Poll: Did you like the wide-angle sex scene?

For reference, I’m referring to this scene from V0.3.5:

All goals reached!

This post is mostly to point out that I know that all of the goals have been reached. Here’s a quick follow-up for each of them:

Moaning sounds

Because of some personal issues last month, I didn’t have the time to look for Aya’s voice actress. I do plan on looking more seriously this week, so here’s hoping I’ll be able to hear Aya’s sweet moaning voice this month.

Full-Time Job

I was already kinda working full-time on this ...

Let’s talk about endings (part 2)

In the first thread on this subject, I asked you guys whether you’d prefer if I develop every ending in parallel or one at a time. The answer was pretty unanimous. Everyone (myself included) seems to believe that focusing on one ending at a time would be not only simpler for me but also easier to follow along from a reader’s standpoint. So that’s exactly what I’m going to do. We’ve reached...

A Promise Best Left Unkept V0.3.5 - Tipsy (5$) Tier

Fortunately, things have calmed down from my end, so I was able to finish working on this update a bit sooner than expected. So this release is around 19k words, has one (rather long) sex scene, and four new CG sets.

I’m a bit unsure about the direction I took for this particular sex scene. It’s extremely hard to take what I write on paper and conceptualize it as a full-fledged scene sometimes (even more so when I’m not the artist). Also, we’ve reached a point in the story where...

No break next month

I know it will start to sound like some kind of recurring joke, but a lot of things are happening in my life right now and I can’t really afford to take a break. I always had the intention of stopping the billing for the month if I did take a break, so now it will have to wait a little.

Which means I’ll be releasing an update next month.

Also, I just want to clear up some misunderstandings. Maybe it’s because of the word ‘break,’ but what I meant by it w...

CG Preview #6

Before talking about the CG, I just want to take this opportunity to apologize in advance if I’m somehow slower to answer private messages and whatnot. There are some personal family issues that I’m dealing with right now, and depending on how the situation evolves, I might not have the time or the will to do certain things that would normally take priority. It shouldn’t affect the release of the upcoming update though. I’m making sure of that. The update should release around the 21s...

Let’s talk about endings (part one)

At the end of this month's release, we will reach a breaking point in the story. From then on, depending on the choices you’ve made, the story should branch off toward a particular conclusion. So I thought it would be a good idea to have a conversation now about how I should go about tackling the endings.

Before that, though, I just want to point out that I’m not necessarily used to creating branching stories. So the way the choices impact the story, and the way the story branch off...

Poll: Did I do a good job with the moaning sounds?

Since I’m planning to look for a voice actress for Aya soon, and since all of you had the opportunity to play the latest release, I wanted to do a quick poll to make sure that I did an okay job directing/integrating the moaning sounds before commissioning the next VA. I tried to think of every sound that Laura could do during sex, but it’s very hard to account for every little thing. So if any of you have any comments/suggestions, I’m all ears!

A Promise Best Left Unkept V0.3.0 - Tipsy (5$) Tier

Let’s first talk about the technicalities. V0.3.0 is around 21k words long. It has two new sex scenes, and about 7 new CG sets.

Now that the boring stuff is out of the way, I want to inform you guys that I did in fact find more time under my bed. Well...not really. I just worked more. In fact, I  finished working on the update an hour before putting it live. So, what I’m trying to say here is that I was able to add the moaning sounds in the game.

No break next month

Just a small post to let you guys know that I’m not taking a break next month (March). I want to reach a certain point in the story before taking one since it can give me insight as to how I should tackle the endings and whatnot. So, instead, I will be taking a break in April. Assuredly. Without a doubt. I’m not a hundred percent sure, but I should. So, probably...?

In any case, I’ll keep y’all informed!

CG Preview #5

Here’s the first scene illustrated by the new artist. There are multiple perspectives of that scene, but I’m only showing one. I think he’s great. I love his coloring and he’s good with faces. The only problem is that he’s rather slow. Can take up to a month to draw one scene, but that’s something you kinda have to anticipate with certain artists—even more so if the artist draws multiple perspectives of the scene. So we won’t see his work often. He’s going to have another sc...

Quick update regarding the moaning sounds

It’s a quick update to let you guys know that I did find a voice actress for Laura’s moaning sound. Her name is KittenVox. Here’s her Twitter and Soundcloud. Someone referred her to me a few weeks back, so thanks for that. She still hasn’t started working on my request yet because of some personal reasons, but she did say that it should normall...

A Promise Best Left Unkept V0.2.5 - Tipsy (5$) Tier

V0.2.5 is a bit smaller than my other updates (17.5k words vs 20k+ words), and doesn’t have as much action as I would have liked it to. Unfortunately, that kind of downtime is bound to happen sometimes, even more so with the rule system and Laura wanting to fight back. I did have the opportunity to implement a few things because I had a bit more time on my hands though.

First Goal Achieved (Moaning Sounds)!

As some of you may have noticed, we’ve achieved our first goal two days ago (moaning sounds for both Laura and Aya). Yay! In fact, we’ve achieved the two first goals, but I expect that, by the end of the month, a few people will probably change their pledges or simply end their subscriptions, which will bring us below the goal once more. I assume that it will take a couple of months still before the second goal is fully achieved.

So I just wanted to let you guys know that I’ll slo...

Third artist, one-year anniversary, and goals

New artist

I mentioned briefly in the past that I would need another artist for the sex scenes since the closer we move toward the endings and the more the action should start ramping up. The second artist that I’ve found is great, but since there’s a rather obvious discrepancy between his art and the art of my main artist, I use him mostly for extra/semi-sexual CGs for now. And so that’s why I decided to commission a third artist. I won’t make a poll for this o...

CG Preview #4

I had meant to make a post a bit sooner, but I had a lot going on the past few days, so I’m very sorry about that. This CG isn’t necessarily the most exciting, but I kinda like it. Also, someone asked me to share Laura’s new outfit, and since it is used in this scene but hard to really notice, I might as well share it at the same time. It’s nothing extreme (can’t really, since she’s still at work), but it’s still sexy.

Poll result (Does Laura resemble herself?), and goals for the page

Poll result

The last poll was pretty unanimous, and so I decided that I’ll keep working with this artist moving forward. The illustration I’m sharing is from an event that occurred in the V0.1.5—Aya in a bikini sending a selfie to Harry. I’ll be adding this illustration, as well as the one where Laura is next to the whiteboard, to the upcoming release. For now, I’ll only use this artist for semi-sexual/bonus CGs. There may come a time when I’ll be forced to ...

A Promise Best Left Unkept V0.2.0 - Tipsy (5$) Tier

V0.2.0 was a bit harder to put together than the previous builds. Not that it has more content per se; it’s around 22k words. But maybe since the sexual content is starting to ramp up, and that sex scenes take a lot longer to code, my time management was a bit off. So don’t be surprised if the next few releases are a bit smaller (15k vs 20k). I just want to make sure that I’m not sacrificing some quality just to meet the deadline. Hopefully there’s nothing glaringly wrong with this re...

Does Laura resemble herself? (Continuation of ‘should I commission this artist?’)

I know I said I would share the sketch, but I decided that it would be best to wait until I had the final version of the illustration before sharing it (since certain subtilities can be overlooked with sketches).

The illustration portrays Laura next to a whiteboard in the conference room (something that will happen a couple of times in the game).

So my question here is: do you think Laura...

Poll result (Should I commission this artist)

I won’t lie, I’m actually surprised. Since the art style is very different from the one in the game currently, I thought people would be a lot more off-put by it, but I see that I was mistaken. It’s pretty much 2 to 1 in favor of commissioning this particular artist.

(Here's the artist's illustration, for those who have no idea what I'm talking about.)

But, on the other hand, I also...

Poll: Should I commission this artist?

So this is an artist that I contacted a week ago. Since we’re close to Christmas and I didn’t want to pay for a scene that I might not use, I decided to make him draw some kind of fan art instead.

Obviously, as you can see, the art is very different from the art in the game, which is one of the reasons why I wanted to make a poll about it; to see how people feel. I have my suspicions about ...

CG Preview #3

Here’s a CG preview for the upcoming update. I’ll reiterate it, but if you don’t want to be spoiled, don’t click the link at the end of the post. Though this CG doesn’t spoil much in my opinion (which is why I picked this one in particular).

I don’t really have anything to say about it. There are four different versions of the CG and a handful of expressions too.

The next update, if everything goes as planned (which it should), should come out at the end of next weekâ€...
