As you've probably seen before, by the time we hit update number two for a build, we're pretty far along in the development cycle. There's a playable alpha that doesn't have any of the audio coded into it and we're still adding in relationship flags as we test and rewrite the script. All of the principle photography and anima...

Since it's the Spooky Season again, October 2022's Patron-exclusive Wallpapers are gonna be Halloween themed. You see, in America, we like to extend holiday celebrations for as long as humanly possible. Christmas? Like 2-3 months. Halloween? All of October plus some. Thanksgiving? It gets some build up but it's mostly one day...

Here we are, already deep in the development of 0.07.0. I always like to joke that we jump right back in after the last release came out, but this time, we didn't even wait that long. Two of the scenes were already partially done ahead of time. In fact, I have another four sitting in storage until we hit the specific points i...

Well, hell, where does the time go? With the way the schedule's been as of late, getting 0.06.0 ready for release has kind of snuck up on us. There's a lot packed into this release, including a potential Bad End for Roe (if you were unlucky) and a trio of interludes for Mina depending on how you ended the last update with her...

Now with the three-day weekend over (Labor Day in the States), it's back to work. Not like we didn't squeeze in some work during the time off from our paying jobs, if we're being honest. For 0.06.0, there's already a playable alpha build that's going through some passes to polish it up. There are some lengthier moments here a...

I'd say that we're starting development of the next release, but really, we've been doing that for a while now. Probably since the last build was uploaded. Hell, some of these scenes were already in an alpha state even before that (because some of the more involved sequences really need to be worked on ahead of time so as not...

Here we are, with the latest release of The Interim Domain on it's way. By now, the development part (integrating the scenes into the main architecture of the game's code) of each build is fairly streamlined. In fact, because of a lot of up-front work, we've already got portions of content for the next three releases created ...

By now, we're looking at a fully-functioning alpha of 0.05.0. Most of the next week or so will be spent filling in transitions between scenes and polishing up the script and code.
While the main story is starting to reveal increasingly more of the players and their motivations, the side-stories promise to ramp up in ter...

And with very little down time, we're fully onto the development of 0.05.0. In fact, we have bits and pieces of the first 60 percent of the build already in a semi-functioning state (no music, missing transitions to the next major scene, etc.).
I did want to bring up something that came up in the wake of the last ...

And here we are with 0.04.0 ready to go. In fact, it's been in a test state for a while now. Cleaning up the back-end code made it a lot easier to just focus on producing story content. Of course, there's still some GUI stuff to do, like the Gallery, even if it's just for one scene. If the plan for the next few releases holds...

Not a lot to say about 0.04.0 except that it's fully in development and a lot further along that I would have figured. In fact, there's a functioning Beta right now that involves most of the content (minus a few transition scenes). Locking down the code in 0.03.0 really smoothed the development cycle. Because of this, we're a...

All right! 0.04.0 is formally underway, and by underway I mean that a fair bit of it has been built in a semi-functioning state. With the code for the delivery of sidestory content largely locked in, getting back to just producing new story content got a bit easier. Plus, generating new builds right now doesn't eat up so much...
