Weekly Update - November 16 - The Sauce is Thick

Hey Peeps!!

I hope you've all had a nice week! It's been snowy up here in Montreal, which has been exciting and a little nerve-racking. Quebec really likes its ice storms, and we narrowly avoided one this year by, like, one or two degrees.

So that's good!

Everything continues to happen a lot, everywhere, all at once! Some of that everything involves me finishing the next chapter of Play Things! I've completed the 'write-through' stage, so now I have to do variants and then ...

Weekly Update - November 8 - We Have Entered The Canadark!

Heylo people!!

It is I! The Squish!

I hope you had as good a week as I did, because my week was pretty rad!

I'm trucking along with writing the next chapter of Play Things. I hit a bit of a snag, which cost me some time, but I'm back on track - no big rewrites, just a few scenes I needed to go through to make sure I was hitting the right tone.

Tone in smut is always important, but in Play Things, it's really important because the events that are happening to our daring...

Weekly update - October 31, 2025 - A Rather Soggy Halloween!

Hello, delightful human pals!

I hope you are having a Halloween! It has been a very rainy week here in Montreal, and it is an especially rainy Halloween morning! I hope it clears up in a bit so the kiddos do not end up in uncomfortably damp costumes!

I don't have a ton to report this week. The writing for the next chapter of Play Things is going well - surprisingly well, actually. I haven't been writing super fast, but I have been writing consistently. Assuming I can keep this up ...

Weekly update - October 23, 2025 - A Quiet One This Time

Hello delightful pals!

It is I! Squishy!

I don't have a large update today, because we are down to our final chapter for Play Things Day 6 and thus there is no poll for what I write next!

The previous chapter, the MC / Tattoo route, has been well received by the patrons who responded to the Google Form at the end of the chapter. I always appreciate each and every response so much. Thank you to everyone who fills those forms out every chapter! You're the best!

Concoctions for Everyone!!

Hello wonderful pals!

Let me know if you enjoy it, and if you're interested in reading other short stories!

The content warnings for this one are: group sex, gender feels, furries

0.4.4.0.p - Patreon - Day 6 - DREAMER / TATTOO

Hello marvelous patrons!

It's update day!

The update this month is the penultimate chapter for Day 6! Wild to think that this game is almost done!

This chapter is pretty kinky, very silly, and should be both fun and heartwarming too! I hope you enjoy it!

Weekly update - October 3, 2025 - If you keep doing that you'll go blind

Hey Peeps!

This update is uh... wow, it's Friday! Did that whole week go really fast for anyone else!

I did still want to get this update out at some point, so I'm doing it now!

I am still working on the Play Things update. As usual, it has ended up much bigger than I thought. I expected the two paths for this route would take a lot of additional work because of how different they would have to be, and it was correct! We're at about 38k words now, and I expect to add another...

Weekly update - September 22, 2025 - I'm tired boss...

Good Monday to You!

I don't have much to report this week unfortunately! Working on the variants has taken longer, as I had several people visiting last week, which took a bit of a toll on my productivity.

I don't know if any of you have this - but I find it almost impossible to concentrate on anything if I'm waiting to do something. The classic is: "I can't possibly do anything now I have a doctors appointment in six hours!"

I'm not sure why my brain does this, bu...

Weekly update - September 15, 2025 - Burger Assembly

Hey Peeps!

Last week I said I wanted to write the rest of the chapter, and I did manage to do that! Hurray!

Or, well... kind of!

I did write the whole chapter, but not all of the words I need are written. How did I manage such an unusual feat?

Welcome to the wonderful and confusing world of variable text!

For this week, I thought I'd explain my process for writing Play Things, and how I can be done, and not-done, at the same time.

I have written a lot of wo...

Weekly update - September 8, 2025 - Economic Anxiety

Hey everyone!

You might be thinking, "Hey! Been a while since one of these, right? Did I miss one?"

You didn't! I didn't write a post last week because I didn't want to write an update without something to report, and I kept getting distracted from doing work with worries about the future.

I'm sure you're aware, but to recap: a lobbying group from Australia called 'Collective Shout' pressured Visa and Mastercard to demand that online game platforms remove or restrict access ...

Weekly Update - August 25 - Sleep and Surprises

Good morning everyone! I hope you all had a good week last week. Personally, I had a bit of a weird one!

Last year around this time I was having sleeping problems. I was having trouble staying asleep at night - so I decided to try taking melatonin to see if I could fix that.

This was, it turns out, a mistake. I'm sure other people can take melatonin in a way that is helpful for them, but for me it did not help me stay asleep that much. Instead, taking melatonin made it so that I w...

Choice Theft - Should Riley choose for you?

Hey! So I mentioned that I was thinking of having Riley choose for you in this route. I got some positive feedback on this idea, and I got some feedback that was less than positive, so I wanted to take the temperature.

I can make both options work, but I thought given the unusual shape of your relationship in this route, it might be more interesting if you have less choices.

Let me know what you think! Which would you prefer?

Weekly Update - August 18 - On Writing The Wrong Things

Last week, I had an enormous amount of trouble getting myself to sit down and write.

I did a lot of work on things that weren't writing last week. Every day, I'd put 'Write Some Play Things' on my list of things to do today, and every day, all the way up to Thursday, I'd end the day with that particular action item unchecked.

I like writing. I like the process of figuring out a story, I even enjoy the physical act of typing - so when I'm having trouble getting myself to do it, it'...

Weekly Update - August 11

Good morning, everyone!

Quick update, because I don't have a lot to show off this week! I wrote ten thousand words last week for the new update, but I didn't get much else done.

I spent a lot of time thinking about what I should and could do in the future, but not enough time actually doing things. I wanted to get to an art test for Trixie, but I was too busy thinking to get around to it. Some of that thinking was necessary, and some of it was woolgathering, and it's always hard t...

Poll Results and First Weekly Update

Good morning, everyone!

It's poll result day, and also the first of the weekly updates! I suppose that's where we'll start.

Results for the 'How often do you like progress update?' polls are in with a narrow win for 'weekly updates'.

I find it interesting that absolutely nobody wanted updates more than once a week. I'm right there with you, I think that would be excessive!

The results, as modified by the polling effects of patronage!

Play Things Chapter Poll - July 2025

Two polls today! This is the second!

Which chapter should I work on next for Play Things?

The Cow / Tattoo route is the one with the frat house milk party, the Dreamer / Tattoo route is the one where the effects of the Dreamers goes really off the rails and Riley has to pull out all the stops to get you back.

Progress Update Poll

Heylo Peoples!

This is a poll about updates. The last release I didn't really do any progress updates, and I felt a little guilty about that, so I want to know what kind of progress updates, if any, people are interested in.

So here are your options! Let me know what you think!

As for the last two weeks of progress - I have outlines for the next two Play Things chapters, but aside from that, I was distracted by both a family vacation and illness!

0.4.3.0.u - Public - The Girl From Reddit

Hello delightful people!

Today we have the public release of what might be my favorite chapter of Play Things so far - The Girl From Reddit.

This is a DOCTOR SHINE SPECIAL side-story, it's quite long at about 45k words, and it's a lot of fun.

I hope you enjoy it!

'Is Trixie There?' Progress Update

Hello marvelous people!

Progress on "Is Trixie There?" is moving forward, albeit a bit unevenly at times - but I've made some good progress recently.

I have two big things to share today. The first are the character designs. They've gone through a few iterations, and I'm happy with how Trixie looks in all her iterations. Please let me know in the comments what you think!

Short Story - Concoction

Hello lovely Patrons!

As thanks for your continued support and patience I decided I would write a short smutty for you!

The CWs for this story are: furry, transformation, alcohol use, ambiguously sourced mutagens, and being a trans disaster!

I had a lot of fun writing this, and I hope you enjoy reading it!

Is Trixie There? Working Script

Hello delightful Patron pals!

This is the working script for 'Is Trixie There?'!

It has gone through several rounds of revisions and you can read it if you'd like to get the jump on other people waiting to see the final game.

This is the raw working script, so there are annotations and computer instructions in it, but it remains quite readable (Ink is a great language).

I know some people are a little confused by what the final game will look like. If you want to get ...

Poll Results - It's Trixie Time!

Hey everyone!

You always surprise me, and this time the surprise was that people overwhelmingly want me to work on 'Is Trixie There' on it's own.

That was definitely not what I expected!

You're all awesome! Thank you for trusting me so much!

My plan is to have some people beta read the script for 'Is Trixie There' next week. If you want to be part of that beta read, please join the discord. There's l...

POLL TIME!

Hey everyone!

Pardon my dust, this one's a little long!

It's time to pick what I work on next and that's going to be a little different this month, because I'm starting up a new project.

For a while, I've been struggling to get the paper doll system for Play Things to work. This has been for a variety of reasons, but the biggest one I can do something about is anxiety and scope, and anxiety ABOUT scope.

0.4.2.1.p - Patron - The Girl From Reddit (Kitten Edition)

Hey everyone!

The version I put out on Saturday wasn't updating the character names properly, so everyone was being called Candy!

This version fixes that bug, and a few places where I missed the coding on the names. All SPICE enjoyers should now be their proper Kitten-ey selves!

0.4.2.0.p - Patron - The Girl From Reddit

Hello scrumptious patron pals!

It's the update! Hurrah!

This month you get to check out the brand new "The Girl From Reddit" DOCTOR SHINE SPECIAL.

It is, in my opinion, really cool! It is also 50 000 words long, and kind of it's own route?

I had a lot of fun with this one! I hope you do too!

Next Chapter Release Date

Hey everyone!

It's Saturday, 22nd! That's the plan at least!

The new chapter ended up being REALLY LONG for a Special. It's about 50k words and ended up being it's own kind of mini-arc.

I quite like it! I think you will too.

This will also be the public release of the Chapter 6 for the Cow / Lips route.

I hope you have all are having a lovely March!

Patron File Mixup!

Hey everyone! I messed up by uploading the wrong file for the last patreon technical update! It was not the patron version, it was the public version in the wrong package!

This has been fixed, you just need to re-download it.

0.4.1.1.p - Patrons - Chapter 6 Cow / Lips

A quick technical update for the game. This includes a ton of spelling and grammar fixes in the new chapter. It was really rough. Apologies for that!

I've included a chapter select for the Specials in the main menu - so rather than having to dig through the game to find them, they are all accessible from the main menu.

The password is still 'drift express carry'.

Thank you again for your support. It really means a lot to me!

A quick technical update to fix some spelling errors and bugs. Notably, 'Dietary Mixup' special will no longer be incorrectly accessible on the cow route (you have to choose Dreamers on day 2).

I've included a chapter select for the Specials in the main menu - so rather than having to dig through the game to find them, they are all accessible from the main menu.

Also! I had enough time this week to make a proper google form for feedback. If you've already played the new chapter, ...
