Hey guys! Going through the latest draft build, it struck us that we could make one of the scenes have a little more pizazz, and we wanted to open it up to you guys for input!
So here's the scene:
You've just gotten your farmgirl neighbor a lovely little silver cowbell trinket from the market. You decide you will visit her home to give her the gift, and find her doing the laundry outside. How do you present the gift to her? (you've had time to prepare!)

Here's the full resolution image so you guys can make out what's even being served at the picnic. Mm, mm, I can smell Balgair's haggis recipe from here!
The in-game version has animated clouds and sun-glow... we'll have to put our heads together to see if there's a feasible way to animate the crowd, too!

Spring has sprung, and it's a lovely day for a picnic in the Highlands! It looks like the whole town showed up (or at least it feels like it, after drawing all those silhouettes! :P). Join your neighbors and come have some fun!
We're just about done with the code on Marion's Chapter 2 and getting things set up for the next Beta build. In the meantime, we also updated the Working Documents to reflect the current plans for the story, including some adjustments ...

Today we just hit 500 Patrons! How cool is that?! We are so humbled that so many people are supporting and making this game happen. It's a privilege to get to build it for you all!

Last time you voted for Marion's Chapter 2, which we are coding in now for the next build!
So our authors can keep out in front, which girl's story line would you like us to focus on after that?

Ach-na-Creige is full of romantic opportunity, but there's no guarantee that Malcolm will find a girl that's right for him! Depending on how you play your cards, Malcolm might end up a bachelor for the foreseeable future. How he feels about that depends on your choices, too!
After a day and a half without power thanks to a nasty nor'easter, I'm back to rocking and rolling on my tablet and have just a few scenes left to finish. Enjoy the sneak peek while we wrap up the new build!

Hello Beta Tester Tier!
It's that time again! This month's Beta build features the entirety of Chapter 1, at long last linking us up to the Jessie content from the demo. There's quite a few pathways featuring all three girls, so enjoy building those relationships with your waifu of choice!

If you play your cards right, maybe Grace will take you to see her secret place!
This upcoming build has multiple dates with all three MacLeod girls, 6 endings, and all sorts of paths to get there. As a result we ended up play-testing last week to make sure all those paths were working correctly, but with that out of the way, we're kicking new image asset production into full gear: new sprite alternates, new BG's, new frames, and new scenes like this one!

We're coding the second half of Chapter 1 now, but to let our authors keep out in front, we're asking you which girl's story line we should focus on next. Hopefully you've had a chance to meet them all in the latest build!
So once we've released the rest of Chapter 1, whose chapter will we focus on next?

Hello Beta Tester Tier!
We have today for your playing enjoyment the next (technically first!) installment in the story, the first three days of Chapter 1! It plays about as long as the demo, but has a fair amount more content because it includes branching story lines.

By now hopefully all of you have received and read the notice from Patreon that, starting Dec. 18, credit card processing fees will now be charged to patrons instead of the creator, and at a flat rate. If you are supporting other creators, you may have heard that a lot of us do not agree with this restructuring.
I won't make you guys sit through another creator complaining about the change, but I just want to state for the record that I am also against it. If you want to know why, ...
