November Plan

Morning. This will probably be more an update about how things are going then a detailed plan on what I'm doing this month. Settle in, it's a long post.

1) I'll be using a numbered list this time instead of starting paragraphs with "First" or "Secondly".

Secondly, I held a poll in October with the $5 and $10 tier concerning features that will appear in the game. I've had a few things I've talked about in comments, had posted in the about me section, or just stuff that people asked...

Chapter 8 Patreon Release

It's that time again. I hope the teaser screenshots had been fun. Please enjoy the new chapter. Copy and paste the link into the address bar or it will ask for a decryption key. NEW LINKS.

Updated: Nov 9th to give access to the $5 tier.

Release Schedule for Chapter 8

It's been a crazy busy couple of weeks as it seems like everyone wants to get thing done now so December isn't so busy. I trust November will have the same general feel to it.

This month will be the first time the $5 tier will be apart of the early access release schedule. They will be getting it 3 days before the public release.

The schedule will be thus:

$10 tier - Thursday, November 5th

$5 tier - Monday, November 9th

Public - Thursday, November 12th

Ch8 Screenshot #5

The MC, probably realising there was no more room on the screen in group shots for any new characters, sends Angelica away. Better luck in the next game, I guess.

New Character Intro

Ch8 will finally have the introduction of Angelica, someone Cynthia holds in such high regard. Little is known about her at this point but it's safe to say, she's a bit of a cutie.

How could you not?

Ch8 Screenshot #3

When I go through the chapter looking for screenshots, I try to find something that's both intriguing but doesn't spoil anything, leaving the person looking at it with questions. 

In that regard, this image is perfect.

Tickets are going quick. Pick them up now if you don't want to miss the Adorable Celebration.

Hmm... I wonder what adventures Cynthia will have at a place like this...

Even if you're not nervous, you should still hug her

Poll Results - Future Features

Thank you to everyone that voted. Here's the features we'll be working on:

The Side Girl Stories was the clear winner as the most favourite feature. As such, it has won over the playable female MC option as the idea won't work together. Just time and resource wise, it was always going to be one or the other.

This also opens the door for the Additional CG Scene feature as we can now do scenes that include the MC. If you have a specific scene from one of the chapters that...

Future Features for My Catgirl Maid

I had posted about this over the weekend but feel like a poll might be a bit better for this. I'm going to list some of the possible features that could appear in the game and you can vote for the ones you like. I'll then prioritize them when it comes time to start finalizing the game.

Here's the features. You can vote for multiple ones:

1) Playable Female MC - Basically giving the chance to get some lesbian sex scenes into the game. I figured this would be a good way to make repl...

October's Plan

Morning, everyone.

Ch7 was released to the public on Friday and it's great to read all the comments on f95 and Newgrounds from the people enjoying it. The weekend was pretty busy as I spent it formulating plans and doing some research.

The game is now available on itch.io and gamejolt, a bit of a last minute decision between Margo and myself as I was going to hold off on marketplace sites until the game was complete, but we're deep enough into the project it should be seen as a pr...

Future Planning

Alright. There's something I want to talk about and I need your help. I'm planning how the final version of this game will look and it's going to be realistic to think I'm not going to get all the features I want in. 

I want your opinions on which features you want the most and which you want the least, that way I can prioritise them and budget accordingly. Please speak up about this if you can as your opinion is important in determining how the final version of the game will look....

Chapter 7 Public Release

It's here. The bundle pack downloads won the poll so it is only available in a single download starting now. It will continue to be uploaded chapter by chapter on Newgrounds though if your internet isn't great for the bigger downloads.

You can transfer your save folder from the Ch1-6 release to this one so long as you save before the little "ending skits" I put at the end of each release.

If you were playing the single chapter downloads, you can transfer your save folder over to t...

THE premiere sporting event of the summer! Don't miss it!

Public release later today!

Miyu, seen here, bringing it.

To all those people that saw Maddie's tail in chapter 4 and said, I want to touch it. I got you covered, fam.

For the record, this is how to accurately judge swimsuits. Trust me, I'm a professional... *cough*

And that's the bottom line, because The Smoother Christopher Durlap said so!

CG Scene for Chapter 7

Perfect way to end the day.

Chapter 7 Release Date

I have released the patreon early access for chapter 7 and the public release will be Friday October 9th. Not quite the full 7 days but I'm too excited for this one so you'll have to forgive me.

This will be the biggest chapter yet and I'm excited to finally get this one out. I've been planning it for quite some time.

In the meantime, I'll be doing the usual screenshots and such for the $5 crowd, including a very special CG scene.

This one will also be the first time it's re...

Chapter 7 Patreon Release

Hey. Chapter 7 is ready to go. For this release, I'm testing an Android build to see if it works ok so if you use Android, it's now available in that format. Be sure to copy the entire link or it will ask for a key.

First Look at Swimsuit Costumes

Received a big pile of art for Chapter 7 so I'll be sorting through and getting the engine ready. Still just need a CG scene but we'll be ready for a release soon.

In the meantime, instead of the usual white background, "here's the new sprite" thing. I thought I'd try to make it look more like a photo shoot.

Enjoy the sight of the girls enjoying their evening after a long day at the beach.

The Rest of Our Lives - A Look Back - Part 3

The finale to the one year-ish anniversary of The Rest of Our Lives.

Part 3: What could have been.

“What if?” Every project has that question as the dreams of your mind and the reality of making the project clash.

With The Rest of Our Lives, what could have happened is probably best lost in time but unlucky for you, it’s been about a year since the project’s release and I’m feeling a little nostalgic.

Prepare yourself for somethi...

The Rest of Our Lives - A Look Back - Part 2

Part 2 of the series to celebrate the story's one year-ish anniversary.

 Part 2: Cancelling the project and releasing it on Steam

Cancelling the project sucked. Margo and I were having a blast trying to figure out what we could do with Pride and Prejudice’s story and how weird we could make the characters.

For shits and giggles, I didn’t actually watch the movie or read some of the book until after the first release. When I started it, I ...

The Rest of Our Lives - A Look Back - Part 1

It's around the one year anniversary for the game so I'm going to take a moment a look back at the development and release of a game that proved to be a big changing point for me creatively.

Part 1: Pre-production to the first release

The original idea for the game came in 2018. I was sitting down and working on what was going to be the Uncle Artie Project.

Originally, Uncle Artie was meant to be a virtual 18+ studio. The games it released were ...

September's Plan

What better time to discuss what I'm doing this month than almost halfway through it haha

It's been a busy month so far as everyone has already seen. I'm trying to engage more with you guys and just generally plan for the second half of the game.

The start of the month saw me releasing Ch6 a little earlier than usual as well as finishing the writing for Ch7. Ch7 was edited and now I've finished putting it all into the engine. It still needs the new artwork and polish but I got all...

A work in progress

A couple of days ago, I had posted about making changes to how I approach creating patreon content and here are my thoughts on some stuff and what I'll do. Buckle up, I'mma ramblin' down there.

Discord Server - Ever popular choice. I've set one up to give it a shot. I've been a part of a couple as a dev and a fan and I'm still trying to figure how to use the server the most effectively. For now, everyone will just be treated to me rambling about whatever game or anime I'm watching that ...
