It's a good remaster with a better start, but the wait hasn't been justified since there's not much content. At this rate, It will take a long time to get to the previous length.
it's a remake(said so by the creator recently) and gotta agree with your point there.

Amuses me how the detractors are either below 50 comment accounts or people saying the dumbest things imaginable, proving they have no idea how anything works.







so according to your intelligence, if someone is new to the site or comments little, they have no right to express their opinion, or we are idiots who don't know the games, woww, what a genius I found.

This should never have progressed beyond the "in-development" stage, and the approach to achieving this effect should have been reconsidered, redoing entire thing properly. Even on a very strong PC this makes "play" very unattractive (stutters/visual glitches). I wonder if he's tracking mouse XY and redrawing new image without any pause.
I'm pretty sure he uses parallax or a variant, browsing the code quickly he doesnt touch the timebase parameters so yeah, the renderer will repeat as fast as it can.


Also, it takes some real mental gymnastics to call anyone a troll when you're trying to sell a weeks work for a years salary.

He thinks pausing patreon for a month or so negates all criticism towards that. That's why he did that.
As for work... Yea. Not two weeks (testing art results/workflow/rewrite/make small code changes to UI takes a bit of time), but it can be done in two months easy.
8 months for pretty much 30min release of AI art is sad.

I have been watching this game for a while because I saw people praising it as one of the best NTS games. I guess it's a good time to pick it up? Is there any sex in it yet or just strictly teasing?

Have sex, but just with the protagonist in the moment, with other people is more teasing in the remake, the old version have some times your gr is masturbated by anothers, but the remake preview is on the early stages of the old version.

I've played this like a year ago and I really loved this but based on the recent comments, there still doesn't seem to be a progressed with Terrace and Ayumi or even with just the story in general.... I guess I'll just go back here in 2026.

That's a shame, how long do you think it would take to reach actual spicy stuff? I should probably forget about it and check once in a while.

Hi.

Quick replies to the main points:

- Performance issues are on my radar and a priority for the next release. Already working on optimizations. It's not an easy one to fix but there's a few things I want to try. Thanks to everyone for the technical info.

- Character proportions haven't changed (if anything MC is larger). This is still a NTS game. People only tend to react when it hits too close to home. Keep this in mind when you decide if this is a game for you or not!

- On development strategy: I worked hard all this time and it gets expensive. The scope evolved from remaster to full remake with full new scenes, completely rewritten dialogue, and many CGs. I gave 2 months of free development time as a gesture of goodwill for the delays. (Note: majority of images from Act 1 are actually done, but writing hasn't caught up with it). It's okay if you prefer to wait or can't afford the subscription. There are many ways to support the project. My message to anyone that isn't happy with the above statements would be to not support me and if you are and regret it you can DM on Patreon for the refund, no issues at all.

- I really appreciate all the positive feedback about the art, choice system, and character development comments. I made some risky choices and am glad a lot of people understand the vision. I also respect anyone that is able to take a fresh look at it. It's not like the art looks like the first teasers anyway. It took a lot of trial and error to get to where it is today.

(Note: Known haters/trolls are on the ignored list - sorry if I missed your message, I'm sure it's important)
Hi Torimiata! My gf and I just got done playing the preview for the remake and wow is it amazing! You really did great with this so far and we are so excited to see what the new scenes look like going forward! Also fuck the haters your writing is absolutely amazing and we both love the Greek style sex themed party. It really brings something interesting and new to a genre that has a lot of similar story board. Lastly and I completely respect anonymity but my arm is being twisted by my gf to ask; she strongly believes you are female based on how you write as well as your name and logo. Careful she has her eyes on you haha. Thanks

Loving the remake! It's much higher quality than before. Really impressive.

The 3d effect is awesome and almost all of the scenes are even hotter than before!

I think there's a little bit too much foreshadowing and explanation of the nts kink though. I liked the way the old version kept you in the dark a bit. But that's a small thing.

Speaking of small things, the size discussion with Ayumi was interesting. Not sure exactly how I feel about it, but I'm excited to see how it pans out.

This is still my favorite game on this site and I can't wait to get back to where we left off and more.
