Hi, folks! I didn't find much time to post here these last days because I'm a fully focused on the work in the first demo release. In this first release you will know the main characters, meet the first girl and some quick hot content. The intro scene is done and now I'm working on the first point and click "mission".

2018-07-28 03:58:25 +0000 UTC View PostHi folks! I already sent the first files for text revision, which means that the development cycle is fully active again! I managed to setup a very simple translation system that won't get much in the way of the default game language. It'll make revisions easier and will enable a very simple way to create dialog patches or mods....
2018-07-19 20:12:50 +0000 UTC View PostHi folks! The project is officially starting! I already did some initial cleanup of my old framework code, making it less bug prone and enabling it to receive some new planned features like:
Yep... This place... Does it ring any bells?

After many helpful opinions, I'm finally starting to set up the new project. The first task is a quick refactoring of my VN eng...

Hi, folks! I've been making tests with some lookalike characters during the last couple of days. Sometimes they look fine, but I feel they might be a little uncanny. I don't know what to think... Is it worth to keep working on them (some of these use ancient figure models) or I should I go for my custom faces?
I've been ...
2018-07-03 15:52:31 +0000 UTC View PostHi, folks! The poll was somewhat balanced. A fair amount liked the idea of a sandboxed game, but I'm still struggling to make my mind about the shape of the new project. My fingers are itching to start working in a release again, but this is a critical moment when the most serious mistakes of a project can be made.
I've been t...
2018-06-30 01:55:51 +0000 UTC View PostHi, folks! When Hack'n Stalk 2.0 started, I didn't know if I would start another project right after finishing it. But, hey... A fair amount of people started enjoying and supporting the development of the game and my response was always keep working on more and quicker releases. So... Let's not stop now (I still dream tha...
2018-06-27 20:56:24 +0000 UTC View PostHi, folks ! If you are a storytelling geek then you probably know how stories are built around tropes. I love tvtropes.org, and used to spend hours browsing that wiki.
So... Can you identify which Hack'n Stalk 2 characters fit the 2018-06-25 12:45:50 +0000 UTC View Post

Hi folks! Here's my first try of a final version: HnS2 v1.0 ! In this first "non-development" version I worked on A LOT of known bugs and added the Ending Editor.
You'll need to load a save and run the ending sequence once to unlock this new feature of the gallery....
2018-06-21 22:21:00 +0000 UTC View PostHi, folks! I hope you liked the outcomes of our characters at Riverside! I'm already working on the next version. A "v1.0" means that the game can finally be tagged as "complete". Of course, we can still have a v1.0.1 if further serious bugs are reported.
I have a list of smaller known bugs to be fixed in this version an...
2018-06-18 16:10:08 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the updated game guide with details about the last scenes and the endings.
Notice this is not a full walkthrough, but I think it has enough instructions to guide you through the kind of playthrough you may want to do.

Here it is, folks! After a lot of work, you'll finally be able to know how your choices will change the fate of Riverside characters!
There are two new hot scenes in this version, one of them is a little tricky to fully unlock (but totally worth to chase). The updated guide will be released soon, but if you are curious ask in ...
2018-06-12 22:23:59 +0000 UTC View PostHi, folks! The end is nigh! The last dialog lines were written and now only the custom artwork for the ending sequence(s) are remaining!
I also made some score balancing in several scenes of the game. With this I hope there are no ending outcomes requiring a "perfect" playthrough.
However there's also some not so g...

In this post I'll let you choose the format of next releases. On Developer Diary #11 I listed the remaining items on the project roadmap. Now check out the release options I have in mind.
Hi folks! I'm still thinking about how to split the remaining content in next versions. I'll post a poll later to know what do you think of my options. For now, I'll start posting a roadmap with all remaining content to be done. It's a little vague in the descriptions to avoid spoilers!

In HnS1 there are 4 completely distinct endings, each one with its own fixed sequence of events. It also features the idea of a 'good' and a 'bad' ending.
For HnS2 my idea is to make ...
