Post-Ending Interview Questions

I'm thinking about a fun little post 'interview' in-game side story for every characters after the player completes the ending.


Would you like to submit a question?

Status Update & Note on final Patreon names

Just a quick update to share some progress!

The sprite artist is currently working on the new assets for The End.

Another artist is currently working on 3 CGs for The End. Woo!

The End is fully written and edited, but I'm waiting on the sprite assets before programming. WOOOO!

As Patreon supports have come and gone, I've been updating the Patreons screen to reflect current active members over the last year regardless of contribution or tier. So this has been changing c...

Overall Game Status Update for July 2023

The primary content for the game is done! I'm so excited. I never thought I'd actually reach this point, haha. The game development started in Feb 2022, so it's been over a year!

Fun news: The game is now as of build 0.4.4.7 over 40 hours of content (given a reading speed of 200wpm, which is the low-end of average)! My original goal was 30, so YAY!

So............. now what?! Is it done?!

Not quite! There's still the ending! Remember Lux and ...

Update #22 0.4.4.7 - Mini Stories done!

With this update, all the primary content is now done! WOO!!!

I'll make a status post tomorrow on next steps.

Since the primary content is complete, I've once again disabled the 'Reality' tier option, as we're in the home stretch to release!

Thanks for your support, everyone!

Overall Game Status Update June 2023

I provide daily status updates on the Discord, but haven't done an overall status update on the game as a whole in what feels like forever!

All main routes have been completed for awhile and I've been working on side content these last few months.

Since the last Patreon release, I've been writing frantically for the remaining side content. I have drafted (still needs editing and programming)...

Updates to membership options!

Due to the unexpected postponement (now for Q3, fingers crossed) of the game release due to my personal situation, I've decided to remove the member limit on the Reality tier ($6/month USD).

I'd intended that limit to only be present for a couple months.

Reality tier currently gets everything except future sneak-peeks of content until release. (Post-release, early access/beta builds will resume when DLC development begins.)

The particle tier is now unavailab...

Status & Alex Eye Candy

Alexander now has a topless sprite!

For new members, I am planning to run a poll after game release on whether or not an Alexander route will be added to Obsession (the base game). 

I expect I already know the answer :) so brainstorming for that has been in the back of my mind on and off for months.

But that will only take place AFTER release. You can also follow my social medias or join Discord to stay up to date to know when that takes place.

Update #19 0.4.4.1 - new Julian What If

As mentioned, I'm going to be moving in < 2 weeks!

There will not be an update on the first week of May due to the move.

April 2023 Plans

Time & Next Release

The last two weeks of April are going to be chaotic, as I'm moving among other things I need to handle.

Because of this, the next release may be early/mid May, or I might do a much earlier one if some content is ready. Not sure yet!

Mid-March Status Update & Sneak Peek

Hi all,

I realized that those not a part of the Clairvoyant tier have heard nothing but silence for a few weeks, sorry about that!


Personal Note

Significant and unexpected life changes happened early this month, and due to those life events my world is upside down right now. I've had a lot of appointments, some necessary self-time, and at the end of April, I will be moving. I'm already packing and making those arrangements.

Personal Note:

I have some issues in my personal life this week. (I'm not dying, don't worry.) That's the reason this update is a bit later than expected. Thanks for your patience.

This will have some impacts on my creativity and schedule for awhile. I'll still do my best to be transparent about content and releases, as always.

Remembrance Artwork (spoilers~)

Brandon's getting a little scary!

All of this artwork is for the first DLC "Remembrance", which starts development after Obsession's release. What does it all mean? What is this pin he's wearing? You'll find out! :)

Update #14 - 0.4.1.0

Status Update -

Our first non-monthly update, woo! As mentioned before (or for new members), now that we're inching towards release, I'll be doing more ad-hoc updates. From now on, updates will either be new side content or additional polish, probably alternating between the two, and I'll be putting them up as soon as they're ready. (The password will still change once a month.)

Next update will be a lot of Sebastian's route polish, probably in 1-2 weeks.

Thank you!

Just a quick note to say thanks to everyone for your support and patience on Julian's rewrite!

I was never happy with Julian's route. It always felt like it was missing something and seemed fairly out of place with the other routes, too. There were contradictions in Julian's character that just never made any s...
