The Chopping Block

Together we have all cultivated a community that thrived and flourished for over a decade. Our forest has been burning for a while now, and that fire is finally reaching my little corner of  this wonderful grove. 

I am so sorry to inform everyone that I will no longer be able to work on, feature, or otherwise associate with The Rose Garden trilogy here on Patreon. That includes A Petal Among Thorns, A Moment of Bliss, and Over the Moon. 

I will officially only be wo...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 02/25/2024

I'm going to save the studio scene for Chapter 3. Gymbrats is almost done.

I'm going to try to keep this progress report a little shorter. I spent way too much time trying to setup gymbrats and it took most of last week. Here's what we got.

It is incredible how much time it can take to design a room, pick out outfits, and setup the lighting. Ugh. But it all looks great.

Progress Report | The Judas Ghost - 02/22/2024

The progress report looks wimpy, but I have a lot of good news. Newintimates and Kamasutra are all rendered. I just have to write the scenes now, which can take a few days. These are huge scenes, and I didn't expect to put this much effort into them. It's two scenes, but they're divided up into 3 pieces each. You'll get more intimate with Sienna as you unlock the later versions of each scene. 

We're going to start wrapping things up to get a release out to you guys. I'm going to fi...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 02/12/2024

We're closing in on the halfway mark. We'll probably be a little past halfway moving into next month. Midnighthour, thestudio, gymbrats, attraction, and oldtimes are all centered around Moon. We'll finally be spending some quality time with her. 

Freebie is just a little bonus scene where we'll get to interact with Jenny the Pizza Girl again. It's not a long scene, but it does push things ...

Progress Report | The Judas Ghost - 02/08/2024

I had minor surgery on the 1st of February. I didn't think it was going to be a big deal, but it ended up putting me on my ass for several days. I'm actually still on the mend.

Despite spending a few days healing, I was still able to work on both Sienna and Gemma. I'm going to push the vibeprize scene into Chapter 2 because it makes more sense there. Sienna's newintimates and kamasutra won't take too much longer to put together, and then pantythief is started but needs about 40 more ren...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 01/29/2024

Progress is moving a little slow. Like I said before, The Judas Ghost is my priority while I'm hemorrhaging money because it has potential to be put onto platforms where I can sell the game. 

However, I've been working hard on bodyguard. I got a little burned out on that scene and started doing some work on freebie, which will be a scene with Jenny. My goal is going to be to finish up both of those these coming weeks, and move onto Moon's content.

Progress Report | The Judas Ghost - 01/25/2024

Minerva's Chapter One content is complete, Cindy's Chapter One content is complete. That means we just have Sienna, Gemma, and Judy left, and I've already gotten some content done for all of them. 

I'm working on Sienna's content now. Riam and I are going to try to do something unique with her path. Because she enjoys exploring both the mansion and her sexuality, we're going to try to play on that. I don't know how this is actually going to go, but let me lay out what we're current...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 01/15/2024

I want to talk about the custom renders first. I didn't realize how popular Sin was. It seems like half the comments are requesting I do more with her. Do you guys want to see her make an appearance in Over the Moon? 

I'm going to try to do a few of the requested renders that you guys commented. Many of them I can't do for various reasons, but the ones I can that aren't too complex I'll attempt. 

The third scene in Over the Moon took an insane amount of setup. I had to p...

Custom Render - Plucking from the Comments

I want to hear what you, my generous supporters, want to see from my custom renders. Whatever ideas you have, whatever you want to see, put it down in the comments and I'm going to pluck something from there to make a custom renders. 

To help you guys narrow it down;

1. Pick a character from my works.

2. Pick a theme. (Example: Super Hero, Lingerie, Gamer Girl)

That's pretty much all I need to make something interesting, but you can be more specific if you want. 2024-01-13 22:06:55 +0000 UTC View Post

Progress Report | The Judas Ghost - 01/11/2024

This is going to be a long report. I'll put a summary at the end so you can read that if you just want a broad overview.

Riam Mar is now doing the coding for The Judas Ghost. He's made great strides in overhauling the game and polishing it up. It will look a lot different, and play a lot differently, in the next release. 

One major change is going to be the mechanics for each girl. There will be a different system for every character.

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 01/01/2024

The last two weeks I've been overwhelmed by family members visiting. I got to spend time with my cousin who I rarely see, my sister came in for a full two weeks, and my other sister visited. We technically had Christmas twice. It's been nuts.

Suffice to say I haven't had a lot of time for work. I did get about fifty renders done and some writing complete, so there was some progress. Moving into the new year, I'll be getting back on my normal schedule. Now for the good news.

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 12/18/2023

I've actually made good progress this week. I didn't have a lot else to do so I spent a lot more time working than I thought I would. The second scene is basically like four different scenes all mashed together so it's going to take a little more time than most. It's going to be the Madds Medusa scene. 

There is so much fun stuff coming up in this chapter. I'm psyched to work on it. I know I'm supposed to be on vacation this month, but writing this kind of is a vacation for me. Do ...

Update + Custom Render Poll

Jenny, as expected, is definitely going to get more content. Don't worry, it's not going to detract from anything else. If it takes an extra bit of time to make more content to include Jenny, that's not such a bad thing. It'll be nice to have some extra juicy content. 

As for Madds, I'm going to add a little in but I'm going to go easy on it and try to integrate it so it's not its own story but instead is actually part of OtM. That'll make more sense when you play the next release....

Progress and Poll - 12/11/2023

I've started on Over the Moon Chapter 2. The reception for the first release has been exceptional. The most common complaint is that it was a little short, and it certainly was. Now that the foundation is laid, we'll see a lot more content in each release. I've plotted out Chapter 2 and written the first scene.

There's a lot for me to say in this progress report. Bear with me here.

Release! | Over the Moon - Chapter One

Here it is! The first release of the last game in the Rose Garden trilogy. I played through it several times. I'm very proud of how it turned out. This is mostly an introduction to the new characters and the foundation for the rest of the story to be built on. 

I've already written a general outline for Chapter 2. It's going to be have a lot more content stuffed into it. This initial build isn't huge, but first builds are always the toughest so a considerable amount of time was jus...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 12/04/2023

Chapter 1 is complete. There's some minor polish I'm doing on the VARGs system, then it's off to Beta testing. I'll have it out to you guys sometime this week. 

I'm actually excited about Chapter 2. I've got a lot of great ideas. I'm going to start putting together a general plot outline this week.

Please let me know what you think of Jenny when you meet her. She's a tentative addition to the story. If everyone likes her, I'll do a few more scenes with her in the following ch...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 11/27/2023

Thirty more renders are complete, and we're moving onto the final stage of the scene. This is where the animations come in. I'll be working on those this coming week. 

Last week I had family in so progress was difficult to make. I was able to get quite a bit done though. I need to have this all finished before the second half of December because we'll be rolling into another holiday. I'm still aiming for an early December release.

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 11/19/2023

Bignews is 40 renders and 350 lines of code long so far, which already makes it the biggest scene in Chapter 1. It's about half way done. I had an idea for it that may or may not be to everyone's liking, but I think it's pretty sexy so I'm putting it in. We'll call this an experimental scene, and we'll see how everyone responds to it. 

If I hadn't mentioned it before, Bignews is a naughty ...

A Petal Among Thorns - Hotfix!

There were some minor issues with the release. There always are! So I've done some fixes and adjustments to make the game just a little bit better. Thank you to all the people who pointed out the errors! You've made A Petal Among Thorns even better.

- A lot of missing spaces were added.

- Quite a few misspelled words were corrected.

- An inconsistent error where clicking 'Next' in the gallery would crash the game was fixed.

- One image showed three Macarons on Petal's ...

Progress Report | Over the Moon - 11/13/2023

One scene left! It's going to be a big scene. I'm hoping to have it finished before the end of the month, but I didn't expect the APAT Remaster to take so much of my time. 

The APAT Remaster had quite a few errors. I'm working to correct those errors, and then we'll see a final release of APAT Remaster. Sorry about the bugs. Some of them cropped up after I did a full playthrough. I swear, technology just likes to crap all over me sometimes.

Progress Report | A Petal Among Thorns Remaster - 11/02/2023

I'm halfway through reviewing Chapter 4. After carefully reading through APAT, I did notice a lot of issues with the script. I can see now that Chester's reservations does drag on for too long, and it does get a little annoying. I'm not going to do any major re-writes though, so that's just going to be how it is. 

However, I have been removing a ton of 'And's. I start sentences with 'And' all the time. I did not realize I was doing that. I'm cleaning that up, and adding little thin...
