There is a paywalled post about progression on his Patron page back in March. Can some Patron "decrypt" it here?

Any more specific reason why? I wouldnt be too concerned considering the dev is kinda established, isnt he?
well established and established, 1 full game (was nice) and this at early stages.

Finally get the time to start playing ch2, it is clear that there are Lis in the lifeguard and rebel, but I wonder will there have Lis in the king's team? Like nikki or scarlett? :unsure:

we don't know anything about lis yet, only dev knows and for sure he won't spill the beans. consider every female as possible li.

Still we can guess at least 4 or 5 of them easily.

sure but even then we can't be sure.
Can't be 100% sure, no. But we can build pretty strong educated guesses based on the game itself.

As of the end of Chapter 2, six characters have relationship point variables, and all are used in-game. That's a pretty big indication they will likely be LIs or SGs. The story can easily change and any of them could be written out or more added later, so no it's not 100%. But as of the end of Chapter 2 they are important enough to track. The six characters are:
  • Carla
  • Emily
  • Fiona
  • Nikki
  • Riley
  • Zoe

Finished the playthrough, the model and render are great as always, but not having a harem like the last game that make you need to have several saves in order to see all contents is still painful.:cautious:

You might not believe it, but for me that is a plus! A big one actually, harems are to ... boring?!
What?!? You don't like meeting a LI, they instantly fall in love with MC, and then you toss them onto the ever growing pile of other LIs that are all perfectly happy to share or never be seen by the MC again? That's heresy! ;)

All kidding aside, I fully agree with you. I personally prefer this style of game, as the LI's have to be written strong enough that they can keep me hooked throughout the story. Sure they do follow the basic tropes, but the ones I really like are the ones that add a new angle or facet to the trope to make it feel more unique. What some see as boring repetition, to me is replayability. Many harem-based games that I've seen create LI's following the basic tropes but don't add really anything unique to them.

Hey everyone!

Sorry for such a long silence. I've been wanting to write this post for weeks, but I keep putting it off. I always think, "Okay, I'll write later, let me just work on another render now." Sometimes it gets silly, like over a month goes by, and I still haven't posted, even though I could've done it anytime.

Anyway, let's get to the real stuff. Work's going pretty well, though I’ve hit a few bumps. You know, the usual. My CPU cooler broke, I had to upgrade my SSD, and I dealt with some personal stuff. Just normal life things.

I just finished the toughest event in this episode, the lifeguard tryouts. It took about 500 renders! So far, I've got 620 renders done and a couple of animations. Things were a bit slow because of the crazy number of characters in these scenes and all the tiny details. I'll attach a few examples in the pinned files. Sometimes I drive myself nuts with this, but I've got this perfectionist side that wants every render to look 100% my best. It takes so much time, but I'm usually happy with how it turns out. I'll sit there wondering why I'm stressing over background characters that only 10-20% of players will notice, but I still do it. Yeah.

Now I'm starting on other events, and I'm hoping things will go faster since there’ll be way fewer characters in the scenes. Hooray! I'll try to make a couple of artworks this week. And as always, I'll try to write more often. I'll do my best.

Thanks to everyone for your support!
