I'll update the progress bar when I finish with current animations I'm working on
Yo man, I loved your game a few years back, and you seem to be of good faith, so I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. But can you honestly explain why it's been taking so excruciatingly long to drop an actual content update ?

Seriously, in 6 months of work*, what your reports show is that you've done no coding at all, virtually no rendering, and haven't even finished the story writing even though that's been your only focus for half a year. This clearly looks like a slow-burn abandoned project incoming at best, and subscriber-milking at worst.

*(not even talking about the 2-whole-year remake with no added content)

Because work takes time. I plan the story that goes beyond just one update, do the writing with separate paths for different characters that I want to have personality and not just to be just fucktoys, not that I can say I'm successful of it fully, but that's my intent. I do the renders and animations, that I would like to look better than it could be. Coding is always "learn something new" thing, well, everything is. It's all effort. If I don't display something, that doesn't mean I do nothing. If you're interested, you can read my progress updates posts, that I do when I can say something meaningful about it. There are more details about what is done and what to expect. Should I tell about people having a life? Probably shouldn't because for some reason devs shouldn't have one. But that's a joke.

I wish that something substantial was that easy to make. Or that I was an all-knowing all-mighty person that can write thousands of line long coding scripts and make thousands of renders with complex animations in a few days, but I'm not that good. I do what I can with what I have to achieve something I would enjoy myself.

Okay, on the one hand, thanks for your prompt answer. On the other hand, I sense a bit of aggressiveness in your answer which I feel is not warranted at all. I can totally get that you are new to programming, that you may be alone on this, and that you can't spend your whole week on this project.

But you also need to acknowledge that this pace is at least 3 times slower than other similar projects of comparable quality.

So yeah, I can't talk about story writing and haven't dabbled so much with 3d design and rendering. But about coding, I'm a devops engineer and have worked with many programming languages and frameworks, so I perfectly know that RenPy programming is almost nothing to learn after you have made a first project with it. A VN is a very simple codebase, it's just branching, incrementing variables and maybe a bit of work for incorporating animations, but you've already done this before. Adding new update code becomes simple linear work WRT to story content after a while. So I don't get what you're referring to by "learn something new", the only added complexity over time is the multiple branching path, if done right, in order to keep the story coherent. And btw I highly believe if you pushed through it at the time, you could have made a lot more money via subscription and be able to hire a developer by now in order to alleviate the burden.

Anyway, I thank you once again for your reply where I got to hear your honest thoughts, and wish you all the best in this project, which no one can deny is a quality one above the generic AVN crowd on here, and which could reach among the top ones with more content. Good luck !

PS: I can offer my help btw if you would like for the coding part.

PS2: If I could ask for just one thing, please add more juicy helen-sized tits in the game :love:

I love hypocrites.

No "aggressiveness" to be seen, right?

It's this day of the year! A was born today and continues to create her magic outside Hogwarts!

Patreon post image.gif
Jokes aside, besides her awesome skills that she continues to improve from day to day with putting many hours in work, she is an outstanding person and just a humble human being that deserves every kind word you can think of. So please wish her everything best along with me, so she can get every possible positivity and continue to please us with her amazing work on wallpapers and much more!

For example, if you missed my previous progress update, she drew a spectacular new UI for the next update, that I hope you will like as much as I did, and I can't wait to share it with everyone once it's possible!

And as a little present, here is a custom CG that's called "DD&Lexi Night"!

Enjoy!

The more harem games I play on this site the more I appreciate this game's early game over. Really like the fact that your choices actually impact the story. As opposed to these on rails you only miss a sex scene here and there choices. I still need to pursue individual or pairings of girls to see how little I can do and keep going.

I noticed this game when the remake came out. I thought I would start playing after the next update. Who would have thought that it would take so long .:ROFLMAO:
Another couple of months and the game will enter DrPinkCake territory in terms of time between updates.

Hello everyone

It's been some time since the last progress update, so there is something to share.

The progress itself. You can see the completion status down below if you interested in percentage. I try to update it as frequent as I can show the progress. If you don't know yet where to find it - you can check on it in the above section of this Patreon page, in my discord server or on itch.io page.

For what I've done and what's left! I just finished the second set of animations and the scene that it happens in. Though, there are two more small animations that I also did after the first set and before the second. So I can say that three girls received their attention animation-wise already. The last scenes I worked on takes place at the Helen's apartment, WIP teaser of which you can see down below. It's only a living room, and a clean version of it. Let's say Helen cleaned it up for this shot just for you, who knows what the mess was there before (≖⩊≖). Apart from the animation, it makes four big scenes and five small ones done.

And that leaves me two big scenes and one more set of animation to work on. One scene in this living room with all the characters and one late night date. Who will be the girl of this update, you think? How long it will take to finish the update is impossible to predict, but I've been prescribed vitamins, and I'm able to get more work done, last month was even more productive than most of the summer as it feels, so I'm hoping for the best. I feel inspired to finally be able to share something new with all of you and move the story further of this update. As there will be big things in the next update that I've already mentioned in the previous progress update.

While we're here, I also can't help but admit that my audience connection is not the best it could be. As I don't like to spoil things about updates, so there is not much to tell besides that work is being done. I could post "bloopers" - weird non-contexual images that could sometimes funny, but it's not something most people would like. Or just more spoiler-free previews and WIPs along the development? Vote below, and if you have better ideas, please let me know. Any feedback is always welcome.

And as always, thank you everyone for the support and interest in the project!

Your DD !
