I played an earlier release of this over 2 years ago (July 2019) and have only come back just now to see what all of the glowing comments were about. What I'm finding is a sandbox where locations and time periods still feel like an empty desert. This thing should have been converted to a linear VN. At the very least if keeping the sandbox around, there should be a journal so the player can see what next events that haven't been seen are available with a shortcut to take us there.

What content is there is excellent, but the sandbox desert takes away from the playing experience, and gives the impression that this is more like a 0.1 than something three years old.

well to see what's available just have to visit everywhere and yes it's tedious.

this got rebooted quite a while ago so that's 1 reason why not that advanced.

So are you planning to implement some new characters?
And did you made some progress the last three weeks?
Yep, but it is just filler characters. They will appear only on "family trip".
And yep, I made a lot of progress. I will make a post about this tomorrow, I think.

Yep, I agree with you. I also noticed that the world is kinda empty now. I'm working on this. Also, I'm working on implementing quest log too (journal). So it will all be fixed... (someday):HideThePain:

I had a bunch of Tiffany events that weren't unlocked yet.
Finished the content for Melanie apparently and now I can't access the house so I don't know how to get access to any of Tiffany's events.

Anyone know a fix for this?

What events do you mean? I'm asking because all events are through Melanie right now. You can't skip Tiffany's events.

There are 5 that all say "ACTION: "UNKNOWN."

Worth mentioning that I used a save from May of last year

Progress of the update 09/24/2021
!9 .png


Hi! Sorry about not posting anything for a long time. I haven't been sitting on my ass and doing nothing these days, so don't worry. I actually managed to make a lot of progress on the update!
First of all, I finished all the new locations and characters so now I'm already fully working on pictures for the events.
I finished Mark's father country house
You can take a look at the house where Melanie, Mark and Tiffany will be living during the family trip. As I was saying before, the atmosphere is very important for me so I did a lot of work on making it authentic, creating a sweet vibe of the countryside.
At first it looked like this:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Now it looks like this:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
Also, I created kitchen and other places for events. Here is an example:

Standard one:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
New one:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
New characters:
I finished working on all new characters. I always work a lot on making a character look authentic so that they can convey his personality in the right way.
Uncle
At first I had an idea to make him look kinda like this:
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
I thought that most people who plays adult games imagine having an uncle as an old fat and perverted. So I wanted to try something new.
But I changed my mind because I thought that this uncle will look more like a gachi meme and that he doesn't convey emotions that I need, when he's looking like that.
So I changed my mind. I decided that uncle will look like a good hearted retired old man with a big belly and I think I conveyed it pretty well.
Last days I also managed to do a lot of progress on writing events and I finished working on the text for the first half of the update.
As for the pictures, mostly, I was focused on boys peeping at the Tiffany event.
I also started to send texts on translations.
Anyway, that's it for the progress of the update. You can take at the progress in more details in my

Yep, on this picture it is kinda look like this. :LOL: Maybe it's because of lighting or something like that, but in reality it looks pretty good. But thank you for noticing.:D

What's with the overwhelmingly yellow/orange tint? It didn't use to be like that during earlier versions.
