Okay, so...I messed up a bit. I allotted the 'normal' amount of days for coding/writing this month as I have been for the last year or so. That proved to be a fairly large error, as the coding took an extra day to due to the complexity of getting the New Game+ cheat to work so that you lot don't have to play through all four ...

With the release of The Virtual Trap - Part 12 for the Royalty Tier folks, it's time for another previous Royalty-Exclusive to go out to the Upper Class followers! In this case, in a nice bit of symmetry, it's the previous issue of...

Whew. Sorry about taking longer than usual to make a progress report folks. I lost considerably more time to Easer Weekend than I'd expected to. And, just for good measure, allergy season has finally hit me like a brick to the face and I've been trying to cope with taking all the allergy meds and still not feeling gr...

Alright! Progress Report time!
Left Hand Magic
This is going more or less well? I think? Still feeling my way through it, but I'm mostly done with Week 1 of the Harem Route. I'm going to need to backtrack and make one or two extra renders so that the New Game+ doesn't have the exact same prologue ...
2025-04-16 22:50:58 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, I'd intended to have this up yesterday, but life events got in the way of my doing the vote weighing for the Short Story Poll. I just finished with that, so...poll results time!

I honestly didn't know what to expect with this choice, since I've never been quite ...

Alright! Just stopping in for a quick Progress Report, folks. Obviously, since none of the three polls are done yet (they finish tomorrow at midnight, make sure to vote if you haven't yet!), the only thing to talk about is Left Hand Magic.
I started the month by working through another three replacements for old-and-lo...
2025-04-09 22:54:28 +0000 UTC View PostAlright everyone, time for the last big push! Now that the six main routes of the game are down, I'm going to be putting together the New Game+ Harem Route I've promised from the start! Activating this route will require you to finish the four solo-girl routes (or input the cheat that I'm going to make sure is in place!) to g...
2025-04-05 09:48:36 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! Story poll time. Given that Dungeon Town: Armor Shop placed second last month, despite it being a Part 3, I decided to let it have one more pass before shifting it's description. You lot apparently really like that little sub-series, so I feel it's only fair to give it a parting chance. Also, ...

Alright! With Build 27 out for $5+ Patrons, it's time for Build 26 to go public! Notably, this is one of the last public releases of the game. The game isn't quite done yet, but the New Game+ Harem Route is something I've ...
2025-04-02 21:44:15 +0000 UTC View PostJust a quick note that the Android version of Build 27 is now up in the release post. I didn't truly fix the problem, so much as found a few places I could shrink files sizes enough to squeeze the size b...
2025-04-02 08:10:33 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! Still working on a solution for the Android build, but I wanted to get this out quickly, given that the Extra scenes actually do have unlock conditions that might be hard to figure out. Meaning the updates for the Guide are actually useful this time! Hurray!
As always, seek out the new content by searching *Ne...

Alright! The Build is here! A few quick notes first:
----------
1) Remember the amount of new content in this build is a bit smaller than normal, as I replaced eleven old animations with fixed/improved versions.
2) (No Longer Valid - Was rega...

Sorry this isn't the release post, folks! Don't worry that it isn't. Everything is pretty much on track for an on time rele...

2025-03-28 03:34:58 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! Managed to squeeze in the rest of the writing/editing for this in the last couple of days!
As for the result...it was an interesting experiment? In all honestly, I'm not unhappy with it, so much as making it truly random resulted in less spectacular effects than expected. The group of adventurers manag...

Alright! Getting a progress report out on the proper schedule for once! Let's dive right in, shall we?

Progress has been fairly decent here. Not spectacular, but decent. I've got two of the extra scenes completely rendered. Just one animation and a handful of stills for each, as th...

2025-03-12 19:14:18 +0000 UTC View PostWell, the polls will all close within 24 hours, but I figured I'd at least drop a simple report on how the various re-renders of animations are going. I've managed to redo 8 animations, with another one ongoing as I type this. There's one more that I mostly fixed, but it needs some small additional tweaks and the ren...
2025-03-11 00:16:25 +0000 UTC View PostOkay everyone! I mentioned in my Sitrep for March post that there was a poll to be had about some extra possible content for the main routes. Essentially, what it boils down to is the fact that the routes are...pretty linear ...
2025-03-04 01:24:56 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! Story poll time. Some changes to pay attention to in the descriptions! An App for That has been languishing for a while, as no one seemed interested in where it was going. As such, a time skip has been employed and the description changed to reflect that. In particular, pay attention to the Theme Update...
2025-03-04 01:08:04 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, it's been a while since I felt the need to do one of these, but March is going to be a little different from usual. As such, I figured I'd better put out a note on the subject before the polls (which will likely be up within a day, but still).
First, you all should be aware, since I've mentioned it fr...
2025-03-03 07:05:04 +0000 UTC View PostAlright! I wasn't too swift about getting on top of this, since frankly it really just added descriptions of the new stuff for completeness sake. It's literally impossible to reach the new content without already being locked into a route, so it's hardly a case of needing new instruction :-p. Still, the Guide has now been upd...

So...I...uh...made a partial liar out of myself? Much to my legitimate surprise, the fact I only got like 4.5 hours of sleep resulted in at least the PC/Linux/Mac versions being ready before midnight. Going to need to spend an hour or two on the android port, so right now it's in (Pending) status. But since the PC/Linux/Mac v...
2025-03-01 05:46:54 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, I warned everyone repeatedly this month that this was a possibility. I seriously doubt I'm going to pull off a release by midnight tonight. Though I think it will be a remarkably close thing. Close enough that I'm legitimately expecting to be able to do the release earlyish in the AM on the 1st. With pr...
