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.
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!
