Dev Notes - 2025-08-24 - Improving Skills

Hi everyone, so I know I have not posted for a bit. I had a week long vacation with family and work has been nuts. What I have been doing though is working on improving my rendering and general capabilities.

I think some of the issues I am dealing with are from me being self-taught and not giving myself some time to learn certain things properly. One of the members here sent me a really nice message with some teriffic ideas on how to up my game, especially with the dark images issues. ...

Dev Notes - 2025-08-07 - Let there be more light!

So, one of the main bits of feedback was that the dinner scenes were way too dark. To remedy this I had to pick a better lighting scheme and I think it is imporved. There are about 40 renders that I needed to change the light settings and re-render, but opening each of those files and manually changing the lights was taking forever. So, I wrote a script to do it. The first image is the brighter version, the second the darker one. These images have not been denoised yet.

If you have any ...

Dev Notes - 2025-07-28 - Fix this, new that...

Hi everyone, so since the last update, my work has been focusing on some fo the feedback as well as finishing the party convo options (which are mostly done, rendering now and will do a play through to see if I need any more scenes).

One of the bits of feedback I got was that people (I believe Divya) are looking red. It's something with the default bar lighting in the party scene, so I am leaving it for now, or I would have to re-render every scene, otherwise the scenes with Divya would...

Dev Notes - 2025-07-20 - Feedback on Game

So, one of the great things about releasing the game to the public is the amount of feedback I get is insane!

There was feedback about inconsistincies throughout the game, about some encounters the players didn't want to encounter if they turned of trans, the fast Track menu was hard to tell where they ended, lighting of the reasturaunt, and a lot of people wanting to be able to top or do things with some of the characters that were supposed to be options.

With that feedback, I ha...

Vote - Story vs. Sex scenes

How do you feel about the balance between story and sex scenes?

Vote - Sound Effects

For the shower scene in the yoga studio, I used some sound effects. Did you want more of that, don't want any sound effects, or don't care?

v0.1.7 now available for all members!

For our US folks, hope you are enjoying the 4th of July weekend! The game is now available for all members. You will find the link in the pinned post above.

Dev Notes - 2025-06-30 - Back to it!

Hi Everyone, so with v0.1.7 making it's way through the sponsors (4th of July weekend will give out public access)I have started work on finsihing up all the branches that have been started. So now I am back at the company party adding some conversations and shenanigans. First focus is giving options for Xhiang, April and Andi. Nothing huge, jsut some options that will impact relation down the road as other characters become romance options. After that, moving on to Divya and Kelly, then the ...

Release v0.1.7 for Senior Directors

Hello Everyone!

Sorry about no DevNotes recently but I have better news. Version 0.1.7 is now available for senior directors!

The current version continues from Yoga and shower scene to a dinner date with fun time afterwards. That path is only enabled for Chrissy at this time, though both Soumya and Joe are ready to go for the dinner part, I need to render their parts for fun time.

A new feature I added was the ability to use the Fast Track to skip to the most relevant secti...

Link to v0.1.7!

Vote - Finish updates or expand story

The coming update is going to have missing options related to Soumya and Joseph, as I have only done the scenes for Chrissy. Also if you recall from the party, not all conversations were completed.

Question: Would you rather I finish the previous branches of options with other characters, or rather I progress the overall story and come back to branches later?

Dev Notes - 2025-06-02 - End in sight!

Hello Everyone,

So, I am extremely close to finishing up. I have an animation of a different camera view, so I want to add a UI to switch between the views and have that as a foundation for new animations (should be quick, pretty much the same thing I have for the x-ray vision feature). I think I have a few more static renders to round out the release. It has been a lot of playing through the new section of the story several times, cleaning up renders, making a few new ones, etc. Also h...

Dev Notes - 2025-05-21 - Back from boat!

Hey folks, so I know I vanished there. I tried to get a release out before I went on a cruise but it did not happen. I did a playthrough of the game and I simply did not like the quality. It needs another 20 some renders at least just to smooth out the scene transitions. It was too jerky and not in a good way.

The benefit is I feel a lot more energized now and even some inspiration from it (i did have a few massages and that did get the blood flowing). I don't think I realized how stret...

Dev Notes - 2025-05-04 - New animation, done!

Hey folks, I was happy to finish an animation. I purchased one but often the appendages end up flailing all over the place. So, i did some research and got a product called LimbStick which allows me to essentially glue certain parts to other parts, so they don't move around during animations. It worked brilliantly! Unfortunately, it took me the best part of the week to install it because the automation installation does not work. Just, it can never be a slam dunk. Regardless, this is another ...

Dev Notes - 2025-04-27 - All of the Lights!

Hey everyone, so really starting to feel good about this recent batch. I really like how the lighting has turned out.

The animation is pretty much the last thing that needs to be done. So you all know, it is going to be a bit hot an heavy with Chrissy as the top and a little bit on the dom side, so if that is not your thing, you may not want to play the first version. I would like to get feedback and see how people feel about it. I guess I was just in a particular mood.

I have the...

Dev Notes - 2025-04-21 - Progress on Chrissy Branch!

So, Filmflix and Chill progress is going well with the Chrissy scenes! I will be starting the animation soon, as I know that will take a couple of days for it to render. Been having a few issues with the simulation of this dFroce shirt that Chrissy (and Soumya) are wearing for the date. Nothing as a blocker, just some time it simulates weird, or just takes some time to do so.

I hope everyone had a terrific Easter. I decided to spend my time working on the game rather than doing an Easte...

Dev Notes - 2025-04-13 - Progress!

Hi folks!

Scenes are coming together. I have been playing around with better lighting night scenes by using blue light sources. I think it looks a lot better than my previous quite dark images. I may need to brighten it further actually, now that I noticed what it looks like posted on a website. Would love to get your feedback on the lighting.

It has been nice to finally get to the last scenes of the update and what will essentially be or close to v0.2, which I want to be the comp...

Dev Notes - 2025-04-07 - Now Mouth Pain

So, first off, this last Saturday was super productive. I spent pretty much the entire day (and a good part of Sunday) rendering in Daz and writing script in Renpy. All the story is complete from the yoga scene to the Filmflix and Chill scene to come, with some of those renders complete as well. I also updated the 'skipping' feature, which is now called 'Fast Track'. I feel like I got a real surge of energy to work on the game.

Then, Sunday night, my mouth started hurting to the point t...

Dev Notes - 2025-03-16 - Norovirus and Skipping

Well, the house got norovirus again. It hit me and my wife a bit harder this time and we had to take our youngest to the ER. Everyones fine, its just norovirus, but we were hoping for a relaxing weekend and got none of it.

The skipping code seems to be doing really well and a lot of the clunky code I had before is gone. So that now, if variables are changed, you can just bounce to the section and answer a minimal amount of questions to get there.

I need to write another bit of cod...

Dev Notes - 2025-03-02 - Clean Up and New Branch

Hi everyone, so the plague is completely over and I am feeling terrific now. It is tax season, so I had to hand all my receipts and everything for bookeeping. That took a little of my time but it also helped me get a good understanding of my financial standing with this project. Essentially, breaking even.

I pulled out the guts of my 'commute' code and wrote the overall script to be a bit more linear. Also removing some decisions that really do not impact anything, renaming a few variab...

Dev Notes - 2025-02-17 - Bugs and Stomach Bugs

So, an anooying issue popped up with the game where, at least when I am running it on my end in developer mode, there is a really long white screen at the start. I thought I fixed it with some help but it is persisting. The issue seems fixed for builds, but it is slowing the development process.

Also, trying to fix the MC name persistence issue. I basically stripped more code and just hard coded the MC name instead of trying to put the input name into the character person objects, which...

Happy Valentines Day, Patrons!

Chrissy and Soumya after the party.

Happy Valentines Day

So, a kiddo in my family got sick, so I didn't end up going on the cruise vacation, so now I am at home working and praying I do not get what the kids got.

But, benefit for you all: made some Valentines Day customs which the Patrons will have access. Imagining if Chrissy and Soumya went home after the party.

Hope you enjoy, now I am back to working on the main product!

Release for Patrons - v0.1.6.1

Hey supporting patrons, here is an early release as a thank you before I go on vacation. A couple of notes, the game loads a little slow in the beginning. I need to figure out what is going on there, I think it is a load of the animations (probably need a load screen). Also, I know some people have reported on F95 and other places that the saves aren't working correctly. This is something I will fix (I think I have to turn all the variables into persitent variables).

The primary differe...

Dev Notes - 2025-02-09 - Sick

Hi everyone, apologies, I have been sick for like a week and a half trying to fight this awful illness. I am still coughing a lot trying to dislodge the rest of what I am guessing is a respiratory infection. I was out of work for a week and then the days I could work I was so exhausted I could not do anything but go to sleep.

I am back to working on the script with pretty much all the renders I have made now have script connecting them to the game. Wednesday is my last day before vacati...

Dev Notes - 2025-01-26

Hey folks, so we have like 60 some renders and I also decided to try out sound effects for the shower scene. I will add a warning to everyone to let them know that sound effects are starting for the new scene.

It took me a long time to write all the code and narrative for these scenes, stitch everything together, and I added the two sets of animations.

I am hoping to hit about 100 scenes or so near the end of the month, early Feb. I have another vacation coming up mid Feb, so I wa...

Dev Notes - 2025-01-20 - 50 frames and more

Hi all, so a busy week pushing to get to 150 frames by the end of the month, managing to get to 50. I added a stop at a steakhouse for dinner where I have been practicing lighting and got a new tool for Daz that allows me to edit all light emitting objects from one menu. If you use Daz, you likely know how painful it is to drill down to each object and modify its parameters.

Also, have people had issues with save files not remembering the right choice you made? I am wondering if I am su...

Dev Notes - 2025-01-12 - Progress!

Been getting some work done. Done with the scenes I wanted to add for the yoga location. I tried starting a different location, but it had some genesis 3 assets that I ran into issues with, so I am skipping that for now. Moved on to MC's apartment, where we will end the week. These options will exist for all three LI options.

This location and any improvements to the rest of the game I think I am just going to wrap up as version 0.2, unless I think of some really interesting story to pu...
