Mother's Devotion: Reimagined - A Return to the Roots
!(Re-Upload due to broken images)!
Hey everyone,
So… about that elephant in the room. The one named Clarissa.
To the (probably accurate) 20 of you who’ve kept faith, whispering "one day, she'll return" into your coffee mugs… this post is for you. You were right.
Mother's Devotion is coming back.
Not as a simple update, but as "Mother's Devotion: Reimagined." A full, from-the-ground-up rebuild in a new engine, with a sharper story, and the vision I always wanted for Clarissa but wasn't skilled enough to execute years ago.
Let’s get transparent about the "why."
The original had heart, but it also had flaws. The storytelling felt rushed. Clarissa's motivation that crucial break that pushes someone toward the taboo was muddy. One minute she was shattered, the next… weirdly fine? What a bullshit! (My words from back then, not yours). I’m cringing at my old self, but that's growth.
This time, we start in the deep end of despair. One month after the fight and divorce bomb. Clarissa isn't "fine." She’s depressed, drowning in debt, terrified of parenting, and utterly lost. Her guide out of this pit? Her gloriously terrible, "whorish archetype" sister. Clarissa starts at rock bottom. This is her hero's journey, and it begins with someone else’s hand pulling her up, before she learns to walk a path… far beyond society's norms.
What’s New Under the Hood?
-
A Feast for the Eyes: I’ve ditched the old graphics mod for the DHH Mod in NeoStudio. My GPU is weeping, but the HDR lighting and overall look is stunning. This isn't just an update; it's a visual glow-up.
-
Deeper Choices, Real Branches: The gameplay loop is familiar (daytimes, maps, events), but now paths will truly diverge. Helping Max with bullies? Do you confront them yourself (we can imagine how that ends), or ask his friend Kevin? Each branch unlocks unique scenes and can open up entirely new routes later. Your decisions will carve Clarissa’s world.

Characters Reborn:
-
Clarissa is still our sarcastic, dark-humored MILF, but now her pain is real, her bad decisions are understandable, and her climb is everything.
-
Emma is now a social media-obsessed teen with streaming dreams. The internet is a dangerous playground. What kind of "star" will you help her become?
-
Max is less "shy boy," more "self-conscious young man" dealing with bullying. He’s not hopeless, he just needs to find his courage.
What Now? What’s the Plan?
For you, nothing changes yet. I remain 100% focused on finishing the main story of Out of Puberty. That’s priority one.
But in the background, Mother’s Devotion: Reimagined is now in active pre-production. I’m building it on the robust skeleton from OOP, which should speed things up (once I find the damn maps… a perpetual nightmare!).
My timeline estimate: Roughly 3 months to craft a polished, playable Public Edition demo.
You, my supporters, will get the first look. There will be Alpha builds, Beta tests, and exclusive Demo drops for you to break and critique. Your feedback will shape this reimagining.
This is a passion project, a redemption arc, and a love letter to the story that started it all. I’m nervous, excited, and burning with ideas.
Thank you for your unbelievable patience. The devotion is back.
With a full heart and a loud GPU,
Fluffy
