Hello there you wonderful and very cute people!
Another week, another progress update!
This week will be the 6 year Anniversary of the first ever game release from me. On August 31st 2019 I posted My New Family 0.1 on the internet and I will have my usual anniversary post coming up on that day, so stay tuned for that!
Let's talk about the games!
As some of you may have noticed, the next Beta for the prequel released yesterday for $15 and higher tier supporters. If you want to play this beta right away, you can do so if you are in the right tier and join the Discord ( I can also DM you the links, though ). This beta will be available for $5 and higher tier supporters this week, most likely on wednesday ( same might go for Steam ). So far the feedback I have gotten made me pretty happy, since most of you amazing people are still confused what the hell might have happened between Bethany and Katharina. Katharina is also in todays progress update render, where she has a more serious talk with the MC regarding something he did the day before. She is not very happy with him but also not too strict, but it's still interesting to see Katharina like that ( especially if you consider what they did before if you followed a certain path with her ). I'm already working on the next part of Chapter 2 and I'm very happy it took me less than a month to release this beta. I'll try to release the next one even faster, I'll keep you posted regarding that!
While I finished up the latest beta, I also invested some more time into My New Family 2. It's interesting for me to write stuff about MNF2 without even having finalized what kind of engine I want to use for the characters and stuff. It's still up in the air, but writing up the story is usually more difficult than coming up with renders, at least for me. I started to write a cute morning dialogue with one of the tennants and the MC, but it's nothing concrete yet. More concrete stuff is in the works for My New Memories Chapter 4 though, but that would be too much of a spoiler. Let's just say it involves Sarah in a very interesting way ( again ). That's all I'm going to say.
I also got an email from my lawyer that we are trying to get a response from the state attorney again. I asked a few AIs ( chatgpt etc ) why the state attorneys are so slow here and the most common answer is "understaffed and too much to do". I feel like that is a super weak excuse for something that happened almost 2 years ago, but okay. I'll keep you guys posted on that.
And I think thats it for now, guys. If anything new comes up I'll let you guys know asap. Until then, enjoy the beta if you are a supporter and stay awesome!
