All things considered, this week is off to a really good start.
Resolved a couple of issues on the home front that needed doing, none of which cut into my time as much as I had feared.
Spent about three hours adding submission work to Inheritance. Added around 5k words in total.
Spent a couple of hours storyboarding out a few things I want to write this week. Not sure how many of them I'll be getting done this week, but I'm excited to see how far I can get...

It's been reported by several people that for some reason the files I uploaded to Patreon last night for the Last Stand of Ra build are downloading as binary files.
First, the solution: The files can still be opened using winzip/winrar or whatever compression tool you use.
The problem: As close as I can tell, this is a problem on the Patreon side of things. I uploaded rar and zip files the same way I do every time, they show up ...

Those of you who have been with us for a while know what to do already, but I'll take a moment to explain things for the rest of you.
What we do each week is we take a vote on what I will be focusing the bulk of my attention on the following week. At the end of each week, I take the top item and that becomes my new work item. All other votes are carried over to the next week to be added to the following week's poll.

The last few days have been more chaotic than usual. And unfortunately not all in a good way. Wed & Thur went sideways on me. Had some unexpected stuff come up related to Inheritance (Not a bad thing) and had some unexpected stuff come up on the home front (Bad thing.)
Lets start with the bad news and work our way toward the good.
This first bit is personal, and doesn't really affect you guys much other than the down time he created and the dow...

There's a wistful expression on Anna's face when you see her sitting in the room.
"Welcome back," She says pleasantly, turning her attention toward you.
After a brief moment, she continues, "I was asked to speak with you again, to let you know what's been going on this week."
Her slight smile falters, her expression turning more serious as she begins, "Master has been taking Mitsuko into town recently. They've been visiting a couple of the local business...

Today was a blast. I opted to trade in my "Writer's Choice" votes from our weekly "What should I work on" poll and made this a Last Stand of Ra week.
Since we'll be seeing the first real release of that game this coming Friday, all of the content I'm creating is going to be saved and actually coded into the game after the release so there's plenty of time to test it before it sees a more general release.
I've also decided that this first real release of the game is going t...

Been a busy work, a lot of it has been back end stuff, code work and working on things that didn't make it into this particular test build (But will hopefully be ready for the next one.), but we've still got a lot of new content for all of you fine people to enjoy!
This build includes quite a bit of new content, new scenes for both Anna and Eve, some new content for Maki and Bubbles, and quite a bit of new content for Mitsuko. Includes a couple of new scenes in town as ...

Had another really good day today. But it's late, and I'm tired, so this is going to be fairly short.
Spent the day adding some submitted content, couple of really fun scenes. Once I worked through that, I spent some time doing a little polish for the TEST build I plan release some time tomorrow.
In the background, one of our coders is streamlining some of what we are doing, so while it's not something you guys are going to really notice on the surface, it S...

Had another really good day today.
Managed to write a fairly decent sized scene start to finish and got it into the game Was really happy with the end result.
Spent some time adding content that had been submitted for the game. Mitsuko is rapidly catching up with Anna and Eve in terms of content and the author has some really great stuff in the works.
Had another small scene show up while I was writing this. Looks like a fun one and I'll be getti...

Been a crazy day. Got quite a bit of work done on Inheritance, including finishing up a moderately large scene, adding a couple of submissions, and adding an entire new location in town among all of my usual stuff. At present, we've got about 8k words of new content fully coded into the game, so we've got a really good start on the week.
Had a really good talk with some of our crew earlier about adding pets to the game. It's not something we're planning to...

This last week I worked on Last Stand of Ra. Made some good progress setting up the sandbox element of the starting area and we'll be moving into the story driven content in the next couple of builds. Very exciting stuff and I'm looking forward to getting to share the game with everyone!

With this build, the game starts to take shape a bit. There's not a lot to do just yet, mostly it's enough of the navigation and a hand full of early ambient scenes to start giving a feel for the game.
I would LOVE to hear everyone's first impressions. Let me know what you think, and if you' can think of scenes you'd like to see appear in the game, then now would be a really good time to mention them.
What you are playing is what I'll be releasing to everyone i...

First, yes, I know I haven't posted a weekly recap in a couple of weeks. Too much stuff to do that seemed more important at the time. I'll be making an effort to get a recap out some time in the next day or two.
Had a couple more bugs reported with Inheritance. Working on them now and hope to have a fix up in the next few hours.
Will be putting out a TEST build for Last Stand of Ra some time this evening.
As of right now, it looks like Inheritance will be...

Had a small number of minor problems reported. The attached html file should fix the following:
*Fix for missing Misaki conversation.
*Fix for two of Mitsuko's night time sex endings.
*Bubbles and Maki visiting the mansion before you meet them should be fixed for future builds. You will need to either meet Bubbles and Maki, or start a new game in order to fix this issue.

Received a short story from a fan of Wanton Cove this morning, it was the perfect start of the day and put me in a very good mood. It was an epilogue for the story and very well written. I posted it for patrons earlier today with the blessing of the author.
Now, on to Last Stand:
Finished up everything I had on my to-do list for the week today. Very pleased with that considering that I was setting up areas for the game rather than just writing content to drop into e...

In the last few years, I have received a lot of fan mail, I've received occasional art, and every once in a while a fan will write a little short story that they choose to send my way. The only down side to all of this is that many of these people prefer that I not share their creations.
This morning I was greeted by a short story in my inbox, one that I enjoyed quite a bit. When I started to read it, my initial thought was that the person had copy/pasted a bit of story to ...

Been a fun couple of days.
Yesterday I got the third of five locations completed that I want to have into the next build of Last Stand with a fourth started.
Spent about six hours researching anything I could find about ancient Egyptian temples and the everyday life in and around then, . . . . considering how much information you can find on ancient Egypt, I was more than a little surprised at how little there was by way of specifics about their temples and how t...

Has been an interesting day. Less productive in some areas than planned, more in others.
We'll start with Last Stand since that's this week's project:
-Managed to write seven small scenes for the game. Basically it's everything needed to get one location into the game and the first part of a second location. My goal is to have all five of the initial locations into the game by the end of this week along with a small number of scenes for that location.

Had a single item reported with the new content, an event that was throwing an error in the kitchens. Has been fixed with this build.
If anyone has noticed anything else, please report it! I spent maybe five minutes moving around the mansion and the grounds looking for possible problems, but didn't get any errors, but all of you are putting a lot more time into play than I am, so it's entirely possible that you'll see things I didn't have time to extensively test.

Before I get to my usual preamble, I wanted to say a few words.
The Allure of Wanton Cove has been a labor of love for about four years now, and while it began with humble beginnings, it quickly took on a life of it's own. Even once we reached version 1.0 and the game was complete, all of you asked for more, and because of that I continued to pour my heart into the game through another fifteen builds.
It has been an amazing journey, and a creator c...
