Left Hand Magic - Build 23 Guide

Not a lot to say here, folks. Just an update to the guide! Honestly, since most content is locked in this late in the story, it's really just a way of keeping track of the new scenes each build. Along with the cheat codes, of course. As always, it's attached as a PDF. Search *New to find the new scenes.

Left Hand Magic (Build 22) - Public Release!

Whew! Time for another release! Build 23 was released for Patrons early this morning/late last night. Which, of course, means that it's also time for Build 22 to go public!

Build 22 completes Trix's weekdays for Week 6 and m...

Left Hand Magic (Build 23) - Patron Release

Edit: Android version now up as well. 

Whew! I mostly made it! Only mostly, I'm afraid, as those who check this right after I first post it will discover that the android release isn't quite ready yet. I wanted to get the PC/Mac release out actually on time, since it...

Dungeon Town - HealSlut

Whew! Managed to squeeze the writing and editing for this in between programming and writing bits for the Left Hand Magic release. By-the-by, I think the Left Hand Magic release will be out on time tomorrow night. If it isn't, unless some catastrophe occurs, I believe it won't be delayed longer than early morning on ...

Cara Loft 5 - Upper Class Release

Oops! Got distracted after releasing The Virtual Trap (Part 10) for Royalty Tier folks. I meant to do this release right afterward, but it slipped out of my mind!

Getting back to it now, size wise this is a fairly typical r...

Progress Report

Progress report time! I technically should have done it yesterday, but I wanted to wrap up a few things so I had more complete information to report.

Left Hand Magic

So, rendering is done at this point. I decided to cut off at doing just the first two Weekend 6 events (Arianna + Rev/Trix/MC) in li...

Progress Report

So, this time it's not my fault! I was going to put this up a day ago, on the typical 4-day cycle I shoot for, but Patreon itself was outright down -_-. No warning or explanation for the outage, either. Typical...

Left Hand Magic

As you should be able to guess from the images for the post, I've mo...

Progress Report

Alright! Time to get another progress report out there.

Left Hand Magic

So far, so good. As I type this, the final animation for Revina's Weekdays is rendering, though it won't be done until much later today. Rendering time for animations tends to be 10-12 hours. Still, that means that all three d...

Poll Results!

Polls are in and tabulated! Time for some results!

Left Hand Magic - November Focus Poll

First and foremost, our monthly focus poll.

-----

Ariana's Route: 32%

Trix/Revina Threesome Route: 25%

Trix's Route: 21%

Revina's Route: 11%

Talia's Route: ...

Progress Report

Well, the polls don't end until tomorrow night. But I have, of course, not been idle :-). Because I had the best idea what I was doing with it, I actually started with Day 5 of Revina's Week 6 content, which means the party-preparations just like the other five routes. You can see a sneak peak of their dresses in the images, ...

November Focus Poll!

Last, but certainly not least, in the focus poll for this month! Obviously, the first thing I will be working on this month is the remaining three days of Revina's Week 6. However, after that, I'm hoping to get at least two routes worth of the Party Event that will be Weekend 6. I'm honestly not sure exactly how many...

November - Short Story Poll

Behold! Tis the next round of polls! As should be obvious since it won last month, the descriptor for Dungeon Town has shifted again. Likewise, I've resumed rotating in some old story concepts, so be on the lookout for Transformation Estate. Alyia and the Magic shop, on the other hand, has been temporarily withdrawn from the ...

Left Hand Magic - Updated Guide (Build 22)

Yikes! Almost forgot I needed to do this! Mind you, mostly that's because content past Event 5 is mostly on rails. Only Arianna's relationship has any oddities after things get locked in. That said, the guide still serves as a way to find all the new stuff in a build, since anything new to this build is labeled as *N...

Left Hand Magic - Build 21 - Public Release

With the release of Build 22 for Patrons, it's also time to release Build 21 for the public! Build 21 was quite a nicely sized one! Only five new days of content...but due to providing a major variant for one of those, there's...

Left Hand Magic - Build 22

Whew! After a bit of a loooonng month, all told, I'm pleased to get this out entirely on time! Even better, as I mentioned in the last Progress Report, I actually managed a bit of an overhaul to the very first two animations in the game. Truth be told, I'm still not happy with them and there's a chance I'll try to re...

Progress Report

One last progress report for the month before release. Thankfully, it's all good news. As you can see from the attached images, I did get the Chastity scene worked into Revina's content, though the Pony Scene that actually won the poll will be in the next build (as I warned it might). In addition, I had enough extra ...

The Virtual Trap (Part 9) - Upper Class Release

With the release of The Halloween Special - The Party Trope, for Royalty Tier patrons, its also time for a previous Royalty-exclusive to filter down to the Upper Class tier. In this case, the release due to filter down is the lates...

Old Rewards Archive Updated!

With the release of October's Short Story for $3+ patrons, a previous exclusive is now available it the Archive for All Patrons. Actually, in this case, since the chaos of the last couple of months apparently caused me to lose trac...

Dungeon Town: What is Halloween?

Whew! I managed to sneak in enough time to get the short story done! Better yet, despite needing to make some changes to the original plan, I think it came out extremely good. It was fairly entertaining to write, as well, as the Dungeon Town series usually is. It's setting allows me to explore some more usually concepts or co...

Progress Report

Whew! Pretty much entirely good news this time, folks, so I'll just dive right in.

Left Hand Magic

As of right now, I have the second-to-last animation for the build rendering. I should be able to complete the last animation, plus the handful of remaining stills, tomorrow. Which will leave me in p...

Progress Report

Sorry for being silent so long, folks! As you likely expected (or honestly should have, at least), I left for my short vacation the morning after I posted the poll results. I only got back late on the 15th, and I wanted a couple of days back with my nose to the grindstone before I said anything, so that I'd have a better idea...

October Poll Results + Quick Progress Report

Alright! Actually going to do the quick progress report first. Sorry I haven't been posting updates, by the by, but I've basically had my nose stuck firmly to the grindstone to get as much done as physically possible before my short vacation. That, thankfully, has gone well, as I have 2 of the Trix route days completely rende...

October Focus Poll

Alright, so...we're in a bit of an odd place on this one. There's only one untouched route left, so logically once I finish with the remaining Trix content, I need to move on and work on Revina. As such, this particular focus poll actually isn't going to touch on this month, directly. Instead, it's going to give some options ...

October Short Story Poll

Poll time! The Dungeon Town entry has changed again! This time with a possible Halloween theme for the story. Due to time constraints this month, I've opted not to make an 'old story revival' an option this time, as those take a bit more invovlement on my part as I revisit their old material before making new stuff!

Sitrep for October

Alright everyone, I haven't felt the need to do one of these in a few months. In this case, however, it's called for. Specifically, because I'm going to be gone (visiting family) for 4 days this month. I've skipped too many such events to get out of this one without a lot of grumbling (and I honestly want to see a few of the ...

September's Short Story

A bit late, I know, sorry! Technically, it was pretty much done yesterday, but I held off since I'd already bombarded everyone with other posts. And it would have been at least a day(ish) late regardless. Anyway, the story is at least pretty sizable for a short, being a solid 6,000 words. I'm not sure how I did with ...

Left Hand Magic - Build 20 - Public Release

Alright! With the release of Left Hand Magic Build 21 for Patrons, it's also time to release Build 20 for the public! I am quite happy to say that we've returned to a normal build size with this release. There's nine new anima...

Left Hand Magic - Route Guide/Cheats

At this point, the Route Guide is mostly just listing out new scenes ;-). Though it still remains helpful for the early game, and as a reference for the Cheats, of course! Anyway, the updated guide for Build 21 is attached as a PDF. Searching *New (asterisk included) within the PDF will lead to the new scenes, as always!

Left Hand Magic (Build 21)

Ugh. Almost made it. But only almost. Between an unusually high number of bugs, then discovering by sheer accident that I'd apparently skipped the webp compression phase for the previous build, I ended up running a couple hours over the official deadline. A note about that second thing, by the b...
