1/18 Status Update

I was planning on starting this update off saying I didn't have much to talk about, as it was pretty much the same as last week. But then I ended up writing a bunch of stuff, so let's get into it!

I've almost forged a throughline on the Naked Ambition content. Once I've got that pattern down I can start copying it and editing it for various scenarios. There's also a lot of scenes that I only need to write once, like the vote itself. So not great progress, but progress. My whole plan rig...

1/11 Status Update

Netoria 2 continues to buzz away, I can't remember the last time work on a project was going this well. I should be able to have the entirety of the main story of Vasthti Act 2 done this by the end of the month. I already uploaded a new build to the beta server and it could have gone even further except I had a little bit to tighten up in the level after it cut off. Next I'll have to keep working on the sex scenes and finish the game play. I should probably just make the levels and the base m...

1/4 Status Update

It's a new year! And as usually happens, I'm busy with the same projects and obligations I had at the end of last year. Not that I'm complaining, I'm enjoying my current slate of games. Especially Netoria Tactics 2, that's really fun right now.

Currently, I'm with my Dad on a trip to his hometown. Exactly six years ago I was on this same new years trip, working on the first version of Naked Ambition. I'm pretty sure I was writing that first ball scene at the time. And here I am in 2026 ...

12/28 Status Update

Last update of the year! I hope everyone had a good holiday season and are ready for the new year. For me 2025 was pretty much all Netoria all the time. 2026 will be defined by Act 2 of Netoria 2 and the completion of Naked Ambition. And then if everything goes to schedule, 2027 will have the full completion of Netoria Tactics 2. And then in 2028 will be something else, who knows. TF Card Battle 2, maybe Futa Oasis reworked and put on Steam, or a new game I haven 't started any work on yet. E...

12/21 Status Update

The new Netoria 2 update is out and it seems pretty stable. I've uploaded a version onto Itch as well. So that means at the moment the test build and the live version are basically the same. That will change in the near future as work changes to be focused on the first level of Vashti POV act 2. The first level will be a lot more work than later levels as it means getting everything that is necessary for a level to function all done. So new skills, new mechanics, etc.

The main new mecha...

12/15 Status Update

The new Netoria Tactics 2 update is pretty much done and will come out during the Steam winter sale, because that's how the publisher likes to do things. Here's the changelog:

New content:

• Doubled the number of grope event dialogues

• Added new flashbacks at the end of level 1

• See Azar muster up the courage to confess to Shahrazad only to find a shocking revelation!

• See Zaman win over the heart of a hesitant Shahr...

12/7 Status Update

Sorry about the lack of a post last week. I was extremely busy last weekend and just didn't have time to do it. There was Thanksgiving, which is an all day affair where I need to do a 3 hour drive each way, then the next day I flew across the country to see some friends, and then then I had to pull double shifts at my day job to get all the Black Friday orders made. So it was pretty hectic, but I did do writing where I could.

Right now, Naked Ambition is in the stage of me writing lots ...

11/23 Status Update

We're now two weeks since the launch of Netoria 2 and things have moved from the emergency bug fix response and feedback phase to the further development phase. I am currently working on a new patch that will come out in December it has:

• New flashback scenes for every POV including a sex scene on Azar's POV

• Loads of new grope dialogues to make them less repetitive

• Balance changes to make combat overall less frustrating on lower difficulties.

11/16 Status Update

Netoria Tactics 2 is out! And it's been selling great, it's brought in more revenue in this week than my Patreon ever has in a year. Which brings up a question, do I really need these crowdfunding sites? Well... they are a good source of baseline income, I just need to make sure the rewards are worth it, I don't like feeling like I'm ripping people off.

But Netoria Tactics 2 has a problem in that I can't just give out builds of the game for $10, I sell it for $15 on Steam. If Steam figu...

Netoria Tactics 2 is Out Now!

Buy it on Steam here!

Netoria Tactics 2 is out and in early access! I hope all players whether they've played the first game or not enjoy their time with it. The story of Netoria Tactics 2 is completely seperate from the first game, you don't need to have played it to play this one. It's a sequel to the mechanics and themes, not the characters and setting.

The initial release of N...

11/9 Status Update

Netoria Tactics 2 comes out on Steam tomorrow! That's basically the whole update. I've been working hard on getting it ready and the game is almost ready to go gold. Except "going gold" isn't really a thing anymore with things like Steam. There's no disc I'm burning all the code onto or whatever. I'll probably update the game like five times tomorrow as random bugs get reported now that the pool of people experiencing the game widens. That's a big part of why I recommend buying the game on St...

11/2 Status Update

It's your Sunday evening Apollo Seven update and we are now only eight days from the launch of Netoria Tactics 2! That means this is going to be a pretty short update as all I have to say is that I did lots of bug testing and such. I also did a lot of audio stuff which I've been putting off since I like to playtest while watching a movie or something like that. But now I have to give the game my full auditory attention. Most of that attention was to music. Something like half the file size of...

10/26 Status Update

As you probably noticed, this update is on Sunday instead of Friday. That's probably going to be the standard going forward because Rad Lad has changed their art delivery date to the weekends from mid-week. Since I want to give the best art previews I can during these updates having them at the end of the weekend after I get all the art makes more sense. There also was always a weird conflict between me releasing updates on Friday, so sometimes the status update would be delayed, or me having...

10/18 Status Update

Netoria Tactics 2's build was approved by Steam this week! So all the fuss about Steam purging NSFW stuff, not allowing early access games, etc, didn't matter in the end. The game is coming and coming soon. On November 10th to be exact. Only three-ish weeks away! I hope this release plan of putting it on Steam so I don't have to manually push bug fixes to like five sites at once works out. It does have a pretty significant problem of not working for people who can't/don't want to use Steam fo...

10/10 Status Update

This update is going to be a fairly short one. I'm in a fairly unglamorous period of development where I'm mostly tying loose ends together. Netora Tactics 2 Act 1 releases next month, assuming Steam doesn't jerk me around, so I'm going through all of that content and making sure everything flows and I didn't leave any conversations half done. I'm also writing the last few levels of camp conversations. In Netoria 2 these take longer than in Netoria 1 because I write them for every POV. In Act...

10/3 Status Update

With the release of Naked Ambition .84, the great wheel of development has turned back towards Netoria Tactics 2. Even with the all development decisions being made by just me, there's a lot of inertia to these things. It really is like steering a large ship, I need to start making turns months before other people see the results of them. In this case it's all about artist output. Who is working on what is a good amount of time and effort to manage and I need to make sure all the timelines ma...

Naked Ambition .84

This update is a bug fix patch. With the amount of systems .83 touched, some kind of patch was inevitable. So here it is!

Changelog:
Fixed a bug where you could have Evette's 3 heart check before it being possible to have 3 hearts with her

Fixed Evette not having her hearts displayed on the People screen

9/20 Status Update

First off, Naked Ambition .83 will be out next Friday. That's right, we're less then a week away from the first public update of the game in two years. Of course, some of you are already playing it. And not reporting any of the bugs! I know they're there, I've found tons of them. But that's okay, as long as you're enjoying the game, minus all the bugs.

This update has been a lot more work than I was planning it on being. All the changes are so dispersed throughout the game it takes a l...

9/13 Status Update

I'm still in away from home, but I'll be headed back home pretty soon. Yesterday I put out the $5 test build for Naked Ambition .83. It should be pretty close to the final, minus some bugs people hopefully find. I added a few new things this week, the biggest being a bunch of unique lines of dialogue for the Princess to say in her lessons instead of the same one every time. The idea is that at the start she'll comment on how she's not very good at it, but by the end she'll talk about how she'...

9/6 Status Update

A quick update this week to get things back on track. I didn't get much done to be honest because things have been pretty hectic. I flew to France and have been moving around a lot, including having a train cancelled which was fun. Now you might be saying, "but Apollo, with all that travel time surely you broke out the laptop and got things done!" And sure, that happened a bit. But not really on stuff that's worth really talking about. So what am I talking about?

Well one thing I saw wa...

9/1 Status Update

Sorry for the late update, I'm on the road right now and the first stop was a family reunion. Well the Internet was a lot less existent than I thought it was going to be so I couldn't post this. I'll be away from home for a few weeks, but Naked Ambition is mostly text files that are easy to edit on my laptop so things still should get done while I'm on the road. I'm visiting family on the East coast of the US, then family in France, then friends elsewhere in Europe. But who cares about that s...

8/22 Status Update

This week I've been working on Naked Ambition. I think we're past the point where I can just pat myself on the back and say "look, I'm working on it!" and expect applause. Now's the time to actually get results. So far, things have been going pretty well. Despite being a game with like 12 routes in it and webs of various characters and events, it's pretty easy to work on. So good job, 2019 Apollo Seven, the structure and code mostly make sense. That's always a huge risk of going back to proje...

8/15 Status Update

Netoria Tactics: Revolution is done! ...Minus some bugs that will need to be fixed. But I really don't plan to add any more content, although of course I said this before. Circumstances change, but those circumstances really don't seem like they'll align in a way that makes more content make sense. For one, a big part of the reason for doing the update was because the scene artist for the series, Rad Lad, didn't have anything to do. But now they're working on Netoria 2 Act 2 content, so there...

This patch fixes a few problematic bugs, mostly related to grope triggers. It also fixes being able to be on the non-femboy and femboy routes for Vivian and Gwen at the same time, and a few bugs related to the new recollection room.

8/8 Status Update

The Femboy Carwyn update comes out on Monday, the 11th. Why Monday instead of the usual Friday I do? IDK, that's what the publisher wants. It gives me a few extra days to make sure everything is in place so I'm okay with it. As usual, the work has expanded to fill the time allotted. Even though I've been done with what was the planned content, I've been changing and adding things to make the experience better. Moving when exactly scenes happen in the story, making new ones, etc to make the pr...

8/1 Status Update

Sorry about the lack of update last week. I was at Comic-Con, so I didn't have a lot of time to write stuff. And there wasn't that much to talk about anyway. I wrote a little bit about the de-listing of stuff on Itch fiasco and all that, but I figured people didn't care that much about my opinion and take on it. And that take was mostly that it didn't matter very much to me in the end, so it wasn't interesting really.

But I'm back this week! We're still in femboy Carwyn land, but not fo...

7/18 Status Update

Another week come and gone, what happened over here at Apollo Seven Games? Basically what's been happening. A side effect of the publishing deal I did is the date I release content is a lot more firm now. So what I'm working on when has less variation than it used to. I want to make sure I get things done on time, which means less playing around with other stuff to be safe. I know that if I spend time doing design for random things that attract my interest those random things are likely to be...

7/12 Status Update

This update is on Saturday instead of Friday mostly because I couldn't figure out what to write. A lot of stuff did happen this week, but most of them aren't that interesting to talk about. So I guess I'll just list them out.

1: I had people playtest the last levels of Netoria 2 Act 1. The feedback was good so that means Act 1 is even more almost done! It's so almost done it's basically done! But it's not done because I haven't bothered to do annoying connective tissue stuff because of ...
