The fact that half the update is going to be Nikki/Cara content might be a spoiler in itself. Because how dire can Erynn's situation be, when hanging out with Nikki/Cara is the big thing?
That's a good point, can't be too bad, even on a "friendship" Erynn run, it's hard to explain fun and games with Nikki if Erynn is badly hurt, in a coma or something worst...
Technically we are still on the friday right? So she should be ok under her mom's care by saturday...

Maybe a choice between staying with Erynn the whole day or hanging with Nikki/Cara would be interesting.

And affects wether Nikki/Cara come back later.

Progress Update - Episode 10



Well... This is going to be a big update. I didn't really want to make big updates again, but there's no other way around it this episode. And I'm not going to cut scenes anymore as I did previously.

There will be lots of Nikki/Cara content again since it's their last day in Madison Springs and you probably won't see them again soon-ish. For the people who aren't on their route, the update will be cut in half. And you'll miss some "interesting information".

Still working on the Saturday scenes. It's a very very long day. I'm working on the last Nikki scene at the moment and that will be done in a few days. But then there's the whole Cara route that I need to start. And Cara needs some love since I somewhat neglected her last episode. Plus some small transition scenes in between. Hopefully, they don't turn into a big scene like last time. I had already written down an idea, but I'll scratch it for now. Maybe I'll add it once I've finished all the "planned" content.

Thankfully Sunday will be a shorter day.

But Monday... Oh boy... Possibly even bigger than Saturday. Lots of content, but I can't wait to start working on those scenes. Especially one with a certain character.

On another note. I will be gone for about 2 weeks during the summer. Probably end of July/start of August. So around that time, there won't be any progress update news.
Interesting. Sounds like the next update is still a long ways off.

It's cool to get more Cara/Nikki content, but it's hard to see how that can happen given the situation with Erynn. I'm also surprised they're getting two heavy episodes in a row; even if they're going to be offscreen for a while, I don't think the feast or famine approach is all that great. I'd say it would be better to avoid overexposure now and add some long-distance relationship material for them in the next several episodes. Obviously that's not ideal, but it still seems like the lesser evil. And it would give them a somewhat unique role going forward.

I just hope the MC will be able to sort out Cara/Nikki's part in any relationship polygon by the time they leave. I don't want to have to keep adding branches when they finally return.


so we can expect the next update around late august/early september if we're lucky
I very much doubt it. Nyx has spent ~2 months working on Saturday and she still isn't finished. Monday is potentially even larger, and there will be a two week break while Nyx is away. Unless she changes her mind and splits this episode in two (or is vastly overestimating the work involved) I'd say late September is the earliest to expect Episode 10.

He might be talking about the yellow empty crate of the first pic, that's definitely made for carrying beers.
24 of them to be exact, and of the big old school 600 ml bottles.
Not where i live.
They are Milk-Crates.
Use to get them from the Dairy's to build stage drum-risers several times.

Bottled milk(Glass), is not only is sent to Dairy's here.
BTW, where can i buy beer in a Milk-Crate?
Please, take a picture and share.

Would like to see this, sincerely.

They are crates, not just milk crates or beer crates. Can carry pretty much everything that is stored in a bottle and even used a bench (upside down, obviously) when you're drunk enough.

Someone already beat me to the picture, so i won't bother... but yeah in Brazil that's a beer crate.
It's becoming a rarity, beer in cans(of various sizes) and long necks are way more popular these days, but you still can buy them in select places.

The Nikki situation of staying away is starting to feel forced, specially now that the solution (move in with your dad) seems fairly obvious.
I guess she needs to tell her mom what she's planning and pack for the move... but i really don't see the point of "probably won't see them again in a while".
I suspect this is a pretty simple combination of the cast being too big for the level of detail Nyx puts in, and every scene with Nikki/Cara needing to be done three times. Unfortunately something has to give.

Interesting to see this for myself and others whom haven't in our life.
Have never really been into drinking but still enjoy learning about different marketing, history and customs.
Seeing that picture is a real treat for some of us whom never seen that before.

Some older shops/markets/stores are fun to explore.
As long as ya don't get suckerd' into clothes shopping with a group of models.
DO NOT walk away, RUN!!!!

It's not cracked up to what You may THINK it is.
Experience it a few times and You may wish ya Never did.
No disrespect intended, to ANYONE.

The gap between looking for her on that day and later that evening(let alone the next day).
Should be significantly eventful.
Many possibilities to occur as well as monumental opportunities for content(knowing the past, will go unused but who knows).

Can totally comprehend why info on any content related to Erynn would be to big a spoiler atm.
For those whom have little/nothing to do with Cara or Niki's routes, it's weak sauce.
Least the work that's being done on the environment is a good achievement and well worth sharing.

Seriously, many VN's have little to nothing in the background with filler store mannequins and i get that.
Render size, processing time, resources ect ect ect ect.... gotta be taxing to a degree or few to say the least.
Perhaps future endeavors turn out better, can only wait to see or ... not.

Alternatively, if you download the compressed version that was made by FAPmaster369, there are instructions on how to build your own for Windows/Linux/Mac. Same idea with what cxx said, just with elaborated steps.

In case you can't find it, it is here.

I donwloaded the game be coincident to check. Well I have to say this VN is one of the best ones Ive seen. This story and the twists are brilliant. Real good and solid story writing. Plus the characters are very nice. Not the typical allways same stuff or backgrounds...it is really unique.

The story sucked me really in so I hope there is more content coming up soon. And thanks for that work so far. For me a real juwel here.
