Totally upfront, this only has 2+ weeks worth of progress in it, there was about a month of "experimenting" with mini-games that left several versions... unpresentable. So what do we got?! - Continue main story after the dream sequence. Hikari had her memories stolen by her... "Mother?" the hell? - Krish needs a boot in the face. - Cleaned up some stuff in Chapter One, namely the Much Beloved... "Game Overs". Those got some of the newer mechanisims I've been working on for the post credit cut scenes rubbed on em. There's also a more natural story in them. I wouldn't remove the little sex scenes, but they make more sense now... I hope. - New music for the main menu. I lisen to it all day every saturday as I develop/test/repeat...
The final battle with Krish has begun, but a more dangerous enemy has been watching from the shadows...?
Not gonna beat around the bush, this quad of updates contains the sex battle with Krish where he "takes" poor Hikari and leaves either his favorite little Elf Idol Ayre or his own precious daughter Lala-fon to get ravaged by you in return. The goal is to cock block the fuck outa that fat ol' bastard, but it's gonna be HARD... giggidy.
Following that, win, loose, or skeet-skeet, don't panic... some one wants to speak with the two of you. And it won't be plesant.
I hope everyones had a good week! I know the girls have! Having finished both sides of Chapter five, there are six possible outcomes. Three for Ayre, and three for Lala-fon (Hoshimi), anyway it ended, at a minimum ether will be coming back to your quarters with ether Sasa or Tsuki respectively. I wonder how Hikari will feel about having a new roommate?
Hard decision, no matter what Krish want's another round of that game from chapter two. You'll get the choice of one of two girls to send depending on which chapter you did, if you did it well! Sasa or Firth, or Tsuki or Kojia! No ones particularly excited about it, but who would be? Other than us of course. ^^
Following which, we get a check in w/ ol' Rojin who's been starting his own lil harem... ol bastards got the touch.
This weeks update contains a full four parallel sub paths so even though there is a normal amount of content this week, it will seem shorter if you just do one of them. They do all play out more or less the same for all the girls.
Continuing on, we had the option to choose one of up to four women to set on Krish. I'm gonna spoil it for ya right now, they might have something to say about it!
I'll break down the mechanics of what's going on. One, the testing override section at the beginning of the chapter remains on and has been expanded to let ya update Firth, Sasa, and Kojia's affinities since they matter in this update.
Depending on which girl was chosen, you'll see one of four animations. If Sasa's affinity is low, you'll see a different fifth one since she doesn't like ya enough to do the other one. That said this week is the players first shot at Sasayaki's virginity, assuming she likes you and hasn't lost it already!!!
Changes: - Fixed broken Gallery entry - Kojia affinity gate in last weeks content - New UI elements. - More Virginity/Prego triggers
Bug fixes: - Updated the way Ren'py is writting to the persistent. It will now cull out unneeded things like Audio, picture, and videos seen.
Thank you for sticking with me. This final public entry for chapter four marks the completion of the comic book recap, including events that haven't actually been release in the comic! This entry brings us closer to Hikari herself with a recap of her story line from the comic. Spend time with her on her peaceful home-world where the only things she needs to worry about are getting the vegetables her family farms to the town folks, how much fun it is to run through the meadow, and weather or not to let her boyfriend kiss her. Be with her as that peace is shattered by a Loci invation. Hikari and her parents must flee the swarm to hold out until help can arrive! Take her hand and save her before the Loci finish off what they started. Who is Hikari? What is this strange light she carries? Please enjoy! =^^=
This update finishes up the telling of the Main Characters time as a Guardia trainee w/ Midori. A story that begun in this context by being told from Tsuki's perspective now pivots to the main characters and a mystery narrator in parts. This was to be the big farewell to the guest characters from my friend Roman Humes original version of Dr. Amana Sexual Therapist for which he's still working on updating it with newer rendering techniques so please check out his discord! In any case, we'll hear about the fate of the many people the MC lost along the way... Please enjoy! =^^=

I'm updating the monthly goal to 1k per month... which... means this thing threatens to actually become truly legit. Something I'm not entirely prepared to accept.
Goal is the same, refresh the hardware. In the year between setting the $400 mark and now ram has gone from $150 to around $1000 for the same product. I was able to put one machine together before all that and am using it now but everything is still rendering on a trio of 1080ti's, nothing to sneeze at, but I'd like to do better. The chipsets are garbo, two 10 year old Ryzen 3's. Those need to get upgraded to Ryzen 7's like in the box we built last year.
You guys have been and continue to be freekin awesome! Thank you for your generosity! Lets make fantastic Visual Novels together! Thank you!

Looking at upgrading the hardware, perhaps to support AI for future projects. The current pair of machines being used for Hikari have been around for 8 years now and although have been upgraded, they are reaching the end of their serviceable lives.
These both originally cost $600 lol and came with GTX1050's. Not bad for the price. Since then they've both been upgraded with GTX 1080ti's (I love them), and 128GB of ram. But they are using 9 year old Ryzen 3's and pretty outdated motherboards.
A mediocre new PC w/ Ryzen 7 and a 5080 is running about 3k right now... god lord.... a Ryzen 9 w/ a 5090 is twice that?!
Ok so hopefully prices will be more affordable when we reach this goal!
Thank you for supporting my work, may it be Hikari: First Interlude or whatever has come next!
