Hello all I have updates about game progression and a message from MGUSER350, who is working on a significant mod for the game.
First about streams, recently Doc has been having multiple streams per day rather than just one, and also doing streams on what is meant to be days off (no stream days), as well as having some very long streams. Seems like he is really grinding hard and trying to get a lot of work done, he seems to really want to get the update out on time.
Unfortunately, he has largely broken away from his usual stream schedule, which used to have streams start at around 5pm, as a result his schedule went from being convenient and easy for me to collect information from to something that I am no longer able to reasonably be present for consistently. Such as streams in the middle of the night or while I'm at work, rather than the usual stream starting an hour after I get back home from work.
Despite this, he answers all my questions which allows me to get some information for you guys, I suppose I have a good rapport within the Discord community despite only being active there recently, likely due to my role with the guide, and recently with my role of providing information to people here.
He has recently implemented the Vera scene that I had made about in my previous stream post (he showed me each of the variations when I had asked), as well as the Martha scene from a few posts ago. He said once he is finished with these, he will switch to blind streams, these are streams where he does not share his screen as he works on the game, in order to implement scenes that he wants to keep more of a secret. I asked him if these would all be scenes that had teasers in the past and he claimed it would be a mix of scenes that had teasers and scenes we don't know anything about.
Now for the message from MGUSER350, he had made a comment to me on Discord which is the following;
To summarize the image, he has three screenshots side by side depicting the journal, each of the screenshots are in different languages which are Spanish, Portuguese and English.
Im excited but I understand what people are going to say about my comment about keeping my hopes up or I shouldn't be excited but I can't help it it's good seeing pictures and artwork knowing the game is getting worked on I just hope there's allot of good content to enjoy but other than that thank you for informing us golem98 I get happy and excited each time get a new update from you thanks again man
If you compile all the data with the previous releases, you'll start noticing an interesting pattern: View attachment 4894684
Based on these very scientific calculations, I predict the next update will be in roughly 7.2 years. The update will be a single frame that says 'IOU' with a frowny emoji. Also, at this point, Bones will be more kidney stone than man.

That's the type of talk is what probably slowed down on updates guys if everyone is a fan of game why keep criticizing him and insulting him we have no idea what he's going through depression, or trying to come up with new content we don't know the reason but everyone attacking him and keeps talking bad about him but you tell who in the right mind will feel encouraged to make a game when getting hate speech and having insults left and right sure he probably lied to us or maybe he didn't or maybe it was writers block trying to come up with something or it could be laziness I don't know but all I know is he's a human just like the rest of us he has emotions him still working on game is a plus in a right direction how many people abandoned game and it never got to get finished and he's over here still creating game might be a long time but don't you see the time line when he was talked bad to on here he stopped speaking and look at the years how the updates slowed down magnificently for once let's give it a month before saying anything let the man work and give us the great game we been waiting for so many years I'll probably get a allot of bad comments I'm not trying to offend nobody but I'm just looking at the facts I know people are probably going to say bones is milking the subscribers, bones is doing this and he's that like I said we have no idea what he's going through mentally but be grateful he hasn't given up on this game I know allot of people are probably upset with the slow updates and progress he's one man doing it all maybe one day he feels like working on it maybe the next he doesn't we don't know and we have to remember he has very own life and real work life too

I feel like a portion of the hate that Doc gets is just people doing it for the sake of it being a joke now. Regardless I would be optimistic if I were you, from what I've seen I have no concerns with the current state of development.

I'm not going to lie but can you imagine if you were a creator and the fans who love your game are upset with you

Facts honestly last I played I pretty much avoided all mia content. I'm here for milf's not a damn loli. Lucile already pushes that but she's hot enough it doesn't bother me much. Wish she wasn't as stupid though personally.
Why is thread tagged abandoned? Bones is actively working on an update to be released soon with new scenes for all main characters I just checked the discord.

I hope there are no tricks this time and this update is released in full, along with the content from the second part of v0.20.0 that we didn't get to see.

A little animation from today's doc stream. I didn't sit to the end of the stream, so it may not be the final version, but it's still beautiful View attachment lucile.mp4
Hello all there was yet another stream today, this time it contained new content. Yet again, Doc started the stream incredibly early in the day (or very late at night) so I missed part of it as I was asleep, and wasn't really able to be fully present for it as I had to get ready for and attend work. However, I had asked for someone to take screenshots on my behalf and we had a taker, Discord user Bluecollarotaku86 took multiple screenshots and even a short video of a new Lucille scene that Doc made.
Throughout the day, when I was able I took quick peeks at the stream to see if there was anything to report on, I had noticed what seemed to be Martha's phone bottom scene (reference bellow for those who don't know), but she had her apron on, so clearly this was a Martha in the kitchen event, which is currently one of those placeholder/not implemented scenes. It is likely that this will be for the following stream(s).
I had managed to have conversations/interactions with three Discord users in the following order; Don_Kallio, Benily Bendicated and Doc himself.
---
With Don_Kallio, I had asked for information about what had happened throughout the stream, what had triggered this was an interaction started by a request I had made for screenshots, which were later provided by Bluecollarotaku86. To summarize, Don stated that Doc has implemented the reworked intro scenes, he stated that Doc wants to make a wiggle/dance animation of Martha's ass in the kitchen (see reference image above) and he mentioned that the Martha dance/wiggle is meant to be part of an event that occurs the first time that David enters the kitchen.
Personally I find it likely that it will be used for the phone scene given that the pose for Martha is the same in each, and all Doc has to do it to swap in the already drawn Martha clothes and apply the same animation to them. I also believe that it's possible for both Lucille and Vera to have something similar as they both have the same type of scene as the Martha reference image already in game.
---
With Benily Bendicated, he described the Lucille walking scene as having needed more jiggle physics, and Doc making them (the stream viewers, or perhaps Subscribers?) give him permission to do it. I had mentioned the possibility of Doc doing something similar for both Lucille and Vera as he was doing for Martha, he said he wasn't so sure but he did add a quote from Doc in the past "updating all scenes to the new style for next update", though he added that it was said "some time back" as he put it. He also mentioned something about not remembering whether or not it was agreed upon.
What's interesting to me was multiple mentions of permission or some sort of greenlight required from others for Doc to go though with something. Based on the positive atmosphere, friendliness and comradery between the Discord users, I assume its a more light hearted thing where Doc allows for streamers to choose on whether or not he takes the time to add more details to a scene or whatever it is. Though I haven't personally seen this myself, however I've only been sitting through streams for a short while.
Benily's quote from Doc about updating all scenes to the new style, was actually something that I had been thinking about for awhile. I had come to the conclusion that the scale of what Doc was doing was starting to reach such a level that it could be considered something akin to a rework for the entirety of the game (excluding special events). Though I kept these thoughts to myself because I still wasn't entirely certain and didn't want to overdo it with my hypothesises on game development which were already quite common in my stream posts. There was also a point added by Benily which does hint towards this being the case, the game is making a jump from 0.20 to 0.30, a 0.10 increase rather than Doc's largest jumps of 0.03.
Benily stated that he has been following the game for the full 7 years of it's development just as I have, so I feel like he is invested enough, and has seen enough (notably with a focus on Discord as he has stated), that I believe what he said to be very likely. Keep in mind that I have only joined the Discord fairly recently, and stayed on F95 exclusively for nearly the entirety of the game's development, so I feel that Benily, and other active Discord members for that matter, would've been exposed to far more information than I or any other F95 exclusive users would've been.

With Doc, he said the following;
Lucile's new animation is for intro where she walks up the stairs and MC looks at her ass (previously the scene used the kitchen graphics, where she washes the dishes) Now it has the new animation. Also in the intro, Martha and vera have a close up to their bottoms, I plan to use new graphics for those with a little animation for consistency sake.
I'm not reworking the kitchen, library and phone close ups yet... but eventually I will. (Note: These are the scenes that are Lucille's and Vera's equivalent to the Martha reference image from above)
He described Martha's kissing and hug events as something that can be triggered from dialogue options.
After I asked him how much of the game would he guess that has been reworked/reshaded he said the following;
I'm not reshading everything. Just events that are used in the new update. I started reworking Lucile's hug event because it is used in a new event... and then I got carried away and reworked Martha's and Vera's again for consistency sake.
I did remake Lucle's pantry event though, and maybe a couple more things. But I'm not actively reworking EVERYTHING
but with time everything will get either reworked or reshaded to the new style
