Anna...Looking pretty cute...

Well, for today I decided to use the temporary Anna to show you guys a render with her. I'm still pretty happy with how she turned out but I might change her eyes a little so they are bigger, I'm not 100% sure yet.

There is a render for $5 and higher tier supporters where her clothes are missing!

Hope you guys like this cute render of the crazy half German half Japanese lady!

Hello there you wonderful and very cute people!

Another week, another progress update!

Well, I thought I was done with re-creating the main cast with temporary characters but I totally forgot Jessica. So in todays progress update you see the new, TEMPORARY, model of her! And I think for the first time ever I actually prefer the new model over her old one, but that might just be me. Now the known main cast is really done and I also made some more adjustments to characters you've already seen ( Lena now has her original skin tone, for example ). The last three I have to do are Karla, Emily and Caroline ( the ginger twins ). I only showed you a few renders of them and they didn't appear in the main game yet, but they will play a big role in Chapter 4, as you can imagine. Once I'm done with these last three ( should be sometimes this week ), I will work on the demo for My New Family 2 and then, possibly, release a first full beta of Chapter 4 ( since I've basically written more than half of the script for Chapter 4 already ). I'm not 100% set on this but this is my plan. Don't forget to share your feedback about Jessica in the comments!

I was very worried when I initially started to make these temporary models that I would absolutely hate them, but I'm super happy that this is not the case. While I prefer the old ones and will always prefer them over the temporary models, I think using them to release Chapter 4 sooner than later will help a lot. Chapter 3 release has been almost three years ago after all and I think it's about time you guys get to see what happens after Anna wakes up. I'm super motivated , way more than I thought I would be, and I think that 2026 will be a great year for me as a developer and for you, the players. My New Family 2, Chapter 4 of the main game and, hopefully, Chapter 3 of the prequel. I think that is a very, very likely scenario. I have to admit that my motivation downspiraled at the end of last year and earlier this month as well, when I made the decision. But I'm happy to report that it's going rapidly up again!

And I feel like thats it for now, people. If there is anything new to report or to show ( like Karla and the twins ) I'll let you guys know right away! Until then, stay awesome!

Something different...The Temporary Lena...

I decided to change things up a little. Why should I only use these models as temporary chars for Chapter 4 if I can use them for the weekly renders as well?

Here is Lena in a cute sports outfit!

For $5 and higher tier supporters the clothes are magically missing!

What do you think? Is this sporty Lena as cute as the Lena as you remember?
