This game has somewhat similar premise to Midlife Crisis, but much less content. This game has better renders so far.
I played Midlife Crisis almost whole day today, and it is fun game. This one is on a good path but it should pick up on content.
Hi Hamlet17, if you've been reading the last few pages, you'd have noticed that the dev is back on. There has been a few difficulties in the last months and now only one dev, RomanHume, remains on the team. I won't talk for him, but rest assured that the guy knows how to put out quality content, be it in writing or rendering, so your plea for content shall be answered :)

2019-08-20 News

Not much to say at the moment except that the last ten days have been busy. I've put another 85 renders into the bank and I've still get several hours ahead of me today. So hopefully by Friday I'll be past 100.

Now that the gui enhancements are in place and tested, I've been able to focus solely on the art for the second half of 1.0.7. Soon I should have some scenes ready for play testing with the actual release not far behind that. I'm loathe to give out eta's as that has bit me in the ass many times previously. Just know that I'm working tirelessly to get this done because I'm ready to move on to some other characters.

While it's not writ in stone, I think next up is going to be getting back to the wife and Cassie, with some more Jane and Amanda to follow. Then I'll tie up with Monica and Lupita to come full circle. We'll see. I figure after this next update drops I'll have a moment to survey where I'm at and figure out the best way to proceed.

It has been fun working on the second half of this update. As previously mentioned, it will be the first one that consists entirely of my labor and it's been exciting to develop my own visual style. I look forward to coming back around and working on the other characters to further develop the look and feel of the story.

It's great to have a partner to help out with all the visuals and artwork that goes into this game, but on the other hand, it's also enjoyable to create the image as you envisioned it at the time of writing. Very much a double edged sword.

In any case, just wanted to let you know that we're still charging ahead and much work is getting done. I look forward to delivering the remainder of this chapter to you, but in the meantime, enjoy a teaser of Nanami.

Cheers mates!

That is very good news if the wife will be in the following update (especially if she's been misbehaiving behind Rogers back). I've been waiting for more Emily content to throw some money your way. By the way, your game has some of the very best dialogue I've come across. Would you say that it just kind of flows naturally for you, or is it just very well thought out? Or a bit of both perhaps?

Cheers right back at ya brother!

Open the preferences. Play with the "Skip" stuff. You probably want to skip unseen text. Just don't go too far.

Tempting but there is a particular content i am waiting for before i feel like i would want to write a review. That is the romance of Cassie and possible impregnation. When that happens i will definitely write a review.
Perfectly fair. Hoping to bring that to you as soon as possible.

I finally got time to make a first run through of this VN. I must say I enjoyed all the characters so far. Nanami is very much scary and arousing at the same time. I have mad love for Lola she was a sweetheart.

Kind of hilarious that I gave sage advice to the other three young girls of the game and tried to stay true to Emily. I fear that flash drive is going to return and bite me in the ass at some point in the future. Lola totally made it worth it though. I can't wait to see any further updates and all the changes you've been working on.
Thank you for playing and offering up your feedback. I actually had a lot of fun designing Lola and wanted her to come off as a sympathetic character. From all the response I've gotten I seem to have hit the mark. There will be another scene or two with Lola/Lita later to wrap up their mini-story. So while they may not be a main love interests, hopefully people will be satisfied with what's there.

In my playthrough Roger ended up telling the truth about the sex with Nanami to his wife. I can only imagine what is going to happen if she find out he also had sex with Jane, the friend of their daughter, and Lola. :LOL::p
Even the most forgiving of wives may not support your decisions. :p

As for 1st-3rd, I like both, it depends on what is going on in the scene.

That said, I have a sneaking suspicion that one reason so many games are 1st person here is that is one less body you need to render per image... :whistle:
And not to criticize too harshly, but given the mediocrity in some of those first person games, I think it also shows a lack of confidence or perhaps creativity when it comes to visual composition. But who am I to judge. I'm only now learning myself.

This game has somewhat similar premise to Midlife Crisis, but much less content. This game has better renders so far.

*ahem*....I mean, I don't mean to brag, but I think you meant to say, Midlife Crisis has a similar premise to my game. After all, we released our first version 10 months before Midlife Crisis came out. We just suffer a lack of content because after a year of development we did a reboot and most recently lagged a bit due to staffing changes.

But you know, I appreciate the sentiment and thanks for the compliment on our renders. I hope they only continue to get better! Cheers mate and thanks for playing!

Very much appreciate the vote of confidence! I shall not disappoint!

i like this. its very well done and good work developer
Thank you for playing!

Hehehe... Nanami is judging you bunch of pervs. :p
To be fair, Nanami is judging everyone, always, at all times. If she's not condescending, she's sleeping and dreaming about condescending.

Can't wait to dominate her some more... :p
You shall have your chance soon my friend!

Well then I better get to it because I can use all the support I can get. =D

Honestly the dialogue kind of writes itself. When writing I always start with the characters. I think about their past, their present and where they want to be in the future. I sort out their mannerisms, attitudes, and think about how they behave in public and in private. I contemplate how they relate to each other and what that relationship looks like. After I have a thorough understanding of who they are, they pretty much take on a life of their own.

A perfect example from this last release is the interaction between Lita and Lola in the basement by the elevator. That scene was not in the original script. But what happened was when building the renders I thought, "Well this boring, this poor guy just sitting down here by himself in a dark basement. He needs company. " Rather than create a new character I thought, well, I'll just use whichever girl the MC isn't fucking and drop her in.

But then seeing Lita and Lola in a room together, well, they just sort of started interacting on their own. Next thing I know, these two chicks are getting feisty with each other and I'm just kind of watching it play out. It was less like writing a scene and more like just recording what these two girls had to say to each other. My task at that point is to just know when to step in and make them stop.

When I intimately know who the characters are, it's easy for me to just let them go off and do their own thing. Sometimes, it leads to entirely new and unplanned scenes like the one described above. They speak in their own words, my job is to just take notes, and make sure that whatever they end up saying is relevant to the story.

Can't wait to give Cassie some more of my attention. ;)
She can't wait to receive it. =P

The next release will include a new "Jump Menu" that will let you go to any scene you want. I previously posted the details of that here.

she looks very serious and beautiful at the same time. i like it. keep up the good work developer
I shall endeavor to continue delivering the goods! I enjoy communicating with players, so if at any time you think the quality is slipping, by all means, let me know. It's up to you folks to keep me honest. Cheers mate!
