Update 1.19 is available on my Patreon page now! Some new things I'm trying out in this update, so time to get to it and see what's in there! The music is still... mostly there. I'd edited out a bunch of it, and I appreciate the support and messages I've gotten about it. I have some ideas that I'll be rolling with, so in the meantime, bare with me! ~Chester Day 11 - Here's where I added in some new stuff. You'll find a point where the game asks you to type in words. Your input will determine the kind of response you get, and there is a variety of things that can be typed in, so experiment a little. If you come across a word you think should be there, let me know! I asked a few people how they'd respond in that situation, and added in some interesting choices. I am setting up for some fun in his next couple of updates, and I'm really looking forward to working on that. This update ended up being a loooot longer for Chester than I meant for it to be also. It was supposed to be more filler for him, but I got a little carried away with it. ~Darius Day 4 - Some of you might be expecting someone other than Darius to get an update this time around, but people seemed to enjoy where he was going, so I decided to update him again. That, and he was an update behind Dozer even. You get to see a little more into Darius, but he's still holding on to that initial image he's set up for you. ~Andrew Sprite! We finally have Chester's brother added in this time around. I am aware of his design too~ ~Patron Sprite added! I also added in a Patron's sprite. I know that reward has been gone for a couple of months, but I've had a couple patron's sprites completed, and I've just been waiting for their spots to implement them. IMPORTANT INFO FOR NEW PATRONS
Keep in mind, if you find in crashes or bugs, let me know! If it crashes, try starting your file over (fresh start) and see if it crashes again at the same point. If so, snag a screenshot and send it my way! Or, copy the text and send me a message. That always helps me out, as I do miss things from time to time when checking for these errors. And so you don't have to read ALLLLL the text again, don't forget, you can go into Preference and set the Skip Text message to ALL. From there, just hold down CTRL to skip text faster. Thanks to all of my supporters and to all the new people (52 new people last month!?)! I reached a new Milestone this month, and that's a huge step forward. Once the end of the month rolls around, we'll see if that sticks of not. I'm feeling confident it's gonna stay that way. It means to much to me that I have this much support on the project! Thank you guys. Thank you so much!

Fan Art! I have debated on putting a section like this in the actual game itself, but I've decided to go ahead and put the fanart section on my blog instead. You can head over to the Extracurricular Activities page to check it out! It really floors me to see people draw fan art of my characters, and I'd like to share those images with everyone else to see! As for the game music, I'm most likely going to remove it completely. Several people have brought to my attention just how bad it is, so I think I'll end up taking most of it out and just try replacing it with ambient sounds, similar to what I have in the shower scenes. Straight up music doesn't seem to work as well as I wanted, so I have to take a different approach to it. And I'm working on something new to include in the next update! I wanted to try a couple of new mechanics, and I'll put implementing those in the next update I do. You guys should see that next week when I launch the update. In the meantime, check out that Fan Art page and see what some awesome artists have whipped up! Just a note.
Lastly, I'd like to address something that several people have questioned me on, and I find it to be a rather irksome thing. I've been asked, "Why is your visual novel not free?". This project isn't free to produce. It takes a lot of time not only from myself, but from my artist, CursedMarked. Honestly, I'd not be able to work on this project WITHOUT the support of the Patrons that back me. I don't have a job right now, and a lot of my time goes into producing this visual novel. The money I make from Patron goes to new art assets and keeping my bills paid. The final product will be free when it's done, but it will also have a version you can pay for for some extra content (and that version, all my Patrons will get free). I truly appreciate all the support I am getting, cause this is something I've wanted to do for a while, and I'm able to do so now because of you all. I'm actually working towards things I've wanted to do, but haven't been able to due to lack of time. My job gave me a reason to quit late last year, and with the approval and support of my boyfriend, I left it behind to pursue my own dreams. So yeah, this project wouldn't exist without funding, and I'd like the people that question why it's Patron funded to understand that. Anyway, thanks for all of you that do support me! It means the world to me to have such support, and I look forward to keep putting out more content for you all! |
