The Steam version will be updated every two Patreon updates, and probably every one update when I start the endings. That means I'll update it when the current update is out. It might take some time between the Patreon release and the Steam release though, since I need to change a few things here and there.
Oh cool. I guess a delay is expected if the versions arent 1 to 1.

As for steam thing. Well I guess things aren't as severe as I thought, at least not yet. I imagine games already on their might be allowed, but new entires are probably getting more scrutiny.

Oh good, someone here said the updates for the Steam version was every fifth update and I was thinking "But N_Taii said every second update" so it's good to get that reconfirmed. :p

Have you ever considered releasing on GOG? I don't know how they would handle early access but I do recall them kicking up a bit of a stink about the adult games situation by putting a bunch on sale. If they have early access it might be easier to deal with them in terms of updating since they're anti-DRM.
Haven't looked at GOG to be honest, but they don't seem to be a very popular option for adult games for now, so they might not be worth the hassle of going through the loops just to have my game on there.

This reminds me that there was a guy who was doing a manual translation of HC2 into Korean, I don't know if he finally finished doing it, but if he did it is a great merit for a game with too much text.

You know I love art style for HC3 and HC2 but I wonder what it be like if people still did 90s anime drawings style right now instead of the current modern style I’m interested what the heroines for HC4 will look like.

I don't know how goofy a pair of glasses would look on this sprite or how much of a headache would it be to have a girl who's constantly wearing one, but i'd LOVE to see a girl with glasses in HC4, especially one that is made in DyuN's style.

I don't think glasses would be too hard, but they'd have to be frameless to adequately maintain facial expressions.

Don’t two characters in HC3 Have glasses on?
I believe the one bartender with giant tits and a void where her brain should be has them and I think also the former head maid at the castle who now works for the duke who also is basically a human cow has them too. But they're side characters and thus their expressions are less important.

Proof of Life #288: The week is done! (in-game, I mean) + some small HC4 stuff
5 days ago

Hello everynyan, how are you doing in this somewhat decent morning/afternoon/evening? It’s me, your friendly neighborhood N_Taii, here to deliver some news about HC3, among other things.

So, I’m almost done with the “week at the manor” section of the game, and I’ve added all 7 short events that will take place from Lundath morning to Fridath morning (one example in the screenshot above), tested the majority of them, and I’m about to develop the very last event to conclude everything.

Then, there’ll be another short segment leading to the last scene of the update, and I’ll be done with the story part of this update. Almost. I still have an extra scene to add and I’m not 100% sure what it’ll be about. I had originally planned to have Shila from last update be the main focus, but I decided against it for several reasons I cannot really explain here.

Anyway, this update should be relatively lengthy all things considered. I cannot yet give a release date, but I’ve decided to cancel home workouts for this week to increase focus on game development instead, so I’ll hopefully be able to give you a release window next week.

Btw, I’ve also added some more sprites for the new HC4 sprites. It’s not much honestly, and the ¾ view won’t be usable (it’s just something the artist decided to add for the fun of it), but I should have the whole walking sprite sheet in about 2 weeks if all goes well.

That’s it for this week! I’ll see you again next Monday!

Thank you for reading, and have a wonderful week!

I like the HC4 sprites, but I think the artist is going to have to be careful. Using HC2 and 3 as a guide N_Taii typically works in three body types. Basically small, medium, and large. The sizes in HC3 obviously being smaller curves for Lily, medium for Rose, and large for Haylen and Cyanna. If the sprites shown are the medium size then I worry for the large as this sprite already verging on kind of having the posture of a velociraptor.

Honestly, I've been thinking about it. I couldn't never get anyone to translate such a huge game without ending up in financial ruin. Besides, I've bought game off DLSite in Japanese and played them in Japanese, but it turned out the whole game was
simply horribly translated, yet it had good rating.
On Steam, however, MTL translations seem to draw bad reviews, especially on story-heavy games, so I'll have to be careful about that^^

Yeah, I kinda want to see it as well. Either go for the stacked teacher with glasses look, or something completely opposed. Haven't thought about it in details though.

Yeah, I believe the base reference I gave the artist was of the HC3 sprite for the "medium" boob size, so they might be slightly too big in the new ones, but it's something that shouldn't be too hard too adjust if needed.

Yes, translating a game as big as HC3 can't be cheap. I understand that DLsite has its own translation team that has been tasked with doing official translations of several games from Japanese to English, but I don't know if they offer to do it from English to Japanese (I imagine they do), but again, I don't know how expensive it could be.

For now, I think the only way for the Japanese, Chinese, or Korean public to enjoy HC3 in their native languages is through an MTL or having someone do a manual translation. But that would be something that would take a long time, easily up to a year of work without exaggeration. I myself participated in the manual translation of a game from English to Spanish, and although there were four of us, it took us practically a year and a half to finish translating the entire game.

It's not about the tits, it's the posture as a whole. The boobs are what I would say the right size, they look proportionate to the frame, but her pelvis dips back the 3/4ths position sprite in a way that could wind up with an odd looking walk cycle.

As for translating the game into other languages... you could try running it through MTL and then maybe seeing if you could get someone to proof read. Maybe proof reading would be cheaper than full translation? Or when you go back to Japan you could make friends with some very generous pervs. :p

It will 100% get translated by someone once it's finished, hell i'm pretty sure that there already is translation for all 3 of those languages that you mentioned we just don't know about them.
Last year, around February i wanna say, i saw an AI version of the HC2 portraits on google and it lead me to this Korean website where people were praising HC2 as like God's gift to humanity and a worthy successor to the NTRPG series, and there was this person who really did not fuck with the artstyle of HC2, and so they decided to "fix" it by remaking them with AI. I specifically remember the post where they describe the original portaits as "yankee stlye" which i'm not gonna like i found immensely funny at the time, but i'm getting off track, long story short, that Korean site had a LOT of Henteria posts, and i wanna say around half of them were about people translating HC2. I can't find the website for the life of me now, but even back then they were actively translating the game and so i have no doubts in my mind that HC3 is gonna have a translated version in no time as well, especially with AI getting better and better each day.

I think I just commented something about that in a previous comment, but I didn't remember that they "fixed" the character portraits in HC2 because they looked too "yankee style" I don't know what "yankee" aspect the Koreans have seen in the HC2 characters, but in part I'm glad that N_taii has his followers in Asia (especially Korea, China and Japan) because they are a very strong audience, although somewhat difficult to satisfy, and N_taii is achieving it for now haha

"Yankee" is a sometimes derogatory slang term for Americans in South Korea. So what they probably mean is that the art style looks like a western take on anime and they're not wrong.
