Happy new year, everyone! Here's to another amazing year! I was supposed to write this yesterday, but was too caught up preparing for the new year and drinking the night away, then slept like a log for 12 hours, lol.
To all the people who've played the update already, I hope you all enjoyed it. I'd love to hear your feedback if you have time. And to the people that haven't yet, I'm very excited for you all to experience it.
I'll be taking a short 1-2 week break from the game. I've had a little too much fun working on it this past year that I realized I barely took any time to take a breather. So after the break, I can jump right back in again, fresh, excited, and 100% fully recharged!
And finally, a heartfelt thank you to all my supporters for making this all possible. I wouldn't be here without you.

Just a quick heads up, I need to say that since we did a complete overhaul of the UI, I'm sad to say that previous saves will not work from 0.1 will not work. I recommend starting over a new save. Better to do this early than later on but I apologize in advance.
And a message to my paying supporters, You all are the real MVPs here. I apologize if it took this long to release an update especially since it's still at 0.1. I could have cut this update in half to give you an update sooner, and it might have benefited me more that way. But I feel like it won't be as emotionally impactful if I released it that way. I'm really just a guy that wants to give you the best experience possible. You guys are the first people to believe in this project, so once again, I just want to say thank you.
And one thing for sure is, I am excited for you all to read it. I'm very happy on how it turned out, and I hope you all enjoy it just as I did making it :) .
I hope you all had an amazing weekend, and cheers to the holidays!
Since the game is pretty much done outside of sfx and bgms, I would like to add all of your names in the credits scene at the end of chapter 2. You all have played a HUGE part in making this possible.
I'm making this post as there might be some of you here that would not want your name listed or shown in the credits. If so, please send me a dm either via the community chat, patron DM, or Discord DM so I can exclude your name .
Hope you all had a nice November. Did you last NNN? Me? Working on an AVN didn't help me one bit sadly lol. Jokes aside, time for the bi-monthly devlog.
I am happy to tell all of you that chapter 2 has finally been completed. All the script and images have all been coded into Ren'Py. If you want to see how big it is, see below:
- 42.1k words - 1.6k images - 22 Animations - Bloody 10k lines of code...
Uhh... Yeah... I added moar...
As for the features I was planning to implement in the game: - Named saves = Check - Character bio = Check - A better UI = Check - Scene gallery = Check
My workplan for this December will be to add bgms and sfx to the game, while giving GreenScheme the proper time he needs to proofread and edit the script. ( Last time I pushed him to do the entire chapter 1 in a span of a week and a half and... Well... ).
Image above is a little preview of what the new UI looks like. Credits to Pax.
I will announce the release dates on my next and final devlog for chapter 2 on the 15th of December.
And finally, a heartfelt thank you to you all for making this all possible. I wouldn't be here without you.
LopaPhi here. Here to give you a short teaser for what's to come in Chapter 2. I've mentioned on my previous devlog that I'm aiming to finish the chapter 100% before December. And well, as of writing this, I'm actually around 95% done. The script is finished and already coded into Ren'py. I just need to finish rendering the last couple of scenes, and it'll be completed.
That said, it still lacks a lot of things, like the sound effects, UI, Main Menu and bgm's. I'll be spending the entirety of the remaining time until release working on that, while GreenScheme will be out there editing and proofreading the entire thing. To give you an idea of how big Chapter 2 is, see below:
41k Words 1500+ Images 22 Animations
The game will be released before the year ends. Once finalized, I'll be sure to announce the date.
Once again, thank you all for being here. The chapter coming out this early wouldn't have been possible if the game didn't get this much support. I'm really still in disbelief even now. Thank you for believing in this project, and I hope you'll all enjoy the chapter once it comes out.
Time for another one of my bimonthly devlogs. Apologies if it's a little late. I've been roped into doing a lot of things at work, such as preparing for the Halloween party in the office. Literally just god off from there. In any case, here's the report:
33.5k words 1340 images 19 animations
You might think that there wasn't much increase in progress from my previous dev log. To answer that question, that'd be yes. However, that doesn't mean I stopped working on it. While in the middle of working on the game, I changed the sequence of events midway than what I originally planned for chapter 2. Something that made more sense. And something that's just better and more impactful in the story. But in return, I had to go back and change the already coded dialogues and script and even scrap some scenes to do so and replace them with the new scenes I had in mind, which I did. And looking at it now, I think the story flows a lot better. In total, I think I at least scrapped around 250 worth of images and 3k worth of text...
The good news is, the game is now 80% done. All the spicy scenes for chapter 2 have been completed, including the script. My plan now would be to reach 100% before November ends, giving enough time for the game to be proofread and edited and for me to add BGM and SFX before release.
That's all for now. Here's to another good month for all of us. And once again, thank you all for being here. I really, really appreciate it.
As always, if you have any questions, by all means, feel free to shoot me a message.
Time for my bimonthly devlog update to you guys. Just going to keep it brief, as there's not much to say. But I was able to make a lot of progress since my previous devlog.
- Chapter 2 now currently has a whopping 32.3k words. And there's still a bit more left before it's completed. - 1290 images. - 18 animations.
I'm actually in the middle of finishing up the 3rd major scene for this chapter. Once done, the chapter should be 80% completed.
By the way! I just wanted to share that I actually won a prize from Jonh Novel's community. He said I got the most votes among a lot of novels. That really made my day.
Also, I was able to talk to someone that could further improve the game's main menu and UI. He's the same guy who's also done Cosy Cafe and Eternum's new UI on their next update. I've gone and hired him as well, so I can leave that part to him and just focus purely on writing, animating, and rendering instead.
Lastly, thanks to Taka for commissioning the stickers used in my Discord. They look amazing. GreenScheme for proofreading and edits, and of course, all of you supporting me right now. If it wasn't for you guys believing in me this much, I'd probably still be only around the 40% mark right about now. One thing I can tell you is that I'm already excited for you guys to see what I've been cooking for this chapter, so just bear the wait a little more.
That's it for now. I hope you all enjoy your week. And once again, thank you all for being here. I really, really appreciate it.
As always, if you have any questions, by all means, feel free to shoot me a message.
Time for my Bi-Monthly Devlog. Apologies if it's a little late. Just had to finish one scene before I post this so you'll have the complete report. I was aiming for 70% completion before the month ends, and I did it! Somehow...
I'm happy to tell you all that the chapter is 70% done with images and dialogue already coded into Ren'Py!
In any case, time for the stats! There's been a HUGE jump of progress compared to my last progress report:
25.7k words
1025 images
13 animations
To those who are following in my Discord, I mentioned that the last 30% are the ones that are going to take a lot of work and effort to complete. I want to make sure I'm able to focus on those before October comes. Late December will still be my planned release.
Sending you an in-game pic you'll see in chapter 2. Someone decided to come and say "Hi".
That's it for now. I hope you all enjoy your week. And once again, thank you all for being here. I really, really appreciate it.
If you have any questions, by all means, feel free to shoot me a message.
I'm here to send you the second batch of Sneak Peeks for chapter 2 . I've selected ones that are not too spoilery, but should give you an idea as to what to expect for this chapter.
Also, what do you think of the renders? I think they're a lot more smoother compared to chapter 1 while at the same time, still staying true to my original style. This is due to me slightly reducing the sharpness a bit. I'd love to hear your feedback on them.
Just giving you a quick update about the game. And I'm happy to all tell you that it's all good news. I'm still trying to aim for 70% completion by the end of September. It's pretty crazy, I know, but it pushes me to work harder knowing I need to hit a deadline (just me being a corporate slave, lol).
I am proud to say that chapter 2 is now officially 50% done with script, images, and animations already coded in Ren'py. Do you guys remember when I said I prefer checking out major scenes rather than percentages? Well, this marks 2 out of 4 completed. Below are the current stats:
19k words
710 images
10 new animations
Still quite a way to go, but we're getting there. As I mentioned, chapter 2 should be the same length as chapter 1.
Lastly, I've opened this post to the public to announce that Russian translation has been added to the game along with a Chinese translation fix. Credits to both Fa1con Eye and Dr.Hu (and Tian for the Spanish), as they've been very kind enough to provide high-quality translations for me. The game should be updated with them in itch.io.
That is all. I hope everyone enjoyed/is enjoying their weekend. And once again, thank you all for being here. I really, really appreciate it.
If you have any questions, by all means, feel free to shoot me a message.
Dropping in for a quick progress report. for chapter 2. Development is progressing quite well, without any major issues. I was able to add a hundred more renders from my previous devlog. Still a little further away from the goal, but we're getting there. I slowed down a bit this week due to a busy work schedule as well as helping my mom with her paperworks for her to go to Japan. She's there now so that's taken care of.
We're sitting at around a total of 500 renders right now, 9 new animations (These animations are a total of 4 minutes combined), and a total of 12k words for chapter 2. My plan for September is to work a huge chunk of it and hopefully be around 70% complete by the end of the month.
Let me give you a hint about the theme for Chapter 2. It will feature both "Lowest" and "Highest". Take that as you will ;).
Thank you for supporting this project. I feel very lucky to have all of you already here with me this early on in the development, and I'm truly grateful.
I'll do bi-weekly progress reports updates here.
If you have any questions, by all means, please shoot me a DM. Either here or Discord's fine. I'll always reply.
How's it goin'? I'm just dropping by to give all of you here an update on the game. I'm not sure how frequent the dev logs are supposed to be or how frequently you'd like to be updated on the status, so let me know. Weekly? Bi-Weekly? Whenever I want? I'm all ears.
I've already announced in the previous progress report what I plan to add, but let me post it here too so everybody can see. Below are a couple features I'm planning to implement in the game:
Named saves
Character screen/bio as well as to show the current points and relationship you have with the girls.
A better main menu (animated)
Scene gallery
Also, fix every typo and grammar error in Chapter 1. If there are any more features you'd like to see aside from the ones above, let me know. I'm open to ideas. (both on Discord and here).
With that out of the way, next is the progress status of Chapter 2 so far:
410 renders
8 animations
2.3K lines of code
As soon as I released the first chapter, I immediately jumped to work on chapter 2. And in case you guys think I'm going to burn out at this pace, I assure you I won't. To be honest, I didn't even think I'd get this much supporters this quick considering it's only been a month and a half since the game released. I'm enjoying every minute of this, and this is my way of giving back.
I've just finished the first "spicy scene" for this chapter (guess who) and just need to add a few more words to the script. After that, I can say the progress is pretty much 30% done. I'm really excited for you guys to see it. The loop animations are no less than 30 seconds, and one of them even lasts an entire minute before it loops again. I hope you'll all enjoy it once it's public.
For progress or status, I prefer to check them out as major scenes rather than percentages. Chapter 2 will consist of four major scenes. This checks out one of them, so I'll be working on three more.
My decision on how I'd like to release Chapter 2 is that I'd like to release it as a whole and not just the first part of it. But at the same time, I want to release something this year, so I'm challenging myself to finish it before the year ends. So I've decided that, in case I can't finish the entire chapter before 2025, I'll release the first half first. Then you just need to wait just a little more for the second half.
Lastly, I was able to finally upgrade my PC (I was using a toaster before). Now I can further improve the graphics and renders. I think it's looking a lot smoother compared to the previous chapter, right? (See the image above.) ... Right..?
That is all for now. Thank you for reading and for your support. I hope you all have a wonderful week ahead!
