Dev Update! 7/2/25


Hey, hey folks! First off, let me apologize for getting this up so late. It's been a beast of a week, and I was prioritizing getting the new game build done, over any blog posts.
As you may (or may not) have seen, there's a new Alpha version of the game available for $5+ subscribers, located here. This has the remade Chapter 1, new material for Chapter 2/3 (not a total redo, just a couple scenes revised with art and dialogue), and the following Chapters 4-7, which end as you go to pick up Ashe. So far, only one game-breaking bug has popped up, which occurs in Chapter 6 when you're on Nicki's just-friends path, due to a missing label jump. But, I've got it (along with some typos, art glitches, etc.) fixed, and I'm going to try to push out the Beta tomorrow. At present, I'm just fixing up some character headshots to better reflect the art. This is something I'd like to eventually do for the whole game. But, it does present a challenge due to the number of characters and costume changes. So, for now I'm just doing it for any new material, and the old stuff will still use the standard/generic headshots.
In addition to the Alpha, I put out a new teaser for Chapter 11, available to $15+ supporters. This is a self-contained build, so it functions by asking you a few questions, which set your variables before the chapter opens. Obviously it won't function this way in the final version, but for now it's a nice way to check out the content.

Finally, I did a little work on Viola's scene for Chapter 11. Just exploring the visuals a bit, and setting the scene. You can see some clipping on her shorts in image three, which I'll need to fix. Besides that, I'm enjoying the vibe of the scene a lot.
I think that's all I've got for you, today! Look forward to a fun, sexy Fourth of July post this weekend, featuring pin-ups of all your favorites. But until then, take care of yourselves -- and thank you for your support!

Dev Update! 6/24/25

Hey, folks! Hope you're all doing well this week. I'm in the doldrums, but I suspect it'll pass soon enough. Onwards and upwards.
I thought I was finished with the renders I needed for the unified Season 1, and then I remembered.. Chapter cards! I wanted to do those. So, I'm going to get on that this week, and get them all plugged in where necessary. Besides that, I'm still just working on the code and dialogue tweaks, playtesting, and trying to make sure I don't break anything. At present, the plan is to get the unified Season 1 out on the 28th. As always, check the Discord if you want more up-to-the-minute updates. I try not to spam-post too much, here.
I'm very much looking forward to getting this Season 1 alpha out. There's some cool little tweaks here and there, which I think really add an extra dimension to the player's relationship with Gabby, Madison, and Ashe. Plus, if you haven't played v0.27a, you're in for an extra 300+ images of content, including some sexy ero content with Brazilian hottie.. Beatriz!
This is way more clothes than she wears for the entirety of her appearance..

Speaking of v0.27a, I've updated the pinned post with the link to it -- something I should've done ages ago. While I was at it, I also added the PDF files (with art!) for two short stories: Glitter and Grit, featuring Isabella, and A Little Mad Part Two, featuring Madison. If you haven't read them yet, maybe check them out while you wait on the next release. 
I think that's about it, today. As always, take care of yourselves and thank you for your support!
