Working on the next content patch that should come out next friday. It is going much faster than I predicted so probably I will have time to sit on music for it. No promises though.
The issue with music is that I don't like half measures. Meaning that I want my music to be very situational and being part of the story varying a lot in single scene. Imho perfection of such music was always for me Ace Attorney from DS/3DS.
Obviously second component here is time. For above to be realized correctly I have to think about arrangement, sound level, when it cuts and when it switches off gradualy etc. Otherwise music would be simple and sometimes "wrong" as it does not fit scene correctly.
I think you were right in wanting to get more meat of the story out first, music is nice but by no means a deal breaker.
If you already have an update by this friday then you are doing well.

Well... I did both. I am sitting right now finishing adding sounds and music to my game. Should be done today. Finished work on new events on sunday which was much faster than I expected. Mostly due to less work IRL.
Honestly didn't expect to implement music AND sound so fast. I prepared it for something like 4-5 patches later but I just started working on it after animation work for 0.40 and it went very well.
Friday schedule is still in place. I will probably start working on writing new chapters for next update. I'd rather not place new chapter into 0.40 for now. I like to pack few events into one arc and deliver them as one.
Event wise:
0.39[20 events] ---> 0.40[25 events] so about 25% more events than in prologue.
From my measurements about 30-40minutes though it depends on C&C.

One advise: give the players the possibility to change mc´s name.

I officially confirm game now has both sound and music. No voices though for now. Though I think about it.
It will be available with next content update.
Which is why next content update version number changes from v0.40 to v0.41.
Release tomorrow.
There isnt any in the game yet, it doesnt need to be added. Its in the planned tags tho.

Even
Yea... maybe, but you don't need to fuck your mom in an incest game before the tag gets added. A devs intent is enough. Better to be upfront and get it over with, especially with divisive tags. Attract your target audience early in development and warn people with zero interest in the ntr genre. Less drama. Less repeated questions.
But... yea. You do you. I've already spent too much time talkin about a game I won't play.

Sorry. You need to start new game. I added additional C&C to prologue which has impact on new content I added. This warning was on my patreon but i forgot to add it to download section here.
edit: added Warning near download section.

Hi, thanks for input. The reason I went with this artstyle is precisely because I wanted high quality animations that can be made easily vs typical "wooden" I see in other titles. The plan is for every erotic scene to include animations and thanks to my choice they can be made efficiently so I can produce a lot of content pretty fast with quality bar I want to hit.
Gallery is indeed in plans. Though I would wish to implement instead "flowchart" where players would be able to replay scenes and watch individual events rather than just individual animation. I think context to scenes is important and makes them hotter. After all no one would play adult VN if there is hentai or porn sites where you can go down to action in seconds. In those games each event is point on map that can be freely replayed or story started from that point with choices made with last save. My focus right now is on meat of game before I Implement it.
My favourite flowchart is in [ANIM] games. My other wish for game but that is very very very far away would be multiple POV much like in [ANIM] games.
Weirdly just today I think I found a method to get raytracing into VAM and I am currently researching it it is viable.
Depends what you mean. Game is around 2,5 hour long right now if you don't skip or read really fast. When it comes to erotic content. 3 sex scenes and 2 implied sex scenes. That being said I finished prologue of game which was fairly light in erotic content and now I am making main game which will have pretty much 1 to few sex scenes every update.
Schedule for releases for now is every two weeks but I am not sure about being able to keep that schedule as a lot depend on my IRL work.

Yeah I agree with that replaying events is a good idea. because yeah watching the animations without the context of the overall scene does feel pointless. I haven't actually heard of a flowchat but lots of VN's usally allow you to replay the entire scene/event and not just having animations being replayed. I like to know what content I missed based on choices. or is this more of a kinetic novel?
I hate those stuff janky animations also. I appreciate good erotic scenes in a VN with quality animations.
