Hello there you wonderful and super wholesome people!
Another week, another progress update!
First, thank you guys so much for being so understanding regarding my post last week. I really hate when I can't deliver on something I promised and I have to be held accountable for not giving you guys what you deserve - updates for the games. With me being sick I kind of had an excuse, but I still want to make it up to you guys, that's why I said that if you were a supporter in March, you'll get acces to the first beta of Chapter 2 regardless. Just message me once it's released and you get the links directly ( I can't really contact you on my own regarding this, so please reach out once the post is up! ). The good news is that I'm more or less fully recovered now. It's weird, "back in the day" a cold usually only lasted for 3-4 days max, now I'm basically bedridden for 1 1/2 weeks, feeling like shit. Maybe it's because I'm getting old, but maybe it's also because the colds are getting stronger. No idea.
Anyway, I'm also more or less done with the script and started to transition into making all the renders. I kinder underestimated that this first part of the first Chapter 2 day is way longer than I anticipated, but I think that's a good thing. For example, the ultra long Rei event you have after her reveal is my longest single person event for any game I made so far. I hope it's interesting enough for you to enjoy, especially since the MC will share a lot of information this time. The second event will be with Jackie, like I mentioned two weeks ago, and if you pay attention there she will mention a lot of things that will explain a few traits of Sarah in the original game. Since Jackie is also adopted it makes sense that he can see paralels to Sarah later on, even though she knew that she is adopted, compared to Jackie who only recently found out. Still, this event will show how close the MC and her are and from the looks of it, Jackie might want to be even closer. That's for you to decide though, if you want to open this path with her. Todays render is Amelie, though, in her dorm room. With Amelie I'm basically jumping into new waters since she is a character that is completely "new", she has no ties or connections to anyone, something I have never done before. If you think back to MNF, all of the girls were somehow connected to each other - Even Dianna, who was in contact with Fiona before etc. I hope you guys will enjoy Amelies company, though, especially since her first appearance was rather dramatic.
While the renders are being made I usually go back to Chapter 4 of My New Memories, which is almost at the length of the first prequel release - and I'm not even done with the first full day yet. Once I have my files back the rendering might take a while but it will be such a joy to put pictures on these events , especially anything that is related to Anna time. But I also want to slowly explore a path that I've never done before in any of my games, not on the first day, but it will get talked a lot about with Anna. Remember when Sarah mentioned Sabine's family, especially her mother, when she was in the hospital with the MC? I really want to dive into this part of kinks and I hope I can pull it off in a good way. I still want to stick what I can do best, which is wholesome household loving with no drama, but getting a bit kinkier ( like I did a few times in MNF ) is always fun, right?
And I feel like thats it for now, people. Sorry that there is not that much stuff to share, I still hope you are somewhat happy with this update. If anything comes up I'll let you guys know, until then, stay awesome!
