You Snooze, You Lose! (Tai & Adrian Sleeping CGs)

...just five more minutes.

0.42 May Patreon Update Now Available! (FINALLY)

And thus, the worst crunch I have ever subjected myself to draws to a close. Holy shit. Never again. What a complete nightmare.

As mentioned in the last progress report, 19x2 ended up being split in two with the rest of the planned content being shifted to 19x3. This update contains 19x1 and 19x2. 19x3 will be in the next update.

Apologies that the update overall is of the typical length ...

It keeps getting longer!

I'm sorry this is taking so long. If it's any condolence, this chapter really should be split into two seperate chapters at this point simply due to their length. Make no mistake, this'll be the longest content drop we've done in a while, and there's definitely three chapters worth of stuff there too.

I've spent a ton of time on it this morning and we're closer than even to completing it. There's one major segment then a couple of smaller minor segments to follow, then it's don...

Shit's ridiculous, lol... (Progress Report)

So, get this, my doctor just kind of... forgot my repeat prescription. I followed this up and he sorted it, albeit late. All is well that ends well... except the pharmacy posted out the meds... and they've ended up on the other side of the fucking country by mistake. And with both delays accounted for, I'm now completely out.

This shit only happens to me and only at the worst times, I swear!

All going well the meds will arrive tomorrow , but that's another factor which isn't helpi...

Progress Report

Hey y'all, just quickly checking in to let you know where I'm at and how things are looking release wise. I'll keep this relatively brief as not to cut into writing time! 

I actually tried a bunch to write this and kept ending up with walls of text as I am known to do. Whoops. So fuck that shit, here's a properly concise version.

19x2 has been tough to write because it balances so many different plot threads both internal and external to the main story taking place. It was al...

Small Delay for this month's Patreon Update

Hey everyone,

Tried super hard to finish up on time, but the content that makes up the second half of this forthcoming update showcases a number of unique writing challenges that have resulted in slower progress than what I'd anticipated. For instance, until now, I've always just kind of winged it when it came to characters specific dialogue quirks, however this months new boy Roo has more than just quirks -sometimes it's a whole other language! This is to say that I've gone the extra ...

Say "G'Day" to Roux! Wait, no... to Roo! Yeah, that's right!

I admit, I'd been wanting to make a Kangaroo for a long time. So when I randomly had an idea for a dumb gag where Glenn's bandmates were Roux and Roo resulting in much confusion for the poor wolf, I decided to run with that idea - and here is the result!

Roo is the second tallest character in Sileo, standing an inch shorter than Lukas at 6ft 7in - and yes, that's measured from the top of his skull! The tips of his ears are the highest point on any sprite as things currently stand.

Where's the booze and the lines of coke?! This ain't very rock n roll! 

Progress Report

Ssh! They're sleeping!

Sorry it's been a while since the last progress report. Real life has been... real life-ish, you know what I mean. One piece of good news is I've had family staying for the past 6 months which certainly hasn't helped on account of noise and distractions, and they've just moved out at long last! So that's one less thing to slow me down!

With that being said...

Two Years Tomorrow!

Hey, did you know that tomorrow, the 18th of April, is the second anniversary of the day development on Sileo began?!

That’s right! CurryCatz and I had come into contact a few days prior. He had already demonstrated his skill with some early renderings of Diego, and I had demonstrated mine with an old playable prototype I had worked on several years prior. We both wanted the same thing, to make a visual novel simply for the love of it, and we both knew full well that it was unlikely t...

What's cooking, good looking?

Thought you all would enjoy a little sneak peek of things to come...

He'd offer you a mouthwatering snack, but you have something else in mind, don't you?

Delivering The Goods - Extended In-Game Version

0.42 will include both of the 'surprises' posted here over the last couple of months, but rather than have poor old Kyrex letterboxed, I figured why not match everything up with the background and extend it to fullscreen?

You'll be able to see this in game next month by clicking 'Bonus Content' under the special scenes gallery menu.

Perfect dimensions for a wallpaper! If... you know, you're into that...

You'll roux the day... no, wait, that's not right... you'll ROO the day you miss this progress report!

owo whos dis

Originally, we hadn't intended Roo to make an appearance in Tai's route, after all, Tobias was supposed to be the last new character introduction, but like Hidetaka Miyazaki and his compulsion to make horrible poison swamps, my compulsion is to keep adding new character after new character! I'm supposed to be restraining myself with those... it isn't going so well...

Eric has been living in a stock photo for a year and a half now. Pity him, for it is all he knows... 

...maybe next month, he'll have enough money to rennovate the outside and get rid of that Swedish flag (that I literally only noticed today, holy shit) while he's at it! 

(Love you, Sweden, but trust me, you don't want Eric! I'm doing you a favor!)

April Sileo Patreon Builds Now Available!

Psst. Hey. You kids wanna buy some crac- I-I mean a new Sileo update? That’s right, you know what time it is, and apologies it’s a little later than we usually go for, our testing team is bigger than ever and that means they keep finding shit to fix! The good news is we’re all fixed out, and that means you can finally sink your teeth into the new update!

So, what’s new?

Well first of all, Day 18 of Tai’s Route is finally done! Holy crap that took way to...

Progress Report

Phew! Cutting it fine as always! 

I wound up rewriting both 18x6 and 18x7 entirely from scratch keeping nothing, simply because I wasn't happy with the previous versions. Since my last update, I haven't really touched 18x7 again, that's still mostly rewritten from last time but needs finishing off as well as a couple of new pieces added which tie in with 18x6. 18x7 is a shorter chapter overall, so it shouldn't take long to do that and get it wrapped up properly. 

18x6 is...

Progress Report

Howdy! 

Just dropping in to say that the last two chapters of Day 18, Chapters 6 and 7, are both now in first pass state. Which is to say they're written and I'm mostly happy with their contents and what not. From here I'll be interating on them, polishing them up, expanding some sections, etc. Chapter 6 might get reorganized a bit, the conversation flow is kind of odd right now. I may also make some tweaks to Tobias' dialogue yet, just to make sure he's just right! Chapter 7 has a...

Return to Monke

He's in, and boy, let me tell you, getting the layering right for his beanie and so his hair didn't clip the collar of his hoodie was... well a learning experience to be sure!

Tonight is the night I finally bust out that scene we've all been waiting for, so I figured I'd get his sprite all up and running in-engine beforehand... didn't expect it'd take hours, but hey, that's life!

Oh, and he may look sweet and innocent... but that's how he get's ya! Don't trust the damn mo...

Attention: Anybody with the issue where characters are showing where they shouldn't be

Hey guys. We've been really scratching our heads on this one as it's not something that really could be caused by any code on our end, it's more of an engine thing. Our best guess right now is that with all the changes, Ren'Py has accumulated some garbage data which is causing things to get a little strange. 

The worst part in all of this is that we've not been able to replicate it at all which makes it very difficult to fix - anything we do is an educated guess at best, a stab in ...

Sileo Patreon Update 0.40.6 Now Available

Howdy, everyone! 

Yesterdays update had a few bugs, glitches and other fun stuff. Of note, Autosave was not working if you loaded a save file, there was a big ugly error message waiting on Day 5, and apparently a ghostly version of Dom has been showing up in places he shouldn't!

The first two are fixed, but that last one... it's awfully mysterious and doesn't reflect the code at all. I've attempted  to address two specific sightings, Day 4 and Day 14 of Tai's Ro...

Surprise! Mid-Month Sileo Content Update (0.40.5) Now Available!

Surprise! Told you there was one more surprise coming this month! Sorry, I'd hoped to have it finished quicker than this. At this rate I might as well make my fursona a fucking sloth!

This is only a small update and is intended as thanks for being so patient with me lately, I know things have been all over the place update wise so hopefully this helps make up for it. This update contains the pl...

Another Surprise!

Patreon doesn't let you embed videos unless they're externally hosted (nuts, right?), but you should definitely click the link to the video file attached below! You'll like it!

Tai Taking Care Of Business... (Video) 

Back to it!

Following the release of the last update, we took our usual time off and played so much Elden Ring. And just as I'm beginning to wrap things up with that game, I realize Gran Turismo 7 released at some point very recently and I didn't even notice! Oh well, it'll have to wait - it's Sileo time again!

I hope you're all enjoying the 0.40 update! We've had almost no bug reports which is quite surprising indeed! Surely there must be some, right? Remember to let us know if you run in...
