Happy New Year!
Dear Patrons!
Hope you've all had some fun this Christmas!
The year was eventful for me, and kept me busy personally which unfortunately took a toll on my Patreon content schedule. My team and I decided to try including interactive elements in our novels, and I spent 4-5 weeks to upgrade my coding skills and we reworked on the story and renders for 'Finding Love in the Lens (FLITL)' mini VN. Thank you all for showing such a positive response to our efforts.
About Luis' Fun Trip, we reworked the story and some renders to implement 'routes' in the next chapter. This upcoming chapter will have 2 routes for Luis' relationship: The first will focus on a single, monogamous route; it will focus on the romantic and interpersonal connection between two people The second will be broader, with a much wilder story-line exploring various kinks.
However, both my editors are spending holidays with their family until the Monday the 2nd. The update will be released as soon as we sort out the last of the renders!
Wishing everyone loads of happiness, good health and prosperity...
Happy New Year all!

Hello guys!
I hope you enjoyed the recently released part one of 'Finding Love in the Lens'!
Next update is back to LFTS though, and work is going at full speed! The update will be posted very soon, and will mark the end of Chapter 2.
In the next chapter, we'll be introducing 2 routes for Luis' relationship: One will focus on kink, and the other will be a daring adventure. More info on this coming soon!
Additionally, I've been giving LFTS chapter 1 a good polish; so now you can look forward to the following:
- The game has been up-scaled to 1080p resolution.
- We've improved the coding to eliminate lag. The game-play is much smoother now.
- Added transitions and worked on timing.
- Corrected typos, text size and styles
- Save and load options added
- Edited and improved renders.

A new public demo is here featuring these improvements, and added a few scenes from Chapter 2.
Meet Niles...
Introducing... Niles! He's been at Fredrick's side for years, and as such knows all his quirks. A consummate professional, Niles is able to adapt to any situation and accommodate any needs.
He'll be appearing in the next LFTS update, which should be dropping very soon.

Hello,
Another novel in the Steedhaven series, this one will have you playing as Jakob, who has an important connection to one of Luis' co-models... Follow along with him as a chance encounter becomes something so much more; anything from carnal passion to true love.
I'm trying something different with this novel, where the endings will be player determined! Will Jakob look for love? Or indulge in lust? Will he be a domineering top? An eager bottom? A flexible switch? The choices are entirely yours! And if you don't like 'em... you can play again and change them!
As well as the primary relationship, others both platonic and intimate will appear over the story. How you deal with them may have consequences...

Toms Log!!!
Hey everyone!
Just wanted update you on what I've been working on...
I've been polishing my coding skills, and I'm currently producing the mini-novel to show them off. I'm aiming for around 200 CGs, so it'll be a sizable one! This novel is gonna be tied into Steedhaven, but you'll be playing as Jakob, who has an important connection with one of Luis' co-models...
This novel will be somewhat unique in my works, in that the ending is player determined, including whether you aim for lust or love, as well as whether or not Jakob is a top, a bottom or a versatile.
Of course, Jakob will meet a range of characters in this story, and some of them will be more intimate than others... There will also be two shorter side routes for you to discover!
Look forward to the demo, it's coming very soon for all patrons!
(And fans of Luis, never fear! I've been working on his story too! I'll make a post about that next week!!)
Halloween Bonus Images 1
You might have noticed that Dan was absent from the Halloween pictures this year Well, he was sent over to the studio to have them taken, but it seems like he and Mark got a little distracted!

Happy Halloween everyone!
I hope your Hallow's Eve is filled with fun and fortune (and handsome guys in skimpy outfits!)
Remember to look after yourselves and others, and I'll see you back here soon with some new updates!
Update about mini VN...
Dear Patrons,
I had promised you to have Chan's story "Finding Love in the Lens" published by now, and I hope that many of you were looking forward to it. However, myself and my team have decided to change the format of the story...
Instead of being a linear story as my others have been, this will be an experiment into a story with player driven choices, as well as multiple endings.
If y'all like prefer this type of game play, we'll look at fleshing out all future stories, so that your experiences in Steedhaven will become even more unique! But for now, please accept our apologies for the delay, Chan's story will be published soon!

Hello everyone!
LFTS ver 0.29 is now available to all patrons!
A Bare-All Report on Steedhaven
In the poll for the appearance of the 'reporter character', we had two serious contenders; 'A beefy hunk, in casual beachwear' got 40% and 'A slender twink, in smart business casual' got 33% votes. We were pretty torn up, so... we decided to make 2 characters! This bonus content will be posted before 'Halloween' for all patrons. VIP members will get a extended version..
Finding Love in the Lens
Additionally, Chan and Jakob's love story "Finding Love in the Lens" will be posted soon. VIP's and Worshipers can enjoy this erotic mini visual novel. Teasers will be posted soon for all patrons!
Finally, about LFTS Ver 0.3, Chapter 2 will be completed in this update. Renders are in progress. After Luis' encounter with the two police officers, he will once again meet up with Fredrick... More news and teasers will be shared soon!
One other small note: Patreon has now changed their billing so that you will be charged the same day every month, instead of the start of the month. This means you’re always guaranteed to get a full month of content.

The curious reporter!
As (I hope!) you read in Tom's log, we've got plans to interview the handsome residents of Steedhaven. However, we need an inquisitive soul to do so!
So I ask you all; what should he look like?
2022-08-30 18:05:57 +0000 UTC View PostToms Log!
Hey guys! good news and more good news!
LFTS 0.29 comes out on 5th September! A tender story line with some of our most favourite scenes so far.. Hope you are excited!!
Secondly, another bonus content (Mini visual story) comes out in September for "VIP' and "Worshiper" tier members - Our new model Chan finds comfort in the most unexpected manner!
That's not all! Since I got some really great feedback from the Martin's Pixels series, and I thought you might like another chance to get to know Luis and the boys even better! I was thinking about adding another series (from October) of short ren'py game, where a new character plays reporter who's doing a piece on Steedhaven. And in order to that, he's going to be interviewing the residents of Steedhaven - learning their intimate secrets and sexy stories of Steedhaven.
What will this set up look like and what kind of questions will he be asking? Well that's up to you! Help shape this piece by responding to some polls and also DM me the questions that you would like the reporter to ask during this interview. As for our first interviewee? Who better than the friendly guy who knows everyone in Steedhaven (and most of them quite intimately..!) Dan!
