New smile

Hi! 

Whoops, it's been a while since my last post... Ah...  Some migth even thought that I'm  not working on the game. Don't worry, as usual when I'm not active on page I'm probably busy thinking/drawing/writing new scenes/costumes...But In upoming days I'll post quite a few questions about the game. Of course if I won't be absorbed by game related stuff.

Okay, what I've been up to since last time? Well, mostly I've been fixing reported bugs, adding n...

OCTOBER public release.

Hi! 

Today I released October version to the public. Thanks to testers and patreons I successfully (I hope) got rid of most bugs. Also I reworked standing picture system. Now, as requested to see it you have to press W. To hide it press W again. I'm just hoping it won't create new problems.

Also, as you can see I added two new posts with links to the current version. One for public and one for patreons. Now they are the same, but I'll always put there newest links, so if you wan...

Small update

Hi! 

I fixed few things, two game-breaking error and now we should be fine. 

And I managed to reduce number of version to two. One with boys sprites, and one without. In the settings (on the third tower floor) there is an option to chose if you have started new game, or loaded from April version. If you loaded from April version you don't have to do anything. If you are starting new game you don't have to do anything either. But if you have started your game yesterday then you ...

Ver. 11OCT2016 is out!

Hi!

Finally new version is ready. It took me more time than I expected and I''m really angry at myself because of that. Especially last month and bugs which always popped out in the least expected moment. But I hope it was worth to wait so long. Now I'm going to try out releasing more frequent smaller updates. We'll see how it go. 

This update is compatible with old saves from March/April version. And the most annoying bug is gone. Loading game no longer takes ages! Also there i...

BETA #3

Hi.

I somehow managed to fix this annoying bug. To be honest I had to redone some stuff but saves from March/April version are compatible again. I started second beta testing so you can expect news soon. 

Nerion

Delay

Hi.

There's good and bad news. 

Good news: I fixed all reported bugs and tweaked few things. 

Bad news: Well, not all bugs. There is one pesky bug that is preventing me from starting beta testing 2. Well, everything is okay if you are playing from the beginning but if you are loading save from previous version at some point you get stuck. I could release new version without backward compatibility but I know how important it is to be able load old save. I've spent whole we...

Beta test #2

I just wanted say thank you to everyone who volunteered to be a beta tester. I didn't really expected that so many of you respond. I've picked few people and sent them game. When I fix bugs found by them then I'll sent fixed ver to next few people and then I'll finally release it. 

And as always at the start I made a few embarrassing oversights. For example you can't start the game, only load old save or I left a guy I used for testing in Ravy's room. Let's hope something like that won't ...

Beta testing

Hi, I just want let you know that I'm starting beta testing the game. I need few more people so if you're interested send me PM. And well, All this means that this version will be released soon.

Plans for coming days

Hi!

I finally finished adding new stuff to the game and now I started first bug-test play-through. Well, you may think that playing the game is not that bad but in reality it's more like: 5 minutes of playing - encountering bug - few hours of trying to fix it. At least when the bug is really pesky and annoying. 

On Monday I'll sent game text to Kaosfear and he will spell and grammar check it for me. Then, when he's done I'll ask few of you to be a beta testers and few days later I'l...

Quick info

Hi.

I just wanted to let you know that I'm working on game a lot. Recently I finished a quest which unlocks a new city. Sadly this city will not be available in upcoming version, but I have planned a lot of fun stuff to do there.

 As I said in previous post I want to start bugtesting/spell check with the end of the month and there is still plenty of things to be done.  I'll let you know when I start testing, but for now I'll be quiet.

Release date

Hi! 

First of all I wanted to thank you for your support. It really helps out. It might not look like I'm paying enough attention to you immediately, but I read every comment  soon  after it is published and then I think what should I reply. It sometimes takes days. It's my bad habit, sorry.

Working on this version took me a loot more time then I expected and I'm really angry at myself for that. I think it is high time to set release date (well, kind of). 

Okay,...

Sundress

Hi!

I finished Thomlin's event and it looks like in this update he'll get a lot less stuff than Aldis. On the other hand maybe I should spend more time on him?

Poll

I've also finished drawing new dress for Ravy. Short,  swift sundress in few light color variations.  It may slide off accidentally (or not).  Despite the fact it is rather simple design I think Ravy could have a lot of fun in this dress. What d...

Big quest finished!

Hi! Few days ago I finally finished big quest with 2 cg, which one you already seen.  There are two  possible outcomes, which can greatly change Ravy's interactions with other people. In other words  depending on player choices she can finally go all out.  I don't want to spoil anything so this is it for now about this quest.

Now I'm wondering.... Should I focus on Thomlin/Forest village quest, or maybe this is time for a Dog quest?

What I'm working right now.

Hi there. 

In last poll you've decided that I should stick to working on game (75%), not on writhing posts here, but two of you suggested that really simple quick post with pic every now and then would be nice. And here it is. I'll try to upload something like this more frequently from now on, if it is okay.

And this is the picture from an event that I'm currently working on. Go ahead and guess who will be 'working' on Ravy here. And what will happen next.

Send me your save files.

Hi! 

Right now I'm working on new events, and tweaking old ones and I need your help. I need your save files to see how many corruption points you've got to balance better new events. Please send me your save file with little description on what you've done it certain play through. Don't send me file in which you've done every event since I know total amount of points. I need just a few save files. 

New clothes for Ravy are almost ready I'll show it to you in the near f...

New clothes!

Hello!

Some time ago we have reached third milestone goal. I'm really grateful for your support guys, and I've never though that there will be so much positive feedback. Really, thank you and I hope new version will live up to expectations. 

Okay, so I want to discuss new clothes for Ravy. And this time I'm not talking about quest specific outfits but clothes that she can wear everywhere. And I thought that you might have some nice ideas for new skirt/shirt/shorts or what ev...

Outfits

Hi!

Today I want to show you new clothes for Ravy. As you can see it's standard maid outfit which I want to use in just one side quest. She will be able to wear this outfit only when doing this quest and there will be 2-3 other pictures with Ravy wearing it. Tell me what do you think about it? And what do you think about outfits for special occasions like this? Do you want more? Or should I just focus on regular clothes? Oh, and don't worry, we will discuss her ne...

Question Time!

Hi!

It's been a while since the release of April version, most of you probably finished playing it and had enough time to form an opinion. So now I have few question for you. Depending on your answers I'll know on what I should focus more, what you liked, disliked and so on.

Okay, first question: 

1. Which h-event style you like the most?

-Thomlin in the forest (non-linear)

-Trader Rep in his office (many choices)

-Bar punks bad ending (li...

Ver. 1April2016 is out!

Hi,

I would like to thank all of you for your continuing support.  It was rough but finally new version is ready.  As always big thanks to kaosfear, who fixed grammar. It's enormous help!

Okay, what's new, you ask? Well, as always I won't tell you straight away. There are several big and little events. Some of them are harder to get than the others, but during the bug testing one person managed to get everything without any help, so it's possible. I'll po...

New version is ready!

That's right! Finally! I'll release it very soon, just have to test it one last time. Everything probably is fine but it always better to check twice.

If someone want to help me with testing just send me PM.

Progress

Hi!

Last few days wasn't too easy on me.  My hard drive broke and I spent two days on recovering data. Fortunately I recovered it, otherwise I would lost few days of progress on the game. I finished all quest but one. And I have to finish one more cg.  I'm hoping to do this in few days.  Then I need to spend few more days on bughunting and a week or two on proofreading. After all that I will finally release new version! 

So be patient for just a bit more.

News

Hi!

I've been working a lot on game recently and it looks like next version should be ready in late February/early March.  Then I will have to do serious bug fixing and then I will release it to you guys.  Finally there will be more interesting events and even one ending. Hope you will like it.

Thank you guys for voting in previous poll. This time poll won't be about game content. I'm just curious how did you find my game? There are  threads on ulmf and hongfire fo...

About H events

Hi!

We have reached second milestone goal. Thank you guys so much.  I don't really know what should I write right now to let you know how thankful I am. Well, let's get down to business then. 

From now on I will be running polls frequently but not regularly. Hmm, it's not that exciting right? Every one is probably looking forward for third goal right? 

Today I want to ask you about H events. Do you prefer to make multiple choices during event or is it oka...

Backgrounds poll!

Hi guys!

It's been busy week for me but I still managed to draw few pictures. Above you can see one of them. Yeah, I didn't show you much but well, the rest of the picture might be  too...  how to put it... well, you know.  

I'm gonna go ahead and run the  first  poll. My question is what do you think about backgrounds? For example in the picture above I've created very simple background. It took me few minutes. I probably could spent few hours on it and it w...

Small changes

Hi guys!

I'm working already on next version but most of the time I'm fixing bugs. Few people offered me help in finding them and I want to thank them here. I will have to post credit list soon, but dang... It will be a messy list. Tell me what do you think about the dog.

Nerion.

Walktrough

I think it's high time to post walk-trough. I wanted to do it sooner but somehow Patreon was acting up. I will split walk-trough in two parts. In first I will just give you hints and in the second one I will write exactly what you have to do. Okay, let's go.

Hints:

-Check out herbalist shop and bar during day and night.

-Old woman in village can help you and she has a lot to tell.

-If you can't find the bear look for the green marks on the ground

-Talk with Marienne...
