Update - 2 May 2017

tl;dr - There's been lots of LMO progress, I talk a little about the current Patreon situation and I reveal more details about the PAL expansion pack.

This week's image

I could have shown you something a bit more explicit, but I think this pic shows a lot of the potential that's coming up in the PAL expansion pack. I've got a nice alternative view on this one too - I'll show you that in a public update at some point, I think. :)

Anyway, this is likely going to be a part of a new interactive scene that I've wanted to include for quite a while, but there just wasn't really space in the main game project. I really like the tension that comes from putting Iku and Kim in the same bedroom, with their clashing personalities but mutual submission to Kenji.

Let Me Out progress

I've been putting a whole lot of new commands into LMO thanks to a few transcripts (thanks very much to those of you who've sent them!) and thanks to the help of EFon, who has really been putting in great strides to get it moving. If you've played the game you'll know it's still not very responsive, but I'm putting into practice many of the lessons learned from the past game and picking up on 

On the writing, we've actually got a great start on a bunch of the upcoming endings. I still need to illustrate most of them but at least when it comes to writing we've got a lot of it done. I've done a fair bit but EFon's really stepped up and filled in a whole lot of it. Ultimately I will edit them for overall consistency, but I'm happy with how it's progressing.

Business matters

I won't lie, the sliding support numbers here have made things a little stressful for me since the release of PAL. I know I just need to put out more exclusive material here, but it's proving a rocky transition between PAL and my new projects. I do have plans going forward for fixing this; LMO will soon be at a level where I can promote it and the PAL expansion pack is advancing too. Then once both of those are ticking along nicely I can start looking at Pervert Action: Timelapse again, but for now it's temporarily on pause. I'm still keen to work on that project, of course.

For this reason I need to put out a public release of LMO as soon as possible. I wasn't expecting this, but I think it's necessary to get one out there soon just so that people realise I'm still working and have a reason to take an interest in the Patreon. I don't want to spend all my time having to manage the business and promotion side of this stuff, I want to keep working, but I do have to think about it sometimes or I'll just have to go back to doing this as a once-a-week hobby thing.

PAL expansion pack news

I'm probably going to announce details for the PAL expansion pretty soon. Therefore, I can tell you a few bits now in advance of the public announcement:

• I'm pretty sure we're doing a Kimiko/Iku/Kenji threesome. We really like the new pictures for that, so it's pretty much locked in.
• Hiroshi will be making some new, different night service requests.
• You will have more options to feel up the maids (and more) when walking around the house during the day.
• There's a new sub-plot coming, with new challenges and story.
• New hidden rooms around the house.
• And there's more. I don't want to get into it too much, but there could be a lot more than that. It depends how much interest there is in the project, really.

I'll announce the name and what the sub-plot is (roughly) about when I reveal this all publicly. I do think you'll like what we've got in store for you. :)

Let me know what you think, I love your comments!
