Monthly Mini-Update for March!

Okay! Here's our first MMU in the Beta proper, and it's a bit weird. There's no Diamond Door this time, the changes I've made are already installed in the game proper. I've been hiring playtesters to try the game out for the first time and give me feedback, and I've been altering the early game a lot to try and make it play better. The values behind the scenes have been adjusted a lot to hopefully make it feel a little more natural and reasonable for a new player to find the blue and pink col...

Lith's Diary - March

Dear Diary,
Things have really gone crazy in the last month, huh? Well, I've been managing okay so far. It's been a bummer, dialing back the socializing in person, but I guess that makes more time for being a nerd online and such. I've never considered myself particularly good at adapting to disasters and hardship, but this is one change of lifestyle I can deal with pretty easily, that I guess a lot of people have been struggling with. I hope you're not going too stir-crazy, Diary. And tha...

Regarding Future Project(s)!

Just in case you've missed it, I've been making some big blog posts on my site to talk about how MVOL has turned out and my plans for the future. I'm hoping to wrap it all up in a big conclusion/summary and get one or maybe multiple polls going soon, so now is a great time to make sure you've read up on what's going on!

You can get started with the Introduction here, or if you'v...

For future reference

Here's another one that was a bit rough to get right. This is actually a recolored version I made real quick to be a little more accurate (it's a little sloppy in places, sorry) but overall I'm fairly happy with it. I'm long overdue to have a proper ref for Lith, and I knew I had to get it from Mz Nite, but she's super busy these days, so it was tough getting it done. Glad to finally have it, though!

This pose was "not" inspired by a game for children

This one was a more difficult piece to complete, surprisingly, but I hope folks like how it turned out. Vertry has a lot of talent, though we were both going through some hectic times that made it harder to get things adjusted properly and the whole thing dragged out some. To be honest, I'm still not 100% happy with how it's turned out, but a friend looked at it and told me it was all in my head, which I could be...

Lith's Diary - February

Dear Diary,
This month has been difficult, but not so much so that I really feel like I can complain. It's more like... I still feel like I could do better, and be better, than what I've been doing. So I guess it's important to try to understand how I can improve? That'll give this mess some real worth.

I don't want to get into too much detail on it, to be honest. I took some time off to be social, and it wasn't bad, but it could have gone better. I had a hard time getting back into...

v0.90+ Advance Release!

That's right, we're finally making the jump from Alpha to Beta! What's that mean? In short, the main content of the game is complete! From here on, I'll be transitioning to tuning the game to play better and be a better experience in general. But I'll get into that more later!

The important thing right now is, the new content is ready, along with a slew of new side features! The easiest to find is a new snack, but if you follow the new hints in the game, you might be able to find the n...

Monthly Mini-Update for February!

Alright! This MMU has a lot of different things going on, as we're making the big jump to v0.90 with a bunch of new little features added in! I'll go through them quickly in order of significance.

The big chunk of content I previewed in the last MMU is now complete and moved from the Diamond Door to its proper place in the game! This does mean that it will be much harder to find it, though, as this is basically meant to be the single most challenging section of content to find in the g...

Inanimate objects??

Who commissions art of inanimate objects for a porn game?! Honestly! Well, I do feel like they each have some character to them, and certainly come with a great deal of meaning, so I was happy to finally have them rendered properly, and I think SalKitten did a fantastic job bringing them "to life." Especially considering just how weird some of these turned out to be, once I started looking for references and re...

Monthly Mini-Update for January!

Okay folks! We're in the endgame here, so this is another preview that's a little bit tricky. Both what this preview contains and how to get to it is a pretty big spoiler, and like a few updates back, if you open it, you'll be missing out on the experience of discovering it for yourself in the game. That said, I expect this to be one of the most challenging to find and least commonly known sections of the game, so if you're not looking for a challenge, playing this preview should giv...

Lith's Diary - January

Dear Diary,
I hope you've been staying warm! It's finally easing up a little here, but I know that in a lot of places, the winter is getting to its most bitter part around now. It's been a long time since summer, and the cold is setting in deep. You'd better be taking of yourself!

I probably could be taking a little bit better care of myself, actually. Things were a little hectic this month, and I ended up doing a lot of cleaning as well as working hard, and I had to remind myself t...

Here's one I've been wanting to get for a long time. With this, I've gotten three pieces from Khuraji centered around strong moments in Lith's journey through the Stone Door, and I've been really happy with all of them. They really help push the feel of this section, I think. This one was delayed some with my own preoccupation, and getting all the details of this scene right was challenging, but he was great about communicating clearly and getting things figured out. I think this might be the...

Lith's Diary - December

Dear Diary,
Happy holidays! I hope you had fun exchanging gifts, celebrating with friends, whatever you got up to this month. It's the middle of winter here and I believe we're passing the longest nights right around now, so it's important to take some time to be cheerful and celebrate all the good things in our lives. Friends, safety, family, health, they're all so precious, and we can so easily take them for granted until we lose one of them. Stay warm, and stay grateful for all the good...

v0.44+ Advance Release!

Phew! Been packing a lot into this, but the new version is just about ready to go! The Hidden Section is now around... 95% complete, including several official endings! You can now play all the way through and uncover your final fate for yourself. Best of luck!

Along with that, thanks to the voters, MVOL now has a Dark Mode! I went for a fairly simple execution, but I think it looks pretty good and doesn't mess up the game's overall aesthetic.

As always, but especially so here, ...

Monthly Mini-Update for December!

The pre-release MMU is ready to go! That means the Diamond Door is closed, and instead you'll be able to find all the new content baked right into the game itself! I'll explain how to find it at the end, but first, a quick overview.

This update is all about expanding and just about finishing The Hidden Section. If you're not sure what I'm talking about, you may need to explore more of the game, as this is gonna have spoilers!

Most scenes in this section now have a "second+ time ...

A nice piece from Kappadoggo! This one went pretty smoothly; usually the process can be pretty stressful, but they were very receptive and it only took a few adjustments to get things just right for this piece. I still tend to have mixed feelings about how much of the avatar to include in the piece, and this one feels a little weird to me, but overall I think it works well!

I'm in the thick of it right ...

Lith's Diary - November

Dear Diary,
Looking back, I think I'd say I've had a pretty good month. I've been getting a little better about being social and such, playing some fun games, but also getting a good amount of work done. Not a great month, but y'know, one of those times when I stop to look back, and realize that yeah, actually, it's been pretty good overall. I hope I've helped you notice a few of those yourself!

I was stressing out some earlier because it kinda felt like I couldn't keep up with ever...

Monthly Mini-Update for November!

Alright! I'm feeling a lot better about this MMU than I was the last few months. I finally took a decent amount of time to just decompress and get my head on straight, and I feel like I got a pretty good amount written up for the coming update.

For this preview, we're returning to the dog everyone loves (to hate?). I will say that this one arguably has minor spoilers just because some of this content would normally be pretty difficult to access, so if you want the satisfaction of the "...

Happy Thanksgiving, folks! This one was a big challenge, but MorgueBuddy was very patient and flexible in realizing this crucial moment in the story, and I think it's come out beautifully. Pretty excited to get this piece in the game!

Been pounding out new content for the coming MMU, feeling pretty good about it at the moment, but trying not to think on that too much, lest I relax too soon. I've let my...

Lith's Diary - October

Dear Diary,
Happy Halloween! I've been a little too busy to bother doing anything big for the holiday this year, but I hope you had some fun with it. I always feel terribly silly trying to do a costume, but I know lots of people will have fun with it at any age.

Let's see... last month, we were talking about getting healthy and going out more! Did you remember? Did you go out and have lots of fun, and take care of yourself, and be social and stuff? You better! I've got a big pout ju...

v0.43+ Advance Release

After the big, crazy marathon v0.42 became, I was a little worn out and short on time for this one, so v0.43 is looking a little smaller. Sorry! For this one, you can now make the other choice for getting your Final Ending and follow that all the way to the end, plus thanks to the voters, there are a handful of new Flirt results, aimed more toward mid and late game. Two new pieces of art are in there, as well!

Please keep in mind, the game is still getting the extra little bits added, ...
