Lads, come on in!
Check out if you'd like, another chunk of scenes went through the grinder this past week. I'll be keeping things in the intro short again -- I'm sure you want to jump right into it!

Part X Progress!

January 25th: that's Part X's release date. After many months discussing with others and pondering how to approach release dates, I've decided to give this method a try. Here goes nothing!

This date was developed with the following factors in mind:

  • Remaining rendering of scenes + sex animations
  • Remaining writing (dialogue/hardcoding)
  • Post work including graphics and music/audio additions to sun/dance/end segs
  • An absurdly large time cushion slapped on, ensuring if the game is released on a day other than January 25th, it's BEFORE rather than after
The primary goal I seek to accomplish with this date is to exceed expectation. Since last year's beginnings, the opposite has been true with most releases falling 24-48 hours after the given release date due to a conservative, naive estimate on my part. If I'm going to miss the mark for Part X, as in release on a date other than January 25th, it will now be before rather than after.

Heave ho! As always, I will continue to update you weekly on Part X's development and sneak in a few secrets, plus all the character polls, pinups, previews and other stragglers I post. For many, the mentioned weekly content doesn't have an equivalent value to what they pledge; if you also feel this way, I fully support rescinding/holding on to your pledge until you personally feel I can provide that value. For many, understandably so, that's when Part X is released.

Whether you decide to stick around for the preparty, for every last firework or show up the day of, I can't wait to share with you the Act I finale and what it's become. You've offered me both your support and patience, allowing me to flesh the dance out with the amount of content a finale truly deserves. I thank you for that gift once again, hoping you'll join me on the dance floor with a pretty lady or two. :]

Part X Content!



One of my favorite parts of both collection and choice-based games is the totals screen. For this game specifically, it will tally the many variables you've collected throughout the story, such as relationship points and pivotal decisions. Those seeking to review their actions at the end of Act I, both depraved and virtuous, will be thoroughly amused!

Of course, the particular ending you choose will directly tie into the totals screen. Some are hesitant to move from the platonic relationship phase and will aptly receive confirmation of that when finishing Act I. Of course, it's never too late to move from one phase to another, perhaps if those with uncertain thoughts change their mind next act.

Others, likely in the majority based off polling, will be advancing to the romantic phase with the main pairings in both campaigns. Both Act I's ending and Act II's beginning will reflect that decision, Act I's totals screen giving you a unique title describing your actions/relationship with each main lady. Along with the endings, I encourage you to explore the various total changes caused by your mingling in the story!

Let's switch gears a bit. Tomorrow, I'll be posting more CE Previews (previews of future in-game CE content) of busts. They'll explore both ends of the spectrum, regarding the gals you care most about.



Later this week, I'll be firing up the pinup factory again; the polling I conducted decided The Matriarch & The Deviant to be the priority pairing, so that'll be coming up first! Since the pairing following that is already assumed, I will throw up another CE Club poll to decide what the third pinup pack will be. Don't miss it if you enjoy having a hand in choosing naked ladies! :]

That Milfy City scenes was probably my best VN sex scene ive ever seen...

What's the point of customization and making the Mother asian if we don't have sex scenes similar to this gem?

View attachment 159135

What's depressing is I have to render my own sex scenes for a release because none of the dutch-angles, voyeur and boom-and-zoom shots can satisfy my 40 bucks worth of disappointment. Sigh.

can´t deny the fact, that I´m disappointed. He gave the impression, that we´re near an update with his tracker. Well, he lacks transparency, also with his newly bought graphic cards, no pictures for proof on his site.

@ Mods @muttdoggy
I suggest that it´s better to close this thread. F95zone is a pirate-forum, but it is also a marketing Tool for developers. I don´t think it is good to give Kyle a platform here until he´ll release something, because words mean nothing until proven. So my suggestion is, to close this thread until the 25 of january (I think it would be best to do this on many games, whose dev lack similar to this one (games, who are onhold, abandoned etc.).

I have to admit that the bold and Italic phrases that I pointed out in your post are 100% true.

Did anyone else think "This has to be a joke right?" Just an elaborate troll post, due to the utter ridiculousness of the release date. I had to give it a proper read through just to be sure it was legit, as I normally just skip through his verbal diarrhoea these days. Alas no, he has actually given himself an almost 4 month window to get this update released! 4 freaking months?! At this point I honestly think this guy has the work ethic of a house cat. This nearly 4 month deadline proves it imo. I just hope, that for the patrons and supporters that were a bit on the fence about this guy, this was a final straw and they now pull their support, as this developers attitude and behaviour shouldn't be rewarded.

I promised myself I wouldn't comment on this thread again until I had something positive to say but this latest dev post blew my mind. Just when I was allowing myself to get excited about the release being seemingly close on the horizon, the dev pulls out the rug from beneath our feet again. The sad thing is, I'm clearly a glutton for punishment as I stick around... At least there's the next Captain's Log to look forward to XD

I was thinking like this have to be a joke. And although my English isn't the best, i tried to read between the lines where he stated 25. January as release date, but then there is this bottom line where he wrote Part X but there is no confirmation that it will be released by 25 January. You never know with this dev. I mean for 2 weeks he/she claimed Part X would be released by the end of the week. Personally i just left his/hers discord group, got tired of his/hers lies and excuses.
