Hello, Meerkats!
Some big things are happening, and I want to be transparent with you, the fans.
So, I'll be moving to a new country in a month. There really isn't much time, and this happened very suddenly because of some personal life circumstances. It's exciting (not to mention slightly terrifying), bu...

Hello on a very special day, Meerkats!
Please appreciate the art, it cost a lot of money!
I can't even believe that it's been an entire year since I first shared A Mirror's Curse with t...

Hello Patreon Meerkats,
Most of the information is in the anniversary post, which will be up in a minute!
I worked very hard on this update and I hope you all like it.
Much love,

0.29 is the spectator route! I know most of you are cheerleaders, so I decided to add a button both at 0.28's End of Content AND the last passage before Ethan falls asleep. There, you can go back to play through the spectator route without restarting the game or anything. I hope this will help mo...

We got the homecoming game! This is the variant if you are a cheerleader. 0.29 will be the variant if you didn't join the cheer squad, and 0.30 will be the homecoming party. I decided to release this first for a few reasons.
First, I just wanted to get the update out before the end of the m...

Hello Meerkats!
As always, let's start with writing. It's going... alright. I've gotten 16.4k words done these past nine days. It isn't bad, but I do need to write more, especially considering I want to get this update out before this month ends. My health has been a mess, and my fatigue is bad on a lot of days...

Welcome to the end of the mall updates! I wanted to get this update out ASAP so we could finally get out of this mall and move the plot forward. I did a lot of work over past two weeks to get this update out for all of you guys.
My plan moving forward is to get the homecomi...

Hello Meerkats!
Writing has been going great! 0.27 is currently sitting at 37.6k words. I will admit that a decent chunk of that is copy and pasted from 0.26, as I'm getting real sick of writing the same stores over and over again. However, I did change it up enough and add enough original content that this route will b...

Six months ago, I posted this meme.
Honestly? It still feels true.
That update came in at 31.6k words of original content. This update is 58.3k words of yet another mall variant AND some rewr...

Let's start with the writing progress! I'm currently about 13.2k words into the next update! I'm starting to ramp up the amount of time I'm writing though, I got 4k written yesterday. I have not been a fan of how close I'm been to being late with the last two updates. I dont think it's far to Patrons or ...
2025-07-10 04:23:19 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
I barely made it in time, but a new update is all ready!
I know this is totally unexpected, but this update is, once again, the largest one so far. Yeah. I might've gotten a little caught up writing everything from scratch and including a lot of Lily content. I did not end up reusing much m...

Your favorite dev's life is kind of falling apart right now. I'm not going to get into it much, but I'm trying to move out ASAP due to a lot of problems in my household. This is while I'm still very ill.
But, fortunately (or unfortunately?), I'm a bit of a workaholic and love this ...

Your favorite TGTF game developer is in the hospital. As some of you may know already, my health isn't doing so well. I'm not going to get into details, but I will probably be in here for a few days and progress on the game will be going slower than it has been this past week.
And, I won't lie to y...
2025-06-05 18:32:29 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
May is almost over, but I managed to get an update out!
This update is the largest one so far, and it only encompasses one of four variants for the shopping update. Yeah. The full shopping update when it's done will be a doozy.
I'm hoping I can reuse some of the material, so I can fin...

Hello Meerkats!
Welcome to yet another progress update! First thing out of the way, I'm almost certain that I can get 0.24 out by the end of the month. The poll and my own whims have dictated that the update be split up into four parts. The first part of the shopping update, featuring Ethan going shopping with his mom, ...
2025-05-24 10:36:06 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
I'm realizing this update is going to be huge. Even bigger than I expected—and I already thought it was going to be massive. Let's start with a quick recap.
I was originally planning for one really large shopping update, letting you go with a character of your ch...
2025-05-22 15:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello Meerkats!
I'm going to begin this progress update by saying I am burnt the hell out. Making progress on the game has been very difficult to do, and sections that would've taken me a few minutes are taking me hours. It really is a pain to deal with, and I've been writing significantly less than usual. I hope you al...
2025-05-09 22:56:50 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
Kept you waiting, huh?
I did NOT expect this update to be done before May either, but a storm of things, including there being less work to do than I expected, made it so I was able to push this update ou...

First, I took a short break for the first time since Christmas! I'd been feeling rather burnt out, and I do have surgery coming up in less than 12 hours. I needed some time off, and now I'm feeling very energized to get back to work and get the next update out for all of you! It definitely won't be out i...
2025-04-24 15:50:07 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
This update is another big one! Not as big as 0.21's 51.5k words, but this update still comes in at a solid 41.7k words. It features the entirety of Day 16 and rewrites of Day 2 and Day 3. I ended up finishing a little sooner than expected, but I'm sure you all don't mind that. I'm hopin...

Again, I'm going to talk about the game's progress! I've been on a writing spree, and the update is already at 28.6k words! I don't think this means that this update will come out any sooner though. The update schedule will probably be closer to 3 weeks instead of 2. I've actually been writing more, but ...
2025-04-06 21:51:45 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
This update is over 50k words long, if you're wondering why it took so long. It features a rewrite of a significant portion of Day 2, the end of Day 14, and the entirety of Day 15! It's a really big update, and I hope you all enjoy it. I am sad to say though that the update cycle will get a littl...

You might be wondering why I always call you all Meerkats. Well, it sounds a lot like Mirror Cat, which ties into the title A Mirror's Curse. Plus, I know many of you love cats, so it felt like the perfect name for this community.
To celebrate our little mob, I wanted to do someth...

So, I'm going to start with the things I have to say, since I know most of you will scroll down, look at the art, and leave.
First, progress is going well! I currently have about 13.1k words for the next update. As you all might have been able to discern, I work a little slowly during the first wee...
2025-03-17 00:06:54 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patreon Meerkats,
First, I just wanted to apologize for the late update. I've been going through some stuff in life and with the amount of coding and UI changes that were done this update, things ended up taking a lot longer than I expected. I hope you all didn't mind too much!
I mentioned UI changes, right?...

I just had to make this progress update because I made a very stupid mistake.
As you may have noticed, the game has font options in the settings! One of those was for Open Dyslexic. Now, I don't know if anyone mentioned this to me before, but it turns out Open Dyslexic was not Open Dyslexic.

I'm going to show off some of the new QOL features for this game!

Way sooner than expected, huh? Yeah, I ended up writing a lot faster than I expected. Not to mention this update turned out to be smaller than I thought it would be.
Now, you might be worried by that second statement. But don't worry, this update is still very fucking big. It's larger than ...
