Hey guys,

Happy new year everyone, I hope you all rested and celebrated! Just letting you know that reward folders are now updated (along with potentially my new favourite sketch!). Also the sneak peeks are a little light this month due to Crot taking some time off for Christmas and also Mrs Jennings new clothing was part of the same batch ^^

Also I've updated the roadmap for this year to give you an idea of all the exciting things to look forward to!

As you can see our plan is to continue on with finishing off character's main progressions and the main story. Afterwards we move over to our first subscriber voted content from a list of things such as threesomes, outfits, scenarios, etc. (More on this later in the year when it becomes relevant) 

In the spirit of giving for this time of year I've decided to release all the sketches that were finished from the previous year (2024) for everyone to enjoy! I'm doing this now before the hectic holiday season really kicks off as a thanks to all supporters of the project. Without you all we wouldn't have had such amazing progress of the game and it's been really great to see it really start to come to life. This time neat year it's very likely all the final progressions will have been completed and the main story too and we'll be adding in some BRAND NEW content! Exciting! 

You can check out the sketches from 2024 here.

Also here are some of my favourites from this year: 

What was your favourites from 2025, Princes and Kings? ^^

I hope you all have a wonderful holidays, but you'll hear from again before the years out with the 0.9 release!

Hey guys,

If you were pledged in September / October, please check the mega folder I sent to you in messages. You'll find 0.8.2 is now delivered in that folder! Enjoy!

Hey guys,

Just back with another quick announcement about 0.8.2. Unfortunately the update will be delivered next week. I've been trying to work on this as much as possible in my spare time while also working on my other projects. With the amount I have left to complete it doesn't seem likely I'll have this done by Wednesday, and I am away from Thursday to Sunday this week.

The aim is to have this released by the end of the month at the very latest. I'm very sorry about this and I appreciate the patience you guys have shown in waiting for Sydney to have her final progression complete.

In terms of release, same procedure 0.8.1, if you pledged last month the release will be available in the same mega folder that was sent to you in messages. And if you are pledged this month there will be the usual post, so you won't miss it.

Just note this shouldn't effect 0.9's release, since work wasn't scheduled to be started on that until November, so 0.9 will be released before the end of the year marking our 6th and final release of the year! (Technically 7th due to the Donna & Dizzy split into separate releases, but we'll ignore that)

Still can't quite believe we are getting to this content already after only just over a year since the 0.1 release. It's very exciting and I look forward to bringing you the other final progressions as well as the main story finale over the course of next year!

Thank you all for the support you have given, and I really hope you are enjoying how the project is shaping up and progressing!

Hey guys,

Just giving a quick update to temper expectations with 0.8.2. It is highly likely the build will be pushed into next week given how much time 0.8.1 took me. I will try my best and work hard to have it done as soon as possible, but given the reality of the situation it seems unlikely this will be achievable. I'll keep you posted on the situation towards the end of the week.

Hey guys,

I wanted to give you an update on things and about what is going on at the moment with the build. It has been a debate for a while as to whether or not bring this up, but unfortunately I think things have been pushed far enough that I can no longer not explain the situation.

What's going on?

For September and the 0.8 build I had hired a writer (the same one I had hired previously to do a few bits of work on the project with extended scenes and such). I did this so I could do some additional work on my other projects while making sure that UD would progress at its normal rate. They would be handling a large chunk of the Mom & Sydney progression dialogue and I would edit what was necessary and add in any extra bits I felt was needed after the fact, while also being able to make any coding changes / bug fixes needed in time for the end of September.

Unfortunately, the writer hasn't delivered on what was tasked. A few bits have been completed, but nothing to the extent I was expecting and it seems like I can expect nothing more in the short term either. Although I had hoped things would be delivered perhaps a little late at worst (a couple days / week at most) it has become apparent that is not the case.

It's not my policy to discuss the private matters of people I work with so I won't be going into details in that regard. But be assured I won't be working with them again. I am not trying to shift the blame, the onus for the delay of this build is completely on me. After all I choose who I work with and I decided to work with someone who turned out to not be as reliable as hoped.

Again, I can only apologise for this and the delay this has caused to 0.8.

How do we fix this?

I'll be taking over the writing for this build, and it's going to be my full focus going forward until its complete. The necessary coding changes for a new feature (text messages) has been complete as well as the main bug fixes, so fortunately it's just the dialogue to go.

Although I am still keen to not give ETAs on builds, I think in this instance because things are quite out of the norm I will make an exception. My current plan is deliver 0.8.1 towards the end of next week that will have Mom's full final progression, and then 0.8.2 the week after for Sydney's full final progression.

It feels like the best solution I can offer at the moment and I apologise it isn't more a lot sooner.

The people that pledged last month will gain access to both 0.8.1 & 0.8.2 and they will be placed inside the folder you would have received via SS message.

The extra scenes for Donna & Dizzy will unfortunately have to be put on hold for now, but hopefully will make it in for 0.9!

My apologies

I can only offer my most sincere and full apologies for this delay. As I said before, I take full responsibility for the delay that has occurred with this build, but I hope this post can at least be of a small assurance that progress is being made in the correct direction, with the intention to fix this as quickly as possible.

I still believe our goal of getting 6 builds out this year will be achieved, as 0.9 is on the horizon for November featuring two fan favourites, Mrs Jennings & Mrs Amos. 

To alleviate any concerns there, I will be handling the writing for 0.9, so things should (hopefully) go smoothly. 

If you have any further questions please feel free to ask here or in the discord server. But for now I'll be typing away getting this build complete!
