Dev Log #5 - Happy New Year! A quick revision for the Prologue (Beta), some stats and a special render remade.

Added 2026-01-02 01:17:07 +0000 UTC

Hello there, Lucyfar here. I wanna wish a happy new year to all of you, 2026 is going to be a special year!

I remade an old promotional render of Prime Girl and did a quick revision fixing hundreds of typos and grammar mistakes for the prologue build. I was already preparing and doing pre-production stuff for Episode 1 before the new year but now that holidays and celebrations are over (and after lots of alcohol too) I'm locking the fuck in! My plans are to release Episode 1 on April but depending on how smoothly things go I can release it even sooner, I want to double (maybe even triple) the amount of content from Prologue to Episode 1 so I'm very excited.

Now, I wanted to share some stats that I should've shared before but I forgot (I was too focused on the beta build sorry), including the revision I'm releasing today. The funny thing is that the first build I released to the public is actually the first revision I did, so it was like releasing the game with a Day 1 hotfix or something. The actual first version didn't had the eyecatch images and stings in some scene transitions, the volume of some SFX were really high (and some really low), there were even more typos and grammar mistakes and etc...

Here's the changelogs of all builds with some comments:

Prologue (beta)

(This one was only played by me and some close friends.)

522+ renders.
8.397 words.
2.164 lines of codes.
77 sound effects.
22 songs.
6 ambience audio.

Prologue (beta) - Rev1

(Dev note: This one was the first public build released on December 11.)

Added 4 eyecatch images for scene transitions with 4 sting new songs.
(Dev note: Eyecatch are those special renders with the game's logo and stings are short songs that accompany them, both are used for scene transitions, I think it's cool.)
Couple of small typos and grammar mistakes fixed and some phrases changed for better reading and scene flow.
Game icon and executable fixed for PC and Mac.

Prologue (beta) - Rev2

Released today (January 1, 2026)

120+ typos and grammar mistakes fixed.
(Dev note: Thank you everyone who reported typos and other grammar errors. I kinda let the grammar from my native language bleed into my english and didn't notice a lot of stuff.)
Changed 2 placeholder eyecatch images (Green Witch and Prime Girl) from scene transitions.
(Dev note: Green Witch's one only had a monocolor background, it was a test image I had made to showcase her design and Prime Girl's one I changed because it was too random and on the nose popping her juicy ass out of nowhere after that scene kinda broke the vibe, that special render is free to everyone so don't worry, I probably can't post it publicly on Patreon because it's a little NSFW but it's available on the Discord server to everyone).
Updated 2 eyecatch images (Red Hot and Sara) from scene transitions.
(Dev note: I literally just changed the logo size, position and opacity to keep the format for all eyecatch the same and changed the smoke from Sara's coffee on Photoshop for a better one lol).

All in all, this revision was 98% focused on fixing grammar errors and typos. From now on I'm focusing exclusively on Episode 1, unless there's a grotesque error that needs to be fixed in the Prologue, the next release will be S01E01 aka the official game release. I hope you guys are excited as I am for it, because it's going to be INSANE!

Again, thank you for everyone that played the prologue beta, I'm loving reading all your feedback and at the end of the day I'm just a guy trying to put smiles on people's face, see you soon!

Lucyfar.

PS: The NSFW version of that special render is being posted tomorrow for patrons. Thank you for your support!

PS2: I wanna thank our first Founder! I don't know if they wanna have their name shared so I won't say it, but thank you from the bottom of my heart ♥
