So, some days I put a bit of myself into what Jack has to say...
Honestly, it is a pretty big struggle. Marketing entertainment is already a pretty big fucking headache, but when you have to fight all of the various community rules about what you can and cannot do, something as simple as posting a screencapped vid...

We've been hard at work making flowers; here's a little sneak preview from a work-in-progress of the water lilies (one of the 6 different kinds we'll try to squeeze in for July). The flowers will be another example of getting to know the girls, and boosting your liking.
Each set of flowers can only be harvested so oft...
We're super proud to say that we're keeping to our (somewhat brutal) schedule of meaningful, large updates every month. This month is a particularly big and special update, with all kinds of new stuff:
I'm very proud of this, not because it happened, but because this is... pretty much how it usually goes around here. We may not offer t-shirts and mugs or a million "How I am feeling today" posts - but what we DO offer is "We're making a boatload of updates, and constantly fixing this game" - THAT is where your patreon $$ goe...

Just a quick update today.
For anyone wanting a little guidance around Tuvatuva Island, we made a walkthrough. We're still adding content to it - but it's open to anyone who wants to contribute.
You can find it here.
So - we were playing around with getting some new sex scenes put together... and I realized a bunch of our fans probably don't know how things actually get put together around here. And to be honest... it's pretty darn un-sexy making sexy things!
Anyway -for anyone curious - this is how we put together Cath's head...

The first "Big Monthly Early Access" update is out and seems to be relatively error-free. A few bugs, but overall it was a smooth and successful update. There were issues - but... that's life in game development. Everything has bugs - you just hunt them down, fix, and move on... If they all go as well, we'll be pretty pleased...

WOOHOO! It's been a month since we launched Paradise Lust on Early Access, and it's time for our first official Early Access Update. It's actually Update 6, if you count the monthly updates we did before Early Access... So half a year of Paradise Lust getting actively supported and updated.

So - we've just about locked down the content for our big monthly update - it's all in and we're testing it now. Lots of new things to see and do.
Some of what we've worked on last week includes:
Little stuff:
- Fixed issue where too many popups can be opened at a time.
- Fixed ...
We made good progress last wee - adding in a big huge scene with Cath with WAY more options than we probably needed. But it was an experiment, and we think it turned out pretty sexy. It also opens up the Cath storyline a good bit.
Additionally, we're making good progress on the "Relaxing" moments - you can now take a sh...

Ok - we're heads down working - not a lot to share other than "good stuff coming" - but we did make a few changes to the Patreon:
1) We're now offering 1-Year @15% off subs. Dunno if anyone is into that, but... well, there was a tick box and I ticked it. So there.
2) We are officially now offering Steam keys...

So - what’s new?
Obviously the “Big New Thing” is the launch into Early Access on Steam. How did that go? The short version: “It went pretty well.” Nobody is going to be retiring off the amount of money that we made there, but it is a really good start for an early access adult game, and we're pretty sure that...

So - we finally did it. We're up on Steam as an Early Access game. And so far the response has been very positive. We're not getting rich, but we've sold enough copies already to pay some of our bills, and let us breathe a bit easier about all the $ we've invested in this so far.
So what happens next? Well, to be...

The "Maria" thread is all about getting to know her desires and ambitions. She's an ambitious girl who will do what it takes to get to her dream: Bei...

This is probably our biggest 'monthly' build yet, with a lot of new systems coming in. You can now pick up the girls contact details while flirting with her, and once you hit 20 and 30 points of liking she will send you a sext on the new ingame mobile phone app.

One of the ideas we wanted to play with was the idea of collectibles; that sitting around the world there are hidden parts of posters or photos that tell you some of the back-story of the characters.
Maria, as the brand representative for Tres Pepinos Tequila, has a poster from her pin-up days. You'll find pieces...
We're a week behind schedule on this one, somewhat frustrating. Behind the scenes were doing a bunch of things to try to make the initial hour better, and more fun.
The big push is opening up the world, and giving the player control over the world faster. This isn't being implemented in 0.3.4, but over the next few wee...
We had some fun getting our page for Steam set up; the capsule art all used Cathy, and Steam kept bouncing it as 'adult', despite her being fully dressed in a tank-top and shorts. In protest, one of the team-members made this reaction GIF.
This build is mostly bug-fixes / streamlining quests and dialog from the beta-bu...
And we're ready with a Release Candidate (RC) for the next public build. Android is still work in progress; it's taking too much memory and affecting everything that's not a high-end flagship. I'll continue to tinker with it, see if I can't drop resource usage. The rest are up; fixed since last build are a lot of quests, bett...

You can always spot how troublesome a build has been by its naming convention. Some people just add a number, which is how you end up with Final.zip, Final1.zip, Final2.zip, Fuckthis.zip and Pleasepleasepleasebefinal.zip, followed by Pleasepleasepleasebefinal2.zip
In my case I prefer doing just a simple letter, so if a...
We've been busily beavering away at the game; lots of new rooms, new characters, new gameplay and some quite steamy scenes.
The plan is a closed beta the last Thursday or October, followed by a public release the first Thursday of November. The goal is to keep that cadence, a public build every month. If you're interest...

After a bit of work, it looks like the Android build is ready for testing. I had to spend a bit of time optimizing it and driving download sizes down, but in the end it looks and plays quite nicely. Let me know if you find anything going wrong!

One of the things we put a lot of effort into for Paradise Lust was the Puppeteering system; trying to give the various characters emotional range, and expanding on the VN story. I wanted to give you a quick look at our tools and processes for that.
As an aside; let me know if this kind of "behind the scenes" thing is ...
It's been a hectic week of bug-fixes, changes and running around in circles, but Public Beta is launching tonight, on time and on schedule (ish).
