A college student's daily life is full of interesting activities, and what makes it memorable is the time you get to spend with your closest friends.
If Alice's life wasn't put on hold by the sequence of events in The Arson Betrayal, she'd be living her life as normally as anybody: reuniting with a childhood friend, and living life to the fullest.
But things never seem to go the way we want them to be...

Now that Sydney's true identity has been put to light, what complications will this bring to our protagonists? Luna, on the other hand, is eager to meet Alice. Will you trust her?
The clock is ticking. No time for hesitations.

Hey guys! Sorry for not posting for a while since I'm all preoccupied by the update. Here are some 4K wallpapers featuring the characters from The Arson Betrayal. You'll probably see low-res versions of these renders in game as they're the new menu images, but here are the 4K versions for your enjoyment.
The update for Chapter 4 took longer than usual, but I'm promising you guys that it would be worth the wait. And I kind of underestimated the length o...

So as of today (February 24), the update is only a quarter away from being finished! To speed things along, the testing phase has also been started for parts that are already finished, so it'll be polished before the release.
As of now, we're looking at more than the average 700+ renders and animations than previous chapters. It'll also be a bit longer and more complex, so that's where I'll be focusing on when testing t...

It seems like your little escapade with Tiffany unlocked something in her that she's never felt before. Who knows what'll happen the next time you two meet?

Whenever you visit, Sydney gets a little too excited. Since she's not ready for you, she'll have to settle for her pillow for now.
As promised, Patrons receive a 4K render to commemorate The Arson Betrayal's fourth month!
Cheers, and here's to the months (and years) to come.

Hey! Check out the linked Public Renders folder on Google Drive. In the real world we all have to abide by some rules, and posting NSFW art here is prohibited.

I just realized it's been exactly four months since I've started this project! That said, here's the news I've got for you:
As you can see, development is roughly halfway through. I'm trying to code and render at least one scene per day, and now that I've got free time I'll be able to put more hours into this. Right now, the story's already set in stone, and I've prepared all the SFX and music I'll be needing. Chapter 4 will be a little bit longer than the rest, and I'...

Some people were reporting that the gallery unlocker wasn't working. I made a fix and also made some on the gallery that I missed before. Then I've thrown in the walkthrough update and other bug fixes here as well for convenience.

I was experimenting ways to make scenes in the game better, and one of my tests surprised me. Proud to say that in my opinion, this is the best render I've made since I've started, and I hope you all like it.

Hi. As of yesterday, February 02, 2022, I've started the writing and development phase of Chapter 4 (version 0.4.0). I've also decided to change the version format from "x.xx" to "x.x.x" (to be more concise, and to allow me to keep track of fixes as well). As of the moment, bug-fixes, typo/grammar errors correction, and coding errors are still being tracked down for Chapter 3 (0.3.0). Nothing game-breaking, but enough to be annoying if you pa...

I'm planning (hopefully) to release a series of renders throughout the month. This is rendered in 4K, or at least that's what my system told me (it's in 3840x2160, and the size is 4x larger than the typical 1920x1080 renders). Consider this as part of the testing period for now.

Finally, it's here. (Or at least, it's coming.)
Chapter 4 will feature the long-awaited route in the game: The Harem Route.
If you gained enough points with Jessica and Sydney, then you get to unlock this route. It's been hinted since Chapter 1 that your relationship with both girls would eventually lead to this, as they're willing to share as long as it's our MC.
Of course, it'll still be a long way before we're able to fully explore that direction, but Chapt...

These are just some random early renders I had when I was designing the characters. They're not 4K (because I was just testing them at that time).I was looking into what the best expressions would be, and writing a character background according to how they looked.
Just wanted to share it with you guys.

As of today, I'm halfway done with the script and renders. Animations are done as well. All I need is to add some music and SFX, finish the rest of the renders and coding, as well as game testing.
Despite this pandemic still hitting hard (at least, where I'm from), I'm glad to say we're still on schedule.
Cheers, and I'll see you all on the next update!

All this time, we've seen our protagonist go against the law and gangs alike. But just like in real life, things aren't as simple as "black and white". There are still those who uphold the rule of law, with conviction unlike any other...
