September/October Dev Log: The Incite Development*

Hey all, This is the scripter, I'm sorry for long-overdue update.

My new apartment is surrounded by osmanthus trees.

They’re in full bloom from the Mid-Autumn Festival to the Double Ninth Festival, their scent filling the air.

The aroma peaks around 2 a.m., just when I return home, tempting my cravings.

I succumb to late-night tea and snacks, sinking into the dreadful bliss sugar and fat bring.

Swept away by autumn's appetite, let me tell you...

Oh wait...Well, well, I used similar words last year.

I got caught up with life and totally forgot the Sept dev log in 2023, only realized when someone pointed it out.

As October ends, I figured I'd just roll both months into one update.

About Game:

I’m currently working on Chapter 3’s “Blue route“, which is the "Cop route". 10% done, aiming to finish within 3 months (hopefully before year's end :x).

I’m pouring all I’ve got into the plot, dialogue, and performance—particularly our hunky Cop.

Unlike "Prince," Cop is a character with, um, a rich set of motivations.

He has something—or someone—to protect.

An epic hero, perhaps, willing to carry any burden for his cause.

Seeing him suffer while dutifully carrying out orders that literally chip away at his personality, all with an innocent face, makes me wet ironically.

While it's a popular kink, giving it away too easily lacks flavor. So, I've spiced things up by adding a layer of "scheming" to the mix.

Just like "majestic" is a prerequisite for a "hero's" downfall, Cop needs some extra dashing labels too.

A buff guy full of schemes—meaning, the so-called innocent might just be a front, and the suffering could be nothing more than a ruse.

The brazenly nude might just be a smokescreen for some hidden truth. And the fiancée that "Prince" mentions? Probably not just idle chatter.

With a body honed through sheer willpower, he's never been subjected to this or that kind of torment. His dignity and private parts aren't like dough, free for anyone to knead at will.

The fruits of sweat and effort would never mix with the waste fluids trickling down below the navel, aimlessly splattering on the room's floor, left to rot, right? 

Right?

In the Red route, the "Prince" who seems to understand Cop might actually be lying on purpose, or perhaps they're in a partnership of some sort.

In the Blue route, the Qianbei who understands Cop's true nature shoots himself in the head once for the entertainment, and second time just to make a point.

Just like the intricate and unsettling interpersonal relationships depicted by Master Honobu Yonezawa in "Inshite Miru" it leaves one deeply uneasy.

Why does Cop demean himself for the sake of calculation? What's driving him to do so?

Since it's not yet the moment to reveal all the cards, I can't spell everything out. But I'm really looking forward to showing the answer to this question in the game! I'll do my best to present it in a way that's both logical and entertaining!

↑This will appear in one of the CGs for Chapter 3's blue route↑

As for the merch:

By mid-month, our merchandise should be ready for sale. However, we currently can't ship to areas outside of China, and we're still looking for a low-cost method.

Not very unique, but we put thought into the designs.

Big thanks to the artists—exquisite work!

Here’s the list:

• We're together Mousepad

• Two T-shirts (Bluey but DxB, DxB Band)

• Canned Keychains (DxB Band 5-piece set with canned packaging)

• Cop’s Underwear (made it after much hesitation)

And some previous, limited merch:

• Qianbei's table standee

• Sang Towel

↑Sang Everything Everywhere All at Once lol↑

Finally, about progress:

Recent output has been really low, and the quality of the writing isn't up to par either.

Having to remove the "some controversial and risky content" parts has thrown my train of thought off track. 

But this isn't entirely related to my writing efficiency, so it's just whiny. 

It's as nauseating as someone stirring their finger in my cup of coffee. 

A messed-up game, really.

After asking a treester (the tree become a monster boy), the only way to get rid of this sense of frustration is to buckle down and write.

At times like this, what's needed is determination, just like Cop when he's working out.

Despite my fondness for muscular men, I find myself lacking when faced with the determination they possess. Only sweets and caffeine can truly mend my soul.

The osmanthus fades early, its fragrance gone, leaving only unwanted fat that I don't know how to deal with. 

Looks like I'm going to gain weight again.

九/十月开发报告：被煽动的开发*

大家好，这里是更新迟到的脚本儿。

新迁的公寓附近种满了桂花。

植株宽大，花黄茂繁，自中秋起绽放至重阳，怒香满盈。

其郁馥于凌晨2点时最盛，恰巧被脚本儿晚归时赶上，惨遭胃口大开。

大喝晚茶，大啖夜宵，一不小心就沉沦在糖与油脂带来的可怕幸福感之中。

在秋之食欲的裹挟之下……

……好家伙好家伙。

写到这里突然发现，自己在去年的报告中也用过类似的词。

由于最近杂事缠身，连九月份的开发日志漏写这件事，也是经由旁人提醒才察觉。

眼看已近十月底，干脆就写一份儿合并报告吧。

先说一下目前游戏的情况：

正开发中的是第三章蓝色Cop线，开发进度为10%，会尽可能在3个月内（希望能在年前完成 :x）完成。

内容方面，对剧情、对台词、对演出，对罗威纳壮汉这名角色由内至外，从头到脚，不留余力，以直到最后一滴都要榨取出的气势进行着开发。

和“王子”相反，Cop看起来是个很有，嗯，动机丰富的角色。

他有一个想要守护，也不得不守护的目标。

为此自愿献身，承载一切，应该算是史诗神话中经常歌颂的那种“英雄”吧。

让这样的角色遭罪受虐，并挎着一张老实人被欺负时感到无奈的脸，认真执行着会削减人格浓度的命令，会讽刺性地使脚本儿硬得下不了床。

虽是人气的性癖，但若如此白送又有些不够刺激，便尝试加入了“算计”的要素进行补正。

就像“威风凛凛”是“英雄”堕落的必备条件，总要给予Cop一些更加帅气的标签。

机关算尽的壮汉——也就是说，所谓的老实或许是伪装，所谓的遭罪不过只是苦肉计。

不断被强调的野裸之说，说不定只是为了掩盖什么真相，“王子”口中提到的他的未婚妻，也怕不是无稽之谈。

他凭借毅力千锤百炼的肉体未曾被人这样那样的凌虐，尊严与下体不会像面团似的任人肆意揉捏。

汗水与努力的结晶也绝不会融入脐下三寸流出的废液中，毫无价值的喷洒在房间的地板上，直到腐烂为止吧？

吧？

在红色线中，看似了解Cop的“王子”说不定是在故意撒谎，亦或者与其是合作关系。

而蓝色线中，清楚Cop本质的前辈当面爆头一次是为复活秀，爆头两次或许便是为震慑了。

如同米泽穗信大师在《算计》中所描绘的人心那般绮丽诡谲，让人深感不安。

出于算计而作践自己的Cop，究竟是出于何种意愿？

出于现在还不是抖包袱的时刻，所以无法言明一切。

但这个问题的答案，脚本儿我非常期待能在游戏中展示出来！合理而又有趣的展示出来（尽力）！

↑将会出现在第三章蓝线的CG之一↑

关于周边的情况：

直到这个月月中为止，制作的周边已经陆续到货了。

想必下次报告之前便能完成上架的准备。

虽然品类上不占什么特色，但设计上也算是绞尽脑汁。

在这里还是要感谢参与设计的画师们，绘制得实在是精美！

至于具体的品类，还请如下：

1. We're together 鼠标垫

2. 打底T-恤衫两件（方块狗，狗血乐团）

3. 罐头钥匙扣（狗血乐团5件套装，罐头包装）

4. Cop的内裤（犹豫之下，最后还是制作了）

以及之前少量的周边：

1. 前辈立牌

2. 小桑毛巾

↑小桑瞬息全宇宙（笑）↑

最后是关于进度的报告：

最近的产量是十分的低，文字质量也并不理想。

由于不得不移除“可能会产生争议”的部分后，脚本儿的思路都有些乱了。

但这与码字的效率也并非完全相关，所以不过只是矫情抱怨而已。

就像是被人用手指在自己的咖啡杯里搅了一圈那样恶心。

主打一份戏弄。

询问过某只成妖的树，解决这种烦闷感的方法，便只有埋头苦写了。

而这种时候就是要毅力，就像Cop健身时那样。

只不过虽然喜欢肌肉男，却在面对肌肉男所拥有的毅力时败下阵来。

还是只有甜食与咖啡因才能治愈我的心。

只是桂花早凋，余香已消，只留下满肚脂肪不知如何是好，又要长胖了。
