FINALLY! Your patience has paid off.
It's been one hell of a ride getting all these systems to cooperate with each other. And the more fixes I made, the more I began to understand the coding, and the better I got at smoothing things out. There were a LOT of trips to the LemmaSoft forums and the Ren'Py Discord, as well as requests for help from fellow devs and people from Itch, F95Zone, and even my Twitch community that this could not have happened without. Thank you all. So very fucking much. You have no idea how integral your help was in pushing this game through its hardest drought yet.
What you need to know:
What's out right now is the Supporter Only Demo. This features Season 2 Episode 1, half of Season 2 Episode 2, and 1 Free Time segment with 1 Side Story scene selectable. This build is largely for testing purposes, and getting feedback on how well people feel the Free Time mechanic meshes with the pace of the story. This is a SMALL chunk of the content that's been written, and we put our efforts into polishing and refining this so it felt complete. We have a LOT more scenes written, particularly in the Side Stories, but they need to be shot, scored, and bugtested. Putting this demo out gives Supporters the direct continuation of the story and gives us time to shoot these side scenes.
WHEN WILL IT GO PUBLIC?
That depends. How much more tech dick will I have to fight through?
Supporter Release Schedule:
T5 Supporters and up: 6/30/23 (right now; see the link attached to this post)
T4 Supporters: 7/7/23 (you'll be granted permission to view the attached post link)
T3 Supporters: 7/14/23
T2 Supporters: 7/21/23
T1Supporters: 7/28/23
Public (Free): Undetermined, aiming for 8/31/23 dependent on complications
As always, I'll be monitoring the Discord for feedback, as that is where I'm directing everyone now. As useful as the Google Forms have been, I've been griped at more than a few times for DARING to open a browser window on people's computers. So I'll now be taking most of the feed back in the appropriate Discord channels.
You'll be hearing more from me soon!

2023-06-30 17:47:37 +0000 UTCIt's a very very small portion of the content, probably only an hour or two worth of actual play. Meant as more of a proof of concept for the Free Time system. I'm fairly confident people will like it, though, and while people are trying this out, we'll be working on lots more content, which will likely drop for Supporters in the beginning of August hopefully :) Thank you so much for your continued support.

2023-06-30 16:49:23 +0000 UTCI've been looking forward to this. Here's hoping it is a good one. Once I get access on the 7th anyways. :)
