Sorry for not having posted an update lately, but as most of you can imagine there hasn't been much to post about. Game is most definitely still being worked on, but I haven't been able to give it the attention I'd like to. I honestly considered putting it on hold status even though there is slow progress, but I think that would do more damage than good as far as maintaining interest.

I can promise you that anyone who has contributed since last release who needs/needed to step back from supporting for any reason will see a private message from me for the update when it is released.

As for the why of the delays... I don't like to lean into the sad excuses that life throws at us, but the summary was besides the rebuild of our home our family lost last year that is finally nearly done (and has been an ordeal), we were also looking after my mother, who sadly passed from pancreatic cancer in late April.

While that is/was impactful to me to say the least, I'm a grown man who has lost a parent and loved ones before and it didn't keep me from being functional, but the time involved to take care of her, her final wishes, finances, etc, all was on me as well and time is a luxury none of us have in abundance.

The majority of that trouble has mostly been handled now, but when it rains it pours. I had made some efforts to work on my own personal health and ended up making it worse by re-herniating a disc in my back Friday (an experience I went through almost 15 years ago now... probably the same disc). When you feel that pop in your back once in your life, well, you know when it happens again.

Anyway, not looking forward to dealing with that or the impending move, but life trudges on and I'm looking forward to it calming the heck down so I can work on my game! In the meantime if anyone had any questions for me about the game that I can answer without giving away the major plot points, feel free to ask!

Just a quicky update. Writing has progressed quite well, but not the rendering. I've been more busy during the day than usual lately, so aiming to release the next update in March. In the meantime, here is Bobbie who is quite happy to see you awake again... especially for those on her romantic path.

General progress update: Writing for Episode 2 / Arc 2 is going well, though I’m running a bit behind on rendering. The delay is for a good reason, though. As many of you who’ve been following for a while know, our family went through a severe house fire around this time last year. The good news is that our new home is finally nearing completion!

Happy New Year! After a few extra days Arc 2 Standalone version .001 is finally up for all supported platforms on Mega links (uploading viking links soon). You should be able to load a save from the last scene of Arc 1 from v 3.44 (I hope lol). If not there is a custom start and quick start (the later are probably better overall for save compatibility). Totals are around 700 images, 10 videos, some more music (which I'm a big fan of) and the odd sound or two. Hope you all enjoy it and look forward to more!

Quick update and Season’s Greetings! I didn’t quite get enough renders finished in time for the test build I wanted, but I’m still aiming to release the first build of Arc 2 this month. Christmas is the goal — though it’s a busy time — but either way it’s definitely landing this month, and it’ll go straight to all paid members because ’tis the season! Wishing you all a Sexy, Happy Holiday!

P.S. Oh, those of you who are just following if you preferred a direct purchase to subbing, Steam Winter sale is on and we are participating! Links in top pinned post!

Just a small progress update. As you may have noticed the links for Arc 1 are all fully updated and consistent with the steam release (so updated for Japanese and Spanish).

It is the basis for Arc 2 (which will be standalone), I plan to carry over all the variables and save games from the end of the latest Arc 1 which will be compatible to carry over your choices. Even so there will be the capability to just jump start Arc 2 and input the important previous choices or just pick the default start (which will be all romances/sexual stuff open).

I've already written the next several scenes and outlined the overall targets/story I want to hit with this Arc and rendering has begun, but I am aiming to have a bit more content ready for the start before I release the first test build, similar to the first release of Arc 1 which had the first several chapters on release.

There will be teasers as I go in the discord for anyone who doesn't mind small spoilers.
