interesting so far , growing to like the aspect of picking 1 (or maybe 2 depending on the girl) LI and trying to keep things smooth.

Def have a play through reserved for the 4 women shown so far, though Alexa might be too crazy (a weakness of mine smfh).

.... those braided rows look awful tho, dear god.

Greetings!

I was approached by an awesome chap last week (Thank you Zhaiel), wanting to do a Spanish translation of the game. I took some time to implement translations as an option in the preferences menu. This will go live with the launch of EP3 and can be switched with the click of a button on the fly. Maybe that's not very exciting for most, but it's quite exciting for me, as it'll allow me to reach a wider audience eventually.
Project upgrades have been completed and also made some new characters for EP3. I'm in the process of making younger versions of certain ones, but I'll keep them under wraps for now. Also completed a small portion of writing for a few scenes.

Have a good week, you're awesome!

I don't think "Click to continue" was the best idea.
Sometimes it skips a whole pack of interesting pictures.

Of course, I'm here for naked muscular girls, not for love stories. It's strange that the first scene was without genitals. And yes, in the first two parts, Natasha's model looked better. I look forward to continuing.

The first time you ever get to see 'Click to continue', a warning pops up that tells you exactly that. So yeah, if you haven't read that, this will happen... ;)

I have read it. but some scenes are boring and the pictures change very slowly.
Now is not 2012 and not 2017. There are a lot of games (and videos too), each of which takes time. There is no time or desire to waste time on such trifles. (google translate) Sry)))
I think it should be optional.
And further.
Most of the games are abandoned by developers. Maybe you shouldn't go into details like combat in order to save energy for the main part of the game.

Bummer was looking forward to the game after reading the intro and seeing screenshots. Then went and downloaded then I saw no future harem option in the intro. I'm grateful, but I almost feel like the ignorance is bliss statement applies in this case to me. Ah well good luck to the Dev.

Hey all,
The last week and a bit, I've mostly been unifying and upgrading the characters. With UE5's recent update, a lot of missing features are now available to me which I didn't have access too before. On a technical level, I can have some decent subsurface scattering on the skin (You can see it on the MC's ear in the preview image) and better translucency lighting which makes the hair look slightly better among other things. To put things into perspective, I started EP1 with UE5 Early Access, EP2 with UE5.03 and currently have upgraded to UE5.1 for the EP3 release.

There will be more tweaks I'll make along the way I would suspect, but for now it's good enough to move forward and start rendering the scenes I've written. That will be my focus for the next several weeks!

Do let me know if you think it's an improvement or if it's getting worse! It's difficult getting feedback, working as a 1-man team...

All the best!

€: Could only upload one of the 4 pictures. If it works again later I add the other 3.

Okay but what if the love story and the combat are the main part of the game?

Hello!

This'll probably be the shortest dev-log I've ever written. No development of new complex systems, no more massive upgrades, just simply scene rendering. It's moving along quite nicely.

I did unfortunately have a setback with the MC's skin upgrades as they wouldn't play nice in the further away renders. For some reason, the renderer would just blur out too much of the detail and he started to look weirdly painted. I had to revert back to the Episode 2 version, which I think still looks pretty decent anyway.

That's it for now I guess, and sorry I couldn't say anything more interesting. Everything is very well established and rather smooth sailing! There will be a few new additions outside of the story which are scheduled for a little later, but for now I'll continue the scene rendering.

I wouldn't be able to tell you the exact amount of episodes.

I try to keep each episode to roughly the same amount of time (if I can end the finale I planned for the episode at that time), but that means cutting and pasting bits into the next release. I may have planned my main story beats for 4 episodes in total, but that can become 7 or 8. Sometimes I come up with something for a character that didn't exist before but adds a lot, and as such, will extend the overall length and possibly push other parts into another episode.
how many episodes will the game have?

Heya,

I'm currently working on one of the larger/longer scenes in the upcoming episode.

There will be at least one more fightthis episode , but I may do a second. A single fight does take a lot of time to create, especially with the addition of new moves that can be unlocked for your chosen disciplines in this episode.

A lot of you quite enjoyed the combat system, but I know there are quite a few that don't or simply can't be bothered more than once with multiple saves, and I understand that. I've had some discussions about it with the lovely folk in my Discord and its triggered some ideas. I was struggling with the idea to just simply add 'skip' function which kills off a lot my hard work and I personally hated the idea of presenting an 'answer checklist' that would then allow you to proceed the story. You don't just fight in a sparring match, there's also other interactions that present itself at certain times like the ability to flirt. I'd need to take these options into account, so you wouldn't be punished for not wanting to experience the combat system.

I think the best option to move forwards is by giving two options before a fight starts:
-Play the fight
-Automatic sequence


The first option is obvious, you play the whole thing as you know it. The second option plays the fight sequence automatically and presents you with a possible flirt option somewhere during that sequence. It just becomes part of the story without enforcing the gameplay element. It would still allow me to show some of the work I put into it, but you wouldn't have to stress your brain about it and just watch it unfold as per the usual VN format. It would result in an automatic win as well.

Basically, for the ones that love it, nothing changes. But for the ones that don't enjoy it, you may enjoy the alternative instead!

Let me know your thoughts.

All the best,

Ezy
