I am not. The extra renders would reduce speed of releases by a lot.
What the hell man?! More changes?!
Don't worry, hopefully like the others this is a good thing.
Lately I've been trying to downsize all the administrative stuff that I'm doing for the game. Especially in light of the real job hammering me a little harder than usual it's been a goal to try and wrangle as many minutes of the day as possible for work on the game.
The live streaming is good and I'm going to continue doing that indefinitely. However, putting a stream together is a bit of a production. I have to figure out what I'm working on. Get my assets ready. Slot the time and figure out when I can get an uninterrupted block for a stream. Then I have to build the notifications and post them on Discord, Subscribestar, Patreon, and sometimes two or more threads on F95.
Anyway, short story made long, we're not doing that anymore. Now that I'm bouncing back and forth between various pieces of software it's no longer efficient for me to just put together a Daz Stream during a convenient block of time during the day.
Going forward (starting like right now) I'm just going to sit down, flick on the camera and the mic, and get to work. I may get in an hour, I may get in four. I may get in four one hour streams during the day when it's convenient. Who knows.
The point is that I'll be free to utilize every free moment of the day to get something done on the game. A stream may just be asset creation and modification. It may be working on a scene. It may be Character creation. But whatever it is, the camera will be on and as often as possible the mic will be up.
For those who still want notifications of streaming times, I encourage you to sign up to Picarto. It's free and from there you can request notifications be sent when I go live.
Also, since I have a 12 video limit on Picarto and many of you seem to be utilizing this feature, I'll work on putting together a directory where $5+ patrons can download any previous stream. (I've been recording them all along there just hasn't been much reason or space to post access). This will ensure that if I run 12 mini streams during the week (not very likely) you'll still have access to the previous week's work and beyond.
I'm excited about stepping up the pace of development. Let's throw this thing into high gear!
Salute!
So I gave this game a go. I like the feel of it and the idea that your approach will change how the girls interact.
Couple of questions.
1: Is it best to fully stick to one colour path? Or does the game forgive the player for mixing it up a little?
2: Emily is acting a little weird. I admitted to cheating and she storms off and I hear nothing more from her. Then a few days later you talk to her at the pool and she acts like nothing ever happened?

1. IIRC the developer has said to experience all content available in the game, it's better to play a full blue and a full red path.
2. Again iirc what happened to Emily is perfectly normal and she definitely still remembers that the MC cheated on her. Just play on if you haven't already

I prefer to play "gray" (or neutral) in those games. Playing full red or full blue without thinking of your choices is a bit sad. Then just ask at the start "are you blue or red" and don't propose other choices after that
Damn had hoped it wasn't that black & white (or red & blue I suppose!).1. IIRC the developer has said to experience all content available in the game, it's better to play a full blue and a full red path.

As for Emily, it doesn't seem normal. One moment she storms off, understandably angry. Then next time you talk she's all "I love you, sweetheart!" and the MC doesn't remark on it being odd or anything. Feels like a glitch tbh.
Don't take my word for it as I might be wrong about what the dev said. Anyways he frequents this thread so he will likely give confirmation

To add to what the others said:
The game scores "blue" and "red" for each character. When one character chapter comes up, it will play out differently, depending on whether this character is majority blue or majority red at the beginning of the chapter. (Within the chapter itself of course it is about the decisions you make in it) It does not matter how far you're in the blue or red. 100% blue is the same as 51% blue.
So in terms of a single character, you can go all in, you can mix and match, you will get the same result as long as you're the same color. If you want blue, you can still choose red on some decisions for roleplaying reasons as long as you do not overdo it.
It is not important what colors other girls are, only what the one specific (the one you clicked at the beginning of the chapter) is. So you can have a red Nanami, a blue Amana - nobody but those two cares and, say, Amanda will play out the same whether it is this way or the other way around.
The "go all red in one playthrough then all blue in the next" is just the easiest way to be sure you have seen all available content, it is by no means necessary to do this. You can mix them up in one playthrough, then do the opposite colors on the next one.

Story: Nanami, Lola
Art: Jane
RomanHume , really appreciate the MC's portrait/skin tone options. Adds more visual variety to the MCs in these visual novel games.

Am I the only one who genuinely finds Nanami to be the best girl? Like I just love the sexual tension between her and the MC, also the thought of taming a feisty girl like her, just gets me going. There aren't many games that I have played in which the relationship between the MC and a dominant girl is realistically portrayed, I think this game is an exception (credit to the author for this). Usually when you get such girls, they turn submissive or really nice towards our character. It makes me happy to see that Nanami isn't like that, her attitude pretty much remains the same. I mean she is a bit nicer, but she retains her original personality, and that's what keeps me cumming... I mean coming back to her. Wanting to see that soft side of her that she only slightly reveals during the sexual moments.
Yup, dominating her has been my favorite part so far.

As of now, 90% of the game, maybe more. 2.0 is just one chapter as of now, with no introduction to the characters or story.
You're absolutely welcome and thank you a ton for the support. It's a labor of love and not one I look to give up before it's done.
Right now the only characters with NTRish type content planned is The Wife Emily and the Boss Nanami. It's only planned for those characters because it potentially builds into a good story arc. But of course it is optional and can be turned off. Doing this swaps out those scenes with alternative versions to ensure you get the same amount of gameplay but void of the fetishs you don't want.
Details above.
Android is a long slow process. I've started to work on the build but my inexperience with the Android platform as well as the long process involved in compiling, installing and testing is making this a very tedious thing. At this point in time I have no idea when this could be completed. It's a suck answer, but sadly an honest.
Yes they are both getting expanded story lines.
Probably not going to happen if I"m being honest. I don't think I could write that scene without it coming off as pure pornographic cheese.
Lot of ups and downs. The first big down was that I started as just the writer. Then everyone bailed and I had to learn how to do 3D Art and Renpy programming from Scratch. Then pandemics hit and slowed things down a bit but I used that time to double down on my learning and streamline the programming process. I'm finally hitting my stride and hoping development will be a lot smoother in 2021.
Lola is the transgender character you can love up if you have trans turned on.
If you're playing v2.0 then you need to "replicate" an old save to see the new content. Everything else is still in v1.0 waiting for conversion to the new platform.
It was a fun idea that I enjoyed making. But when I totaled up the time spent making those alternate images there just wasn't enough of a pay off. Not doing the alternate modes let me get an entire scene done for Emily in about a day and a half.
The game is designed with no particular path in mind. And jumping back and forth between paths won't break anything. In fact there are period sections of dialogue tailored to those kinds of transitions here and there.
The Emily thing you mention is a continuity error that crept in while I was transitioning from a team environment to working solo. As the v1.0 content is integrated into the v2.0 platform I have a plan to remedy that breach in the story.
