Alright! Poll time! I've dropped The Starship Promise from the list for this month, not because I'm not going to continue it at some point, but because it currently calls for a follow-up poll that I don't feel comfortable that we'll have time for this month. In its place, I've offered a continuation of the Cursed Clothing short from last month. Note that I've also switched up the story for Galactic Nomad.
Remember, this is a weighted poll. Each dollar of your patronage gives y...

Alright, I know I need to get the monthly polls up. In fact, I'll be doing those later today. But I felt the need to make this post first. Before I get into the why of that, which will likely end up being more rambly than I'd like, I have a request. Specifically, the request is for those of you who may have accounts on F95zone or TFGames. I've been reluctant to ask this, b...

Okay, with yesterday's release of Build 13 for Patrons, it's time for Build 12 to go public! All things considered, I was fairly pleased with this build. While it's one scene short of my original goal (an extra date for Sylvia is missing), I came verrrryyy close to squeezing everything in. And it's a pretty nice little mix of content types, too. But, you can read more about that in the rel...

Alright! About a day behind the release, which is pretty typical, I've got the walkthrough done. Cheats are unchanged from last time and are as follows:
---------------------
New Cheats (Build 11-13)
NiceThings = +2000 Gold
GoldenGirl = + 10 Fame
WhoNeedsPanties = + 10 Nymph Points
LacyLife = + 10 Sedutress Points

Whew! It's ready! At least for the initial release. I'm going to warn you up front that I'm expecting bugs. I got a little punch drunk hazy with tiredness while doing the testing/bugfix phase, so I have suspicions I may not have done as solid a job as usual with that. Particularly as I had some very strange bugs/errors this time. It doesn't help that my testing document kinda crashed halfway through the testing process, leaving me without my usual checklists.
Anyways, though! Asid...

Regrettably, my day job contracts over ran enough today that I didn't quite manage to finish the build yet. Given how close it is to midnight, it's not going to be done before the ISP maintenance starts. On the other hand, I'm close enough to finished that only something going badly wrong will prevent me from uploading it as soon as said maintenance is over. Hopefully, that will be around 5am. And I'll still have access via my phone to update everyone if that proves not to be the case.

Okay, this is mostly good news, but only mostly. By the time I crash in an hour or so, I should have all the programming, writing and editing done for Haven's Port Build 13. That just leaves the testing/bugfix and upload for tonight. The writing in particular did take longer than I'd have liked, but it's largely done.
The bad news is that, if things take as long as they could, it might technically not be ready until past midnight. Normally, I'd say that meant tha...

Okay! Considering that every other reward for the month is actually done and already out for once, this progress report can be pretty simple. In short, Haven's Port is currently going pretty well. Despite losing over a week off the front of the month due to the overun of Left Hand Magic and a couple of days spent extremely sick, I managed to render a full 14 scenes for the build. That's still a bit lighter weight than normal, though the fact that the scenes average 6.5 renders per sc...

With the release of Stranded on Silas Station (Part 3) for the Royalty tier members, it's also time to bump another of the previous exclusives down to the Upper-Class tier. In this case, it was/is the Finale of The Side Gig (The Side Gig - What’s in a Happy Ending?). This was the first (and so far only) one of the Mixed Media/Comic storylines that's ever actually reached completion, and I'm still quite happy with...

Okay! Time for the comic/mixed media short. Just about when I had predicted it, too. That's a nice change. Even nicer is knowing that this is the last reward for the month save the Haven's Port release. And it's coming along just fine (I'll post a progress report tomorrowish, probably).
Anyway, I'm pretty happy with how this particular entry in the Stranded on Silas Station series turned out. It's an odd one for me, but I think it turned out well. Specifically, it's odd in that this one...

Alright! For once, I'm getting the second short out well before the end of a month! I'm pretty happy with it, too, even if it did (as I mentioned in the last progress report) come up a bit shy of the normal 5k target word count. It wasn't that shy, thankfully, clocking in at just over 4,250 words. And I honestly felt that adding more to it would have lessened it, rather than improved it, so...here we are.
One way or another, I think it turned out well, and I hope everyone...

So, time for another progress report. And, miracle of miracles, everything I have to report at the moment is actually positive. Don't get used to it! I know I'll try not to, as if I do I won't be ready for the next ambush by Murphy's Minions or the dastardly henchmen of Writer's Block.

Things are going pretty well here! I just finished up the last render for the ninth scene for the build. I'll likely kick off at least one render for the 10th scene bef...

Alright! Time for the first short story reward for the month. For Royalty Tier Patrons, also be aware that I released the wallpapers a few minutes ago as well.
As for this short story, this one is a rare case of being fairly directly inspired by something. Specifically, it was a combination of remembering a favorite Skyrim mod (that I didn't actually use during Chastity Quest), 2022-01-18 10:39:58 +0000 UTC

Time to get some of these rewards delivered! This one is another case where you extra-awesome handful are getting a tiny sneak peak, too. Specifically, a sneak peak of the critical new NPC for this month's Haven's Port release. Mistress Ryoia is a high-ranking member of the Order of the Rose...and all Rosegirls wanting to become Acolytes pass through her!
As usual, I've attached zip files with the most common resolutions, plus a no-text version for the 4k wallpapers.

Okay, so I actually have rewards to post, but I figured we were overdue for a progress report first. Ergo, I'm posting this now, I'll post the rewards either sometime tonight, sometime tomorrow, or some mix of both. Anyway!

So far, this is actually going pretty well. I've got 5 scenes completed and another one partially done. Which is particularly impressive as most of the scenes so far are longer, more the length of date type content than regular sce...

Haven's Port Focus Poll/Progress:
I honestly hadn't a clue how this one would play out. The result was pretty unambiguous though, with the Order of the Rose winning handily. It took almost 75% of the vote, in fact. I suppose at least part of this is because the Order has had more actual showing in the game so far. But I assume the types of content it focuses on also had something to do with t...

I'm going to be honest here, this isn't really that needful yet. But I want to be on top of it for when things get more complicated later on. So, there's a PDF attached with a guide to where all the points and scene differences are in Build 1 of Left Hand Magic. There also aren't any cheats yet...that will probably be something added in Build 2 or 3. Right now there isn't a lot of point in them.

Wohoo! Finally. A day later than I thought would be the maximum delay T-T. But, that was the whole illness that. I once again apologize for this being so late, everyone. That said, I won't belabor the point longer. If you just want to play, you can skip the next bit by going down to the the TL;DR line. For those that want to hear my musings on the build, just read on :-).
Build 1 (the first release was just a demon) is actually something I'm fairly proud of? And about...95% satisficed w...

Okay guys and gals. I'm alive, more or less. The previous two days were basically a haze of pain and suffering. I've been very sick a few times in my life, including once or twice that I was outright hospitalized when I was a kid. This was the worst it's ever been for an illness, short of hospitalization. And a couple of times I nearly di...

Okay, for the second month in a row, I'm nixing any chance of doing the true comics.

But I'd rather a little disappointment than a lot when I couldn't manage to get it does. On the other hand, it does give us a chance to see something new.

I'm already planning for the second story of the month. Not telling! It's something new that may or may not be a one-off. Not sure yet. Butttt, for the main story of the month, voting time! Pretty straightforward, but remember that this is the weighted poll. Each dollar of your patronage gets you a vote, voting for multiple stories results in an even split between them, even if that results in fractional votes.

Alright! I actually intended to have this and the other polls up mid-afternooish yesterday. Sadly, my day-job dumped a couple of extra hours of work on my head half-unexpectedly. Too many people coming back to their offices and needing stuff from me all at once. I sort of expected it, but didn't really realize how much it would eat into my time. Anyway, Left Hand Magic is coming along nicely...but the monthly polls need to get done so that I can jump right into things when I wrap that up.

Alright. Given that all other rewards have already been released this month, this is less 'progress report' and more 'explanation of where Left Hand Magic is.'
So, good news first. The prologue content is actually all 100% done. As in, edited, tested, debugged, gallery bits added, etc. I could technically release the prologue as a build right now (well, after building the exes at least). Also fairly good is the fact that, by the end of today, 100% of the renders should be...
