Hey guys,

I've finished all the Steam stuff. Trailer was done a week ago, then spend some time creating a prettified 76 page walkthrough. But while the visual part of the trailer is done the score is not. Singer is busy till late September, so the Steam release is on hold until probably October.

In the meantime, I've started production on Ep12. You can see some scenes from the opening up there.
So, that's it. Steam version of Ep11 is coming some time in October. Ep12 is in production. All the improvements I made in Ep11 for the Steam version will also be released here as an updated Patreon version once its live over there as well as the prettified walkthrough.

Thanks bunch,

Az.

It's a pity that this event in the water park was supposed to be hot and come out a year ago.

Good news bois, it only took 13 months. But he's finally BEGUN making Ep12...

I still can't believe that shit man...

I would LOVE to see the community reaction if say, DrPinkCake decided to take a 13 month break off from making season 4 after he drops Episode 12 and season 3 is finished. Would be insane to witness ngl...

Overall Meh ... for all that that waiting time until something new is released (mini B. Episodes don't even count, i just hate this wasted time) and now a steam release ... Na Bro, not interested to support such a Work Style ... The VN isn't bad, but the Release schedules have some serious probs. I don't got the feeling it's worth a Sup and yeah watched this here since begining.

No, since the steam version and the bonus episode are now finished, he will only start working on EP12 right now

I'm not a fan of 12 or more months developing cycles ...
But let's give Caesar what is Caesar's

just to put things on perspective "Badik Season 1" it's more than double the size of 11 episodes of Halfway House but ... let's put aside file size 'cause fidelity can take a lot of space .
let's compare content !
"Badik season 1" dwarf completely 11 episodes of Halfway House too, the amount of characters , main story , side stories and the kinda there mini games , if AZ try to go for something of that scope , we all should be looking in the obituaries for Avns because if doing 30 minutes of content for episode made AZ depress that scope will make AZ go mad.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there any way of turning off the cloud effect when he's thinking? And has this seriously been going for six years?

 

[Night Hacker]

Just deleted all my saved games for this and started replaying this from the start again, with no mods. Been a couple years since I last played this. Been fun. I think one of my favourite scenes which always makes me laugh is the following one with Ash... I am a guy who dislikes cum scenes in games, but this one I missed it, and went back and replayed just to see it again.

I've honestly not thought about removing it... until now. Yeah, it annoys me as well. It's mainly just an overlay image in the game->gui folder named "innertought.png" (yeah, spelling error on their filename). I just got done loading it into an image editor and erased the cloudy parts... I'll attach it here, just replace the one in the game\gui folder with this (back up the original to be safe)...

Thanks, but I haven't got a GUI folder or that file.

 

[Night Hacker]

Thanks, but I haven't got a GUI folder or that file.

OH right!!! I forgot. They are all in RPA files. BUT, if you create a GUI folder, and put this in it, the game should use it instead. It uses files that exist outside the RPA (an ARCHIVE of all the files basically) if they exist. So, create a folder named "gui" inside the "game" folder, then put this file inside of it and it should use it instead.

I use rpaExtract to extract all the files out of the RPA files. Once you extract them, you can delete the RPA files and the game will use the extracted files. But... try that out anyhow, I don't see why it shouldn't work anyhow.

This is my game directory after I extracted all the files from the RPA then deleted them. Note the "gui" folder. That's where that file should be. The "Night Hacker" folder is just some of my own personal mods I use with all games...

 

[Night Hacker]

I'm replaying Halfway House from the start after a couple years away from it, and I just noticed that Luis got Ashley's name tattood on him.

Ironically, this is VERY similar to what I done in real life! I was in love with this woman so much, that one night, while drinking with friends, a native woman I knew tattoo'd the woman's name on my arm. When I showed it to her after that, she wasn't too happy as we were just friends. Bad idea? I ended up marrying her a year and a half later and remained married until she died. It's the only tattoo I ever got. But man, the similarities to this story just hit me. Except my tattoo is on my arm with her name. It seems funny in the game, but... I actually totally understand it. (I just noticed he ALSO had an amateur do his too! LMAO, just call me Luis! I also had rippling stomach muscles after getting out of the military the year before... they still ripple, just not quite the same, LMAO)

Whats the bonus ep. about? i just saw the main story and i loved it, the AVN actually has story, and thats what i love when i try to read something, good writing btw, mostly on the officer, that scene in the cafe was super cool backstory.

It's all about milking and stretching the developing time of this scam project into unbelievable lengths.

Yes, yes. But other than whining about things, can you actually answer the question, please? I only just now noticed the bonus episodes, and I've been playing the main game since the beginning. So I'm very curious how the bonus episodes tie into (are adjacent to, or whatever) the primary plot of the game.

. So I'm very curious how the bonus episodes tie into (are adjacent to, or whatever) the primary plot of the game.

It doesn't. The last one is basically the MC and the three girls in a heroic fantasy setting and an excuse to have them in sexy armors. You have one where Ashley and Emilie switched body, a future where the MC married Emilie but is unhappy and keep cheating on her with Ashley, Ashley doing sexy cam and a thrilling one where Ashley's grandfather and his bodyguard bang the maid. I can't even remember the rest.

Thanks. That's all I was asking. Since I hadn't played any, I was wanting to know what to expect. I appreciate it.

76 page walkthrough xD gtfo. No way you need more than 5 pages for this game. Also, developer thinking people want a .pdf walkthrough for a renpy game need a slap on the back of their head. Just make it an ingame one. Not only is it FAR more convinient but most likely it's easier to make as well.
