Am i just freaky or did i get the weird impression you can have sex with Dad/Mom based on the trailer and list of the main characters? Like why introducing all the sex-able character then put your parents on the background? lmao

Damn this game looks perfect. But it's sad to know that it will just end up like other games where it gets abandoned midway (cause damn it must've taken so much work to get just this first part done) or on an endless loop with biased content based on what's more profitable. But really congrats for the effort, it actually caught me by surprise with the quality of the game.

Hey again, everyone!
Things have been going really well this month. The team has made some big strides on the Welcome Week Update, and we’re excited to share where we’re at!

1. Writing and Artwork – Finished!
The writing is officially locked, and all of the art for the update is complete! That includes animations, character art, backgrounds, and all the little graphics that tie it all together.



2. Scene Assembly
We’re now in one of the final stages of development process - assembling the scenes! All the dialogue, artwork, and animations are being brought together, and it’s really starting to feel like the experience we've been envisioning. Here are a few previews!






3. Narrative Path (NO SPOILERS)
Here’s a peek at the narrative structure of the update. Hopefully this provides a good understanding of it's size compared to the demo! And don't worry, there are no spoilers <3



4. Poses
Fresh new poses that will be in the update!



5. Room Customization
The room customization system is up and running. Here's a little sneak peek at how it'll work. We can’t wait to see how you decide to decorate your dorm!



6. HookUp App
Here is a first look at the HookUp app. It'll appear briefly in this update, but will become a much larger part of the game in our first Feature update. We're excited to share more details about it in the future.



7. Card Updates
We’ve done some reworks to the cards to make them cleaner and more consistent.



8. Github Setup
On the technical side: Kicks set up a new GitHub repository and workflow for us. In simple terms, this means the team can now work on the game’s code together much more smoothly. Instead of passing files back and forth, we can update, track, and edit code collaboratively in one shared space. It’ll make development faster and way easier going forward.

9. New Wallpaper
A brand new Edmund wallpaper is now available for Junior and Senior Tier supporters on Patreon, with a new one coming soon!



10. Roadmap
If you missed it, here’s another look at the Edgefield Roadmap. It breaks down the future path of our game!



That’s everything for this month’s update. Thank you so much for your support <3 It really means the world to us and keeps this project moving forward. We can’t wait for you to dive into Welcome Week soon!

Thank you!

-Gopher & Dr. Bird

Hey everyone! I’m excited to share/introduce the new game my dev partner and I have been working on - Edgefield.

Edgefield is a mix of the adult visual novel, dating sim and point-and-click adventure genres with a wide and colorful cast of characters to meet, befriend, and romance (in fully animated scenes) as you make your way through your freshman year at Edgefield University. Whether you choose to play as a male or female protagonist, you’ll have the freedom to pursue relationships with characters of any gender, with a goal of making this a deeply personal and inclusive experience.

*ML/AI is used as a tool to assist with some of the art while other art is done completely by hand. No other areas of the game are made using ML/AI.

The Story (So Far)
So, here’s the setup: You’re 18 years old and on your way to Edgefield University, an expensive, prestigious school you’re honestly kinda shocked you got into. You’re interested in photography, but are undecided on what you’re going to study. On your ride there, you’re accompanied by your dad, his new gf, Sasha and her daughter, Emma.

Once you arrive, you move into your dorm room and meet your new floormates. You can choose to flirt or make friends with any and all of them — totally up to you. We want to give you total freedom in who you pursue without locking you out of content if you’re not into a specific character. Everything is optional.




Who Are We
Gopher (Lead Dev / Artist) - I’ve worked as a game dev for years and have made a lot of games. I've always had a sort of quiet passion for adult games, but this is my first time making one.

Dr. Bird (Writer, She/Her) - Hi! I've been writing professionally for a while now, and am a long time lover of fan-fiction and graphic novels. When Gopher approached me about working on Edgefield I was most excited about the inclusion of a female lead character. That is something I think is HEAVILY missing from the AVN genre, and I am just the gal to fill that hole.





Some of the Main Characters

View attachment 4635877

(In Order)
  • Dad – Dorky, well-meaning guy. Tries his best.
  • Sasha - Your dad’s new girlfriend. Trying awkwardly to bond with you.
  • Emma - Sasha's daughter. Does not like you. In her Junior year at Edgefield.
  • Theo - Intelligent and encouraging. Future president (probably). Studying Political Science.
  • Peter – Horny class clown. Always joking. Studying Music Theory.
  • Quinn – Chill skater girl. Gives you shit, but in a fun way. Undecided Major.
  • Penelope – Shy gamer. Loves anime. Classic. Studying Game Design.
  • Jun – Cheerful goth. Artsy and open-minded. Studying Fine Art.
  • Victoria – Influencer. Model. Cam-girl. Studying Economics.
  • Jada – History buff. Into archaeology and local myths and legends. Studying History.
  • Lucia – Sweet, bookish, and probably too pure for this group. Studying Biology.
  • Sunny – Giant nerd. Total sweetheart. Knows computers inside out. Studying Computer Science
  • Kerry – Confident film geek. Big horror movie fan. Studying Filmmaking.
  • Trent – Football player. Jock with a surprising soft side. Studying Business.
  • Edmund – Romantic English exchange student. Poet type. Studying literature.

Gameplay Systems
(Not all gameplay mechanics listed are in the first release)

Open World, Sandbox Map - We want Edgefield to feel like a place you can actually explore. Plenty of locations, random encounters, characters with daily schedules, that kind of thing.

Romantic / Friendship Routes - Every major character has their own story arc with either a Romantic or Friendship route and you’re able to change your mind about which of these relationships you want with each of them.

Room Customization - You'll have your own dorm room and will be able to deck it out however you like. Posters, furniture, weird junk you collect after completing quests — it'll feel like your space.

View attachment 4636041


Booty Call Mechanic - If you hit it off with someone, you'll eventually be able to invite them over for some late-night fun. Gotta build up that relationship first, though. This will serve as one of the ways to view repeatable sex scenes.


View attachment 4635995


Jobs (For Money) - We’re planning some part-time job options that let you earn cash / meet new people around town.


Studying (For Grades) *Still workshopping this idea* - Tests happen every 7 in-game days. You’ll need to study a few times each week to keep your grades up. Studying is just a quick 3-second montage or something (no player input needed) that progresses the in-game time by one.

You’ll have 21 time slots per week, and maybe 3-5 of those will need to go toward studying if you want to keep your grades up. Passing tests comes with perks, but failing won’t ruin your game — you'll just have a different experience.

Eventually there will be ways to study more efficiently (meaning you’ll be able to study less per week), and ways to get away without studying at all. This is meant to be a fun resource management system, but not something that is overly burdensome.



Phone (For Nudes) - A cell phone with a contacts menu, texting, a photo gallery and blah blah blah etc. It’s a phone.

Collectible Trading Cards - Hot trading cards hidden around campus. Because who doesn’t love monster girls.

Planned Tags / Kinks - (all optional)

What's Next?
Like I mentioned at the top, the first release drops this Friday, March 14th at 8pm ET for Patreon subs and next Friday, March 21st at 8pm ET for everyone else.

The first release is basically "Day One" at Edgefield — finding your room, making friends, figuring out who you’re interested in and seeing what this whole college thing is about. It’s about laying the groundwork for a lot more drama, romance, and horny shit down the line. We’re planning regular content updates after launch with more story progression, updates to gameplay mechanics and obviously more animations.

Mobile version - We’re already working on getting a mobile version working, so expect that very soon after the initial release.

We’re also very interested in your feedback, so please let us know what you think of the game and what you might like to see in a future update.

The text is distracting because the font color is too dark, and if there was an option to lower the graphics or resolution, or set the frame rate to 30 or 60 fps, that would be good.
