She's your private dancer: You pick her dance, her clothes, even her music. She's Dream Stripper, a new online three-dimensional game launched June 13 by Ensign Games Inc.
"Have her writhe or spin just when and how you want, or create an erotic and exotic dance program," the company said, announcing the game's launch. "You are in control. As she dances, watch her expressions change, pause the dance, move the camera to watch from any angle, and change or remove her outfits. You can even insert your own MP3 files and have her dance to your favorite tunes."
Ensign spokesman David Potter told AVNOnline.com the company had sought to return to game working "for a while," but discovered the market had changed for smaller game companies. Then they bumped into someone from a larger company who dropped an accidental revelation into their laps.
"[He] talked about the new Dungeons and Dragons and said, 'you should see the barmaid jiggle,'" Potter said. "And we got this idea that we could make women jiggle and make them look very realistic."
The company went the distance to make it happen: They hired actual strippers to shoot their images in real-time motion capture to create their for-now single, softcore stripper.
An erotic, lifelike virtual model drawn by a top Hollywood graphic artist and rendered to 3-D by "a highly professional development team," the Dream Stripper can be used in Total Control Mode, letting you customize all her clothes before playing the game; and, Game Mode, a game where you make money by having the lady dance – and, perhaps unsurprisingly, the more exciting the dance, the greater the tips – before spending the money on more exotic moves, costumes, and lighting effects.
"We didn't want to go into XXX or anything, we wanted to make it very softcore, like Playboy: The Mansion," Potter said. "And we're very happy. We're trying to get it out there and make it big enough that we can do more strippers. We want to kind of stitch the dances together better.
"You get these strippers in here and how do we define what they do? We came up with about 50 or 60 of these moves and used only 30 in the game," continued Potter, who admitted it was a tough call picking which moves not to use. "It was an interesting session to sit down and have them think about how procedurally you do a strip tease. And when we got them in the motion capture studio they had to put on this suit that wasn't very erotic."
Dream Stripper uses the Shadow View graphics engine with the latest shader-based graphics technology, which allows you to watch from across the room or from just inches away.
Potter said the early reception to the game is good and the company is trying to get out and advertise it more. "But anything to do with any sort of adult material, the game sites shy away from it," he said. "Even though there's no nudity on the site and the demo has no nudity. You have to buy the game and type in a code and activate her."
