I’m excited to share the development of my first visual novel, All About Amy!
While I see it as a continuation of Project Sage, I want to emphasize that it has its own unique vision and style.
I don’t claim to follow the exact same ideas as the original author, but rather, so you can think of it as a standalone game with its own direction.

The game follows Amy, a young woman who has just finished college and is beginning her journey to build a career and personal life in the city. Along the way, she experiences romantic adventures and struggles, with players shaping the course of her life through their choices. The game also features a unique voting system on Patreon, where you can help influence key scenes and story plot.



For now I invite you to vote there on updates to Amy’s look. I’ll be posting the updated look based on your votes in a couple of weeks!

In this dev diary, I will post updates regarding the game, and you are welcome to comment and ask questions.
Once the game is out, I’d appreciate it if you joined me in discussions and provided feedback.
Your input will help shape the story, and I’m excited to hear what you think.

In the meantime, feel free to visit the Patreon page and get involved in creating Amy!

For those familiar good with 'Project Sage' story do you happen to remember what Amy studied in college?
Also, was there any mention of Hank's brother name or other family members?
I'm trying to recall these details.

As I can remember we dont know what amy wanted to study, when she arrives to the new town she wants to apply to the university but for the change of country she needs to repeat the last year of school and she makes a deal with Mr. Miyagi to help her in this situation.

For Hank, I don't remember any of his relatives just he was from rich family and they had a lot of influence .

I made a gdoc with back in 2019, but it's also in the script.rpy if you extract the game:

Also, I'm not sure which Project Sage you're referring to.
I think the first game had scenes with Hank's "brother" (who were playing a trick on Amy), but her relationship with Hank was very different in "Act 1".

Just cast my votes in all the polls, I was off on the most popular choices in every poll except one, which is kind of funny.

Honestly it's been so long I don't really much from Project Sage beyond highlights and vibes (Paperwork was really good at setting the vibe)
Looking forward to seeing what you put together Gr@ff, personally I wouldn't mind at all if you stray away from the source material into your own thing.

Cool! Even if your votes didn’t match the majority, it’s fine—I try to balance things when opinions are split. Plus, I’ll cast my x4 weighted vote at the end, so things can still change.

Totally agree—Project Sage had a unique vibe, both naïve and well-written. My take on Amy is a bit different since she’s older, in a new setting, and has different goals in life.

BTW. If you click reply you can include quotes from the post you're responding to.
If you click quote you can build up a multiquote somehow, but i don't think i ever figured that out. ;)

Hey everyone! Now that Amy’s look is finalized, I’m moving forward with development.

Sorry for the quality of the bigger image, it isn’t the best—Daz3D crashed multiple times due to overloaded scene. To avoid this, I’ll need to be mindful of the lights and objects in each scene. volleyball1.png volley2.png

I’ll keep you all updated as I make progress :)
