Hi, guys.
This week, I started off fixing a couple of scenes that I wasn't happy with. One of them was when Kaylah first visits Charlotte's house. It was rushed and badly done, but hopefully improved now.
I also made a start on writing the script for v0.14. I said I wasn't going to start on the new content yet, but I was feeling excited about it and eager to get started.
Most of my time, however, has been spent on reworking Suzi's past scenes. She will become more involved in the story soon, so I want to fix things before that happens.
Finally, a reminder that I am away on holiday for the next week. After I return, I will start posting the usual progress report so you can track the progress I'm making on v0.14.
Thanks for your support,
DB​

there’s a lot of scenes I thought was rushed. Is DB going back to fill in all of them? I hope the first MC guarding Charlotte to an event is one of them. That and the rescue of Emma scene.



also very glad DB subs counts increased to 850-900. It was stubbornly around 700-750 for months.

Thanks, wizgset.

Time is a constraint, but I will try and fix anything that needs fixing. So, if you have any more feedback, I'll gladly consider it.

To be honest, I was thinking about Susie's words about what could be done that the main character refused and his friend went to work for a place and then from the first day there was corruption and podsmaotrivaniya and all that stuff it would be cool to see such a game

This character is very attractive. So far, though, she's been rather one-dimensional as a raging biotch. Interested to see where the character goes... in my humble opinion she could really use a tad more complexity.

Who have compressed version?

Be careful with suggestions about story - a game which is susceptible to suggestion by committee will end up satisfying no-one. You may already know this - and technical advice can only help, but be wary and stick to your original vision. You are building (also have built) a unique and compelling story which has gained popularity. Please don't waver, you are doing it right, remain committed and see this through. Keep the advice for other stories/games/VNs for the future.

There will not be any incest in the game.

Glad to see that I'm not the only one who thinks Suzi has been neglected by our dev pal.

I think one of the problems with her story is that she didn't want help even though she probably needed it more than anybody else in the VN. She sees a helping hand as a slap in the face. It is a quality that she shares with her mother but Charli had Lucy to talk some sense into her. Her friend in the locker room tried with Suzi but as they say in Spain she has the ears of a donkey. Suzi's story has been spinning its wheels because she is intractable and truculent. Until the dev gives her some character development she is going to remain in this limbo.

I think dev said he is going to change some parts of the older chapters to make suzi more involved, or "fix" her or something. I tried to find the post but alas my search was fruitless

Thanks, keefer.

Don't worry, the story is basically written and I'm not really seeking suggestions regarding that (although I will always consider them). I'm looking to fix content that is already there, but which has been badly done. And while I generally know what needs fixing, it's always useful to hear others' feedback too.

That is another reason this dev is one of the best
I have seen countless games suffer late in development because the devs had no idea of where to take the story
or things like that.
I have seen some truly ridiculous things lol
But here the dev obviously has a clear vision of where the story is going, I really like that.

Hi, guys.
As I said in the last update, from now on I will be posting the usual progress report, and preview images for $5+ patrons.
However, as I'm still reworking some things, I'll only post two preview images per week for now.
Thanks,
DB

Really thought that We saving Emma from the Police Chief would be the breaking point where our actions would overwhelm her biases and she would soften up, i was terribly disappointed instead.

 

[Joshy92]

I really like that Emma is a slow burn romance
The payoff at the end is always better when they are.

I don't know. Emma's acting like an 14yrs old girl. She's clearly not mature. MC is an adult. I can't see how a man of integrity and with morale standards like MC could consider a relationship with a child. Her body might be old enough but her mind isn't.
