From playtesting the game, the end of Chapter 6 is already around 40 hours. With Chapter 7, 8 and 9, as well as all the optional content, I wouldn't be surprised if the game ends up at 50+ hours.

For us to give them access to the Patreon version of the game, supporters who redeemed the gift have to get in touch with us and provide us with proof one by one.
Because of this, we have decided to disable an option to gift a subscription to other members for Kemo Coliseum. Having to provide evidences of the gift puts a burden ...

Since the build you get to access now is much closer to the completion of the main story than what we had when we started, we believe it is time to adjust our minimum support price.
Starting from the 1st of September, minimum paid membership will start at $3 to get the name in the credits, and the tier to get access to Patron-only builds will be at $5.

We're down to just the punishment scene and the final part of Chapter 7 before the writing for this chapter is complete. I've had Chapter 8 on my mind for so long, it's exciting to see it's finally within reach!

Almost done with writing the main story for Chapter 7! The last quest isn't that long, but the ending of the chapter is very important, so it will be tough to work on.
As for the OP animation, while it's finished already, I'm still waiting for the complete version of the opening theme to be finished. It shouldn't be too long now, as it's been recorded already and all that's left is the final audio mixing process...

Hi, everyone. Just want to let everyone know that we will pause billing for this month so you won't be charged this month. Due to personal circumstances, while there is progress to the development, we don't think that it is up to the level where we're comfortable charging our supporters for it.
For now, here's a screenshot of one of the scenes we finished! We'll do our best to get everything back on track next month.

Still working on Chapter 7. I was busy with holidays and family matters, so I didn't have enough time to work on the dungeon like I wanted to. February is a shorter month, but at least I won't be as busy so I can focus on the game.

Working on battle events are tough, since they're not as easy to test as visual novel scenes, so I'm glad I got these out of the way.
It's exciting to think that Chapter 6 will be playable soon (for the developer side, since many things are still placeholders). As stated in the report, I'll put Chapter 6 together next month, then I will continue working on Chapter 7. The battle events in Chapter 7 won't be as co...

The number of downloads for the Android version of the public build is almost as high as the Windows version! I knew there were many people interested in the Android version of the game, but I didn’t realize it was this many. It’s unfortunate that there’s no itch client on Android to keep the Patreon version up to date. For now, we’ll have to limit the Patreon version to just Windows and macOS.
