Zac may explain why Alyssa is on this fork rather than the rest of the lesbian content, but I want tho recall Alyssa's dialogue in her apartment hinted at someone other than Zac.

But there's one thing you neglect. There're also that many renders because of the variety of choices. If you play the game in one go you will miss almost the half of the renders and text. The yoga event would have around 30% less renders if there wouldn't be a special choice! You really should wait for the next update first and then say which renders could be left out and I will explain why I used them. Some are still mocking that I'm using 100 renders just for walking from place to place. But I already stopped these kind of unnecessary renders since a couple of updates. If there's a walking scene then it also has a reason now. I'm also trying to use one render for longer conversations. It's hard to believe for you now but even in those around 1300 upcoming renders I tried my best to be as selective as possible! But I just needed them to tell the story the way I'm visioning it. So, just wait for the update and then we can talk again.

OK, yes, there are choices and branching paths that have to be taken into account and therefore require additional renders, I will grant you that, and if there are animations then those also contribute to the total render count. But I still believe that all that could be done in less renders and still achieve the same result, and I appreciate very much that you have endeavoured to lessen certain things.

I just hope that we will not see the now "3 updates per playable day" structure result in this game taking even longer if each part of the day balloons to 500+ or even 1000+ renders per update. To me, having 1000-1500 renders for a whole day, including those for choices, branches, and animations, would still be a tremendous achievement and accomplish the vision of telling a very meaningful and detailed story.

I would need to check on the dialog concerning the mysterious one.
As far as I remember all Alyssa said was that he was a gentleman and knew how to treat a lady also it was said when Zac was not in the room and why be so cryptic about it?

Hi guys, I found out this game will be finished in more than 12 years.

Since we are in day 11 and the developer already planned 30 days = 30-11= 19 days left.

Every playable day has 2 updates = 19 days x 2 updates = 38 updates left

Every update takes on Average 4 months = 38 updates x 4 months = 152 months = 12 years and 6 months to finish the game.

I hope you are still alive by then.

Last I checked there is no evidence Zac is envolved in any M/S content. Not to say there there won't be any, only that there is no evidence of any

Thanks for that.
Well that leaves it wide open it could be a man/woman or next doors cat even.
Is Alyssa teasing Sophia and why be so secretive about it.
At least we know that it is not Bennet,thank god.

I can't imagine it's a new character, though the guide is out-of-date. Is there anyone else who shares their orbit? Maybe one of the other soccer moms or Zac's teammates?

(Myself, I'm disappointed she's too old to be Sophia's second job's daughter.)

That quality goes hand in hand with quantity is what you say. For me quality is the fastidious work on every single render including everything from the lighting over scene subtleties to the smallest pose and expression detail. The quantity is just a byproduct which emerges by the amount of renders I need to tell a scene!




First of all I needed 4 month for 1300 renders because 1 month is for programming, translation and render editing! During this time I also keep on writing on the story and the dialogues of the scenes!

After the next update you can tell me which renders were redundant and I will either tell you you're right or explain you why not.

Btw, not every game day is similar huge! For example the upcoming in-game Sunday is one large event which spreads over the morning until the evening!

And I also didn't introduce any new characters like many like to criticize. I'm already done with it for a while. If some new characters appear then they won't play a big role and just are a story staffage! All characters of the next update except Don Morello are in the game since the demo!

Hey. I am not your patron. But I will express my opinion. I like your job. A story without "superfluous", according to many, content will be similar to everything else. Therefore, your concept must be preserved. But it would be appropriate, on your part, to try to attract assistants. Those who, at a decent level, can implement your ideas at a level that suits, first of all, you.

This will speed up the process and satisfy the vast majority of AWAM fans.

An important question that worries everyone! Do you want acceleration?

Answer yourself and if you also want acceleration, then you will have more patrons. At least in my face.

Regards and best wishes.
