Hello there you super amazing and very wholesome people!

Another week, another progress update!

The case where I was a witness two weeks ago continues tomorrow with more witness hearings, but I'm not going to be there anymore. My lawyer will, though, and he will update me on everything that's being said there. Nothing else going on in that regard so that's all I can share for now. Tomorrow ( 23rd ) and Thursday ( 25th ) are the last hearings for this month, then it will be decided if they actually gonna go through till the end of may or if this will be enough. Since the main culprit is still not back in Germany, more hearings shouldn't really be needed, I think. Once he is back in Germany though it will all start again. Hopefully I will also get some news regarding the case against me this week, though.

Okay, let's talk about the games

The script for the second beta/day of the prequel is about 70% done. I decided to try something else again to further deepen the relationship the MC has with certain girls. If you remember, when I announced the prequel girls I mentioned that not all of them will appear in the main game. Well, I changed my mind. The initial plan was just for Rei, Lea and Katharina to appear but now Jackie will 100% be part of the main game as well at some point. The reason is that initially, I just wanted her to be a "good friend" of the MC. During writing for the prequel it quickly turned out that making her his best friend is actually better and once you see the dialogues between them, you will understand why. She has a very good sense for people and their emotions and helps the MC through a confusing phase with Rei. The second day will also have some lewd action with a girl that people that played the beta probably didn't expect to get a treatment like that yet. It's going to be more of a funny and cute lewd event because both the MC and the girl are still very inexperienced. It's something new to write for me as well because even the MNF MC had some experience with women while the MNM MC in the prequel basically knows nothing. I guess he could use a teacher, some kind of red haired cougar...Maybe she helped him become the good lover he is in the main game? You'll see once you play it. The second day/beta also features some more stuff with Amelie but I'm still trying to figure out how to make her become a good friend of the MC. I have something in mind that happened in a book I read a lot of times before. Maybe they're going to share an experience that doesn't need much explaining - It will just lead to them becoming true friends. TOdays render is Sabrina in the lounge of the uni, where she has lunch with the MC, a good time to talk about a lot of things.

Now that I decided to include all the girls from the prequel in the main game as well, I was thinking about a way to introduce them. It's going to be very very easy with one of the girls, but some of the others might need some more time before they can appear. Now that the MC has all his memories back I can actually do some more "flashbacks" where I might end up using renders from the prequel to show what happened there. I know that not everyone is a fan of these, though, so I will make sure to use it rarely and only when the time fits. Like I said a few times, I want people that never played or intend to play the prequel still know who these girls are - and the other way around, too! Still, I wrote quite a bit for Chapter 4 again as well and if it continues like that, the full script will be ready sooner than I thought. Which will make the waiting for my assets even more painful, I think, but fingers crossed it won't be that long anymore.

And I think that's it for this week. A little longer progress update again, so thanks for sticking around and reading it! If anything comes up or I hear something from my lawyer this week, I'll make another post for you guys. Stay awesome!

Hello there you cute and very wonderful people!

Another week, another progress update!

First I want to say thank you again. I feel like I'm doing this more often than usual but it's also how I really feel - Super grateful. The comments and messages I received on my post from last tuesday were amazing. Now that this step is done I really hope that the case in general will move forward and I will be able to get my stuff back as soon as possible. Fingers crossed and again, thank you from the bottom of my heart guys. Lots of love for each and everyone of you!

Okay, let's talk about the games.

The first prequel Beta is now also available for $5 supporters. I changed it up a little because I needed as much feedback as I can to continue work on the prequel. So far all of the comments have been very very positive and people seem to really enjoy what I'm doing with the story there. This is of course the ideal scenario for me because now I can focus even more on expanding the story the way I wanted to. The second beta might even be ready this month - I'm having a blast writing the next part of the story. Especially Rei, a character that is very important to me, seems to be getting a lot of love and curiosity. And of course Katharina, Lea's mother, has seen a lot of fan love as well ( as Lea herself too ). Sabrina and Bethany are a given and Jackie's story seems to have touched a lot of people as well. The only uncertain part is Amelie but I'm sure I will get there for you guys ( the second day will show a lot of interesting sides regarding her ). Again, thank you guys for all the feedback so far. If you have any concerns, thoughts etc, feel free to message me here or on Discord, I'd love to hear everything you guys might have to say. Todays render is Lea in the morning of the second day!

Of course I also worked on Chapter 4 again. If I hit a small wall in the prequel I just switch over to the main game and continue there. It's kinda what I did with MNF and MNM in general , just so I avoid a possible burnout. But I have to admit, it has been a long long time since I even felt close to having one. I mean, I had the break I had to take mentally after everything that has happened but I feel that now, with all the positive feedback I got regarding the prequel, I'm almost fully back and I can't even describe how good that feels. Of course there is always this lingering thought in my head that I want to continue work on Chapter 4 and I miss all of the main girls so much - Especially Anna and Yukiko. But working on the prequel filled me with a lot of hope and passion again, something that I feared was gone forever. I can't wait to hear your guys feedback on Chapter 4 once you play it.

I also started to create some of the characters for MNF2 already. I'm gonna go the classic way, though, so I started with Sandra and the twins ( since Sandra was the first character I ever made ). I don't have anything to show yet but it won't be too long until you can see how Sandra will look 18 years in the future. I mean, not that different if you paid attention to the MNF story, but different enough to say "Man, Sandy is a hot milf".

And I think that's it for now. Progress on the prequel is going way better than I expected and like usual, if I hear anything from my lawyer or the court, I'll let you guys know. A little shorter progress update this time, but I feel like we can use one of those from time to time, right? Stay awesome!

The prequel Beta is now available for $5 Supporters!

I told you guys I'd post a little update when I had my hearing as a witness/victim in the court today, so here it is.

It was...Harder than I thought it would be. I knew that it wasn't going to be easy, but I was extremely nervous and if I would have been there alone, I don't think I would have been able to manage it. My questioning lasted around ~2 hours and while the judge and state attorney were nice, two of the 4 lawyers of the accused were pretty bad with their questions. Still, after my hearing was done some other witnesses were heard and while I was on my way home my lawyer called me. He basically just told me that I did a good job, that I didn't say anything that could be used in the case against me and that this is the one we are now looking forward to. He requested an update on the case file and should hopefully get it soon. We don't know much yet, there were a few side notes on it in the current case but we don't know to what extent. I'm not sure if there will be any significant update before the four culprits that were there today get their sentence, though, which could be at the end of this or next month.

All in all I'm just glad that this part of the whole thing is over now. I might have to appear in court again if the main culprit returns to germany - My lawyer thinks that he eventually will come back because his parents are urging him to it, I think. I'm not so sure though, but we'll see. His friends are pretty pissed at him though, so he can be glad he will instantly get arrested if he sets a foot in germany.

I really hope that the case where they see me as culprit will get solved sooner than later. It really sucks that it has been 7 months already and while it's still emotionally draining I'm glad that the prequel is so well received and I can continue to work on that, to at least bring you something in the My New Memories universe. I'll keep you guys posted regarding both cases if something comes up, the next witness hearing is on the 23rd and 25th, so there is some time left there ( I'm not going to attend these sessions, my lawyer will, I never want to see these people in my life again ).

Thank you guys again for all your positive comments and that I was in your thoughts and prayers. That really helped with keeping it together today and I was able to power through all of it because I knew that I have a strong and passionate community behind me. I know that I will get through all of this thanks to you guys, and once I have my assets back I'm going to be in full effect again.
