Weekly report

Hello!

I will write briefly about the progress of the week.

New character and place

The map now contains a new place for the player to visit, called the "commercial building". This building will serve to give access to different locations in future updates. Currently, the only place the player can access is the photo studio.

The studio will be unlocked after a certain event with Charlotte and the photographer (Roxane). There, the player will...

Friday's post

Technically it's Saturday, but let's ignore this small detail...

What am I doing

I am working on HS Tutor at the moment. In yesterday's post I explained that a problem with the auto-save being called at inappropriate times was causing the game to run badly (basically the game was saving every time the player move between different areas). So the next version will run much smoother.

I added new locations to visit. The first one is a residential bui...

A small post on game performance improvements

Hey guys!

Today I "lost" almost the whole day trying to solve a weird problem that I noticed in my games. Some of you may have noticed that when you are in a specific place in any of my games (for example, at the Solvalley bank, or at your home at HS Tutor) and click on the shortcut to the city map, the game does not makes a smooth transition, but it freezes for a few milliseconds.

In HS Tutor this problem is even more evident, since sometimes you have to wait 1 second for the cit...

On Solvalley's future (change of plans)

Hello!

In the last post I said that Solvalley would now be a secondary project and that I would dedicate almost all my time to HS Tutor.

I changed my mind, I will continue to dedicate myself to Solvalley as much as to HS Tutor until I reach the following goals:

• create another scene for Ruzena in the bank plus her ending
• create Sabrina's storyline (it'll be a short story)
• finish Tatiana's storyline
• add a new scene for Saori on...

Writing some things while uploading Solvalley 1.0.0

Hello!

I am uploading version 1.0.0 of Solvalley School, and as the process will take a while, I will write a lot of things here for those who want to read.

Note: probably my English will be a little worse than normal because I have been awake for so long that my brain is no longer functioning at 100% capacity.

My opinion about the new version

To be honest, I am not very satisfied with the result of the work of these past two months.

T...

Finally the new Solvalley update is 100% done!

Sorry guys, but what I thought would be just 24 hours of tuning and testing ended up being 5 days for several reasons.

I still need to make sure that there are no serious bugs in the game, which I will do after getting some sleep.

I had major problems during this update and even though it has +750 images and more than 100 animations, I am still not 100% satisfied with the result and the time needed (almost 2 months!). I will explain it better when uploading the game (if no disaste...

Patreon's notice regarding taxes

Hello! Patreon will modify the way that they collect taxes. You can read more about this subject here:

Good news!

Hello!

As I said in the previous post, I had received a message that my page would be scrutinized by Patreon. Here the message:

As I am a pessimist, I thought I would have to make changes to my content and I was already preparing myself for the worst scenario, where I would need to block the page for a while to fix all possible problems.

However, the good news is that this message h...

I deleted a bunch of old posts (+ Discord link).

Hey guys!

I found out that Patreon is analyzing my page/account (i don't know if because they want to make sure that I'm not breaking any of their rules, or for any security reason). To make life easier for Patreon employees who need to do such a boring and unrewarding job, I deleted a bunch of old posts that were no longer relevant.

Now they need to check less stuff and they probably won't find any problems, since I'm an exemplary creator who never breaks any rules.

Game Download: HS Tutor 0.8.1 (PC, MAC, Android)

Android version + HS Tutor 0.8.1 in a few hours

Hello guys!

I'm going to sleep some hours now and then I'll make available the download links of the new version of HS Tutor with an extra scene, in addition to the Android version.

I took a little longer than I should in this version, I wanted to do it in four days (making it available on the 6th), but I ended up delaying it until the 10th. I noticed that I am taking too long to do the new HS Tutor scenes , so it will be good to switch to Solvalley a little bit and work a lot fas...

Writing about some things while I'm uploading the files...

Hello!

I'll write about some topics here while I'm uploading HS Tutor 0.8.0.

Quarantine

I work from home, so this problem that plagued the whole world did not affect me. On the contrary, now I have even more time to dedicate myself to my games.

I hope none of you are in trouble. I know that a lot of people are not able to work and that is why keeping superfluous costs like pledges on sites like Patreon is not a priority right now. Don't be a...

3. the Android version will take a few more days because I will make it available along with a patch with an extra scene

I am still fixing some small things, soon I will upload it and write something about the new version and plan...
