Maturity decreases.
It mean you don't need to go enough to warrant using the toilet. It's a feature made to promote right "timed" use of the loo.
My character is holding his crotch, farting and won't let me run, I taught those were the signs to use the toilet?
Uh,indeed. And using the toilet don't relieve this?
Nope, I press E, there's a little sound and my maturity decreases, without reliveing bowels.
I'll look into it. Thanks for the report.
When I'm playing I found that I can't push the crates so I create a new game but still can't
Did you found the push skill item in the haunted house?
You release a bugfix?
IDK if Red did so, But.... I am hoping to learn more about his plans
No,I didn't release any major bugfixes for now. Before that I have to have a good picture of how many bugs get found and which ones overlap. I might do it in the next few days though.
I'm sorry I can't give you the bug report for my 4th save of where the Store menu bugged out.
The cheat menu doesn't open and the game crashed at the part where i was at the cafe talking to my school friend.
You have to toggle the option for the cheat in the settings. What do you mean crashed? Did the game suddenly stopped?
Does any one know where I can recruit new members for the Diaper Club? I have the Public beta build but I am unsure of how to find and do the other content in the game.
Edit: Does anyone know how to use the Memories Glasses and the diaper glasses?
Another Edit: I am getting frustrated within the Office at the Hosptial IDK who to talk to and who to avoid, I know the guards but the office workers aren't as obvious to me.
