Well, it's a new month, so you know what that means - a new release. January's went out on time without a hitch as usual, so now we are progressing well with February's backer version. We are planning to make it available to backers on the last Thursday of the month, which this time falls on the 28th.

The main focus for this month is continuing the Rastedel plot line. I already have a chunk of Rastedel content from Winter that didn't quite make it in last month, and he will be writing some more, alongside working on Shayna's arc, and if he has time, pumping out some general events for the castle. Rein is currently working on something we have been planning for a while, a character that will help scratch the male-to-female TF itch, with some pretty bizarre transformations later on if Rowan commits the resources to his research. You can see his appearance sprite, already finished by Keidi this month, above, and our backers will be meeting him in the next release. I'm also hoping to have some new fae content from Phoenix as well.

On the art side, I have all the rough sketches now from MDN, and have been sharing these with the backers. He is currently working on turning two of them into full colour pieces, and the rest into line art, as we have recently discussed in the decision to move to 3 finished CGs and 6 line art ones. Sommy has finished 2 of his CGs, and is currently working on his last one (the fully rendered piece), as well as a new Rastedel background.

That is pretty much it for today. I am still looking to hire someone with Ren'Py / Python experience to help out with the more technical issues, but I have managed to figure out the throne room, and have made it so you can check the current goals there, as some people have been requesting. Hopefully I'll find someone soon, and then we can work on improving other gameplay aspects, but for now, we will continue as always.

An early happy Valentine's Day to you all, and if you have a sweetie, you might want to keep an eye out for large buff red men with tattoos paying them a visit. ;)

Okay...this is a huge task. It will take time, it will have bugs but this is the final act before 1.0.

I think this new update will take around 5/6 months, I don't want to haste myself. I want to do it my own way with the love for rpgs and hentai...without pressure.

I will do small updates but I must be honest, I don't want to spoil anything before the big content.

So about the support you give me as patrons :

I could move to the "monthly pledge" and I'm sure people would support this because I'm not new here.

Still...I'll keep the "per creation pledge" method to keep control of everything.

I will take pledges because I have to.

This project is time consuming and I must have some money for it to live.

So, I may be able to take a pledge per month BUT ONLY if I'm satisfied with what I am doing for the 0.4. You know I can be pretty rude with myself in term of quality.

I won't take more than once in a month though, do not worry.

I will keep you uppated about the progress and try to anwser you about any question...In a way, I will stay close to you.

I understand if you want to leave without significant content, you're free to leave anytime...but I'd love to see you by my side for the big thing because this could be a really great game in the end.

A first pledge post will be for 1st March.

I'll upload pretty soon the 0.3.5A version of the game. This will include the "Bonus version" from january.

Please, put a little "LIKE" for the big last step of the game, I'll need it !

Hi all!
It's been more than a week since my last report, so it's about time I filled you in on what's been going on.
When it comes to image creation/rendering the news isn't as good as hoped. The scene with Vicoria is really giving me a headache. It'll end up with way more images than planned and each image is taking forever to create, since more characters means a lot more work. So I'm still working on that one. When that's done I have one last scene to make, plus some more cutscene images.
On the map/gameplay front, I've also messed things up for myself:-/. Looking at the map sections surrounding the Goblin Forest, I found it had become a bit of an eyesore. It was the oldest remaining map in the game and the graphics were no longer up to par with the maps surrounding it. So I decided it had to go. I updated the graphics and removed all the random goblins popping up out of nowhere.
Now each goblin will be visible on the map, just like other creatures. Worry not, I've thought of you ear-farming types! Each goblin sprite that's visible on the map, represents an encounter of up to three goblins. The actual size of the encounter is randomly determined and based on the player's level. Low level characters will only have encounters with single goblins, whilst the chance of facing more goblins increases at higher levels. This is because lvl 4 players, or below, would likely get butchered if they met 2, or 3 goblins at once. Whilst higher level characters would probably prefer to farm as many ears as possible per encounter.
Of course, once I got going, I thought I might as well change the pop up encounters on all the other maps as well. So for the sake of conformity, all creatures on all outdoor maps are now represented by visible sprites. Some indoor maps still have random pop-up encounters, but I'll wait until another update to change that.
Alas, this has set me back a few days, but the scripting for quests has been proceeding well, so I'm still hopeful of finishing my draft by next weekend. And if the remaining scene goes well, I'm still in with a shot of releasing by the 21st.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend folks!

Howdy! Just a quick progress report, nothing major.

Our attention is now completely on the New You transformation event, I’ve assumed it would be ready by now, but there’s been a slight change of plans due to the fact that I couldn’t work on the weekends.

I’ve spent too much time on redrawing existing art (mostly character art, but still) and now, the 5th is here and actual new art for the event is unfinished. This event was meant to be included right before the very end of the New You questline, but it will be available now because of how requested it was. We’re trying to make it interesting as well as entertaining, since in some way it’s a farewell for old Kira, it will have walking, talking, choices and changes both mental and physical, as well as new and updated art.

I want to be as honest as I can with you, and I've never wanted to be known for delays, but I kind of am now. I assure you I am aware of this problem of mine, and I hope it will be fixed along with the March “complete rework” update, since in March our development cycle should become less chaotic and more controllable with every event working under one system.

That said, the update will be out by the end of this week, I’ll upload it as soon as I’ll finish new art. Right after it will be up and running, we’ll immediately return to our rework starting with Legion’s event, so I’m pretty sure that you’ll get two updates this month and I won’t ruin our “once a month, at the end of the month” schedule with this unfortunate delay.

Thank you all for your support and your patience!

I’m making this post public, in case some of you have experienced issues with patreon this month, it appears they have some problems with their processing:

“Hey creators,

As some of you know, our payments have been running slower than normal. Normally payments take roughly 24 hours to run, but this time payments are on track to require 5-6 days...” - Patreon (part of their message).

it’s been a while. We are currently extremely busy with the rework, I’m redrawing existing art to be precise and I’ve been drawing, testing and planning together with Moana this whole month, it’s not as fun as creating new quests or events, but in the end I believe it’s necessary for us to proceed with the story.

Above you can see current final version of Kira’s new character art. With how our new system is made, if we’ll ever decide to redraw her again, I’ll be able to change her artwork without redrawing every single outfit.

I’ll make a post about the next update in a day or two (definitely before Thursday), I think new update will be out somewhere around the 5th of February.

I still intend to conduct polls to determine the absolute worst/best scenario for Kira’s appearance, since we do need this information.

Then I’ll create a picture for our “roadmap”, because it doesn’t look nice just in text, and I will showcase and explain this new backend system in both pictures and text.

I probably should have posted all of that gradually over the month, but I was too busy with the artwork and frankly had nothing to show, since it all was “half-done”.

Once again, thank you for your support and patience, especially this time.

Hello, dear Patrons!

Another quick weekly update of the progress of the next release.

At the moment I'm working on scenes that will change the story a lot. Choices in these scenes will make a huge impact on the future of Anna on different paths. I'm very thrilled to work on this update as it brings further and evolves the story. I don't want to spoil too much, but everyone will have their go, whether you are a fan of one character or another. It makes things a bit more complex, but so far it looks I can manage.

Don't worry that I might be talking too much about the story as there will still be enough of naughty content to enjoy in this update too. I just want to make it more credible and interesting.

So far everything is going as planned and I still plan on releasing on the first half of February.

Wallpapers for elite patrons are coming in a couple of days. You'll love them :)

Again, thank you for your amazing support and if you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to contact me through any channel available.

Sincerely yours,

Deep

I meant to get this post up yesterday but

I was unable due to my computer being in pieces.

No, it's not broken, I've just replaced my 8 year old cpu (i5 2500k) with a Threadripper 1920x. The i5 2500k has to be one the the best cpus of all time but it's really showing it's age. When rendering on just the gpus only the cpu would also be almost maxed out. If I tried to use the cpu to help render also it would actually slow the gpus down causing the render to take longer.

The TR 1920x is at a really good price too, almost half the price of the 2920x but maybe only 5% less performance. It actually seems to be able to render in iray at about half the speed of my gtx 1070 which I did not expect. I wasn't really planning to have it help with rendering, I just wanted to be able to use the computer more while rendering in the background, so that's a bonus.

Anyway, not much else to say. There was a poll for a new guest character that will appear next update. After it ended I opened the post up so everyone could take a look. I didn't mention what body I chose, but as you can maybe now see, I went for the more "full" figure. I couldn't help myself.

I've not settled on the name for this character yet so any suggestions are welcome.

So here are some just for fun 4k renders of her.
